Organizations are going through moments of great challenges, where the future is uncertain and dangerously presented. The Organizational Learning has been more necessary to organizations as a capable tool to develop ways ...

Response Surface Methodology is an effective framework for performing modelling and optimization of industrial processes. The Central Composite Design is the most popular experimental design for response surface analyses ...

Control charts are tools from Statistical Process Control widely used to monitor key quality characteristics of a product or service. For being extremely efficient in monitoring and improving quality, research is needed ...

This paper presents a study about the utilization of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) in costs stochastic modeling by a turning process of a hardned steel SAE/ABNT 52100. In function of the random nature of the tool ...

The quality in the manufacturing processes generally depends on the attainment of a great deal of characteristics, which sometimes are correlated. An efficient transformation of these attributes probably can be done through ...

Modern production systems require monitoring processes for quality assurance and production compliance. Computer vision is a strong ally in the process of object identification and feature extraction, being used in several ...

The produced water generated by the primary oil processing carried out by offshore oil platforms, which has a total of oil and grease (TOG), is usually reinjected or disposed into the open ocean. This disposal is ...

Prediction of tool life is important to ensure conformity of the product and to avoid damage to the product itself and to the machine. Surface roughness is an essential requirement for machined products. The main figure ...
