Rotor spinning is known for high production rates and uniformity of the resulting yarn. However, determining machine components which will produce the optimum process parameters such as airflow speed to result in the best combinations of yarn quality and uniformity can be a difficult task. The aim of this study is to simulate and analyze the airflow characteristics in rotors with U and V grooves during the rotor spinning process. The results obtained showed that airflow speed resulting from a rotor with the V groove is higher than that of U type. As a result, the static pressure resulting from the use of the V type groove is lower than that of U groove.

High Production

Today modular and off-site construction practices are widely used as a novel approach to residential and commercial building construction. Although this approach is known for its high production efficiency and low material waste, manufacturers are facing the challenge of fully differentiating their modular construction procedures from the conventional construction approach. Manufacturers are thus seeking to continuously implement efficient methodologies to improve their production line effectiveness, thereby enhancing their market competitiveness. This paper proposes a methodology enabling the modular manufacturer to overcome this challenge and increase their assembly line productivity by implementing building information modelling (BIM)-supported lean manufacturing concepts, with a particular focus on the importance of the upstream pre-assembly line. This technique was implemented on a case-study, a residential modular factory, and increased the production line productivity by implementing the Lean-assembly concept. This approach is supported by the information provided from an enhanced BIM model generated to deliver accurate resource quantity required at each assembly station.

Abstract Muxagata, E., Amaral, W. J. A., and Barbosa, C. N. 2012. Acartia tonsa production in the Patos Lagoon estuary, Brazil. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: 475–482. Acartid copepods are abundant in estuaries, harbours, and semi-enclosed waters. A monitoring programme with the objective of evaluating copepod production, particularly that of Acartia tonsa, the dominant taxon in the Patos Lagoon estuary, was implemented. Zooplankton samples are collected monthly from two fixed locations with bongo nets 30 cm in diameter with nets of 90 and 200 μm mesh. Over a full year, 33 quantitative samples were analysed; copepods represented 40% of the organisms collected with the 90-μm mesh. Adults and copepodites of A. tonsa accounted for ∼19% of the total copepod fauna at both locations. Daily production rates of A. tonsa were calculated as 0.40 mg C m−3 d−1 for the inner estuary and 3.65 mg C m−3 d−1 in the channel. The value of 1 333 mg C m−3 year−1 calculated for A. tonsa at the channel station is very high relative to the situation in other estuaries, indicating that the estuary has a high production of copepods.
