the oxidative coupling of methane (ocm) performance over na-w-mn/sio2 at elevated pressures has been simulated by adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) using reaction data gathered in an isothermal fixed bed microreactor. in the designed neuro fuzzy models, three important parameters such as methane to oxygen ratio, gas hourly space velocity (ghsv), and reaction temperature were conside...

this paper presents an overview of new approaches in rapid product development in production networks from design points of view. the manufacturing industries are changing their focus to global sourcing as a means to improve performance and enhance competitiveness. some partnerships created with this strategy improve product development through collaborative design. with the advent of e-commerc...
