Abstract The synchrotron light source with the electron energy of 1.2 GeV is operated by Aichi Synchrotron Radiation Centre (AichiSR) in prefecture, Japan. has been offered to industrial and academic users since March 2013 top-up operation mode maintain a constant current 300 mA. This facility was established universities, industries support government. Major purpose research development activi...

KEY POINTSThis article draws attention to key developments in the field of computer vision for industrial quality control and provides some illustrative examples.

Financial markets have been developed rapidly in recent years. New and sophisticated financial tools have been the cause of these developments which need new controlling systems to prevent crisis. Most of industrial economies have reformed regulatory structure of their financial systems. This paper reviews the regulatory developments of UK in this regard and offers new regulations and ...

With the industrial and scientific developments, many new optimization problems are needed to be solved. Several of them are complex, multi-modal, high dimensional, nondifferential problems. Therefore, some new optimization techniques have been designed, such as genetic algorithm, simulated annealing algorithm, Tabu search, etc. However, due to the large linkage and correlation among different ...

Lipases are the most versatile industrial enzymes and are known to bring about a range of bioconversion reactions. This compendium throws light on the developments in the field of fermentation of lipases and their scale up. Recently, interests have been shown on solid-state fermentation of lipases in order to facilitate the use of low cost agricultural wastes as substrates. Whole cell immobiliz...

Although formal methods have been successfully applied in various industrial applications, their use in software development is still restricted to individual case studies. To overcome this situation we aim at a methodology for an evolutionary formal software development which allows for a stepwise and incremental development process along the line of rapid prototyping. The approach is based on...

How to account for the “East Asian miracle” and what role public policy has played in the process are questions that have aroused heated debate in recent years, especially among the mainstream neoclassical school and the revisionists. Instead of attempting a complete survey, the paper reviews mainly new developments in the last few years, which include additional rounds of arguments in the deba...

The design of biocatalytic processes for industrial synthetic chemistry is determined in large part by the choice of isolated enzyme or whole-cell catalyst form. In the present paper, the considerations for choice are identified and some important classes of bioconversion are discussed in relation to the choice to be made. Recent developments in cell and protein engineering as well as reactor a...

It is little more than jifty years since the Jirst manufacture of nitric acid by the oxidation of ammonia over a platinum catalyst. Ostwald’s original industrial plant had an output of some 100 tons of acid a year; today the world capacity for nitric acid manufacture by this process is about ten million tons a year. This article traces the beginnings and early developments of the process until ...
