Over the centuries, rubber latex gained its popularity in machinery application due to its unique thermal properties, high elasticity and excellent impact resistance. It is widely accepted in food industry as rubber has good resistance to chemicals, including acids, alkalis and salts. For instance, rubber components comprise of couplings, shields, dust covers, gaskets and seals exist as group o...

In the automotive industry, a barrier to widespread implementation of friction stir welding (FSW) for aluminum joining is the perceived need for high cost, custom capital machinery. The reason for this perception is that the FSW process requires relatively large forces that commonly used automation machinery (e.g. an industrial robot) has difficulty producing. Further complicating the issue, is...

In this work, an overview of industrial employees' noise exposure level in five selected processing and manufacturing industries in Ilorin are evaluated and compared. Emphasis is given to noise emitted by individual industrial machinery from the selected industries. Event L(Aeq) and LN cycle were studied to identify the noisy machines and to generate baseline data. Findings show that, hammer mi...

Like other areas of occupational health and safety (OHS) ergonomics is evolving and becoming more integrated into overall work management systems.

Recent work in Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 1993, McCarthy and Prince 1993, to appear) has suggested that phonological regularities can be explained without reference to phonological rules, strictly in terms of constraints on representational wellformedness. A unique aspect of Optimality Theory (OT) is that candidates are evaluated in parallel: there is no serial derivation. Given th...
