For machined parts, setup time is a major component of the total time required to manufacture a machined part from a stock. If the number of setups and hence setup time can be reduced, this will not only decrease the manufacturing time, but will also ensure better machining accuracy, require fewer work-holding devices and increase machine usage time. To achieve any improvement in setup time, rs...

Nowadays, by successful application of on time production concept in other concepts like production management and storage, the need to complete the processing of jobs in their delivery time is considered a key issue in industrial environments. Unrelated parallel machines scheduling is a general mood of classic problems of parallel machines. In some of the applications of unrelated parallel mac...

Tissue, organ and organoid cultures provide suitable models for developmental studies, but our understanding of how the organs are assembled at the single-cell level still remains unclear. We describe here a novel fixed z-direction (FiZD) culture setup that permits high-resolution confocal imaging of organoids and embryonic tissues. In a FiZD culture a permeable membrane compresses the tissues ...

Abstract We present the design, prototype developments and test results of new time-of-flight detector (ToFD) which is part R $$^3$$ 3 B experimental setup at GSI FAIR, Darmstadt, Germany. The ToFD able to detect heavy-ion residues all charges relativistic energies with a r...
