Repricing Made-To-Order Production Programs., Mehmet Murat Tarimcilar

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Planned procurement quantities in made-to-order production programs are often altered after production has started. Cost analysts are concerned about providing cost estimates for alternatives to ongoing programs. This research develops a new model for repricing made-to-order production programs. It is an effort to integrate a theoretically developed production phase prediction model into a comprehensive repricing model. The production model is defined by a cost function that employs the impact of two cost determinants, production rate and learning. It is supported by economic theory and is consistent with our knowledge of made-to-order production process. The theoretical model links the direct costs …

A Search For Neutrino Oscillations., Wai Ching Choi

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

A search for neutrino oscillation has been carried out at LAMPF (the Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility). The engineering run in the 1986 cycle has demonstrated that the detector works as designed. The probability of oscillation between two neurino types $\nu\sb1$ and $\nu\sb2$ can be parameterized by two variables: (1) the difference between the squares of the masses of two mass eigenstates $\delta$m$\sp2$ $(\equiv\ \vert$m$\sb1\sp2$ - m$\sb2\sp2\vert),$ and (2) the mixing angle $(\theta)$ between the two states. In this experiment, we set limits on the oscillations $\bar\nu\sb\mu$ $\to$ $\bar\nu\sb{\rm e}$ and $\nu\sb{\rm e}$ $\to$ $\bar\nu\sb{\rm e}$ as a function of …

Computer Simulation Of Hydrostatic Co-Extrusion Of Bimetallic Compounds., Mohammad Mohammad Abadi Dehghani

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

A study of hydrostatic co-extrusion of a hard-core/soft-clad bi-metallic compound has been conducted. The research employs the Sachs' boring-out technique to determine the residual stress distribution in a hydrostatically co-extruded copper-clad Gildcop composite. A parallel simulation of the residual stress distribution in such composites extruded to extrusion ratios of 2.25, 4.0, and 7.5 was conducted using the ABAQUS finite element code. The version of the code employed uses an elastic-plastic constitutive law for material behavior and does not simulate deformation heating effects. Data for the mechanical properties were obtained experimentally by constant true strain-rate tests on material identical to that …

Synthesis And Characterization Of Carbon-Bridged (1(N))(2,6)Pyridinophanes., Young Je Joo

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Pyridine-containing heterophanes, which possess a rigid non-flexible framework, similar to that of porphyrin backbones, are ideal structures to probe the electronic and/or steric effects within a highly electron-rich cavity. The syntheses of heteromacrocycles incorporating the 2,6-pyridino moiety are described. 2-Bromo-6-lithiopyridine, generated from 2,6-dibromopyridine and n-butyllithium, was used to synthesize 2,6-bis (2$\sp\prime$-(6$\sp\prime$-bromopicolinoyl)) pyridine and bis-2-(6-bromopyridyl)ketone in 36% and 63% yield, respectively. Ketalization of these ketones was accomplished by either standard acidic or basic conditions. To model a nucleophilic substitution route for cyclization of the resulting ketals, lithioacetonitriles were allowed to react with bromopyridines to produce symmetrical and unsymmetrical cyanomethine adducts in …

Resolution Proof Technique In Linear Temporal Logic., Krzysztof Jan Kochut Jan 1987

Resolution Proof Technique In Linear Temporal Logic., Krzysztof Jan Kochut

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This dissertation presents a resolution proof technique for Propositional Linear Temporal Logic of discrete time with the "Until" operator. The presented proof technique stems from the resolution method developed by L. Farinas del Cerro and A. Cavalli. However, their method is incomplete, and their completeness proof, as originally reported, is incorrect. Unlike Farinas's method, our proof technique incorporated the "Until" operator, which is a very powerful and useful in describing complex temporal relationships which are common in many areas of computer science. Our technique is also proved complete. The presented resolution method for linear temporal logic is similar to classical …

Field Evaluation And Genetic Analysis Of {\It Heliothis\/} Spp. Resistance In Advanced Lanthanum Cotton Strains., Stephen James Stringer

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Seventeen advanced La cotton breeding strains having Heliothis spp. resistance attributed to morphological characters and allelochemics were evaluated for field resistance and flowerbud gossypol content at Baton Rouge, LA. in 1982 and 1983. These experimental cottons averaged less than 50% of the Heliothis spp. larvae and feeding-damaged fruit of two cotton cultivars recommended for production in Louisiana. These strains also had at least 25% less feeding-damaged fruit and 15% fewer live Heliothis spp. larvae than two Heliothis spp. resistant cotton germplasm lines. Results suggested that high flowerbud gossypol pigment glandulosity, rather than flowerbud gossypol content per se, played an important …

Experimental And Finite Element Study Of Residual Stresses In Zircaloy-4(R) And Ofhc Copper Tubes., Jahangir Rasty

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Non-homogeneous plastic deformation associated with metal-forming operations results in a state of residual stress in the final product. Complete evaluation of the mechanical behavior of the product under operating condition requires a knowledge of these stresses. In order to evaluate the magnitude and distribution of residual stresses, existing experimental techniques are complemented by computer-aided simulation of the forming process using elastic-plastic finite element method (FEM). It is found the FEM can be effectively utilized to simulate metal-forming operations in order to determine the combination of process variables which optimizes the residual stress distribution in the final product. In the experimental …
