An Ergonomic Study Of Meat Processing Operations, Edgar Delgado Dec 1990

An Ergonomic Study Of Meat Processing Operations, Edgar Delgado

Masters Theses

In this study, physical stresses imposed on the different parts of the musculoskeletal system were assessed using a subjective ratings of perceived discomfort (RPD) scale in the meat industry. The effects of a microbreak system on the perceived discomfort of employees were studied. In addition, a comparison of human physical capacities (i.e., anthropometric, strength, and endurance measures) for Caucasian-American and Hispanic-Mexican employees in the meat industry was performed. These measures were also compared against those of employees engaged in manual material handling tasks. Twenty-eight employees participated in the study.

Based on this study, it can be concluded that: (a) RPD …


Cambrian-Early Ordovician Sequence Stratigraphy And Mount Simon Sandstone Petrology-Michigan Basin, Jeffrey T. Cottingham Dec 1990

Cambrian-Early Ordovician Sequence Stratigraphy And Mount Simon Sandstone Petrology-Michigan Basin, Jeffrey T. Cottingham

Masters Theses

Michigan subsurface correlation is complicated in the Cambrian-Early Ordovician section due to limited availability of rock data. Core and cuttings examination demonstrate that similar stratigraphic sequences exist between the Michigan Basin and surrounding regions. Lithofacies in Wisconsin outcrop are similar to their basinal counterparts, and are correlated on the basis of sediment types, sedimentary structures, and the sequence stratigraphic concept.

The Mount Simon Sandstone in Michigan correlates with that observed in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Iowa. Isopach data throughout the Midwest indicate a single depocenter in Northeastern Illinois. Sedimentary structures and lithology indicate a subtidal environment that may be a progradational …

Integration Of Distributed Expert Systems: An Open System Approach., Semir Al-Schamma Dec 1990

Integration Of Distributed Expert Systems: An Open System Approach., Semir Al-Schamma

Student Work

The integrated use of expert systems distributed on a network is a topic of practical importance. Through the proper integration methods, powerful expert systems could emerge. Several approaches exist for distributed problem solving, but most of them assume that the individual agents possess sufficient knowledge and skills to communicate and negotiate results and plans. In practice, however, what is needed is a simple, easy-to-implement, approach that allows the integrated use of a distributed (probably existing) set of expert systems or agents. In this thesis the OSDES approach (which stands for Open System of Distributed Expert Systems) is presented. It entails …
