The company has three options. Supplier A sells the silicon wafers for $2.50 per wafer, independently of the number of wafers ordered. Supplier B sells the wafers for $2.40 each but does not consider an order for less than 2,000 wafers. Supplier C sells the wafers for $2.30 each but does not accept an order for less than 3,000 wafers. Assume an order setup cost of $100 and an annual requirement of 20,000 wafers. Assume a 20% annual interest rate for holding cost calculations. a. Which supplier should be chosen to minimize the total annual cost for the wafers, and what is the optimal order quantity? b. If the replenishment lead time for wafers…

The rapid progress of engineering design and information technology has caused difficulties in analyzing system reliability. Because of the increased complexity in system reliability structure (component/subsystem interfaces), many unexpected failure modes could occur, and their behaviors are interdependent. At a system’s design and development stage, the main challenge in analyzing a complex system is the failure uncertainty introduced by the incomplete knowledge of the system. This makes it hard to decompose system reliability into subsystem/component reliability in a deterministic manner, such as series or parallel systems. As a result, some common reliability analysis tools such as fault tree (FT) and reliability block diagram (RBD) become inadequate. Do you agree, why or why not? Are there any other approaches to system reliability assessment beside these tools at the early system’s design and development stage (what are these approaches)?

Basic Manufacturing Process with 2 Job Types + Inspection Time between job arrivals at a machining station is exponentially distributed with mean 4.4 minutes. There are 2 types of jobs to be processed 30% of which is Type 1 and, 70% are of Type 2. Processing times are exponentially distributed. Mean processing time for Type 1 is 4.8 minutes, for Type 2 it is 2.5 minutes. After the job is processed, they go through an inspection process with one single inspector and an inspection time with triangular distribution (1,2,3.5). Inspector decides whether the part is good enough, scrap or should be reworked. 80% of the parts produced is good, 10 % is scrap and the rest needs rework. Rework is done by the same manufacturing machine. The priority among the parts will be Part1 first, part2 second and reworks of both type comes later. Rework time is normally distributed with mean 2 minutes and 0,2 std dev. Simulate the system for one 8-hour day.

S 3: Light gates may be used to measure the speed of projectiles, such as arrows shot from a bow. English longbows made of yew in the 1400s achieved launch speeds of 60 m/s. Determine the relationship between light gates and the accuracy required for sensing the times when the light gate senses the presence of the arrow.

The activities, duration and cost under normal and crashed conditions for a network diagram are shown in the accompanying table.    1. Determine the normal duration of the project 2. Determine the normal cost of the project 3. Determine the critical path under normal conditions.

Analysis and Interpretation of vertical Ground Reaction Forces. In this study, a volunteer was asked to walk on two force platforms under two different conditions. Condition 1- Normal Walk (NW), condition 2 - walking over an obstacle (ObsW). The right limb was the one to step on platform 1 in both conditions. The force platforms were used to measure the vertical ground reaction forces on the right limb. Data was collected on Vicon (Nexus) software and the attached graphs ( mean NW/ObsW, Mean (+-)1SD NW/ObsW) were created. Analyse ,Interpret the graphs and make a conclusion of the result attached.
