Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a multi criterion failure mode effect and criticality analysis for coal-fired thermal power plants using uncertain data as well as substituting the traditional risk priority number estimation method. Design/methodology/approach – Grey-complex...

In the present research work four different work materials viz. EN24, D2, H13, P20 which are commonly use in plastic industries are considered for machining applying EDM process. Four different control parameters such as pulse on time, pulse off time, gap current, and Spark gap are considered to...

In the present research work Oil Hardened Naturally Shrinking (OHNS) work-material which is commonly used in plastic industries is considered for machining by WEDM process. Four different control parameters are deliberated to study the effect on the responses like material removal rate, overcut...

Purpose: In this article, we identify various foodservice-related attributes that are important for undergraduate students residing in hostels and avail service from specific foodservice providers. We also investigate the performance of attributes to determine areas where the foodservice...

Purpose: Process flexibility (PF) is seen as a hedging instrument against demand uncertainty. This paper aims to examine capacity decisions for both flexible and dedicated processes under production policies such as make-to-order and make-to-stock. The study identifies some relative benefits,...
