“…The near-OA experimental results were then calculated into S/N ratios instead of using the averages to assess the performance characteristics to desensitize the process performance from variations in the uncontrollable noise factors [22,23] . Larger S/N ratios indicate a more robust control parameter against noise [24] . The present evaluation applied a "larger-the-better" type of S/N ratio to obtain the desired maximum droplet density:…”

The control parameters of the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) should be carefully designed to improve UAV spraying performance on citrus trees. The present study investigated the optimal droplet distribution control parameters in citrus trees using a UAV and the Taguchi method, of which optimal results were observed with an inverted triangle citrus tree canopy shape, a spraying height of 1.40 m, and a flight speed of 1.0 m/s. Among the discussed control parameters, the flight speed presented the most significant effect with a contribution percentage of 74.0%. The established multiple regression model predicted an optimal spraying height of 1.27 m and a maximum droplet density of 35.39 droplets/cm 2. In addition, the effects of individual control parameter on the droplet density of the lower layer of citrus trees were systematically analyzed, of which inverted triangle shape more significantly affected the droplet density of the lower layer and presented an 82.0% increase in droplet density as compared to the triangle shape. An improvement of 59.6% in the lower layer droplet density was observed at a spraying height of 1.40 m. In addition, the other spraying heights did not present significant differences in their coefficient of variation (CV) values.

“…Manufacturing parameters like moulding pressure, temperature, time, heat treatment time are also being considered by some analyst to optimize the tribological mechanical and physical properties of brake lining material. The parametric design like Taguchi method has been used to evaluate 16 different brake linings materials produced by manufacturing conditions and are also examined for physical properties like surface hardness and porosity, tribological properties friction coefficient and wear, and the relationship between these two properties is also established [9], [10]. Asbestos is having the properties suitable as a base material of friction liners, but it is hazardous to health.…”

Frictional brake lining materials are broadly made of asbestos as their constituent. But asbestos is dangerous for handling due to health hazardous. Asbestos has ample physical, mechanical and tribological properties. The material replacing it should have all these properties with no undermine. In this paper a study on asbestos base and asbestos free brake lining material is presented. Purpose behind this is combine the demerits of asbestos free and asbestos base materials with comparable properties. Some organic waste from farm like banana peel, palm karnel shell, were also tested for the replacement of asbestos and they found worth through comparison with each others.

This investigation reports on the effect of Pongamia oil doped with lube oil on tribological characteristics of Al-7% Si alloy using the Taguchi method. The control factors involved were Pongamia oil percentage (PB 0%, PB 15%, PB 30%), sliding velocity (1.3 m/s, 2.5 m/s, 3.8 m/s) and load (50 N, 100 N, 150 N) which was optimized for weight loss, friction coefficient and wear rate characteristics of Al-7% Si alloy. The conventional lubricant SAE 40 was used for the experiment and for contamination. In this study, L 9 orthogonal was used to obtain optimum results. It is observed that the Pongamia oil percentage control factor has a significant influence on the weight loss, friction coefficient and wear rate of the pin. The optimum result was A2B3C1 for pin weight loss, friction coefficient and wear rate. The experimental results obtained were in good agreement with the theoretical model. The lubricants were characterized by viscosity using a viscometer. From the experimental results, it is found that wear scar diameter (WSD) is increased with the increase of load for lube oil and reduced by addition of percentage of Pongamia oil. The flash temperature parameter (FTP) also studied in this experiment and results shown that 15% addition of Pongamia oil would result in less possibility of film breakdown. The overall results of this experiment reveal that the addition of 15% Pongamia oil with base lubricant produces better performance and antiwear characteristics. This blend can be used as lubricant oil which is environmentally friendly in nature and would help to reduce petroleum-based lubricants substantially.
