Strip-Tillage Production Systems for Tobacco
Conservation tillage production systems for flue-cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) have been studied for many years. Inadequate chemical weed control and lack of acceptable pesticide and fertilizer application resulted in consistently lower yields and inferior cured leaf quality. The development …

Evolving design & Control Strategies for Production Systems
… System (L-CMS), developed within the Toyota Production System [Ohno, 1988]. The system, and consequently each cell, is designed to achieve Just-In-Time objectives. The production rate of a cell is dictated by (is, in fact, the inverse of) the Takt time. The Takt time is typically small, i.e.. …

System architecture of offshore oil production systems
This thesis presents an approach to applying Systems Architecture methods to the development of large, complex, commercial systems, particularly offshore oil and gas productions systems. The aim of this research was to assist BP in the development of concepts for a multi-billion dollar oil …

Dynamic simulation of nuclear hydrogen production systems
Nuclear hydrogen production processes have been proposed as a solution to rising CO 2 emissions and low fuel yields in the production of liquid transportation fuels. In these processes, the heat of a nuclear reactor is used to run the chemical reactions in a hydrogen plant. The resulting system is …

White clover inclusion in intensive dairy production systems
Incorporating white clover into intensive dairy production systems has the potential to increase their sustainability through increased milk output and reduced nitrogen (N) input. To support intensive stocking rates (<2.75 cows/ha) some inorganic N will still be required to support herbage …

Relay- and double-crop production systems for wheat
… organic matter to soils, diversify cropping systems, and provide economic benefits if the correct cropping systems are utilized. Relay-intercrop production involves overlapping growth cycles of two or more crops. This production system is common with legumes seeded into small grains; however, …

Towards Zero Defect Manufacturing in Multi-Stage Production Systems
… of quality improvement methods in multi-stage production systems is essential to manage and quickly eliminate manufacturing quality defects. Many companies tend to prioritize production speed rather than overall throughput, and are hypothesized to be below the optimal level of investment in …

Nitrogen Management in No-till Winter Wheat Production Systems
… types and cultural practices for no-till wheat production. Yield data were used to calculate economic optimum N rates for a range of combinations of N management strategies. Optimum N rates were regressed against tiller density at GS 25, and wheat tissue N content and SPAD chlorophyll meter …

Evaluation of terminal sire breeds for hair sheep production systems
Terminal sire crossbreeding systems which improve growth performance while maintaining parasite resistance have the potential to enhance the profitability of hair sheep enterprises. Katahdin (KT, n = 4), Suffolk (SU, n = 3), and Texel (TX, n = 3) rams were randomly mated to KT ewes over two years …
