Annette Behunin BUOM 485 Case Study - Duncan Industries October 4, 2011 Background Duncan Industries manufactures automotive hoists, with a focus in surface hoists used by repair shops, service stations, automotive garages and car dealerships. There are two types of hoists, in-ground and surface. Within the surface lifts, there are several types manufactured including two and four-post as well scissor lifts. Surface lifts represent 78.5% of the market, and scissor lifts are but a small portion of that representing 6.0% of the surface category and 4.7% of the overall market. Duncan Industries specializes in scissor hoists.
Founded by” Dr. Riordan, a professor of chemistry, who had obtained several patents relative to processing polymers into high tensile strength plastic substrates. Sensing the commercial applications for his patents, Dr. Riordan started Riordan Plastics, Inc. in 1991.” (Riordan simulation) Riordan Industries operates facilities in the United States and China to manufacture and distribute one or more plastic components of each of its products. Riordan also has a research and development staff in U.S. at the San Jose branch offices, through which it is developing a pipeline of products for potential commercialization in “the areas of automotive parts manufacturers, aircraft manufacturers, the Department of Defense, beverage makers and bottlers, and appliance manufacturers.” Riordan management and employees are dedicated to high ethical standards and recognize Riordan’s duty to conduct its affairs within the bounds of the law. Riordan operations are subject to numerous federal and state laws and regulations and its products are reimbursed indirectly by federal programs. The laws and regulations governing; those who Industries -or- supply products are increasingly complex, and Riordan is committed to conducting its business activities in compliance with all applicable, laws,
a) Plants produce O2 and sugars from CO2 b) Animals produce CO2 and H2O from sugars and O2 c) Plants produce O2 and sugars and animals produce CO2 and H2O d) Animals produce O2 and sugars and plants produce CO2 and H2 27. Think of the cell as a factory, in which the organelles are specialized sites of production. All cells have a power plant, the mitochondrion. Plant cells have an additional “reactor” for the production of usable energy. It is called the
Stoichiometry of a Neutralization Reaction & Aluminum Leftovers Labs By: Blaze Burnell February 2, 2013 Abstract: The objective of these two labs was to observe how important stoichiometry is in the world of chemistry to understand reactions, predict amounts of reactants needed and products produced, and to determine the identity of unknown substances. Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry concerned with measuring the proportions of elements that combine during chemical reactions(Bing). The importance of stoichiometry was reinforced through a single replacement reaction and a titration experiment. Both of these experiments along with many others throughout the chemistry world relied fully on stoichiometry and a good understanding of the periodic table in order to finish the required calculations. Introduction: Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry concerned with measuring the proportions of elements that combine during chemical reactions (Bing).
5. Conduit - a tube or trough for protecting electric wiring 6. Racks - is a metal frame used to hold various hardware devices such as servers, hard disk drives, modems and other electronic equipment. 7. Punch – Down Blocks - is a type of electrical connection often used in telephony.
Wareham SC Systems, Inc. is a “capital equipment and testing instrument manufacturer and supplier comprised to a variety of highly cynical electronics-based industries” (Anthony, Hawkins, & Merchant, 2010, p. 137). Wareham SC Systems, Inc. is comprised of three divisions, Glendale Division, Advanced Technology Division, and Technical Devices Division. Glendale Division is an equipment manufacturer that is sold in a standard model. Advanced Technology Division is also a manufacturer of equipment however they develop and manufacture complex equipment. Technical Devices Division is also a manufacturer however they specialize in “electrical, electronic and mechanical testing devices” and market their product to distributors as well as direct sales to high-volume customers.
Spectrophotometer lab Michael Runge Abstract: This lab report contains an explanation of how to use a spectrophotometer to determine the concentration of copper within a penny. Included are all the data, graphs, and calculations made to determine the percentage of copper in a penny. There is also a materials list, along with instructions on how to duplicate this lab. Background: Designed by Benjamin Franklin, the penny was first minted in 1787 and made out of pure copper. Over time the penny has made many transformations, but in 1982 the United States stopped using fully copper metal pennies because the price of copper was more valuable than what a penny was worth.
The Grignard Reaction Synthesis of triphenylmethanol Josh Wilson Chem 443-003 January 1,2012-February 7,2012 Introduction In this experiment we synthesized triphenylmethanol from a Grignard reagent and an ester. To form triphenylmethanol we reacted methyl benzoate with phenylmagnesium bromide. Reaction Scheme: Theory An organometallic compound is an organic compound that contains a Carbon-metallic bond. The metal can be Li, Na, Mg, Cu, Pd or any other transitional metal. In this lab we used Mg as our metallic portion of the organometallic compound.
Examples of materials commonly recycled are, office paper, steel from old buildings, plastic containers and aluminum cans. These products are recycled through municipal programs encouraging bulk house hold collections. 4.) How do we use this resource to generate electricity? Fossil fuels like the substance sulfur dioxide products are burnt to heat water under pressure , making them steam.
Ellis Jr. was an early pioneer in physics, he was born in the year 1924 and he passed away in 1989 on December 15th at the age of sixty two. Ellis received his Master of Science degree at Yale University. After receiving his Master's Robert Ellis taught at Tennessee A&I. Robert Ellis then went to earn his doctorate at the University of Iowa. Robert Ellis was head of experimental projects at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory up until 1956. Upon obtaining his PhD, Ellis returned to Tenessee A&I as a professor a few years before joining in the year 1956 a group working on controlled fusion, Project Matterhorn in Princeton.
