AbstractMuch of the work in design research focusses on the development of methods and tools to support engineering designers. Many of these tools are nowadays implemented in software. Due to the strongly growing use of computers and smart devices in the last two decades, the expectations of users increased dramatically. In particular users expect good usability, for example little effort for learning to apply the software. Therefore, the usability evaluation of design software tools is crucial. A software tool with bad usability will not be used in industrial practice. Recommendations for usability evaluation of software often stem from the field of Human Computer Interaction. The aim of this paper is to tailor these general approaches to the specific needs of engineering design. In addition, we propose a method to analyse the results of the evaluation and to derive suggestions for improving the design software tool. We apply the usability evaluation method on a use case - the KoMBi software tool for bio-inspired design. The case study provides additional insights with regards to problem, causes and improvement categories.

Various cutting fluids are available in the cutting fluid market to provide good machining performances for metal cutting industries. Incidentally, most of the cutting fluids are synthetic and semisynthetic in nature, and although they are beneficial to the industries, they are posing health and environmental issues. Even if these cutting fluids have sufficient properties required for good machining, the major constraints associated with these fluids are their nature of nonbiodegradability and nonfriendliness to the environment. To overcome these difficulties, intense research is carried out to develop biodegradable and effective cutting fluids. In this research, a novel castor oil-based cutting fluid infused with nanomolybdenum (MoS2) particles has been developed and its various machining properties have been investigated. Various important cutting parameters like surface roughness, tool life, and cutting force were investigated using this newly developed biodegradable nanofluid as a cutting fluid. Comparative experimental studies have also been undertaken with sunflower oil blend and conventional synthetic oil. Observed results validated that the newly developed castor oil-based nanofluid improves the surface finish and tool life by minimizing the cutting force developed to the considerable extent.

The aim of the study is to present the concept of bio-economy and its development factors, as well as the analysis and evaluation of the use of the bio-economy concept in shaping development strategies in the European Union. Particular attention is paid to bio-economy as part of a sustainable development strategy, implementation of innovations and formation of smart specialization of regions. On the basis of available literature and documents of the European Union, as well as other institutions, bio-economy is presented as a new economic category, and bio-economy development factors and bio-economy itself are presented as a strategic planning tool. One of the key conclusions is the statement that bio-economy, which constitutes an important sector increasing in significance within the real economy, is a new interesting analytical and cognitive concept in economics and also a useful tool in strategic planning development.

Microorganisms are only effective when adequate conditions for their survival and development are provided. Among the factors that influence its effectiveness includes the type of soil or culture substrate, which works as an energy source reserve. Therefore, a tomato and a melon crop were established in different cycles to assess the effect of the physicochemical properties of organic substrates based on coconut fibre and vermicompost in three proportions, 0:100, 40:60 and 60:40 (% v:v), on the microbial activity in the rhizosphere when the bacteria Azotobacter vinelandii, Bacillus megaterium and Frateuria aurantia were applied. Concentrations of NO3−, H2PO4−, K+ and Ca2+ in the petiole cellular extract (PCE) were quantified at 60, 90 and 120 days after transplantation (DAT) for tomato and 45 and 65 DAT for melon. We analysed dehydrogenase activity (DHA), acid phosphatase activity (FTA) and β-glucosidase activity (β-GLU). In order to maintain optimal volumetric moisture for the survival of microorganisms, automatic control was used to manage the irrigation frequency between 22%–28%. The results showed that physicochemical substrate properties, by incorporating 40% vermicompost into the coconut fibre mixture, increased enzymatic activity. Plants that were inoculated with Azotobacter vinelandii and Frateuria aurantia showed an improvement in NO3− and K+ assimilation achieving highest yields.

: This article presents BiomiMETRIC, a quantitative performance tool for biomimetic design. This tool is developed as a complement to the standard ISO 18458 Biomimetics—terminology, concepts, and methodology to quantitatively evaluate the biomimetics performance of a design, a project, or a product. BiomiMETRIC is aimed to assist designers, architects, and engineers to facilitate the use of the biomimetic approach beyond the existing frameworks, and to provide an answer to the following question: How can a quantitative evaluation of biomimetic performance be carried out? The biomimetic quantitative performance tool provides a method of quantitative analysis by combining the biomimetic approach with the impact assessment methods used in life-cycle analysis. Biomimetic design is divided into eight steps. The seventh step deals with performance assessment, verifying that the concept developed is consistent with the 10 sustainable ecosystem principles proposed by the Biomimicry Institute. In the application of the biomimetic quantitative performance tool, stone wool and cork are compared as insulation materials used in biomimetic architecture projects to illustrate the relevance and added value of the tool. Although it is bio-based, cork has a lower biomimetic performance according to the indicators used by the biomimetic quantitative performance tool presented in this article.

Early detection of pregnancy gives breeders, veterinarians, and researchers the necessary information to improve prenatal care, improve the condition of postnatal lambs and kids and increases production efficiency in small ruminants. In this study, it was aimed to compare and evaluate the accuracy of Bio-RPD rapid visual pregnancy test and transabdominal scanning in determining pregnancy status in 64 goats. The obtained results showed that Bio-RPD visual is more accurate than ultrasound scanning at 30 days of pregnancy. Both tests have the same results and accuracy at 45 days of pregnancy. We recommended that BioRPD visual test is a useful, rapid, and accurate tool for early pregnancy diagnosis at the 30th day of pregnancy. Transabdominal scanning could be used as a useful tool for pregnancy diagnosis in goats and small ruminants at 45 days of pregnancy.

<p class="abstract">There are numerous instruments available to assess pigmentation in terms of color, melanin, and other factors, but there is no standardized or validated tool to assess a person's glow and radiance. The MSCR- glow and radiance index (G&amp;R)-composite scale was created with the help of a bio-physics background and includes five important factors. The scale is intended to provide an objective, scientific assessment tool for a highly subjective perception caused by numerous skin features. It should be emphasized that the scale is highly sensitive in measuring minor changes in the skin and generating numerical data that can be assessed using various statistical method. The numerical interpretation is also equivalent to measurements produced with a scientific instrument employing optometry principle, as evidenced by comparisons with other instruments. The assessment scale is an amalgamation of sensory visual evaluation with bio-physics that defines the optometric of the skin. The scale has been used to objectively assess skin glow and was found to be a highly sensitive assessment tool to assess all kind of dermatological products designed to provide enhanced glow and radiance.</p>

The direct ω-oxyfunctionalisation of aliphatic alkanes in a regio- and chemoselective manner remains difficult to perform by industrial organic chemistry. Monooxygenases such as the AlkBGT enzyme complex from Pseudomonas putida efficiently catalyse these readily available substrates to fatty alcohols, aldehydes and acids under mild conditions. However, numerous challenges remain to achieve industrially competitive space-time-yields for bio-oxidations. The ability to rapidly screen bioconversion reactions for characterisation and optimisation is of major importance in bioprocess development and biocatalyst selection; studies at lab scale are time consuming and labour intensive with low experimental throughput. This study developed and validated a robust high-throughput microwell platform for whole-cell two-liquid phase bio-oxidations of highly volatile alkanes. Using microwell plates machined from polytetrafluoroethylene and a sealing clamp, highly reproducible results were achieved with no significant variability such as edge effects determined. Further, the developed platform was extended by a fed-batch implementation revealing the large impact of feeding conditions on the resting cell bio-oxidation of volatile alkanes. The unpredictable nature and large differences between varying alkane substrates show the importance of being able to test fed-batch conditions early in development. Lastly, six co-solvents were screened to relieve organic phase toxicity and improve control over the product spectrum in the bio-oxidation of hydrocarbons. In combination with computational and statistical tools, it was shown that polar surfactants allow the extraction of the alcohol product, increasing the alcohol yield and reducing phase toxicity. Specifically, the solubility of co-solvents reaction substrate and product was revealed to be the determining factor for product selectivity. Overall, the developed microwell plate greatly improves experimental throughput, accelerating the screening procedures specifically for biocatalytic processes in non-conventional media. Its simplicity, robustness and standardisation ensure high reliability of results. The accelerated data collection on biological as well as process options allows obtaining key process design data early on, de-risking and speeding up the translation of new processes from laboratory to pilot-plant scale.

Software for the visualization and analysis of protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks can enable general exploration, as well as providing graph-theoretic algorithms for specific tasks. Analyses can include reduction of complexity or the scope of the network in order to make it more manageable, or increase in complexity by integration with other datasets, to represent biology more accurately. Two software approaches are outlined in this chapter: desktop applications and web services. Desktop applications have attractive user interfaces with a wide range of analysis tools, and often capabilities for integration of other bio-molecular data. Web services provide a newer approach to network analysis. They have the advantages of a broader range of potential functionalities and a more extensible framework than standalone desktop tools. However, their relative infancy means that they are not as well developed. This chapter provides an evaluation of some common desktop applications, compared to and contrasted with several examples of web services.

The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) allowed to adopt that new of 'functioning', which refers to bodily structures and functions, activity and participation and interaction between these and personal and environmental factors.The model is increasingly becoming the reference for the planning/organization of inclusive interventions, in Europe and in the Italian schools: it has been one of the main topics (l. 107/2015) in the last three-year Italian teacher training plan. The work presents procedures the early results of three professionaltraining courses evaluation (2017-2019). The courses involved 73in-service teachers and aimed to enhance the design skills of Individualized Education Plan (IEP) on ICF model. According to the Kirkpatrick Model,the evaluation has been conducted on the teachers’ ‘learnings’ and ‘transfer’ detected through pre-post test and a document analysis of the IEP. The study highlighted few linguistic and semantic difficulties and a better teachers’ sensitivity to the environmental component of the functioning. It offers some useful hints for the construction of a possible trans-national platform (as sharing of practices, data-base)about the training of school teachers on ICF bio-psychosocial model, as well as arguments regarding the tools for verifying the effectiveness of teachers training interventions.

A significant problem encountered in the gas turbine industry with fuel products is the degradation of fuel and fuel systems by microorganisms, which are largely bacteria, embedded in biofilms. These microorganisms cause system fouling and other degradatory effects, extending often to sudden failure of components with cost implications. Current methods of assessment are only post-impact evaluation and do not necessarily quantify the effects of fuel degradation on engine performance and emission. Therefore, effective models that allow predictive condition monitoring are required for engine’s fuel system reliability, especially with readily biodegradable biofuels. The aim of this paper is to introduce the concept of bio-fouling in gas turbines and the development of a bio-mathematical model with potentials to predict the extent and assess the effects of microbial growth in fuel systems. The tool takes into account mass balance stoichiometry equations of major biological processes in fuel bio-fouling. Further development, optimization and integration with existing Cranfield in-house simulation tools will be carried out to assess the overall engine performance and emission characteristics. This new tool is important for engineering design decision, optimization processes and analysis of microbial fuel degradation in gas turbine fuels and fuel systems.

In literature, there can be found many studies that measure the level of satisfaction in the academic level (University), in all university all over the world. The method of collecting information is based on forms and usually include issues related both to the quality of the education act in itself, but also to the aspects related to the material base of the University, psychological and social aspects, the social perception of the University and sometimes to the further insertion in the labour market. Most studies use mathematical regression as a tool, but there are also works that go for fuzzy or neuro-fuzzy systems. The last two have proved to be very efficient and this suggests the possibility that the merger of nonlinear data can sometimes be a better indicator of the level of satisfaction than the one given by linear regression. We must take note of the fact that, sometimes, a high level of student satisfaction does not necessarily involve a high level of that student’s performance. As a result, we will treat these two goals separately and this paper will focus only on the evaluation of students at the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, using a tool for measurement and data fusion of stacked neural networks. Bioengineering represents a confluence area of engineering, medical and fundamental sciences. It is difficult to deal with the evaluation technique as a unitary field, since in the students’ curriculum there can also be found, for example, the electric and bio-chemistry fields. As a result, we propose the use of the questionnaire methodology, based on 5 levels of satisfaction, and 4 chapters of interest (Engineering Sciences, Medical Sciences, Fundamental Sciences, and Social Issues) that are weighted in four multilayer neural networks. The results of these neural networks merge into a function of regression, creating stacked neural networks which produce a global assessment of student’s level of satisfaction. The evaluation group was comprised of a number of 127 students in their final year, from three successive generations, about 90% of graduate students every year. Results were employed in the statistical percentage of confidence level of 95%, considered to be acceptable, taking into account the diversity of perceptions on the level of an interdisciplinary faculty.

Several optical methods have proved useful as a diagnostic tool for characterizing various skin disorders. The techniques vary from non-coherent methods such as, e.g., time independent reflectance spectroscopy and phase resolved photon migration based on evaluating the phase of the envelope of a high frequency amplitude modulated optical beam. A typical example a coherent or interferometric technique is optical coherence tomography where the spatial resolution is determined by the small coherence length a superluminescent diode source. Various infrared or thermal techniques are also important, ranging from imaging of the normal black body emission to time resolved measurements of the surface temperature initiated by transient selective heating of subcutaneous structures, such as, e.g., blood vessels.1-3)

When moving towards CO2 neutral bio fuels and waste derived fuels, new challenges are set for combustion facilities and technical boiler solutions. A common feature for both bio- and waste fuels is a big variety in composition, often high levels of alkali metals, chlorine and moisture which make these fuels difficult to burn in facilities designed for conventional fuels such as coal, peat and wood. The problems that might occur due to high alkali and chlorine levels in the fuels, are slagging, fouling, corrosion and bed sintering. The Fortum BioMAC BFB boilers are designed especially for difficult, unconventional fuels such as rice husk, olive waste, straw, construction residue, de-inking sludge, etc. The design of each individual boiler is made based on advanced theoretical prediction tools and extensive fuel testing in laboratory and in pilot scale combustion facilities. The theoretical tools consist of a multi-phase multi-component chemical equilibrium model that estimates the slagging/fouling, sintering and corrosion propensity of the fuels/fuel mixtures and of a computational fluid dynamics part. CFD calculations are used to optimize the flow pattern and the temperature of the boiler in order to avoid hot temperatures in the vicinity of refractory linings and cooled surfaces. The chemical equilibrium calculations predict the melting behavior of the fuel ash, which is used as an indicator for the placement of the superheaters. The bottom ash removal is controlled for efficient removal of coarse material, screening and recirculation. The ash related problems of important bio and waste fuels, the analytical procedure of the evaluation of the usability of the fuels and the adaptation of the boiler design are discussed in the paper.

ABSTRACT Sequence stratigraphic, structural and reservoir analytical tools have been employed in interpreting the geology of the eastern Coastal Swamp Depo-belt of the Niger Delta Basin. The aim was to understand the stratigraphic framework, structural styles and hydrocarbon reservoir distribution for improved regional hydrocarbon exploration across the onshore Niger Delta basin. This interpretative study made use of well logs, biostratigraphic (biofacies and bio-zonation) and petrophysical data obtained from twenty wellbores, integrated with recently merged and reprocessed 3D Pre-Stack Time Migrated regional seismic volume spanning across eight fields (over 960 km2). Results reveal the occurrence of nine key chronostratigraphic surfaces (five maximum flooding surfaces and four sequence boundaries) that were tied to well-established pollen and foram bio-zones for high resolution sequence stratigraphic interpretation. The sediment stacking patterns recognized from gamma ray log signatures were used in delineating the lowstand system tract (LST), transgressive system tract (TST) and highstand system tract (HST) genetic units. Well log sequence stratigraphic correlation reveals that stratal packages within the area were segmented into three depositional sequences occurring from middle to late Miocene age. Furthermore, there is thickening of stratal packages with corresponding decrease in net-to-gross thickness from north to south (basinwards). This is due possibly to the influence of syn-depositional structures on stratigraphy. The combination of reservoir sands (of LST and HST), source and seal shales (of TST and HST) and fault structures allows for good hydrocarbon accumulation and should be targeted during exploration. Reservoir evaluation studies using petrophysical parameters indicates the presence of good quality reservoir intervals, which are laterally continuous and partly compartmentalized. Structural top maps of reservoirs show good amplitude response that are stratigraphically and structurally controlled. Structural analysis revealed the occurrence of back-to-back faulting, collapsed crest structures, simple/faulted rollovers, regional foot wall and hanging wall closures and sub-detachment structures. These structural styles constitute the major hydrocarbon entrapment mechanism in the area. Overall, the study has unraveled the existence of undrilled hydrocarbon leads at deeper depths that should be further revalidated for development and production.
