Evaluation of maturity levels in the management of product development: case studies in the capital goods industry
(2010)
In recent approaches to the management of product development process (PDP), maturity levels have attracted the attention of practitioners and researchers. The CMMI model contributes to evaluate the maturity levels and ...
Computational modelling in protective engineering research: Recent advances and good practice
(International Association of Protective Structures, 2013-09)
Protective engineering has attracted significant renewed research interest in recent years. In the development to tackle the challenges arising from the needs of in-depth and detailed information about the complex dynamic ...
Linear and Poisson models for genetic evaluation of tick resistance in cross-bred Hereford x Nellore cattle
(2013-04-15)
Cattle resistance to ticks is measured by the number of ticks infesting the animal. The model used for the genetic analysis of cattle resistance to ticks frequently requires logarithmic transformation of the observations. ...
Modelling fungus dispersal scenarios using cellular automata
(2013-03-01)
This study focused on representing spatio-temporal patterns of fungal dispersal using cellular automata. Square lattices were used, with each site representing a host for a hypothetical fungus population. Four possible ...
The adoption of good practices of handling improves dairy calves welfare: Case study
(2021-08-19)
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the adoption of a set of good practices of handling on dairy calves welfare. Data were retrieved from the records of a commercial farm, considering three periods: Conventional ...
A conceptual model of the human-animal relationships dynamics during newborn handling on cow-calf operation farms
(2021-04-01)
Neonate calves are usually handled a day after birth for navel care and identification. During this procedure the newly calved cows usually become agitated and, in some cases, exhibit aggressive behavior toward humans, ...
Long-term effects of good handling practices during the pre-weaning period of crossbred dairy heifer calves
(2017-01-01)
The aim of this study was to determine whether applying good practices of handling during the pre-weaning period have long-term effects on behavioral and physiological indicators, health status, and average daily gain (ADG) ...
Simulation results and applications of an advection bounded scheme to practical flows
(Sociedade Brasileira de Matemática Aplicada e Computacional, 2012-01-01)
This paper reports experiments on the use of a recently introduced advection bounded upwinding scheme, namely TOPUS (Computers & Fluids 57 (2012) 208-224), for flows of practical interest. The numerical results are compared ...
