The impact of cleaner production strategy on Sustainable supply chain performance

Abstract There is a paradigm shift occurring in organizations towards sustainable production through cleaner production strategies. This cleaner production concept has been proven to be cost-effective, result-oriented, environment-savvy and provides the organizations a cutting edge over their counterparts. However, there is a lack of awareness about cleaner production practices in Iraq while the current study analyzed one of the most important factories in Iraq for sugar production to understand the factors required for successful application of cleaner production strategy and the challenges to be expected. In this study, the researchers followed an exploratory research approach. For this study, a questionnaire was designed, validated and distributed randomly among 700 potential respondents working in various departments of the organization under study. Out of the total responses, 482 responses were considered and SEM-PLS analysis was conducted. The cleaner production strategies were applied through nine dimensions and the relationship between the performance of the factory and sustainable supply chain was found to be prominent. With a few limitations such as the choice of a single factory, weak relationship between the variables identified from hypothesis testing, the study is a first-of-its-kind in this domain, especially in dealing with sugar refineries. Based on the outcomes, policy recommendations were made to the decision makers and the government. It can be concluded that the application of modern technologies and effective resource management can help in achieving the goal of the study.

Research on the Model of Public Physical Teaching in Universities in the Context of Modern Information Technology

With the advent of the information and network era, new opportunities have emerged for the development of educational and teaching work. In the context of public physical teaching in universities, the rational application of modern information technology based on actual development situations plays a significant role. It can enrich teaching methods, improve teaching efficiency, meet students' diverse learning experiences, and ensure the quality and efficiency of teaching. However, due to objective factors, there are still some problems in the actual application process, such as the limited ability of some teachers to use information technology and the lack of investment in teaching resources, which directly limit the advantages of information technology and even affect the final teaching effectiveness, leading to counterproductive effects. Therefore, in the future development, it is necessary to strengthen the information technology training for teachers, improve their application ability and information literacy, so that they can better integrate modern information technology with physical teaching. When conditions permit, increase the investment in information technology, improve infrastructure construction, and provide necessary hardware support for public physical teaching in universities.

Wide-incident-angle, polarization-independent broadband-absorption metastructure without external resistive elements by using a trapezoidal structure

The absorption of electromagnetic waves in a broadband frequency range with polarization insensitivity and incidence-angle independence is greatly needed in modern technology applications. Many structures based on metamaterials have been suggested for addressing these requirements; these structures were complex multilayer structures or used special materials or external electric components, such as resistive ones. In this paper, we present a metasurface structure that was fabricated simply by employing the standard printed-circuit-board technique but provides a high absorption above 90% in a broadband frequency range from 12.35 to 14.65 GHz. The metasurface consisted of structural unit cells of 4 symmetric substructures assembled with a metallic bar pattern, which induced broadband absorption by using a planar resistive interaction in the pattern without a real resistive component. The analysis, simulation, and measurement results showed that the metasurface was also polarization insensitive and still maintained an absorption above 90% at incident angles up to 45°. The suggested metasurface plays a role in the fundamental design and can also be used to design absorbers at different frequency ranges. Furthermore, further enhancement of the absorption performance is achieved by improved design and fabrication.

Application of Modern Technology in Minimal Invasive Dentistry - A Narrative Review

Preserving human anatomy and physiology is the ultimate goal of all health-related endeavours.The conservation of healthy tooth structure is the goal of minimal-intervention dentistry. The concept of "minimum/minimal intervention dental care" first appeared in the early 1980s. From its origins in general medicine, the minimum intervention philosophy in dentistry was created, focusing patient-oriented oral and dental care to prevent and treat oral disorders and maintaining over all oral health. A more conservative approach to tooth preparation and restoration in operative dentistry is called minimally invasive restorative dentistry. This terminology is relatively new. It comprises prompt identification prior to the onset of cavitation, sealing fissures and pits in uninfected areas, fluoride administration, minimum surgical repair of carious lesions, caries risk evaluation, and patient education regarding self-care. A wide range of methods are used, from initial identification of any demineralized tooth structure to evaluation and therapy, including air abrasion, laser cavity preparation, chemo-mechanical caries removal, and hand instrumentation. Adopting the current advanced method requires sufficient knowledge. The trio that comprises tissue histology, dental biomaterials science and professional patient care and management of materials are considered by the "golden triangle" of minimally invasive treatment options for dental caries in order to enable the successful application of minimally invasive dentistry in all patients. The term "minimal intervention dentistry" (MID) was first used in the early 2000s in a policy statement. Maintaining the greatest amount of healthy tooth structure and keeping teeth functional for life are the goals of MID. This approach is endorsed by the World Dental Federation (FDI) as the modern approach to dental caries management

Design of Capacitive Power Transfer System with Small Coupling Capacitance for Wireless Power Transfer

Wireless power transfer systems play an important role in the application of modern power supply technology. Wireless charging has been widely used in portable devices such as smartphones, laptops, and even some medical devices. Higher system efficiency can be achieved while reducing costs. This article describes the design of a capacitive power transfer (CPT) system using the Class-E amplifier method. When the capacitance of the coupling plate is small, the operation of Class-E amplifiers under Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) conditions is very sensitive to their circuit parameters. By adding an additional capacitor to the Class-E amplifier, the coupling capacitance can be increased, resulting in better circuit performance. The high efficiency of the Class-E amplifier is verified by simulation and experimental results.

Physics mechanisms underlying the optimization of coherent heat transfer across width-modulated nanowaveguides with calculations and machine learning

Optimization of heat transfer at the nanoscale is necessary for efficient modern technology applications in nanoelectronics, energy conversion, and quantum technologies. In such applications, phonons dominate thermal transport and optimal performance requires minimum phonon conduction. Coherent phonon conduction is minimized by maximum disorder in the aperiodic modulation profile of width-modulated nanowaveguides, according to a physics rule. It is minimized for moderate disorder against physics intuition in composite nanostructures. Such counter behaviors call for a better understanding of the optimization of phonon transport in non-uniform nanostructures. We have explored mechanisms underlying the optimization of width-modulated nanowaveguides with calculations and machine learning, and we report on generic behavior. We show that the distribution of the thermal conductance among the aperiodic width-modulation configurations is controlled by the modulation degree irrespective of choices of constituent material, width-modulation-geometry, and composition constraints. The efficiency of Bayesian optimization is evaluated against increasing temperature and sample size. It is found that it decreases with increasing temperature due to thermal broadening of the thermal conductance distribution. It shows weak dependence on temperature in samples with high discreteness in the distribution spectrum. Our work provides new physics insight and indicates research pathways to optimize heat transfer in non-uniform nanostructures.
