Adoption of AI-powered Industrial Robots in Auto Component Manufacturing CompaniesPillai, R., Sivathanu, B., Mariani, M., Rana, Nripendra P., Yang, B., Dwivedi, Y.K. 08 October 2020 (has links)
Yes / The usage of AI-empowered Industrial Robots (InRos) is booming in the Auto Component Manufacturing Companies (ACMCs) across the globe. Based on a model leveraging the Technology, Organisation, and Environment (TOE) framework, this work examines the adoption of InRos in ACMCs in the context of an emerging economy. This research scrutinizes the adoption intention and potential use of InRos in ACMCs through a survey of 460 senior managers and owners of ACMCs in India. The findings indicate that perceived compatibility, external pressure, perceived benefits and support from vendors are critical predictors of InRos adoption intention. Interestingly, the study also reveals that IT infrastructure and government support do not influence InRos adoption intention. Furthermore, the analysis suggests that perceived cost issues negatively moderate the relationship between the adoption intention and potential use of InRos in ACMCs. This study offers a theoretical contribution as it deploys the traditional TOE framework and discovers counter-intuitively that IT resources are not a major driver of technology adoption: as such, it suggests that a more comprehensive framework than the traditional RBV should be adopted. The work provides managerial recommendations for managers, shedding light on the antecedents of adoption intention and potential use of InRos at ACMCs in a country where the adoption of InRos is in a nascent stage.

An Investigation Into the Design Qualities, Ecological Requirements, and Potential Use of Some Native Trees and Shrubs of the Mountains of Northeastern UtahSutton, Richard K. 01 May 1974 (has links)
Digestion rates have been measured for brown trout (Salmo trutta Linn.) during summer, fall, winter and spring seasons on the Blacksmith Fork River, Utah. Exponential rates of digestion varied from a gradual rate of -0.2372 to an accelerated rate of -0.6808. Factors found to affect digestion rate most were water temperature and the amount of food in the stomach. The affect of temperature was not clearly isolated. However, the amount of food in the stomach, at the beginning of the digestion study, appeared to have the most pronounced effect. Four of the five digestion rate measurements, with high coefficients 'of determination, were highly correlated to changes in the amount of food in the stomach. A stomach capacity study was also conducted during the winter season. A comparison of the results of the present study with those of an earlier study conducted during the summer season exhibited two nearly parallel non-linear regression lines. The differences in stomach capacity ranged from only 0.02 cc at 170 mm fork length to 0.93 cc at 340 mm fork length. Throughout the 170 to 340 mm size range, stomach capacities were smaller in the present study than those reported in the earlier study. Although some differences in method of determining stomach capacity did occur, these differences should have led to larger stomach capacities in this study. Since season of collection was different, it is suspected that was largely responsible for these differences. Therefore, the results of the stomach capacity study indicate that stomach capacities can be expected to change between summer and winter seasons. However, these changes may not be significant.

Nesse sentido, com vistas à avaliação do uso atual e potencial das águas subterrâneas do Sistema Aquífero Guarani (SAG) no Estado de São Paulo, buscou-se levantar uma larga gama de informações sobre sua utilização e ocorrência. Assim, foram utilizados dados coletados em 1.389 poços que explotam o SAG, para os mais diversos tipos de usos, bem como informações constantes de relatórios oficiais sobre o sistema de abastecimento público nos municípios distribuídos no Estado de São Paulo. Para armazenagem, manipulação, visualização e análise de dados espaciais, utilizou-se o sistema de informações geográficas (SIG). Cerca de 65% dos poços cadastrados são utilizados para o consumo humano (público e doméstico). Em termos volumétricos, o consumo público representa 67% do total extraído, seguido pelos usos industrial, doméstico, rural e recreacional, com 21,7%, 6,1%, 2,8% e 0,6%, respectivamente. Em 2007, havia um total de 5.058.041 habitantes consumidores efetivos do SAG, que explotavam um volume anual estimado de aproximadamente 563 milhões de m3. Para a análise potencial do uso do SAG, foram simulados dois cenários. No primeiro, as projeções indicam que em 2020 os consumidores do sistema aquífero serão cerca de 5.830.011 habitantes, e sua explotação se dará a um volume aproximado de 6,4 x 108 m3/ano, ou 45% acima da reserva subterrânea ativa.

In this way, the evaluation of the current and potential usages of waters from Guarani Aquifer System (SAG) in São Paulo State, was based on a large amount of data from drilling wells and official reports.. The analysis was accomplished using information collected from a survey of 1.389 wells including the different types of water usages and from municipal records of groundwater production. The geographic information system (GIS) was used for storage, manipulation, visualization and analysis of georeferenced data. About 65% of water wells is presently used for human consumption (public and domestic usages); Volumetrically, public consumption peaks to 67%, remaining 21.7%, 6.1%, 2.8% and 0.6% for industrial, domestic, rural and recreational usages, respectively. About 5058041 inhabitants directly makes use of water produced from GAS with a consumption of approximately 563 million m3 of water/year. For the analysis of the potential use of waters from GAS two scenarios were simulated. In one, the projections indicate that by 2020 consumers of the aquifer will be 5830011, and the aquifer system will be exploited to a volume of about 6.4 x 108 m3/year, or 45% above its groundwater active reserve. The other scenario was simulated for the zones ZA (outcrop zone) and ZC (confinement zone close to ZA): the results indicate a population of 2506905 that will consume a volume of 4.1 x 108 m3 by 2020 or nearly 95% of all estimated active reserve of the aquifer.
