Open-Channel Flow

Open-Channel Flow

Subhash C. Jain

John Wiley Sons Inc
2000
sidottu
A clear, up-to-date presentation of the principles of flow in open channels A fundamental knowledge of flow in open channels is essential for the planning and design of systems to manage water resources. Open-Channel Flow conveys this knowledge through the use of practical problems that can be solved either analytically or by simple numerical methods that do not require the use of computer software. This completely up-to-date text includes several features not found in any other book on the subject. It derives one- dimensional equations of motion using both a simplified approach and a rigorous approach, and it explains the distinction between the momentum and mechanical energy equations. The author places great emphasis on identifying the types and locations of the control sections that are essential in analyzing flow profiles, and he includes a section on recently recognized nonunique flow profiles. Offering numerous worked examples that are helpful in understanding the basic principles and their practical applications, this book: *Presents the latest computational methods for profiling spatially varied and unsteady flow *Includes end-of-section exercises that measure and build understanding *Fully explains governing equations in algebraic and differential form *Brings sluice-gate analysis completely up to date *Covers artificial channel controls such as weirs, spillways, and gates, and special topics such as transitions in supercritical flow and flow through culverts Written in metric units throughout, this excellent learning tool for senior- and graduate-level students in civil and environmental engineering programs is also a useful reference for practicing civil and environmental engineers.

This new book fills a gap in the collection of published materials in export marketing. . . . Throughout the book the author raises important questions that exporters need to answer in formulating strategies. The chapters on identifying export markets provide practical approaches on the formulation of such strategies, starting with an analysis of trade data. . . . On the basis of the data, exporters can build a market and product profile, set up a market selection matrix, assess their export strengths and weaknesses, and design a market position map, thereby enabling them to develop export strateges. . . . a valuable source for developing export strategies. International Trade ForumAs the U.S. trade balance continues to run large, record-setting deficits, the pressure on businesses to export will continue to mount. This book, written for marketing and strategic planning executives, outlines a step-by-step procedure for formulating a successful export strategy. Jain demonstrates how to analyze relevant information about the prospective customer, the competition, and one's own company; how to apply basic marketing decisions to the export environment; and how to implement key aspects of export strategy. Throughout, he identifies the government and nongovernment sources for information a company needs to formulate an effective export strategy.Jain begins with a historical overview of U.S. trade that sets the context for the discussion that follows. He examines America's traditionally low interest in exporting, trade barriers, emerging trade issues for the 1990s, and influential developments in the liberalization of worldwide trade. He then develops his export strategy framework, addressing such critical issues as locating viable foreign markets, segmentation and positioning, timing, and how to compete. The four basic aspects of an export strategy--product, price, distribution, and promotion--are discussed in-depth. For each, Jain offers workable, practical advice for the firm new to exporting: when and how to customize products, methods of pricing, price quotations, pro forma invoicing, sources of distribution channels, managing export channels, alternative promotion media, and more. Finally, drawing upon the experiences of successful exporters, Jain presents guidelines for effective exporting.
Toward a Global Business Confederation

Toward a Global Business Confederation

Subhash C. Jain

In the era of globalization, the role of multinational corporations (MNCs) is increasing in importance while the influence of nation-states is in a corresponding decline. Jain contends that this trend will benefit the cause of worldwide economic prosperity, which MNCs alone are positioned to deliver. The increasing availability of global capital, coupled with advances in computing and communications technology, has accelerated the process of doing business anywhere and everywhere. At the same time, barriers to foreign entities wishing to conduct business in Russia, China, India, Brazil, and Indonesia are falling away.As the process of globalization marches on, what can be done to ensure that material prosperity is the result? A Global Business Confederation, Jain argues, should be established to design rules that apply worldwide and that encourage MNCs to generate global economic prosperity in a manner responsive to cultural, social, and humanitarian concerns.

This book traces the history of India's progress since its independence in 1947 and advances strategies for continuing economic growth. Insiders and outsiders that have criticized India for slow economic growth fail to recognize all it has achieved in the last seven decades, including handling the migration of over 8 million people from Pakistan, integrating over 600 princely states into the union, managing a multi-language population into one nation and resolving the food problem. The end result is a democratic country with a strong institutional foundation. Following the growth strategies outlined in the book and with a strong leadership, India has the potential to stand out as the third largest economy in the world in the next 25 to 30 years.Subhash Jain and Ben Kedia delve into India's development and emergence as an economic power, one of the three countries that can make its own supercomputers, one of the six countries that can launch satellites and that has the second largest small car market in the world. They discuss its need for innovative initiatives and top leadership to pursue an agenda of economic growth, and monitored policies to encourage entrepreneurship at all levels. With an emphasis on the new leadership of Prime Minister Modi, the book identifies policies that need to be adopted to make India s future bright and prosperous. This book is a critical resource for students and scholars interested in India and invested in its progress, as well as policymakers, government officials and corporations considering India as a place to expand and do business.

Markets in Third World countries are growing rapidly and in the next several decades will offer tremendous business opportunities. Firms aspiring to be a part of this growth must establish their presence in these markets today or lose the opportunity forever. Market Evolution in Developing Countries illustrates how these markets are likely to evolve as mass markets along the lines of advanced nations and examines conditions that affect this evolution. The author develops a model of market evolution based on a general overview of all evolving markets which is then applied and thoroughly discussed with reference to India, a burgeoning market of some 200 million people. Through a conceptual framework of market evolution, this groundbreaking book describes how markets at various stages of development offer different opportunities and thus require different strategies for success. Author Jain outlines strategic moves that American businesses may make to capitalize on such opportunities. He also covers information on policy initiatives developing countries themselves can take to help in the smooth evolution of their markets and specific steps leaders of these countries may take to enable greater growth in their markets.While Market Evolution in Developing Countries uses India as a case study, the strategies for doing business successfully there are equally relevant and easily adaptable for use in other developing countries. Some of the many topics addressed include India’s government and politics, corporate environment, international competitiveness, and changing market behavior, as well as U.S. direct investment in India, Indo-U.S. business relations, and political-legal differences between the U.S. and India. This informative guide also contains a brief historical overview of India, a profile of a middle-class Indian family, and a handy section of cultural tips and other advice for business persons traveling to India to help them cope with business negotiations there. In a readable style, this book provides comprehensive information for all business professionals interested in the vast opportunities available in many Third World countries. Market Evolution in Developing Countries is ideal for international business executives and consultants who wish to review opportunities in these countries and learn how to take advantage of them effectively. It is a basic resource on economic opportunities in developing countries.
Practical Solutions to Global Business Negotiation

Practical Solutions to Global Business Negotiation

One of the most significant developments in recent years has been the emergence of global markets, which has triggered opportunities for multinational firms to seek business across national borders. Global markets offer unlimited opportunities. But competition in these markets is intense. To be globally successful, companies must learn to operate and compete in multiple environments which may be different from the home environment. One important prerequisite for success in foreign markets is the ability to negotiate properly. Global business negotiations are affected by the cultural backgrounds of the negotiators, comprising language, cultural conditioning, negotiating style, approaches to problem solving, implicit assumptions, gestures and facial expressions, and the role of ceremony and formality. Therefore, negotiators assigned to deal with their foreign counterparts need a lot of learning and skills. With training and practice such learning and skills can be enhanced. The proposed book offers a practical guide to acquire negotiating skills. The purpose of this book is to provide consistently effective strategies and systematic approaches to negotiations that will dramatically improve international managers as negotiators. The book provides sufficient familiarity with negotiating styles that will help managers identify their unique strength and weaknesses, thus enabling them to interpret and comfortably use the latest advances in the field of negotiation in dealing internationally.

Essentials of Botanical Extraction: Principles and Applications provides a unique, single source of valuable information on the various botanical extraction methods available, from conventional to the use of green and modern extraction technologies including ultrasounds, microwaves, pressurized liquids, and supercritical fluids. Most extracts obtained from botanicals are often poorly characterized with unidentified active or inactive constituents. A wise selection of an extraction strategy is vital to drug discovery from medicinal plants as extraction forms the basic first step in medicinal plant research. This book also explores the mathematical hypotheses and innovations in botanical extractions and analyzes different post extraction operations so that dependency on serendipity is reduced and the same be converted into programmed drug discovery.
Metamodeling

Metamodeling

In recent years, many approximate methods have been developed for analyzing queueing models of complex computer systems. These ad hoc methods usually focus on specific aspects of system operation, and appear to be different from one another, making it difficult to see the underlying principles of model development, to understand the relationship between different models of the same system, or to apply the existing methods to new situations. This book presents the first systematic study of approximation methods in queueing network modeling and of the way these methods are developed. Metamodeling identifies the underlying modeling process and provides tools and techniques for model development that will allow students and researchers to sort through the many different methods, understand them, and apply them to new problems. Using the metamodeling characterization, the book surveys and classifies a large number of approximation methods, catalogs a large number of useful model transformations, characterizes iterative solution procedures and gives theorems for proofs of convergence. This work has led to several other significant results, most notably: an approximation that works well for systems containing semaphores that serialize processes; and the discovery of multiple stable operating points for systems in which there are processes at several priority levels.ContentsQueueing Network Models of Computer Systems * The Structure of the Modeling Process * Behavior Sequence Transformations and Models with Shadow Servers * State Space Transformations * Consistent Solution, Iteration, and ConvergenceThis book inaugurates the MIT Press series in Computer Systems (Research Reports and Notes), edited by Herb Schwetman.

Stochastic Scheduling

Stochastic Scheduling

Subhash C. Sarin; Balaji Nagarajan; Lingrui Liao

Cambridge University Press
2010
sidottu
Stochastic scheduling is in the area of production scheduling. There is a dearth of work that analyzes the variability of schedules. In a stochastic environment, in which the processing time of a job is not known with certainty, a schedule is typically analyzed based on the expected value of a performance measure. This book addresses this problem and presents algorithms to determine the variability of a schedule under various machine configurations and objective functions. It is intended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in manufacturing, operations management, applied mathematics, and computer science, and it is also a good reference book for practitioners. Computer software containing the algorithms is provided on an accompanying website for ease of student and user implementation.
Data Envelopment Analysis

Data Envelopment Analysis

Subhash C. Ray

Cambridge University Press

sidottu
Using the neo-classical theory of production economics as the analytical framework, this book, first published in 2004, provides a unified and easily comprehensible, yet fairly rigorous, exposition of the core literature on data envelopment analysis (DEA) for readers based in different disciplines. The various DEA models are developed as nonparametric alternatives to the econometric models. Apart from the standard fare consisting of the basic input- and output-oriented DEA models formulated by Charnes, Cooper, and Rhodes, and Banker, Charnes, and Cooper, the book covers developments such as the directional distance function, free disposal hull (FDH) analysis, non-radial measures of efficiency, multiplier bounds, mergers and break-up of firms, and measurement of productivity change through the Malmquist total factor productivity index. The chapter on efficiency measurement using market prices provides the critical link between DEA and the neo-classical theory of a competitive firm. The book also covers several forms of stochastic DEA in detail.

Nonparametric Measurement of Productivity Growth and Technical Change
Nonparametric Measurement of Productivity Growth and Technical Change explains how to isolate technical progress, scale effects, and efficiency changes as three distinct components of productivity change measured empirically using the nonparametric method of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Section 2 provides a brief theoretical background, starting from the production possibility set, listing the basic assumptions about the reference technology, and defining the Shephard output and input distance functions, as well as technical change as shifts in the frontier of the production possibility set. Section 3 demonstrates how total factor productivity can be measured and decomposed into technical change, technical efficiency change, and scale effects using parametrically specified production, cost, profit, or distance functions. Section 4 explains the nonparametric method of DEA and formulates appropriate models for measuring input- or output-oriented technical efficiency, cost efficiency, and profit efficiency. Section 5 considers productivity change in discrete time. Section 6 explains the relationship between alternative productivity indexes and the Luenberger productivity indicator. Finally, Section 7 concludes with a summary and acknowledges several important topics related to the nonparametric measurement of productivity change not covered in this monograph, including the explicit accommodation of random noise in the DEA models, accounting for bad outputs, and the aggregation of firm-level measures of productivity change for comparison across groups.
