TL;DR: In this article , an algorithm for allocating appropriate resource to job in the MG environment to optimize resource utilization with respect to different parameters like scalability, job completion time, and cost as well.
Abstract: Manufacturing Grid is composed of enormous set of miscellaneous as well as geographically scattered manufacturing resources; those are aggregated as a virtual stage for carrying out far-reaching different types of manufacturing operations. Since the number of heterogeneous manufacturing resources increases in MG environment, so allocating the applicable resources for specific jobs becomes a critical concern. In this work, we propose an algorithm for allocating appropriate resource to job in the MG environment to optimize resource utilization with respect to different parameters like scalability, job completion time, and cost as well. Unlike conventional different types of algorithms, our proposed algorithm captures the resource which is most suitable with respect to all parameters; henceforth, it permits all other further resources to take part in further bid processes, and our recommended algorithm is able to assign the most appropriate and correct resources for jobs completing as well as attain worthy enactment in provisions of effectiveness and helpfulness.

TL;DR: In this article , the effect of varying layer thickness for each specimen on the tensile strength of 3D-printed objects, keeping every other parameter unaltered, has been experimented and analyzed.
Abstract: Three-dimensional printing is a rapid prototyping (RP) technology where layer-by-layer material addition is done in order to get the desired dimensional accuracy at a much faster rate. The paper looks into a very important property of a material, which is its tensile strength. In this regard, the thickness of each layer plays an important role for both conforming dimensional accuracy and to meet required mechanical properties. In this study, the effect of varying layer thickness for each specimen on the tensile strength of 3D-printed object, keeping every other parameter unaltered, has been experimented and analyzed. For this aim, three different printing layer thicknesses, i.e., 0.2, 0.25 and 0.3 mm, have been printed in three specimens of polylactic acid (PLA). The tensile strength of each specimen has been measured by a typical setup that includes a dial gauge and jig setup, which concluded about the applied load that the specimens can withstand before tearing. From the experimental outcomes and the geometrical design of the specimens, the tensile strength of each specimen has been determined. From the study, it is analyzed that ability of the PLA specimens to withstand the load gets significantly high with the lesser layer thickness.
