Abstract: Nuclear radiation detection laboratories are confronted with huge
number of products to be analyzed for dangerous radiation levels. Since the
precision in determining the right level of radioactivity for a given
product is directly proportional to the time allocated for that particular
product, then the limited working hours for these laboratories become the
scarce resource. In this paper, a nonlinear constrained model is developed
to find the optimal allocation of time for each product in order to obtain
the best possible estimate for the level of radiation for each given
product. A validation procedure for this model was carried out using special
cases.

Abstract: In this paper, a full factorial design is used to show the
statistical significance of an effect that four specific factors exerts on
the size of defect in a tufting process. The objective is to minimize the
size of defect by adjusting these four factors. An equation is also
developed to be used for predicting the size of defect in the tufting
process.
