Four Products Case Question 1. Which of the four products are you most optimistic about in terms of likely success? Why? Answer: I really like two ideas presented in the case: Stave Jigsaw Puzzle and Polytrack. Both are dealing with big money and luxury; while one is aimed to please‚ impress and entertain real “big wallets” owners‚ the other seems to be a real innovative breakthrough in equestrian sport. Stave Puzzle attracts me with a perfect match of the target market – rich fine people who

The word padparadscha is derived from a Sanskrit term ‘padma raga’ which means (Padma= Lotus‚ Range= Color) the color of lotus flower. The padparadscha is a gemstone variety of mineral corundum. It was first mined in Sri Lanka. This type of gemstones belongs to the family of sapphires. It is the rarest of all the colors of sapphires. It is believed that this gemstone is the most durable. Padparadscha is cut in a number of shapes such as circle‚ cushion and oval. The colour tone is available from

SMART MATERIALS 1. Introduction The primary characteristic of a ‘‘smart material’’ is that it has the ability to respond to external stimuli in a technically useful and technically controlled way. The words ‘‘technically useful’’ and ‘‘technically controlled’’ are emphasized since all materials respond to external stimuli of some sort or other (as a simple example‚ all materials respond to temperature by changing their volume)‚ however‚ to be considered a ‘‘smart material’’ the response must

made to simulate the semisolid metal process using finite element simulation software. The following simulations were carried out on Aluminum alloy A356 to determine the effect of initial temperature of the billet on the forging load. The simulations were carried out at different temperatures between the solidus and liquidus temperature range of the alloy. The position of the billet on the bottom die was determined by placing it in different positions and also for various temperatures. The present

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON CORROSION OF CERMETS ALLOY ABSTRACT Tungsten carbides (WC) are widely used as wear resistant components such as seal‚ valves‚ rings‚ nozzle and bearings. But in some processing operations‚ the environment necessarily includes severe corrosion or extremes of temperatures. In this research‚ commercially cobalt tungsten carbide (WC-6%Co) and nickel tungsten carbide (WC-9%Ni) was examined in seawater (3.5% salinity) to know the effect of temperature on corrosion for both

a commodity product and competing primarily on price and its closeness to the customer led it to discover market opportunities that it had the expertise to capitalise on. The first such product was Three-M-Ite™ Abrasive - an abrasive cloth using aluminium oxide for durability in place of a natural abrasive. This was followed by waterproof sandpaper - an idea bought from an inventor who subsequently came to work for 3M. This was followed shortly by Wetordry™ - a product designed for use by the car

Some of the types of these include piezoelectric materials‚ magneto-rheostatic materials‚ electro-rheostatic materials‚ and shape memory alloys piezoelectric‚ Varieties of smart materials already exist‚ and research is being carried out extensively to derive new materials. Applications of various types of smart materials are clearly explained. Some of applications of already existing
