How would you work out the component reliability for 2 identical components in parallel when you have the system reliabilty figure?
Thank you so much, you bring good to the word teacher!
Thank you so so much, I really appreciate you. You bring honour to the word professor. I feel lucky to learn from you. ❤ I hope your students know how lucky they are!
Whole world's creator and safer supremist God bless you all always and you all always remember him with your pure heart and love,
Hi 👋🏼 How did you calculate reliability? From 0 to 1?
Well explained
Thank you so much,this so informative 🙌🏻🙌🏻
very helpful thank you!
Hi, I was curious to know what would happen if L d > Q? Q being order quantity. L d (ROP). thanks!
Thanks, Dr.
Clear undurstaning, simple and neat ...
Pretty good exercise
Very informative! I have a project right now regarding this and it really helped me realize some things.
nothing will be better than this!
Why did u divide the bottle neck by 2
I have the same question, why divide the bottleneck?
How can you solve these bottlenecks?
How is the expected profit calculated?
Grande pelaito sabroso
Wonderful explanation
thank youu you have super clear explanation 🙏🏻🥹🧡
Thanks you very much for this explanation. God bless you more
Very good concept, I don't care the result is 0.24 or 0.28, that's great lesson!!! Thank you!
Labor productivity has increased from 0.25% to 0.4375% the change is = (0.4375-0.25)/0.25 = 0.75 or 0.75x100= 75% increase in labor productivity. •Multifactor productivity has increase from 0.0077 to 0.0097 •The change is = (0.0097-0.0077)/0.0077 = 0.26 or 0.26x100 = 26% To solve it at home: If the overhead cost go to $960 (rather than $800), what is the multifactor productivity?

Help me derive the quantity discount model
great Video!
Thank you!
This helped in my operations management exams yesterday. Thank you professor
Great overview and really helpful for me right now. Just started a new role and can see a huge backlog of C.I improvements, which is great right, people are suggesting improvements. The only problem is we are unable to service them fast enough. Now begins my journey to discover the bottleneck!
This is amazing
Nice explanation, Thanks
And how does it forecast the first forecast of the sequence?
You can pick a starting point arbitrarily using naive, moving average, or other approach.
you sir a genius even if its by written in paper!!!! definitely recalled my engineering concepts simply!
Thank you
Im making you alot of ad revenue from studying all these videos! btw I appreciate how you mentioned common mistakes and how to avoid them saved me a lot of suffering
Sir, If I am doing double exponential smoothing 5 period moving average with a software program--after 5 period exponential moving average is calculated say (X) does computer do second calculation with data X and (X-t1) (X-t2) (X-t3) (X-t4)- - - - forgive me,I went to college 50 years ago..(X-t1) is exponential moving average one period prior & so on.
Camera to far
Thank you sir May God bless you
How do you get total demand 1200?
Ok… so it’s 2023 now and my store brand butter (left on counter to for 24 hours at 70 degrees) is so hard that I had to use a blow dryer on it to mix it with sugar…. I’m kinda not buying this story
Actually palmitic acid use in dairy is down significantly due to pricing and pressure to not use it. I don't doubt your feeling that butter is harder but we don't understand where and why. It is unlikely to be due to palmitic acid use.
This was really helpful, thank you :)
Thank you
Many thanks, great video!
Thank you so much I have one question how to a form product dd for the least period is given below period dd period 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 dd 44,52,50,54,55,55,60,56,62 develop a linear trend equation ,predict the dd value for the next period and find the regression equation solution can you help me please
you helped me a lot… thank you so much!
Thank you
Thank you
thank you!
Failure rate and unreliability are not the same. The former is the inverse of mtbf and the latter is the cumulative density function (1 - reliability).
You're a hero, thank you very much.
