SHORT OVERVIEW OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND PROCESS OPTIMISATION
 
 Prof. John D. Kechagias
 Editor in Chief, International Journal of Experimental Design and Process Optimisation (IJEDPO)
 
 Experimental design methodology aims to provide researchers with the statistical tools to analyse and understand engineering and cross-disciplinary problems, predominantly in quality or process optimisation issues. In brief, the primary concern of a researcher who wishes to optimise a process is decisions made on matters such as the studied experimental area by defining the variable parameters (inputs) and their values. This procedure is unique; not a routine, especially when the cost, time and environmental impact of the processes are significant aspects... More

COVID-19

Scholarly publishing community has role to play in protecting U.S. healthcare workers from COVID-19: non-medical professionals asked to donate protective supplies to GetUsPPE.org

Critical PPE items such as facemasks, goggles, gloves, and protective gowns are stockpiled in offices and facilities that have been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic: from labs in universities and corporations, to machine shops, cleanrooms and engineering and construction job sites.

The website GetUsPPE.org is coordinating the transfer of unused PPE from private organisations to the healthcare facilities requesting them in the same vicinity.

GetUsPPE.org is a grassroots organisation led by emergency medicine physicians, working to give all PPE proceeds to the frontline healthcare workers most in need.

GetUsPPE.org needs:

  • Surgical masks
  • Goggles
  • Face shields
  • Nitrile gloves
  • Isolation gowns
  • Disinfectant wipes
  • Hand sanitiser
  • Scrubs
  • Disposable shoe covers
  • Nasopharyngeal swabs
  • Respirators

Please visit GetUsPPE.org for details of how you can help.
