The PD Process coordinates the specific research activities such as product design, process development, engineering plant design, marketing strategy and desig with the aim of producing an integrated approach to the development of new products. The overall aim is to create a product that an individual consumer or a food manufacturing company or food service organisation will buy. The two parts of product development-the knowledge of the consumer's needs/wants and the knowledge of modern scientific discoveries and technological

The aim of this chapter is to identify the important factors in food product development to be studied in detail in the succeeding chapters. Firstly the different groups of food products are identified as a basis for organising product strategy. Then the published research on the factors in product failure and product success in all types of industries is used to identify the key factors in food product development. This leads into the management of product development at three different levels:

Carbon atoms have the ability to link together and form molecules made up of many carbon atoms. The branch of chemistry that is the study of carbon-containing compounds is known as organic chemistry(有机化学) 13 million known organic compounds and 100,000 new ones are added annually Only 200,000-300,000 known inorganic compounds

I Consider the graph shown in Fig. 15-15. Denote the tree made up of b 6, bs, and b, by t (a)Find all the fundamental loops of this graph corresponding to T (b) Find all the fundamental cutsets of this graph corresponding to t (c) Write the incidence matrix of this graph choose n 4 as the datum

In this chapter we continue our introduction to circuit analysis by studying periodic functions in both the time and frequency domains. Any periodic function may be represented as the sum of an infinite number of sine and cosine functions which are harmonically related. The response of the linear network to the general periodic forcing function may be obtained by superposing the partial responses

In this chapter we will introduce an important frequency is that network function or parameter reaches a maximum value. In certain simple a networks, this occurs when an impedance or admittance is purely real-a condition known as resonance

In this chapter we will extend the concepts which have been presented in the preceding chapter so as to develop general methods of phasor analysis for circuits which are under conditions of sinusoidal steady-state excitation. The methods are very similar to those for resistance circuits which were presented in Chap.2

We define the unit impulse as a function of time which is zero when its argument, generally (t-o), is less than zero; which is also zero when argument is greater than zero; which is infinite when its argument is zero; and which has unit area
