Demand sensing case study

This reaction is important because it provides oxaloacetate for the citric acid cycle when the supplies have run low because of the demands of biosynthesis. It is also the enzyme that catalyzes the first step in gluconeogenesis, the pathway that provides the body with needed glucose in times of starvation or periods of exercise that deplete glycogen stores. But somehow these descriptions don t fill us with a sense of the importance of this enzyme and its jobs. It is not until we investigate a case study of a child born with pyruvate carboxylase deficiency that we see the full impact of this enzyme. 

This has created a new branch of investigation, centered on the study of different substances, to establish which are the most effective in providing an optimal mixture for maximum inhibitor efficiency for a specific alloy system. In this sense, these mixtures would satisfy the demands of the steel surface finishing industry in which the surface cleaning and pickling play an important role. In the case of the REM mixtures and organic compounds, the improvements described up to the present seem to be a consequence of the formation of a layer that covers a great part of the surface and which is composed of both species. Nevertheless, determination of the mechanism by which the corrosion kinetics is reduced is... 

Whether the institutional and business perspectives are all rational and productive - even in an economic sense - is questionable. While the focus on quantification and the use of models are a core part of engineering practices, studies of the demand for and use of models tend to show a different picture. As the study by Juhl demonstrates, models are often not directly related to or even productive for - in this case - the optimization of industrial production, but modelling runs as a parallel activity stream within the company s application enviromnent, supporting the vision of optimization and governance of technology and production. This perspective contrasts the linear view that science and theoretical models are the tools and preconditions for optimization and innovation.
