Magyarországon kiemelt figyelmet és támogatottságot élvez a kézilabda, ez nem csupán hazánkra, hanem Európára is igaz, valamint egyre nagyobb teret hódít magának világszerte is a sportág. Az elmúlt két évtized egyik legnagyobb újdonsága minden a közösségi média, ami megreformálta az információ átadással és a hagyományos marketing tevékenységgel kapcsolatos alap stratégiákat. Ezeken a platformokon gyökeresen változtak meg a tartalomgyártás folyamatai, amire minden sportklubnak érdemes figyelmet fordítania, hiszen jelentős előnyökhöz juthatnak mind gazdasági-, marketing-, közösségépítés terén egyaránt, ha képesek jól kommunikálni. Három egymástól eltérő szinten versenyző sportklub került összehasonlításra kvalitatív vizsgálat során a közösségi média marketing stratégia tevékenységüket tekintve, amelyek név szerint a PICK Szeged, a Balatonfüredi KSE – BFKA Balatonfüred és a DEAC kézilabda csapata. Ezen vizsgálati modellnek az alapkoncepciója arra épült fel, hogy a különböző szinteken, különböző sportszakmai célokért küzdő klubcsapatok online marketingkommunikációs tevékenysége miben tér el egymástól, valamint mik azok a fejlődési lehetőségek, szempontok, amivel lehető leghatékonyabban lehet érvényesülni a social média felületeken. A kézilabda klubcsapatok több kutatási kérdésben is egyetértettek, de felfedezhető volt jelentős különbség is egy-egy területen, amiben a közösségi médiáért felelős szakemberek nem értettek egyet, vagy más nézőpontot képviseltek. Eredményeimet tekintve megállapítható, hogy egy sikeres online marketing stratégia mögött mindig komoly előkészületi és tervező munka áll, valamint a tartalomgyártás diverzifikálása kulcsfontosságú a különböző felületeken, mert a platformok fogyasztói közössége is eltérő egymástól.

Reliability of high demand machines is quite necessary and it can be maintained through proper and timely maintenance, Ultra-low temperature (ULT) freezer is one of those kinds of machines which are in high demand during covid-19 pandemic for the storage of vaccine. The rapid production of vaccines for the prevention of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a worldwide requirement. Now the next challenge is to store the vaccine in a ULT freezer. It’s become really a big problem to store the vaccine which creates the demand of ULT freezer. The present paper investigates a situational based performance of the ULT freezer with the aim to predict the impact of different component failures as well as human errors on the final performance of the same. For the study, it is not possible to extract the parameters (failure rate and repair time) of the components that never failed before. Thus, to overcome this difficulty, here authors use the possibility theory. Authors present the available data in Right triangular fuzzy number with some tolerance as suggested by system analyst. The lambda-tau methodology and arithmetic operations on right triangular generalized fuzzy numbers (RTrFN) are used to find the various performance parameters namely MTTF, MTTR, MTBF, reliability, availability, maintainability (RAM) and ENOF, under fuzzy environment. The proposed model has been studied using possibility theory under working conditions, preventive maintenance as well as under the rest of conditions. This study reveals the most and least critical component of the ULT freezer which helps maintenance department to plan the maintenance strategy accordingly.

In this paper, for the first time, the Laplace Homotopy Perturbation Method (LHPM), which is the coupling of the Laplace transform and the Homotopy Perturbation Method, is employed to solve non-linear time-fractional Klein-Gordon (TFKG) equations. In other words, for the first time in literature, LHPM is used to solve non-linear TFKG equations. First of all, the procedure of LHPM on TFKG with Caputo fractional derivative is developed. Further, the developed approach of LHPM on TFKG is used for two different examples. This in turn proves the versatile nature of the proposed method. In addition, the validity of the approach is proved by comparing the numerical solutions of both examples with their exact solution. Finally, the comparison of relative errors calculated in each example proves the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed method on TFKG equations.

Utilizing soft computing, a maximum power point tracking (maximum PPT) control algorithm is developed, and its performance is compared to that of more traditional Lead Acid battery charging methods such as incremental conductance technique-based maximum PPT. Since the power vs voltage graph of a photovoltaic (PV) cell is nonlinear, a suitable control method seeks to obtain the highest power under dynamic conditions. In order to construct a PV cell with the maximum PPT, a fuzzy logic control approach known as soft computing is used. The cell active energy is used to charge the lead acid battery. A fuzzy logic compares its performance with the incremental conductance technique under dynamic conditions. Moreover, dc to dc converter is required to maintain constant output voltage to charge the battery under low level voltage. A zeta converter is taken to maintain output voltage under various insolation. The significance of algorithm is demonstrated by MATLAB Simulation results and hardware results.

The machine learning model has become a critical consideration in the supply chain. Most of the companies have experienced vari-ous supply chain risks over the past three years. Earlier risk prediction has been performed by supply chain risk management. In this study, an integrated supply chain operations reference (ISCOR) model has been used to evaluate the organization's supply chain risk. Machine learning (ML) has become a hot topic in research and industry in the last few years. With this motivation, we have moved in the direction of a machine learning-based pathway to predict the supply chain risk. The great attraction of this research is that suppliers will understand the associated risk in the activity. This research includes data pre-processing, feature extraction, data transformation, and missing value replacement. The proposed integrated model involves the support vector machine (SVM), k near-est neighbor (k-NN), random forest (RF), decision tree (DT), multiple linear regression (MLR) algorithms, measured performance, and prediction of supply chain risk. Also, these algorithms have performed a comparative analysis under different aspects. Among the other algorithms, the random forest algorithm achieves an accuracy of 99% and has accomplished superior results with a maxi-mum precision of 0.99, recall of 0.99, and F-score of 0.99 with 1% error rate. The model’s prediction indicates that it can be used to find the supply chain risk. Finally, the limitation and the challenges discussed also provide an outlook for future research direction to perform effective management to mitigate the risk.

To assure the reliability and quality of the final product, testing is an essential and crucial part in the software development cycle. During this process, fault correction/detection activities are carried out to increase the reliability of the software. The non-homogeneous Poisson Process (NHPP) is the basis of the investigated software reliability growth models (SRGMs), which are based on the supposition that the number of faults found is affected by the amount of code covered during testing and that the amount of code covered during testing depends on the testing effort expended. This research takes into consideration several testing coverage functions: exponential, delayed S-shaped and logistic distributions, to propose three SRGMs that are based on testing efforts. For testing effort expenditure Weibull distribution has been employed. Two real failure datasets have been utilised to validate the proposed models, and their performance is evaluated using four goodness-of-fit metrics, including predictive ratio risk (PRR), coefficient of determination (R^2 ), predictive power (PP) and mean square error (MSE). Sensitivity analysis of cost requirement-based release time of software for exponential function has been done by using a genetic algorithm, which minimized the overall cost of the software subject to the requirement for reliability.

Food supply chain management has become a remarkable issue due to the increasing food waste caused by globalization and population growth. It is essential to gain understanding of the drivers of circular economy in food supply chains and investigate stimulating factors in the development of circular food supply chains. Thus, this study conducted a systematic literature review from 2008 to 2020, including an analysis of 137 articles performed on data to answer specific research questions regarding circular food supply chain drivers. Drivers for transition to circular economy in food supply chains are presented in five main categories with 22 sub-drivers. This research contributes to the existing literature by presenting a novel approach to digital transformation in smart food supply chains through the integration of Industry 4.0 technologies. The findings present potential drivers of circular economy in food supply chains for digital transformation. This study also ensures operational efficiencies by digital technologies in food supply chains that can be beneficial for practitioners.

Quality is essential in today’s competitive market to ensure customers are happy; recent research shows that about 90% of customers think quality is just as important as price when purchasing. Total quality management (TQM) has been a boon to the economies of many countries. Different tools and methods are used in TQM to give customers the best quality. However, there are some challenges that manufacturing organizations face when implementing these tools. Much research has been done on MSME sector, so far as label manufacturers are concerned, there has yet to be any research on a national or international level. In this study, we found 66 barriers to programs to improve quality in the label printing industry. We have used fuzzy MICMAC analysis and total interpretive modeling (TISM) to make a structural model. Our research paper provides an easy-to-use methodology and critically analyses the biggest obstacles to the successful application of TQM in the flexographic printing industry. Our research identified ten issues with the implementation of TQM in this industry. The paper has identified the interdependencies of the above variables. The findings of this research will aid in future planning, particularly in E-commerce and the pharmaceutical industry, where proper label printing is crucial.

This article targets to unriddle the problem of a non-cooperative fully fuzzified ’Zero Sum Two Person Matrix Game’ (ZSTPMG) with payoff matrix equipped with Trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TrFNs). To achieve the target a unique and novel decomposition technique has been introduced. First, we develop two auxiliaries fully fuzzified linear programming problem (FFLPP) models for both the players and then we decompose these two FFLPP models into four linear programming (LP) models each, for both the players. These eight LP models are then solved by using the software TORA-2.0. The solutions of these eight LP models ascertain the optimal strategies and the optimal value of the fully fuzzified ZSTPMG for both the players. Our technique has an advantage over the existing ones as it can solve fully fuzzified ZSTPMG with all kind of TrFNs such as symmetric, asymmetric, positive or negative TrFNs. To establish this fact, the proposed methodology has been illustrated by taking three numericals equipped with various kinds of TrFNs.

Fatigue failure of wires is a frequent issue that evolves over time as a result of utilizing the profile under variable stress and temperature. In this article, an innovative study makes it possible to propose a protective tool for metal profiles against fatigue using shape memory alloys (SMA). Smart actuators like SMA are able to push back sudden stresses above the elastic limit, therefore, are characterized by high resistance to fatigue and even against corrosion due to their strong thermomechanical coupling. Besides, the study provides the results necessary to add a layer based on the shape memory tube to protect the important connectors for industrial systems and automotive industries. The conductivity of electrical current in various electronic devices depends on the copper material, which is good at conducting electricity and heat but weak against mechanical forces and hence easily susceptible to fatigue. Thereby, the elastic regime of copper is different from that of SMA, and in order to adapt the properties of two materials, a mathematical study can describe the behaviour of two combined systems is important for the analysis of the cyclic effect and for adapting the proposed actuator in wiring technology. Therefore, the study shows the great potential of the proposed SMA tube with its superelastic behaviour to increase the predicted lifespan of metallic wires against corrosion and fatigue. The lifetime of the conduction system with the protective SMA is increased remarkably and can reach up to 105cycles under the action of the stress of an amplitude of 550 MPa, the finite element simulation shows that the system of SMA combined with a 4 mm wire undergoing significant stress up to 490 MPa that can reach a deformation of 7% and return to the initial state without residual deformation. The simulation's results look at the evolution of stress, strain, fatigue lifetimes, and anticipated damage, and they match the experimental results of SMA tube properties rather well. Consequently, the verification of the proposed model confirms the improvement in the lifespan of studied wires compared to wires without SMA encapsulation.
