Use the Internet or the Strayer Library to research a company for which you would like to work. Focus your research on the selected company’s approach to recruiting, selecting, training, and managing its workers.Note: You may use the same company you selected for your assignment in Week 3.RequirementsWrite a 4–5-page paper in which you:Describe (briefly) the company you researched.Evaluate the effectiveness of the company’s recruiting efforts.Suggest two recommendations for improving the company’s recruiting efforts.Analyze the company’s selection process.Recommend two areas for improving the company’s selection process.Assess the general effectiveness of human resource planning and performance management systems.Determine the level of influence that training and talent management have on the company’s labor force

Draft a contract to minimize your company’s overall risk for one of the methods you chose to conduct business (for example, if you chose to license a patent and export the goods, you can draft either a licensing agreement or a trade/sales agreement. Or if you chose to build a factory in a foreign country and import raw materials for production, you can draft a business contract or a sales agreement). Remember to consider:definite terms (who? What? How much? How many? How long?)responsibilities of partieschoice of law clauseforum/venue clause – dispute resolution clausewhat constitutes a fundamental breachallocation of risk (risk of loss) – insurance, cost, freightremedies, how to calculate damages

Given that a randomly selected worker is a male, find the probability that a worker has less than one month’s income set aside for emergencies.c. Given that a randomly selected worker has one month’s income or more set aside for emergencies, find the probability that the worker is a female.d. Are the events ”having less than one month’s income saved” and ”being male” independent or dependent? Explain.3. Use the following information for problems 3a-3c. The percentage distribution of the number of occupants in vehicles traveling down a highway is shown in the pie chart (see Figure 1). (source: Washington State Department of Transportation.)

MATERIAL SELECTION FOR A RIPPERSelect the material for a ripper to be used in a bulldozer. The ripper works as a beam with a distributed load. The maximum working depth of the ripper is 0.6 m and the maximum load is the traction force of the bulldozer (60 kN). Figure 2 shows views of both ripper and bulldozer as well as simplified view to be used in this exercise. This is an open exercise.(a) (b) (c)Figure 2: (a) ripper’s view, (b) schematic simplified diagram of ripper, (c) bulldozer view.You will need to decide extra constraints and find out the equations for a beam. You will need to decide your objective and to compare the results with real world materials. You will need to translate the problem, derive the performance index or indexes, select some screening constraint and select the actual material graphically.You have to document the whole selection process.[Hint 1]: You may select materials with minimum mass or minimum cost or both as your objective. You will have to decide your own dimensions for the ripper and the constraints.[Hint 2]: 20 percent of the total mark for this question will be assessed for the clear definition of the problem and for writing down the necessary equations used in the problem.[Hint 3]: 40 percent of the total mark for this question will be assessed for the derivation of the material index with correct material performance equation.[Hint 4]: 40 percent of the total mark for this question will be assessed to the use of GRANTA EduPack for the material selection.Reminder , as it is an open exercise, each student is expected to have a unique solution as definition of the problem will be unique.

CPE Pressure Vessels Limited Company manufacturers pressure vessel for oil, gas, petrochemical, nuclear and water industries as shown in Figure 3 (length L, diameter 2R, hemispherical ends). As a design engineer of the CPE company you have been asked to design a pressure vessel for the food manufacturing industry. The main objective of the work is to select a suitable material for the outer wall of the pressure vessel. When the pressure vessel is fully assembled it resemble as a cylindrical shape having an external pressure, p. The design of the outer wall of the cylindrical pressure tank and the selected material should resist the external pressure. The radius of the pressure tank is 10 m. The outer wall containing the pressure, p should not fail either by yielding or by fast fracture. The size of the possible largest crack contained in the outer wall is ac.Figure 3: Pressure vessel for the food manufacturing companyMost of the pressure vessels are made of high strength alloy steel, and they are heavy. You are asked to explore the potential of alternative materials for lighter pressure vessels, recognizing there must be a trade-off between mass and cost – if it is too expensive, the manufacturing company will not want it even if it is lighterMaterials properties that are available for ranking materials are: density (?); Yield strength (?y); Critical stress intensity factor or fracture toughness of the material (????????????). The volume of material can be evaluated with respect to the surface area and the thickness of the cylindrical outer wall.You will need to decide your own dimensions, extra constraints and find out the equations for yielding and fast fracture of the pressure vessel. In order to translate the right material selection for the food processing application into a real engineering problem you need to answer the following questions:(a) Translation of problem indicating function, objective, constraints and free variables? You need to provide a clear definition to the problem.(6 marks)(b) Derive the performance material index for failure and select materially graphically. Discuss the implication of two performance index for the selection of one material.(10 marks)(c) Explain and justify with supporting evidence (both numerical and graphically) what would happen to the performance index if both the ends of the pressure vessel are closed.

Next, conduct additional research to learn what has already been done to address this problem within the organization. Ask questions and interview individuals who assisted with the implementation of previous solutions used to address the problem. Prior to meeting with individuals, develop a list of questions about previous solutions. Consider factors such as customer importance, efficiency, quality, employee satisfaction, and cost effectiveness. You will want to make sure you ask questions that allow you to gather measurable data and include information about how successful previous solution options were in addressing each of the problems. When you have completed your research, the findings should be summarized using at least one chart or graph that represents the data you have collected. Use the Topic Materials for assistance with creating Excel graphs and charts that can be used to illustrate your findings.

The last step in determining potential solutions is to conduct external research. Using Internet and industry resources, research ways that other companies have addressed this issue or one very similar to it. Look for specific information related to the customer response, efficiency, quality, employee satisfaction, and cost effectiveness of solutions others have implemented. Find at least five potential solutions you can consider for solving the problem you have identified. Your goal in conducting this research is to find practical examples and measurable data related to how other companies and related industries have resolved the same problem or one very similar to it. When you have completed your research, the findings should be summarized using at least one chart or graph that represents the data you have collected. Use the Topic Materials for assistance with creating Excel graphs and charts that can be used to illustrate your findings.The data collection Excel spreadsheet and the three data summary charts/graphs you have created from the research you have conducted should be submitted to your instructor.The three charts/graphs you create will be used again in your Business Proposal Presentation in Topic 7 and the Final Business Proposal you will submit in Topic 8.
