the Stream visible by selecting the "Eye" icon at the left of the new Stream row. The Stream tabbed dialog appears at the bottom of the application window. Tip: You can manage existing Streams and global Streams options from the Streams List dialog. Add Layer Type checks to your new Stream using the Add New Check icon in the
- don't use same seed for 2 or more streams! —if seeds are bad, streams will overlap and not be independent —right way: select seeds so streams don't overlap at all - example: need 3 streams of 20,000 numbers pick u0 as seed for first stream pick u20,000 as seed for second stream pick u40,000 as seed for third stream

Selection of value stream Start the process by selecting a relevant value stream to map. The following starting points can be used in the choice of value stream: It is a recurring value stream in the unit. The value stream is in need of change. The value stream is clear, that is, it is possible to define it with clear limitations.
of us turned to Lean. Value streams are a Lean tool for understanding and visualizing how value is created. Value Stream Identification, Value Stream Mapping, and Value Stream Management are practices for using value streams to learn how to reduce waste, shorten lead times and improve our ability to embrace change.

The SRD is the ultimate axial pile capacity that is experienced during the dynamic conditions of pile driving. Predictions of the SRD are usually calculated by modifying the calculation for the ultimate static axial pile capacity in compression. API RP 2A and ISO 19002 refer to several methods proposed in the literature.
