Osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip is the most common joint disease in elderly people and associated with significant physical disability. Pain relief is a primary treatment of hip OA. When the patient with hip OA has failed medical treatment modalities and remains in pain, the patient should be referred for hip replacement surgery in which the damaged surfaces of the joint is removed and replaced with a set of artificial ball-and-socket implants. In this research, a proposition for Additive Manufacturing (AM) is advocated to produce the bone implant to enhance the customer satisfaction along with minimization of costs. AM primarily differs from traditional material removal process because it creates product by successive deposits of material layer by layer. Because of this difference, the cost and operational methodologies are distinct from traditional manufacturing. For this reason, additive manufacturing is adopted for this artificial bone manufacturing and a stochastic optimization model is proposed to help a manufacturer decide when AM is best for them.

This Research work explores the effective teaching method using a single case study design and produces a plenty of information about students requirements, teachers recommendations and some teaching methods and learning styles .The resulting analysis provides a complete teaching method that may develop teacher student learning interface as well as may satisfy both student’s requirements and the recommendations of teacher. The analysis also specifies the component essential to develop the relationship between teacher and students as well as the learning environment. In this analysis at first some literature review is done to know the aspects of teaching and learning methods and also different types of teaching and learning methods. From this it is easy to understand what should be the focus of learning and the strategy that can help students to empower themselves with their own thinking power .Then the survey is done among 250 students of Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology to know the students requirements and teachers recommendation is also brought from the discussion with the teachers of this institute. After that according to the students requirements and teachers recommendation the candidates of teaching method is selected. And finally the Fuzzy Topsis Set Theory is applied to find out the effective teaching method which satisfies the student requirements. The characteristics and advantages are also mentioned which are able to alleviate the gaps that exist in the previous teaching methods.
