Synchronized Two-Stage Lot Sizing and Scheduling Problem in Automotive Industry
(Springer-Verlag Berlin, Heidelberger Platz 3, D-14197 Berlin, GermanySpringer-Verlag Berlin, Heidelberger Platz 3, D-14197 Berlin, Germany, 2012)
This study proposes a mixed-integer linear programming model to solve the synchronized two-stage lot sizing and scheduling problem with setup times and costs. The main motivation behind this study is based on the need of ...
Corrosion inhibitors for steel in concrete: State-of-the-art report
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, THE BOULEVARD, LANGFORD LANE, KIDLINGTON, OXFORD OX5 1GB, OXON, ENGLAND, 2008-04)
This state-of-the-art report is focused on corrosion inhibitors used in concrete and is based on published studies in the last decade. Emphasis was given to the most commonly used inhibitors such as aminoalcohols (AMAs), ...
Dynamic behaviour of seismically isolated cylindrical offshore storage tanks
(AMER SOC MECHANICAL ENGINEERS, THREE PARK AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10016-5990 USA, 2005)
Cylindrical offshore storage tanks are mainly used to store critical liquids such as petroleum and LNG. Failure of these tanks after an earthquake not only results in high financial losses but can also create an environmental ...
Transverse Load Carrying Capacity Of Sinusoidally Corrugated Steel Web Beams With Web Openings
(Techno-Press, Po Box 33, Yuseong, Daejeon 305-600, South Korea, 2010-02)
The present paper presents a Study on the behavior and design of corrugated web steel beams with and without web openings. In the literature, the web opening problem in steel beams was dealt with mostly for steel beams) ...
Effects of bar-placement conditions on steel-concrete bond
(SPRINGER, VAN GODEWIJCKSTRAAT 30, 3311 GZ DORDRECHT, NETHERLANDS, 2006-03)
Vertical sections exhibit a variety of factors that affect the bond between the embedded steel bars and the concrete, like casting position, concrete characteristics, and compaction procedure. The results obtained in this ...
Parallel computing in Asian option pricing
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, 2007-03)
We discuss the use of parallel computing in Asian option pricing and evaluate the efficiency of various algorithms. We only focus on "backward-starting fixed strike" Asian options that are continuously averaged. We implement ...
Lung Sound Noise Reduction Using Gabor Time-Frequency Masking
(SPRINGER-VERLAG BERLIN, HEIDELBERGER PLATZ 3, D-14197 BERLIN, GERMANY, 2007)
The Gabor expansion is a mathematical tool, which provides a joint time-frequency representation of a given signal by decomposing it into time-frequency elementary signals called Gabor atoms. It has been used in a variety ...
A fuzzy AHP approach to evaluating machine tool alternatives
(SPRINGER, VAN GODEWIJCKSTRAAT 30, 3311 GZ DORDRECHT, NETHERLANDS, 2006-04)
Selecting process of a machine tool has been very important issue for companies for years, because the improper selection of a machine tool might cause of many problems affecting negatively on productivity, precision, ...
The manufacture of microencapsulated phase change materials suitable for the design of thermally enhanced fabrics
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, 2007-01-15)
Thermal comfort of a fabric is one of the important tasks of the designers that require an engineering approach. In this study, we first aimed to establish a manufacturing technique based on in situ polymerization in order ...
The effect of a new generation surface-applied organic inhibitor on concrete properties
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, THE BOULEVARD, LANGFORD LANE, KIDLINGTON, OXFORD OX5 1GB, OXON, ENGLAND, 2007-05)
The influence of a new organic surface-applied corrosion inhibitor (SACI) on selected concrete properties is studied including compressive strength, tensile strength, steel-concrete bond strength, permeability, drying ...
