Engineering students' attitude towards engineering ethics education
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Engineering ethics covers the scope of engineering standards and how these standards should be applied in daily engineering practice Engineering ethics combines societal, economic and environmental factors in order to ...
Effect of Geometrical Parameters on the Performance of Longitudinal Functionally Graded Femoral Prostheses
(2015 , Article)
This study aimed to assess the performance of different longitudinal functionally graded femoral prostheses. This study was also designed to develop an appropriate prosthetic geometric design for longitudinal functionally ...
New vehicle bumper design for pedestrian protection during impact
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This study discusses the influence of the active bumper design on the performance of the selected current bumper in terms of pedestrian protection by using finite element method. The legform impactor is used to test the ...
Numerical simulation of a novel expanded metal tubular structure for crashworthiness application
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Search for new geometries and materials that would serve in crashworthiness applications is a cumulative process. Recent studies investigated the performance of expanded metal tubes and the possible ways to enhance its ...
Utilization of oil wells for electricity generation: Performance and economics
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
There is a general agreement that the climate change, which is the most important challenge facing humanity, is anthropogenic and attributed to fossil fuel consumption. Therefore, deploying more renewable energy resources ...
A hybrid simulation-optimization approach for the robust Discrete Time/Cost Trade-off Problem
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
We investigate a stochastic Discrete Time/Cost Trade-off Problem. This multimode project scheduling problem, requires assigning modes to activities, and scheduling the activities so that the sum of the activities cost and ...
A simulation-optimization approach for robust aircraft routing
(
Universite de Lorraine
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
To mitigate the impact of unpredictable disruptions, airlines are seeking to pro-actively design schedules that incorporate some robustness features. In this paper, we propose a novel simulation-optimization approach using ...
Solving a large-scale crew pairing problem
(
Palgrave Macmillan Ltd.
, 2015 , Article)
Airline companies seek to solve the problem of determining an assignment of crews to a pre-determined flight schedule with minimum total cost, called the Crew Pairing Problem (CPP). Most of the existing studies focus on ...
Optimization models for a single-plant District Cooling System
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
A District Cooling System (DCS) is an interconnected system encompassing a centralized chiller plant, a Thermal Energy Storage (TES) unit, a piping network, and clusters of consumers' buildings. The main function of a DCS ...
An exact algorithm for the single machine problem with unavailability periods
(
Inderscience Publishers
, 2015 , Article)
We investigate the single machine scheduling problem with job release dates and due dates, and multiple planned unavailability time periods. This problem arises in the context of machine scheduling with planned preventive ...
