An Integrated Quay Crane Assignment and Scheduling Problem Using Branch-and-Price
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the integrated quay crane assignment and scheduling problem (QCASP). The problem requires determining the assignment of quay cranes to vessels and the scheduling of operations to be performed by ...
Integrated Optimization for Stock Levels and Cross-Training Schemes with Simulation-Based Genetic Algorithm
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
A spare part supply system for repairable spares in a repair shop is modeled as a set of heterogeneous parallel servers that have the ability to repair only certain types of repairables. The proposed model minimizes the ...
Simulation based particle swarm optimization of cross-training policies in spare parts supply systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
We study a single location supply system for repairable spare parts. The system consists of a multi-server repair shop and inventory with ready-to-use spare parts. When a failed part is received, a new (or as-good-as-new) ...
Uniform fractional factorial design tables for energy piles with maximum thermal conductance
(
WITPress
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Energy Piles are the heat exchangers of Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHP) that transfer the buildings heat to the lower temperature shallow ground reducing the energy consumption in the cooling of buildings. These piles are ...
Investigation of optimal charging locations for electric vehicles in Istanbul
(
IEOM Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Electric vehicles have a great potential to decrease the adverse effects of transportation, especially in metropolitan cities. On the other hand, adoption of the electric vehicles requires supporting infrastructure such ...
Energy absorption capabilities of complex thin walled structures
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Thin walled structures have been used in the area of energy absorption during an event of a crash. A lot of work has been done on tubular structures. Due to limitation of manufacturing process, complex geometries were ...
Analyzing the Behavior of Classical Functionally Graded Coated Beam
(
EDP Sciences
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The governing equation of a classical rectangular coated beam made of two homogeneous layers at top ceramic coated layer and bottom metal layer and also single Functionally Graded Material (FGM) as a sub coated layer ...
Design and verification of a flexible device for steering a tethered capsule endoscope in the stomach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Capsule endoscopy is a good method of gastric cancer diagnosis that has some advantages over conventional endoscopy, such as providing reliable results without substantial discomfort to patients. However, lack of capsule ...
Anti-spoofing device for biometric fingerprint scanners
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Biometrics is a promising technology for safeguarding the personal identity and digital information of every individual. This paper describes an easy-to-integrate and inexpensive method to improve the security of fingerprint ...
Carbon footprint analysis of electric taxis in Istanbul
(
IEOM Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The global climate change and fossil fuel dependency are two major important challenge for achieving sustainable transportation. Alternative vehicle technologies, especially electric vehicles, have great potential to reduce ...
