An Overview of the 2009 A(H1N1) Pandemic in Europe: Efficiency of the Vaccination and Healthcare Strategies
(Hindawi Ltd, 2016)
2009 A(H1N1) data for 13 European countries obtained from the weekly influenza surveillance overview (WISO) reports of European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) in the form of weekly cumulative fatalities ...
A Multi-Objective Stochastic Model for an Earthquake Relief Network
(Wiley-Hindawi, 2020)
Earthquake relief network involves storage and distribution of relief aid to people in need. In this paper, a new stochastic multi-objective mixed integer mathematical model is developed and implemented in Kadikoy municipality ...
Evaluation of Influenza Intervention Strategies in Turkey with Fuzzy AHP-VIKOR
(Hindawi LTD, 2019)
In this study, a fuzzy AHP-VIKOR method is presented to help decision makers (DMs), especially physicians, evaluate and rank intervention strategies for influenza. Selecting the best intervention strategy is a sophisticated ...
Fuzzy AHP-GRA approach to evaluating energy sources: a case of Turkey
(EMERALD GROUP PUBLISHING LTD, 2020)
Purpose Since the demand for energy has dramatically increased in the countries which have fast-growing population and economy, they have faced with a critical problem of how to evaluate a set of potential energy sources ...
A multi-objective mathematical model for the industrial hazardous waste location-routing problem
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013)
Industrial hazardous waste management involves the collection transportation treatment recycling and disposal of industrial hazardous materials that pose risk to their surroundings. In this paper a new multiobjective ...
Inventory planning and coordination in disaster relief efforts
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013)
This research proposes a stochastic programming model to determine how supplies should be positioned and distributed among a network of cooperative warehouses. The model incorporates constraints that enforce equity in ...
Computing trade-offs in robust design: Perspectives of the mean squared error
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011)
Researchers often identify robust design as one of the most effective engineering design methods for continuous quality improvement. When more than one quality characteristic is considered an important question is how to ...
An interactive memetic algorithm for production and manufacturing problems modelled as a multi-objective travelling salesman problem
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012)
In this paper a preference-based interactive memetic random-key genetic algorithm (PIMRKGA) is developed and used to find (weakly) Pareto optimal solutions to manufacturing and production problems that can be modelled as ...
Radio frequency identification system optimisation models for lifecycle of a durable product
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010)
We address the implementation of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to support and manage durable products over their entire lifecycle with a focus on optimising the RFID tagging system. We develop general ...
On the uniqueness of epidemic models fitting a normalized curve of removed individuals
(Springer Heidelberg, 2015)
The susceptible-infected-removed (SIR) and the susceptible-exposed-infected-removed (SEIR) epidemic models with constant parameters are adequate for describing the time evolution of seasonal diseases for which available ...
