Managing Fuel Coal Supply Chains With Multiple Objectives and Multimode Transportation
(AMER SOC ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT, 2013)
Power companies require sophisticated tools to manage fuel-coal supply chains which include multiple suppliers coal contracts and multimode transportation routes. In this article a multi-objective model which is integrated ...
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 ...
Computational Analysis of a Zn-Bound Tris(imidazolyl) Calix[6]arene Aqua Complex: Toward Incorporating Second-Coordination Sphere Effects into Carbonic Anhydrase Biomimetics
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2013)
Molecular dynamics simulations and quantum-mechanical calculations were performed to characterize a supra-molecular tris(imidazolyl) calix[6]arene Zn2+ aqua complex as a biomimetic model for the catalyzed hydration of ...
Drying of polyacrylamide-multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composites with various MWNTs contents: a fluorescence study
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2013)
We studied the drying of polyacrylamide (PAAm)-multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composites prepared by free radical crosslinking copolymerization in water with a steady state fluorescence technique. Composite gels were ...
Crossover from Vibrational to Rotational Collectivity in Heavy Nuclei in the Shell-Model Monte Carlo Approach
(Amer Physical Soc., 2013)
Heavy nuclei exhibit a crossover from vibrational to rotational collectivity as the number of neutrons or protons increases from shell closure towards midshell but the microscopic description of this crossover has been a ...
Generalized Einstein tensor for a Weyl manifold and its applications
(Springer Heidelberg, 2013)
It is well known that the Einstein tensor G for a Riemannian manifold defined by R (alpha) (beta) = g (beta gamma) R (gamma I +/-) where R (gamma I +/-) and R are respectively the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature of ...
Continuous dependence on data for a solution of the quasilinear parabolic equation with a periodic boundary condition
(Springer International Publishing Ag, 2013)
In this paper we consider a parabolic equation with a periodic boundary condition and we prove the stability of a solution on the data. We give a numerical example for the stability of the solution on the data.
Acculturation Attitudes and Social Adjustment in British South Asian Children: A Longitudinal Study
(Sage Publications Inc, 2013)
A 1-year longitudinal study with three testing points was conducted with 215 British Asian children aged 5 to 11 years to test hypotheses from Berry's acculturation framework. Using age-appropriate measures of acculturation ...
Fluorescence quenching method for monitoring oxygen diffusion into PS/CNT composite films
(Elsevier Science SA, 2013)
Oxygen permeabilities of nanocomposite films consisting of multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWNT) and polystyrene (PS) were determined to investigate the oxygen diffusion depending on MWNT and temperature. A method which is ...
Haydarpasa Train Station: Present Past And Future
(Middle East Technical Univ, 2013)
The facade of Haydarpasa Train Station has been changed more than once in the course of its century old life time. Until the fire in November 2010 wiping out the roof the building was recalled only with a single image ...
