A heuristic approach for allocation of data to RFID tags: A data allocation knapsack problem (DAKP)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012)Durable products and their components are increasingly being equipped with one of several forms of automatic identification technology such as radio frequency identification (RFID). This technology enables data collection, ... -
A historical assessment of Turkey's natural gas import vulnerability
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018)This article aims at evaluating the historical determinants and implications of Turkey's natural gas import dependency. We implement principle component analysis (PCA) methodology to construct a natural gas import vulnerability ... -
How is the Big Five related to moral and political convictions: The moderating role of the WEIRDness of the culture
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019)There has been extensive research on how the Big Five personality traits are related to political orientation and endorsement of moral foundations. However, recent findings suggest that these relationships may not be ... -
A hybrid approach to concept selection through fuzzy analytic network process
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)Evaluating conceptual design alternatives in a new product development (NPD) environment has been one of the most critical issues for many companies which try to survive in the fast-growing world markets. Therefore most ... -
An integrated fuzzy MCDM approach based on Bonferroni functions for selection and evaluation of industrial robots for the automobile manufacturing industry
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023)In recent years, there have been dramatic changes in manufacturing systems in many industries depending on technological developments. Robotics is one of the essential components of these changes. Today, the usage of ... -
Investigation of transfusion transmitted viruses in cases clinically suspected of posttransfusion hepatitis with undetermined ethiology
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2002)Transfusion transmitted viruses (TTV) were investigated in cardiac surgery cases who were previously transfused with blood and/or blood products and were suspected of having posttransfusion hepatitis (PTH) based on the ... -
The involvement of nitric oxide in the analgesic effects of ketamine
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2002)We investigated the contribution of NO-cyclic GMP (cGMP) pathway to the antinociceptive effects of ketamine in mice by using the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor nitro(g)-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). Intraperitoneal ... -
Leveraging saving-based algorithms by master-slave genetic algorithms
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011)Saving-based algorithms are commonly used as inner mechanisms of efficient heuristic construction procedures. We present a general mechanism for enhancing the effectiveness of such heuristics based on a two-level genetic ... -
Master problem approximations in Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition of variational inequality problems with applications to two energy market models
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)In this paper a modification to Dantzig-Wolfe (DW) decomposition algorithm for variational inequality (VI) problems is considered to alleviate the computational burden and to facilitate model management and maintenance. ... -
Minimization of rest mismatches in round robin tournaments
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018)In sports tournaments an occurrence of a difference in the rest periods of opponent teams in a game which we refer to as a rest mismatch will disadvantage the less rested team. Thus it is only fair to expect opposing teams ... -
Models for relief routing: equity efficiency and efficacy
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012)In humanitarian relief operations vehicle routing and supply allocation decisions are critically important. Similar routing and allocation decisions are studied for commercial settings where efficiency in terms of minimizing ... -
Molecular modifications on carboxylic acid derivatives as potent histone deacetylase inhibitors: Activity and docking studies
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)In the light of known HDAC inhibitors 33 carboxylic acid derivatives were tested to understand the structural requirements for HDAC inhibition activity. Several modifications were applied to develop the structure-activity ... -
Multifractal spin-glass chaos projection and interrelation of multicultural music and brain signals
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023)A complexity classification scheme is developed from the fractal spectra of spin-glass chaos and demonstrated with multigeographic multicultural music and brain electroencephalogram signals. Systematic patterns are found ... -
New pyrazoline bearing 4(3H)-quinazolinone inhibitors of monoamine oxidase: Synthesis biological evaluation and structural determinants of MAO-A and MAO-B selectivity
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)A new series of pyrazoline derivatives were prepared starting from a quinazolinone ring and evaluated for antidepressant anxiogenic and MAO-A and -B inhibitory activities by in vivo and in vitro tests respectively. Most ... -
A new service recommendation method for agricultural industries in the fog-based Internet of Things environment using a hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022)Regardless of public perceptions of the agricultural techniques, the fact is that the current agriculture industry is more data-driven, accurate, and intelligent than before. Therefore, novel technologies such as fog ... -
Nonlinear time series analysis of palaeoclimate proxy records
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021)Identifying and characterising dynamical regime shifts, critical transitions or potential tipping points in palaeoclimate time series is relevant for improving the understanding of often highly nonlinear Earth system ... -
A novel integrated MCDM framework based on Type-2 neutrosophic fuzzy sets (T2NN) for the selection of proper Second-Hand chemical tankers
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022)Shipping companies may not present appropriate and reasonable shipping charges to their customers due to the high investment costs of chemical tanker vessels. Hence, the second-hand chemical tanker vessel selection may ... -
