SPINAL: scalable protein interaction network alignment
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
Motivation: Given protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks of a pair of species a pairwise global alignment corresponds to a one-to-one mapping between their proteins. Based on the presupposition that such a mapping ...
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 ...
Oxygen Diffusion into Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Doped Polystrene Latex Films Using Fluorescence Technique
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2013)
This study examines the oxygen diffusion into polystyrene (PS) latex/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) nanocomposite films (PS/MWNT) consisting of various amounts of MWNT via steady state fluorescence technique (SSF). ...
Investigation of Drying of Poly(N-isoproplacrylamide-co-acrylamide) by Fluorescence Technique
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013)
The steady-state fluorescence technique was performed on drying of various molar percentages of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co- acrylamide) [poly(NIPA-co-AAc)] to elucidate the mechanism of temperature-induced phase separation ...
Multi-objective Fuel Supply for Coal-fired Power Plants Under Emission Transportation and Operational Constraints
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2013)
Coal-fired power plants need to decrease their generation cost in deregulated power markets so as to be selected dispatched and compete with other cheaper resources. On the other hand coal prices have risen significantly ...
Agent-based Optimization to Estimate Nash Equilibrium in Power Markets
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2013)
In most deregulated power markets firms bid daily into a day-ahead power market. The auction mechanism supply and demand determine the equilibrium at each hour. In this environment firms aim to maximize their revenues by ...
Lower lower-critical spin-glass dimension from quenched mixed-spatial-dimensional spin glasses
(Amer Physical Soc., 2018)
By quenched-randomly mixing local units of different spatial dimensionalities we have studied Ising spin-glass systems on hierarchical lattices continuously in dimensionalities 1 <= d <= 3. The global phase diagram in ...
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 ...
