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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
