Epidemic models for phase transitions: application to a physical gel
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017)
Carrageenan gels are characterized by reversible sol-gel and gel-sol transitions under cooling and heating processes and these transitions are approximated by generalized logistic growth curves. We express the transitions ...
A fuzzy AHP-PROMETHEE II approach for evaluation of solar power plant location alternatives in Turkey
(IOS Press, 2017)
Solar energy produced through a solar power plant is a freely available non-polluting renewable source of energy that reduces the greenhouse effect. Selecting the best location for a solar power plant among several location ...
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 ...
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 ...
Optimization Model for Distributed Routing for Disaster Area Logistics
(IEEE, 2009)
The problem of transportation in a disaster area can be seen broadly as having two aspects: (a) moving people and materials out of an area and (b) moving people and materiel into the same area. The common thread here is ...
A combined fuzzy AHP-simulation approach to CAD software selection
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010)
In this paper a combined approach where the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and simulation come together is presented to select the best computer-aided design (CAD) software out of the available options in the market. ...
Selective liquid-liquid extraction of mercuric ions by octyl methane sulfonamide
(Marcel Dekker Inc, 2003)
N-octyl methane sulfonamide (OMSA) has been demonstrated to be a very efficient reagent for selective extraction of Hg(II) ions from aqueous solutions. The extraction bases on rapid reaction of OMSA with Hg(II) ions yielding ...
The stability constants of the rare earth complexes with trimetaphosphoric acid
(Soc Chimica Italiana, 2001)
The stability constants of the complexes formed between the rare earth metal ions and the anion of trimetaphosphoric acid have been determined at a temperature of 20 degreesC and an ionic strength of mu =0.1 by the ...
Mathematical Characterization of Thermo-reversible Phase Transitions of Agarose Gels
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
The thermal phase transition temperatures of high (HMP) and low melting point (LMP) agarose gels were investigated by using UV-vis spectroscopy techniques. Transmitted light intensities from the gel samples with different ...
Forecasting electricity demand for Turkey: Modeling periodic variations and demand segregation
(Elsevier, 2017)
In deregulated electricity markets the independent system operator (ISO) oversees the power system and manages the supply and demand balancing process. In a typical day the ISO announces the electricity demand forecast for ...
