Petroleum: possibilities in the pipeline.
Understanding the prevalence of sexual reproduction in eukaryotes is a hard problem. At least two aspects still defy a fully satisfactory explanation, the functional significance of genetic recombination and the great variation among taxa in the relative lengths of the haploid and diploid phases in the sexual cycle. We have performed an experimental study to explore the specific advantages of h...
متن کاملGetting Value from the Reverse Logistics Pipeline
TRANSPORTATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE Getting Value from the Reverse Logistics Pipeline For many of the major components on the Army’s weapon systems, trucks, and other major items of equipment, it often makes economic sense to repair them rather than replace them with new ones. Current acquisition and management of these systems in fact plan for and assume that this sort of repair will occur. Thus...
متن کاملOperations Research for green logistics - An overview of aspects, issues, contributions and challenges
The worldwide economic growth of the last century has given rise to a vast consumption of goods while globalization has led to large streams of goods all over the world. The production, transportation, storage and consumption of all these goods, however, have created large environmental problems. Today, global warming, created by large scale emissions of greenhouse gasses, is a top environmenta...
متن کاملRisk Based Maintenance of a Cross-country Petroleum Pipeline System
This paper proposes a data-driven approach in determining an optimal inspection interval for a petroleum pipeline system. The approach accounts for the determination of both the probability of failure and its associated consequences. The probability of failure is estimated by fitting the historical data of failure of the pipeline into either a homogenous Poisson process or non-homogenous Poisso...
متن کاملThe Application of Wavelet in Petroleum Pipeline Detection
The leakage of petroleum can lead to serious economical loss. How to find out leakage spot is the key technology that we will discuss in the paper. In this paper, we apply wavelet transform to solving the problem. Because the audio signal from the leakage spot is very weak, when the sound spreads to the ends, the signal tested by sensor has been sinked down by other noise signals. It is difficu...
