In this paper, we present a robust optimization formulation for dealing with demand uncertaintyin a dynamic pricing and inventory control problem for a make-to-stock manufacturing system. Weconsider a multi-product capacitated, dynamic setting. We introduce a demand-based fluid modelwhere the demand is a linear function of the price, the inventory cost is linear, the production ...

To investigate the control of sugar uptake by metabolic demand, we used isolated quiescent adult rat heart cells in suspension, under conditions similar to those found during anoxia. Metabolic demand was varied by exposing cells to rotenone plus various levels of p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone. Without glucose, the time taken for half of the cells to undergo contracture was inversely proport...

in this study, yield-water and profit function was used to obtain water demand function in agriculture sector. the results showed that the ratio of actual to potential evapotranspiration had positive, significant effecton the ratio of actual to potential yield for wheat and barley. also, square ratio of actual to potential evapotranspiration had negative, significant relationship. after estimat...

in the market for factors of production usually the equilibrium will be stablished on the based of the equality between the value of marginal products of output and their relative price level. on the other hand the value of marginal product of output is a function of observed rate productivity of output and the market capacity of factors of production. thus the fluctuation in the rate of produc...

An order level inventory model for seasonable/fashionable products subject to a period of increasing demand followed by a period of level demand and then by a period of decreasing demand rate three branches ramp type demand rate is considered. The unsatisfied demand is partially backlogged with a time dependent backlogging rate. In addition, the product deteriorates with a time dependent, namel...

A deterministic inventory model for infinite time-horizon incorporating inventory level-dependent demand rate, deterioration begins after a certain time, partial backlogging and decrease in demand is developed. The salient feature of the developed model is the introduction of the concept of fractional decrease in demand due to ageing of inventory. Demand at any instant depends linearly on the ...

to obtain detailed information of sowing density and defoliation intensity under more controlled conditions on herbage production and seed yield, paraggio medic was grown on raised-beds located outdoors at the waite agricultural research institute. a split split randomised block design was used. treatments comprised three sowing rates (densities): low (3 kg/ha), medium (15 kg/ha) and high (...
