A multi-dimensional time-series is a sequence of vectors measured by many devices at points in time. Although many methods have been proposed to model and classify the data, these methods lead to a problematic relationship between cost and accuracy. In this paper, we propose a novel method for approximating multi-dimensional time-series, named multi-dimensional time-series Approximation with us...

in the fundamental production inventory model, in order to solve the economic production quantity (epq) we always fix both the demand quantity and the production quantity per day. but, in the real situation, both of them probably will have little disturbances every day. therefore, we should fuzzify both of them to solve the economic production quantity (q*) per cycle. using α-cut for defuzzific...

decision making on budgeting is one of the most important issues for executing managers. budgeting is a major tool for planning and control of projects. in public and non-profit organizations and institutions, estimating the costs and revenues plays an important role in receiving credit and budgeting. in this regard, in the present paper the case of isfahan municipality is considered. one of th...

  We discuss the effects of inflation and time discounting on an EOQ model for deteriorating items under stock-dependent demand and time-dependent partial backlogging. The inventory model is studied under the replenishment policy starting with no shortages. We then use MATLAB to find the optimal replenishment policies. The objective of this model is to maximize the total profit (TP) which inclu...

optimal use of water resources is essential to decrease cost and maximize available water resources. subsurface drip irrigation can increase irrigation and water use efficiency. this irrigation method distributes water into the soil, leaving the surface of the soil dry and decreasing evaporation. in the design of subsurface drip irrigation (sdi) systems, the dimensions of the wetted onion deter...

in the present work a two dimensional numerical investigation of steam flows in a turbine blade passage is performed. a finite volume approach has been used and the pressure–velocity coupling is resolved using the simple algorithm. the purpose of this paper is to find that one of the used turbulent models is better for this kind of studies. a structured mesh arrangement with boundary layer mesh...

In this article, we combine the DLA model of Witten and Sander with ideas from optimal transportation. We propose a modification of the DLA model in which the probability of sticking is inversely proportional to the additional transport cost from the point to the root. We used a family of cost functions parametrized by a parameter α as studied in ramified optimal transportation. α < 0 promotes ...

bus systems are unstable without considering any control. thus, we are able to consider some control strategies to alleviate this problem. a holding control strategy is one commonly used real-time control strategy that can improve service quality. this paper develops a mathematical model for a holding control strategy. the objective of this model is to minimize the total cost related to passeng...

risk management is one of the nine project management processes, which provides positive results and minimizes the probability and consequences of adverse effects in the project.  in this article a zero-one linear programming model with multiple objectives is used to characterize the potential risks. the proposed model has two main objectives. the first objective is the minimization of the expe...

this study considers an eoq inventory model with advance payment policy in a fuzzy situation by employing two types of fuzzy numbers that are trapezoidal and triangular. two fuzzy models are developed here. in the first model the cost parameters are fuzzified, but the demand rate is treated as crisp constant. in the second model, the demand rate is fuzzified but the cost parameters are treated ...
