Reliability analysis of fatigue lifetime design has two assignments: a. To forecast fatigue lifetime of the structure on given reliability level, b. To evaluate reliability level of the structure on given service conditions, material features and designing dimensions. It aims at evaluating the structure’s designing quality and providing a basis for designing improvement or manufacturing. At mea...

We  deal with the relationship termination problem in the context of individual-level customer relationship management (CRM) and use a Markov decision process to determine the most appropriate occasion for termination of the relationship with a seemingly unprofitable customer. As a particular case, the beta-geometric/beta-binomial model is considered as the basis to define customer beha...

Limited energy is the major driving factor for research on wireless sensor networks. Clustering alleviates this energy shortage problem by reducing data traffic conveyed over the network and therefore several clustering methods are proposed in the literature. Researchers put forward their methods by making serious assumptions such as always locating single sink at one side of the topology or ma...
