The capacitated arc routing problem is an important NP-hard with numerous real-world applications. uncertainties refers to those instances where there are in decision variables, objective functions and/or constraints. captures situations much better than a static because few problems and certain. Uncertainties the pose new research challenges. Algorithms that work well for certain may not on ve...

The in creas ing in ter est in mo lec u lar sys tems ex hib it ing ESIPT re ac tion has trig gered – due to their broad field of po ten tial ap pli ca tions – an ex ten sive search for prop erly sub sti tuted com pounds with well-tai lored prop er ties. This re view is based on se lected pa pers deal ing with some com monly known ESIPT sys tems mod i fied by spe cific sub stitu ents. The re sul...

I N 1994 AIR FORCE Special Opera tions Com mand stood up the 6th Special Op­ era tions Squadron (6 SOS), the first-­ ever USAF squadron dedicated to the for eign inter nal defense (FID) mission area. With roots in special air warfare dating back to the Vietnam War and even as far back as the Second World War, the 6 SOS was created to advise, train, and assist for­ eign aviation forces in the ap...

This paper investigates the existence and uniqueness of solutions to rst-order nonlinear boundary value problems (BVPs) involving fuzzy dif- ferential equations and two-point boundary conditions. Some sucient condi- tions are presented that guarantee the existence and uniqueness of solutions under the approach of Hukuhara dierentiability.

Designs methods and approaches are growing in popularity across disci- plines, however, definitions often absent, hidden or superficial with designers missing from the research team. The conveners argue that this endangers design to be misused devalued. This conversation questioned, what is current state of de- sign how they could developed a perspective rigour im- pact.
