In cities where the urban rail transit (URT) systems do not provide 24-h services, passengers may be able to reach their destinations if last train services have closed by time they arrive at transfer stations. This paper aims seek a well-coordinated timetable that can transport as many possible (referred reachable passengers) and also those who cannot unreachable stations close destinations. A...

nowadays, it has demonstrated that viruses can be transmitted by water and foods. therefore, it causes the research to develop for detecting different viruses in water and foods. among foods, milk can transfer potentially pathogenic viruses. on the other hand, to achieve every method for recovery and extraction of viruses in raw milk it needs to know about impact of milk components on viruses. ...

The business environment is full of uncertainty. Allocating the wealth among various asset classes may lower the risk of overall portfolio and increase the potential for more benefit over the long term. In this paper, we propose a mixed singlestage R&D projects and multi-stage securities portfolio selection model. Specifically, we present a bi-objective mixed-integer stochastic programming mode...

This paper develops a bi-objective portfolio selection problem that maximizes returns and minimizes a risk measure called conditional Drawdown (CDD). The drawdown measures include the maximal Drawdown and Average Drawdown as its limiting case. The CDD family of risk functional is similar to conditional value at Risk (CVaR). In this paper, the fuzzy method has been used to solve the bi-objec...

A common method to study the dynamic behavior of macroeconomic variables is using linear time series models; however, they are unable to explain nonlinear behavior of the series. Given the dependency between stock market and derivatives, the behavior of the underlying asset price can be modeled using Markov switching process properties and the economic regime significance. In this paper, a two-...

The p-median problem has been widely studied in the literature during the last decades especially its linear version. We propose a capacitated p-median problem with concave costs, in which the global cost incurred for each established facility is a concave function of the quantity q delivered by this facility. The unit distribution cost decreases with the increased quantity of output or demand ...
