Between 1995 and 2003 sugarcane farmers in Bundaberg had access to limited irrigation water. Over this time water allocations were effectively a quarter of the requirements for a fully irrigated crop. In response to this problem irrigation strategies were developed to assist farmers. Field investigations focused on the performance of water winch and furrow irrigation systems, which make up 91% ...

To optimize the functional space layout of various transportation modes integrated passenger transport hub, and improve transfer efficiency service quality a quantitative analysis flow lines hub is carried out. The research clarifies factors areas “get on drop off areas” for each mode transportation, generates candidate set placement area, determines priority ranking sets starting end locations...

Wireless energy collecting technology can effectively reduce the network time overhead and prolong the wireless sensor network (WSN) lifetime. However, the traditional energy collecting technology cannot achieve the balance between ergodic channel capacity and average collected energy. In order to solve the problem of the network transmission efficiency and the limited energy of wireless device...

In this paper, a new model is proposed for the integrated logistics network designing problem. In many research papers in this area, it is assumed that there is only one option for the capacity of each facility in the network. However, this is not a realistic assumption because generally there may be many possible options for the capacity of the facility that is being established. Usually the c...

Mixed Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (MCARP) models arise in distribution or collecting problems where activities are performed by vehicles, with limited capacity, and are continuously distributed along some predefined links (routes, streets) of an associated network. Considering directed as well as undirected required links, it is a generalization of the well known Capacitated Arc Routing pro...

in this paper smart operation of micro energy hub is presented. energy hub system consists of certain energy hubs and interconnectors that are coordinated by energy hub system operator. an energy hub contains several converters and storages to serve demanded services in most efficient manner from available energy carriers. in this paper, the flexibility of energy delivery point is enhanced u...
