This chapter intends to give an overview of the literature on dynamic lot-sizing models and stochastic transshipment models. These two types of models are used as a basis for developing models with substitution in the following chapters. Section 2.1 contains a classification of models for dynamic lot-sizing / production planning, and selected models. In Sect. 2.2, we give a brief overview of av...

OBJECTIVES Accurate sizing of the left atrial appendage (LAA) is essential when performing percutaneous LAA closure. This study aimed to compare different LAA imaging modalities and sizing methods in order to obtain successful LAA closure. BACKGROUND Percutaneous LAA closure is an increasingly used treatment strategy to prevent stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. LAA sizing has typic...

oil production optimization is one of the main targets of reservoir management. smart well technology gives the ability of real time oil production optimization. although this technology has many advantages; optimum adjustment or sizing of corresponding valves is still an issue to be solved. in this research, optimum port sizing of inflow control devices (icds) which are passive control valves ...
