This work considers the strategic Supply Chain Network Design (SCND) problem, which is to define number and location of facilities, flow products among them fulfilling a long-term deterministic demand. A two-phase heuristic approach was specially developed solve large scale problems in reasonable time, extending previous algorithm introduced Farias et al. (2017). In construction phase, multi-st...

this paper studied the mathematical method of flow with regard to two-phase boundary layer that created over the iced surface. based on experimental results, skin drag over the iced surface compared with this force that compute with slip condition. based on this results, for iced surface blasius equation solving at non-slip condition, can replace with solving the blasius equation with slip cond...

in this paper, a non-isothermal two-phase flow in the cathode gas diffusion layer (gdl) of pem fuel cell is modeled. the governing equations including energy, mass and momentum conservation equations are solved by numerical methods. also, the optimal values of the effective parameters such as the electrodes porosity, gas diffusion layer (gdl) thickness and inlet relative humidity are calculated...

flow regime in dam's bottom outlet is divided in pressurized flow and free surface flow by the gate located for discharge control. down stream tunnel involves high velocity multi component air –water flow studied by mathematical model. in this research work, we used finite volume mixture two phase flow model. because of high reynolds number, standard two equations k-e turbulence model was ...

rock chutes are natural river training structures and are efficient energy dissipaters too. from the hydraulic and environmental point of view, rock chutes have become important structures in the natural river morphology. a physical study was conducted and flow properties were measured over rough bed materials of a rock chute, which was assembled at the pitlab center of the university of pisa, ...

We study the so-called two-phase obstacle-type problem for the p-Laplacian when p is close to 2. We introduce a new method to obtain the optimal growth of the function from branch points, i.e. two-phase points in the free boundary where the gradient vanishes. As a by-product we can locally estimate the (n − 1)-Hausdorff-measure of the free boundary for the special case when p > 2.

We present a simple and automatic method for determining the uncertainty in the retrieved intensity and phase versus time (and frequency) due to noise in a frequency-resolved optical-gating trace, independent of noise source. It uses the ‘‘bootstrap’’ statistical method and also yields an automated method for phase blanking (omitting the phase when the intensity is too low to determine it). © 2...
