information and knowledge management have become crucial to the development of a competitive edge on the market. this requires the gathering of complete and consistent information in an environment where companies are working increasingly with a vast network of partners. in this paper, we investigate the case of platforms on the tourism market selling trips in boxes thanks to a wide network of ...

this research was aimed to investigate the condition of the existing roads and designing road network based on forest management plan at armardah, baneh. using analytical hierarchy process (ahp) method, the important layers of slope, aspect, forest type and distance to villages and resorts, were weighted and ranked. maps were produced to weighted layers generated in gis to find suitable regions...

abstract erosion and sedimentation are the most complicated problems in hydrodynamic which are very important in water-related projects of arid and semi-arid basins. for this reason, the presence of suitable methods for good estimation of suspended sediment load of rivers is very valuable. solving hydrodynamic equations related to these phenomenons and access to a mathematical-conceptual model ...

All organizations have structure. Researchers emphasized the importance of the organizational structure to achieve the goals and mission of an organization. Thus Performance assessment of organizing is essential for managers and decision makers to find weaknesses and eliminate them. Organizations are designed by different methods and process, based on same principles and theories. In this study...

the incremental sheet metal forming (ismf) process is a new and flexible method that is well suited for small batch production or prototyping. this paper studies the use of the finite element method in the incremental forming process of aa1050 sheets to investigate the influence of tool diameter, vertical step size, and friction coefficient on forming force, spring-back, and thickness distribut...

Prediction of the production rate of the cutting dimensional stone process is crucial, especially when chain saw machines are used. The cutting dimensional rock process is generally a complex issue with numerous effective factors including variable and unreliable conditions of the rocks and cutting machines. The Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) type of neural network and Radial Basis Functi...
