one of the main principles of the passive defense is the principle of site selection. in this paper, we propose a multiple objective nonlinear programming model that considers the principle of the site selection in terms of two qualitative and quantitative aspects. the purpose of the proposed model is selection of the place of key production facilities of a system in which not only it observes ...

this article aims at designing the mathematical model for aras dam reservoir in time operation with missions of agriculture needs safeguarding, water electric energy production and torrent controls. reservoir system relations determinate and these relations at framework of are determined and stochastic dynamic programming are calculated executive results of this model are presentation of guides...

proposing a robust designed facility location is one of the most effective ways to hedge against unexpected disruptions and failures in a transportation network system. this paper considers the combined facility location/network design problem with regard to transportation link disruptions and develops a mixed integer linear programming formulation to model it. with respect to the probability o...

[1] corresponding author e-mail: [email protected]   [1] corresponding author e-mail: [email protected]   lot-sizing problems (lsps) belong to the class of production planning problems in which the availability quantities of the production plan are always considered as a decision variable. this paper aims at developing a new mathematical model for the multi-level capacitated lsp w...

Dynamic lot sizing problem is one of the significant problem in industrial units and it has been considered by  many researchers. Considering the quantity discount in  purchasing cost is one of the important and practical assumptions in the field of inventory control models and it has been less focused in terms of stochastic version of dynamic lot sizing problem. In  this paper, stochastic dyn...

in this study, to determine the economic value of irrigation water and simulate the response of farmers to reducing  available water policy of positive mathematical programming models (pmp) was used. by the proposed model, the economic value (shadow price) of irrigation water estimated in each of the areas of western rodbar alamuot, rajai dasht and eastern rodbar almuot. then, the reactions of ...

  In this paper, we consider a flow shop scheduling problem with bypass consideration for minimizing the sum of earliness and tardiness costs. We propose a new mathematical modeling to formulate this problem. There are several constraints which are involved in our modeling such as the due date of jobs, the job ready times, the earliness and the tardiness cost of jobs, and so on. We apply adapte...

To better understand the role of natural dynamics in motor control, we have constructed a mathematical model of crawling mechanics in larval Drosophila. The model accounts for key anatomical features such as a segmentally patterned, viscoelastic outer body wall (cuticle); a non-segmented inner cavity (haemocoel) filled with incompressible fluid that enables visceral pistoning; and claw-like pro...

in this paper, the staff assignment problem considering cross-training of caregivers in health care systems is addressed to determine which staff should be cross-trained for each service and how they should be assigned to services. a bi-objective non-linear mathematical programming model is presented where the first objective function aims to minimize workload balancing, cross-training as well ...

abstract surface water restriction and supply variation of these resources causes of over extraction of groundwater and unbalance between feed and extraction of groundwater in iran. agricultural sector as the biggest consumer of water resources has the most share of this unsustainability. this paper studies the conjunctive use of surface and groundwater in agronomy production in qazvin basin, o...
