time-delays are important components of many dynamical systems that describe coupling or interconnection between dynamics, propagation or transport phenomena, and heredity and competition in population dynamics. the stabilization with time delay in observation or control represents difficult mathematical challenges in the control of distributed parameter systems. it is well-known that the stabi...

generally, the failure rate and the repair time of system components are constant parameters in reliability assessment of electric distribution systems. a failure of component is resulted from failing in the operation or overloading. in addition, there exist cases where, the repair times of components are small and tolerable from customer point of view. thus, tolerable repair times may be overl...

The article is centred on software system development for manufacturing company that produces polyethylene bags using mostly conventional machines in a competitive world where each business enterprise desires to stand tall. This is meant to assist in gaining market shares, taking maintenance and production decisions by the dynamism and flexibilities embedded in the package as customers’ demand ...

The optimum fermentation times of black tea manufactured by two systems of Orthodox and CTC (cut, tear & curl) were investigated by measuring the quality parameters of black tea, like: theaflavin, thearubigin, highly  polymerized substances and total liquid colour during the fermentation stage. Optimum fermentation times from the beginning of fermentation were determined to be 60 min and 15...

This paper examines the issue of handling outputs in DEA that occur at different stages in time. In some situations, the output set occur at the different period of time, meaning that the produced outputs at the first period of time impact on the production of outputs of next time . This problem setting gives rise to the phenomenon of time-staged outputs. Specifically, the two outputs occur at ...

Abstract Human insulin-like growth factor I (hIGF-I) is a kind of growth factor with clinical significance in medicine. The major objective of this study is over- production of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I( rhIGF-I) through a developed process by recruiting effective factors in order to achieve the most recombinant protein. Up to now E. coli expression system has been widely us...

real-time pricing schemes make the customers to feel the energy price volatility and improve their load profiles. however, these schemes have no significant effect on demand-side uncertainty reduction. in this paper, considering smart grid infrastructures and smart building energy management system (ems), a new real-time pricing scheme is presented to reduce the uncertainty of demand-side. in t...
