We present a two-phase model for planning and scheduling of order picking processes. In many warehousing environments order picking processes are organized according to the pick&pack principle. Pickers must build stabile loads during the picking process under strict time constrains. A genetic algorithm with Pareto elitist-based selection has been developed for this multi-criteria optimization p...

In manual order picking systems, order pickers walk or ride through a warehouse in order to collect items requested by customers. The performance of such a system is significantly dependent on its layout which determines the lengths of the order pickers’ tours and the corresponding picking times. Whereas for classic warehouse layouts all picking aisles are arranged in parallel to each other, in...

Purpose : Fruit peels waste is one of the accumulate in huge quantity every day. It a serious problem and need to be managed make environment free from pollution. are very rich macro micro nutrients that beneficial for plant growth. By using fruit peel as fertilizer we can reduce load wastes get more benefits than inorganic fertilizer. Research Method The experiment was carried out Completely R...

Mature peach leaves are typically about 4 x 16 cm, with a width/length ratio of about 25%. A narrow leaf seedling, selected by Wayne Sherman (Univ. of Florida, Gainesville), was hybridized at USDA-Byron with adapted commercial varieties. Early generation hybrids produced small, irregular-shaped fruit. After 5 generations, current selections are approaching commercial fruit standards in size, co...

We report high quality graphene and WSe2 devices encapsulated between two hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) flakes using a pick-up method with etched hBN flakes. Picking up prepatterned hBN flakes to be used as a gate dielectric or mask for other 2D materials opens new possibilities for the design and fabrication of 2D heterostructures. In this Letter, we demonstrate this technique in two ways: fir...
