Modeling and simulation of communication circuits at high frequency are important challenges ahead in the design and construction of these circuits. Knowing the fact that the lumped element model is not valid at high frequency, distributed analysis is presented based on active and passive transmission lines theory. In this paper, a lossy transmission line model of traveling wave switch (TWSW) i...

this paper mainly focuses the study and analysis of the existing contributions related to the biodiesel production. it, firstly, discuss the key issues related contributions which include chemical process, reactor designing, plantation, blending and applications. next, it summarizes the analysis of the other prominent contributions related to process model, design, production, cost, optimizatio...

In design and fabricate drive shafts with high value of fundamental natural frequency that represented high value of critical speed; using composite materials instead of typical metallic materials could provide longer length shafts with lighter weight. In this paper, multi-objective optimization (MOP) of a composite drive shaft is performed considering three conflicting objectives: fundamental ...

closed-loop supply chain network (clscn) design aims at incorporating environmental considerations into the traditional supply chain design by including recycling, disassembly and reuse activities. in a clscn, the environmental considerations can also be facilitated by resorting to environmentally friendly materials and enhancing product reuse through the design of an appropriate product recove...

low level of efficiency is a main problem of surface irrigation systems that is due to their poordesign and management. furrow inflow rate and cut off time are the most important design parametersthat affect the efficiency of furrow irrigation. in this study, furrow irrigation condition of amir kabiragro-industry sugarcane fields was simulated with winsrfr3.1 model. then, irrigation performance...

The buffer allocation problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem, and it is an important design problem in manufacturing systems. The research proposed in this paper concerns a product line consisting of n unreliable machines with n − 1 buffers and a preventive maintenance policy. The focus of the research is to obtain a better trade-off between the buffer level ...

The design of a convective drying cycle could be challenging because its thermodynamic performance depends on wide range operating parameters. Further, the initial product properties and environmental conditions fluctuate during production, affecting final quality, impact, energy usage. An off-design analysis distinguishes effects different parameters defining setup with best more stable perfor...
