In this paper smart operation of micro energy hub is presented. Energy hub system consists of certain energy hubs and interconnectors that are coordinated by energy hub system operator. An energy hub contains several converters and storages to serve demanded services in most efficient manner from available energy carriers. In this paper, the flexibility of energy delivery point is enhanced u...

When shield machine traverses through hard rock mass, disc cutters will be abraded to different degrees. Excessive height difference exists between adjacent cutters, which critically affects the rock-breaking efficiency. Relying on a section of mass in Qingdao, cutter abrasions are measured site, and reason for low construction efficiency is analysed. Subsequently, discrete element method used ...

This paper describes geometric algorithms for automatically selecting an optimal sequence of cutters for machining a set of 21⁄2D parts. In milling operations, cutter size affects the machining time significantly. Meanwhile, if the batch size is small, it is also important to shorten the time spent on loading tools into the tool magazine and establishing z-length compensation values. Therefore,...

the biggest challenges faced in big cities are greenhouse gas emission and growing energy needs. efficient utilization of existing infrastructures has a prominent role in response to the challenges. energy hub approach embraces performance of different energy networks. energy hub is defined as a super node in electrical system receiving distinctive energy carriers such as gas and electricity in...

hub location problems are among the extensions ofclassical location problems that have numerous applications in designingtransportation, postal, and telecommunication networks. despite the evidentattention of researchers to these problems, there are few studies on designinghub networks under uncertainty and disruption. in this study, the capacitatedsingle allocation hub location problem under d...

BACKGROUND Some studies suggest that leg length discrepancy (LLD) is associated with low back pain (LBP) but many have not found such an association leading to conflicting evidence on the role of LLD in LBP. METHODS The study population consisted of meat cutters with a standing job and customer service workers with a sedentary job from Atria Suomi Ltd (Nurmo, Finland) who were at least 35 yea...

In this essay, based on documental analysis, the limitations associated with the use of pill organizers and cutters are discussed and analyzed as a matter of public health. The use of the organizers for storing and carrying tablets and capsules exposes these medications to environmental factors from which their original packaging protected them, compromising their stability and safeness. Cutter...
