A point in a transport network plays many roles. The Point pattern provides a flexible structure that decouples a point's role from the point itself and supports multiple concurrent roles. Points (or the links between points) are used to define routes. A route is a path through an ordered sequence of points (or links) in a transport network. A route may build upon different layers of components...

In the past decades, many methods have been developed to synthesize zero- dimensional  nanoparticles, quasi–one–dimensional (1D) CuO nanostructures, such as metal organic deposition technique,  microwave irradiation, sol-gel-like dip  technique, reverse micelle-assisted route, chemical method, and simple template free solution route. Among those synthesis methods, hydrothermal and chemical reac...

oral contraceptive pills have several side effects especially on the gastrointestinal tract and liver. absorption of low dose (ld) pills by the vaginal route avoids the first pass of the steroids through these tracts and probably has fewer side effects. this study was a cohort study for evaluation of side effects and acceptability of ld pills administered by the vaginal route. in a clinical tri...

in this paper, we study the multi-depot vehiclerouting problem with inter-depot routes, in which the vehicles can replenish atintermediate depots. vehicles leave the origin depot with load on-board andserve customers until out of load. they may visit an intermediate depot toreplenish and finally return to the origin depot, completing their route. weinitiate a mathematical mixed integer programm...

in this paper, indium tin oxide (ito) nanoparticles has been prepared by chemical methods under given conditions with solution of indium chloride (incl3·4h2o), tin chloride (sncl4·5h2o) in ammonia solution. the samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem) analyses after heat treatments. the sem results showed that, the size of the ito particles pr...

A huge amount of construction waste is generated in sites every day that needs to be transported by vehicle disposal facilities for processing. Unlike most typical transportation problems, once these vehicles are loaded with waste, they must travel directly the facility. Moreover, there different types may require handling facilities. In this paper, we develop a model and algorithm identifying ...
