A flood risk assessment of urban areas in Kaohsiung city along the Dianbao River was performed based on hazards and social vulnerability. In terms hazard analysis, a rainfall-runoff model (HEC-HMS) adopted to simulate discharges watershed, simulated were utilized as inputs for inundation (FLO-2D). Comparisons between observed at Wulilin Bridge flow station during Typhoon Kongrey (2013) Megi (20...

The various industries such as automobile industry, aerospace industry, printing industry, and chemical industry operate on job shop system. Job shop scheduling problems are complex and real world. The present work assesses the effect of change in shop utilizations levels on total setups and mean setup time measures. The simulation model of the job shop is developed for investigation purpose. T...

scheduling for job shop is very important in both fields of production management and combinatorial op-timization. however, it is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution to this problem with traditional opti-mization approaches owing to the high computational complexity. the combination of several optimization criteria induces additional complexity and new problems. in this paper, we pro...

Phenological events, in particular, flowering phenology and aspects of floral biology help to understand therelationship plants with their pollinators. Thus, this study sought estimate, under semi-arid conditions, the relationshipbetween different genotypes pumpkin or winter squash (Cucurbita moschata Duch.) environment, ofreproductive biology. Four cultivars were evaluated three productive cyc...

Flexible flow shop scheduling problem (also called blended flow shop scheduling problem) is a sort of complex Job Shop Scheduling problem. For the Flexible Flow Shop scheduling problem, only in very special cases, there are polynomial optimal algorithms. In most of the other cases, the problems are NP-Hard. It is a simplification of the original problem to solve Flexible flow shop scheduling wi...

Simulation technology holds tremendous promise for the manufacturing industry. A machine shop data model has been developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to represent neutral machine shop data for supporting machine shop manufacturing simulation [1]. This paper discusses the data model and its application in manufacturing simulation. The paper also proposes an app...

In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of the dynamic job shop scheduling problem when machine breakdown and new job arrivals occur. A hybrid approach involving neural networks(NNs) and geneticalgorithm(GA) is presented to solve the dynamic job shop scheduling problem as a static scheduling problem. The objective of this kind of job shop scheduling problem is minimizing the completion ti...

The distributed blocking flow shop scheduling problem (DBFSP) allows modeling the scheduling process in companies with more than one factory. It configures production systems as flow shop lines where the blocking constraint must be considered. To the best of our knowledge, this variant of the distributed permutation flow shop scheduling problem has not been studied. In this working paper, we sh...
