Modeling and optimal solving of supply chain management problems lead to efficient decision making in strategic planning and supply chain operations, resulting in a competitive advantage. Today, with the planning of a sustainable supply chain, in addition to achieving economic goals, it is possible to meet social and environmental objectives and considerations. This research deal with sustainab...

Assembly lines are flow-oriented production systems that are of great importance in the industrial production of standard, high-volume products and even more recently, they have become commonplace in producing low-volume custom products. The main goal of designers of these lines is to increase the efficiency of the system and therefore, the assembly line balancing to achieve an optimal system i...

the study focused on the analysis of production and marketing constraints of tomato among rural farmers in talensi nabdam district of upper east region of ghana.a total of 100 respondents were interviewed using questionnaire. data was analyzed using descriptive statistics to describe the socio economic characteristics of the farmers and kendall’s coefficient of concordance was used to rank the ...

In this paper, we propose in a Hilbertian setting second-order time-continuous dynamic system with fast convergence guarantees to solve structured convex minimization problems an affine constraint. The is associated the augmented Lagrangian formulation of problem. corresponding dynamics brings into play three general time-varying parameters, each specific properties, and which are, respectively...

image analysis, the introduction of the notion of scale in motion analysis is far from trivial. In optic flow based In optic flow based velocity estimation the image brightness constraint equation is used. However, for measurements pervelocity estimation, correspondences between adjacent formed at a certain scale, the brightness constraint equation frames are made using the image brightness con...

This paper develops a design of feedforward control for descriptor system with unmeasurable disturbance which are either nonregular or if it is regular, has impulsive mode. To solve this problem, we will transform descriptor system into regular state space system using the output feedback. First, fault detection and isolation(FDI) approach using sliding mode observer is applied for estimating u...

A Nonlinear Programming algorithm that converges to second-order stationary points is introduced in this paper. The main tool is a second-order negative-curvature method for box-constrained minimization of a certain class of functions that do not possess continuous second derivatives. This method is used to define an Augmented Lagrangian algorithm of PHR (Powell-Hestenes-Rockafellar) type. Conv...
