Determination of shipment quantity and distribution problem is an important subject in today’s business. This paper describes the inventory/distribution network design. The system addresses a class of distribution network design problem, which is characterized by multiple products family, multiple warehouses and retail-ers. The maximum capacity of vehicles and warehouses are also known. The res...

The operation of Fuel Cell Distributed Generation (FCDG) systems in distribution systems is introduced by modeling, controller design, and simulation study of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) distributed generation (DG) system. The physical model of the fuel cell stack and dynamic models of power conditioning units are described. Then, suitable control architecture based on fuzzy logic contro...

Transmission system operators (TSOs) often set requirements to distribution (DSOs) regarding the exchange of reactive power on interface between two parts they operate, typically High Voltage and Medium Voltage. The presence increasing amounts Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) at networks complicates problem, but provides control opportunities in order keep within prescribed limits. Typical D...

    Discrete facility location,   Distribution center,   Logistics,   Inventory policy,   Queueing theory,   Markov processes, The distribution center location problem is a crucial question for logistics decision makers. The optimization of these decisions needs careful attention to the fixed facility costs, inventory costs, transportation costs and customer responsiveness. In this paper we stu...

This paper considers a single-sourcing network design problem for a three-level supply chain. For the first time, a novel mathematical model is presented considering risk-pooling, the inventory existence at distribution centers (DCs) under demand uncertainty, the existence of several alternatives to transport the product between facilities, and routing of vehicles from distribution centers to c...

In this study, we proposed a joint time-frequency distribution of suppressing cross-terms aiming at cross-terms interference of Wigner-Ville distribution. According to the analyzed signal, the Wigner-Ville distribution and Smooth Pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution can be obtained. Moreover, the prototype of timefrequency distribution can be obtained by non-linear filter for Smooth Pseudo Wigner-V...

We propose the subcarrier domain of multicarrier continuous-variable (CV) quantum key distribution (QKD). In a multicarrier CVQKD scheme, the information is granulated into Gaussian subcarrier CVs and the physical Gaussian link is divided into Gaussian subchannels. The sub-channels are dedicated for the conveying of the subcarrier CVs. The angular domain utilizes the phase-space angles of the G...

QKD is an innovative technology which exploits the laws of quantum mechanics to generate and distribute unconditionally secure cryptographic keys. While QKD offers the promise of unconditionally secure key distribution, real world systems are built from non-ideal components which necessitates the need to model and understand the impact these non-idealities have on system performance and securit...
