An LP model for optimizing a supply chain management system for steel company
(
Newswood Limited
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this research, we have developed a linear programming formulation to describe Qatar steel manufacturing supply chain from suppliers to consumers. The purpose of the model is to provide answers regarding the optimal ...
A framework for optimizing the supply chain performance of a steel producer
(2013 , Conference Paper)
Supply Chain Management (SCM) is focused on developing, optimizing, and operating efficient supply chains. Efficient supply chains are characterized by cost effective decisions, lean flow and structure, high degree of ...
An analytic network process condition assessment model for sewer pipelines
(
Civil-Comp Press
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
As sewer pipelines age, the need for their upgrading, maintaining, and repairing arises. Simultaneously, inadequate sewer pipelines might lead to catastrophic failures. Thus, decision makers must have a detailed knowledge ...
An integrated ANP and er condition assessment model for sewer pipelines
(
International Society for Trenchless Technology
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
As sewer networks age, the need for their maintenance arises. Simultaneously, inadequate rehabilitation of sewer pipelines might cause catastrophic failures. Thus, municipalities worldwide must have a detailed knowledge ...
Melt Processing and Properties of Polyamide 6/Graphene Nanoplatelet Composites
(
ICCCM
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the processing and characterization of Polyamide 6 (PA6) / graphite nanoplatelets
(GNPs) composites is reported. PA6/GNPs composites were prepared by melt-mixing using an
industrial, co-rotating, intermeshing, ...
A high efficiency and high reliability single-phase modified quasi Z-Source inverter for non-isolated grid-connected applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Quazi Z-Source inverter (qZSI) is a promising inverter topology that can buck or boost input voltage without a DC-DC converter and hence can be used in transformerless configuration. This is a high efficiency solution ...
Bayesian network and response surface methodology for prediction and improvement of bacterial metabolite production
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The optimization of antifungal activity production by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was carried out using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) in two steps. The first step involved the screening of cultural parameters affecting ...
Pore-scale mechanisms associated with permeability impairment in porous media: A micromodel study
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Recently, researchers are attracted towards the gas production from hydrate bearing sediments considering its abundance in marine continental margins and persisting demand for alternate energy. Dissociation of hydrate into ...
Impact of fines type on gas flow using 3D micro-computed tomography
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Methane hydrates are promising unconventional energy source with natural reserves above 1,000 Trillion m3. Hydrates are found in saturated sandy sediments, where multi-phase flow of gas takes place through sediment's pores, ...
Hydrate surface area measurements during dissociation using dynamic 3d synchrotron computed tomography
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Availability of natural hydrates and ongoing rise in demand for energy, motivated researchers to consider hydrates as a potential energy source. Prior to gas production operations from hydrate-bearing sediments, hydrate ...
