Design of thin wall structures for energy absorption applications: Enhancement of crashworthiness due to axial and oblique impact forces
(2013 , Article)
This paper describes a computationally aided design process of a thin wall structure subject to dynamic compression in both axial and oblique directions. Several different cross sectional shapes of thin walled structures ...
An integrated approach for airline flight selection and timing, fleet assignment, and aircraft routing
(
INFORMS Inst.for Operations Res.and the Management Sciences
, 2013 , Article)
Airline profits critically depend on the nature and efficiency of service they provide and accrue from a complex planning process involving schedule design fleet assignment aircraft routing and crew scheduling which are ...
Using hierarchical composite approach to improve mechanical response of Mg and Mg–Bi2O3 nano-composites
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
Novel Mg nano-composites reinforced with either Bi2O3 nano-particles or hybrid Al–Bi2O3 particles (Bi2O3 nano-particles hybridized with Al using ball milling) have been synthesized, in this work, through powder metallurgy ...
A lifted compact formulation for the daily aircraft maintenance routing problem
(
INFORMS Inst.for Operations Res.and the Management Sciences
, 2013 , Article)
Given a set of flights for a specific fleet type the aircraft routing problem (ARP) determines the flying sequence for each individual aircraft while incorporating specific considerations of minimum turn time maintenance ...
A model for enhancing robustness of aircraft and passenger connections
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
Airlines schedules are often subject to various uncontrollable factors that cause disruptions and delays. These delays not only constitute, for many passengers, the painful part of air travel, but also represent for airlines ...
Condition-based maintenance for continuously monitored degrading systems with multiple failure modes
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2013 , Article)
This article develops an optimum Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) policy for continuously monitored degrading systems with multiple failure modes. The degradation of system state is described by a stochastic process, and ...
Adaptive cumulative sum charts with the adaptive runs rule
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2013 , Article)
Adaptive cumulative sum (ACUSUM) charts, which adjust the reference value dynamically based on estimated shift size, provide good performance in detecting a range of mean shifts. However, when the range is wide, ACUSUM may ...
