Greedy algorithms and metaheuristics for a multiple runway combined arrival-departure aircraft sequencing problem
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
This paper examines the Aircraft Sequencing Problem (ASP) over multiple runways, under mixed mode operations with the objective of minimizing the total weighted tardiness of aircraft landings and departures simultaneously. ...
Meta-heuristics for aircraft arrival and departure scheduling on multiple runways
(
Institute of Industrial Engineers
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
The problem of scheduling aircrafts on multiple runways can be modeled as an identical parallel machine scheduling with release times, target times and deadlines. To schedule arriving and departing aircrafts as close as ...
Heuristic algorithms for aircraft sequencing problem
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Delays in flights resulting in multi-billion-dollar losses are declared annually worldwide. Hence, an identification of air traffic policies that can reduce frequent and costly inefficiencies is needed. The problem of ...
Multiple-runway aircraft sequencing problems using mixed-integer programming
(
Institute of Industrial Engineers
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
We examine aircraft sequencing problems over multiple runways, under mixed mode operations, with the objective of minimizing the total weighted tardiness of aircraft landings and departures. A mixed-integer programming ...
Optimization of reliability and maintenance of liquefaction system on FLNG terminals using Markov modelling
(
Emerald Group Publishing Ltd.
, 2014 , Article)
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to optimize system redundancy and maintenance intervals of a propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant (C3MR) liquefaction process on floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) export platforms. ...
A novel robust automated FFT-based segmentation and features selection algorithm for acoustic emission condition based monitoring systems
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
This paper aims at developing a robust, fast-response and automated FFT-based features selection algorithm for the development of acoustic emission practical condition based monitoring applications of mechanical systems. ...
Structural topology optimization considering complexity
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
As topology optimization is a free-form approach to optimizing structural layout, it has a tendency to design structures that are topologically complex. In large-scale structures, this complexity drives construction costs ...
The (IM)-possible mosque: Spatial mutation and identity needs in northern Ireland
(
Emerald Publishing
, 2012 , Article)
Over more than thirty years of violent conflict, Northern Ireland had an intense sectarian violence due to the political-religious opposition between its Catholic and Protestant communities. The history of the Muslim ...
Application of a property-based inherently safety quantification framework for integrating risk assessment into process safety life cycle
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Process plant involves different types of risks which need to be managed appropriately to avoid dangerous incidents. Some risks are associated with design decisions such as choice of unit, chemicals or design layout etc. ...
Energy integration alternatives for effective use of waste heat associated with flaring during abnormal situation
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This work reports a multi-objective optimization frame work for new/modified design solutions for energy integration to manage flares from uncertain sources during abnormal situation. It also suggests some energy integration ...
