Throughput optimization for the Robotic Cell Problem with Controllable Processing Times
(
EDP Sciences
, 2017 , Article)
In this paper, we present a MIP-based heuristic and an effective genetic algorithm for the Robotic Cell Problem with Controllable Processing Times (RCPCPT). This problem arises in modern automated manufacturing systems and ...
Study to identify computational fluid dynamics models for use in determining HVAC duct fitting loss coefficients
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
This article presents results from a systematic study to establish whether computational fluid dynamics techniques are capable of predicting pressure drop in close-coupled five-gore elbows having nominal diameters of 203 ...
Eeonomer 200F: A High-Performance Nanofiller for Polymer Reinforcement-Investigation of the Structure, Morphology and Dielectric Properties of Polyvinyl Alcohol/Eeonomer-200F Nanocomposites for Embedded Capacitor Applications
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
In the present study, Eeonomer 200F® was used as a high-performance nanofiller to prepare polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based nanocomposite films using a simple and eco-friendly solution casting technique. The prepared PVA/Eeonomer ...
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/polystyrene sulfonic acid (PSSA)/carbon black nanocomposite for flexible energy storage device applications
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
Herein, we report the preparation and characterizations of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polystyrene sulfonic acid (PSSA) blend nanocomposites reinforced with carbon black nanoparticles (CBNPs). The structural changes, ...
Variable Selection-based Multivariate Cumulative Sum Control Chart
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
High-dimensional applications pose a significant challenge to the capability of conventional statistical process control techniques in detecting abnormal changes in process parameters. These techniques fail to recognize ...
Solution-processed white graphene-reinforced ferroelectric polymer nanocomposites with improved thermal conductivity and dielectric properties for electronic encapsulation
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2017 , Article)
The recent surge in graphene research has stimulated interest in the investigation of various two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, including 2D boron nitride (BN) nanostructures. Among these, hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets ...
Effect of nanostructured polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane on the physical properties of poly(vinyl alcohol)
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
An effective amphiphilic polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) encapsulated poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanocomposite was successfully fabricated by solution blending method. Anionic octa(tetramethylammonium) (Octa-TMA) ...
Microton irradiation induced tuning of dielectric properties of nano ZnO-natural rubber disks
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The effect of electron beam irradiation of dielectric and conductivity properties of nano ZnO-natural rubber (NR) disks was investigated here. It is revealed that electric properties such as AC conductivity, dielectric ...
Performance Comparison Between Fast Fourier Transform-Based Segmentation, Feature Selection, and Fault Identification Algorithm and Neural Network for the Condition Monitoring of Centrifugal Equipment
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2017 , Article)
This paper compares and evaluates the performance of two major feature selection and fault identification methods utilized for the condition monitoring (CM) of centrifugal equipment, namely fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based ...
Replacement Policies for Periodic Damage Models
(
World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
A new periodic damage model is proposed in this paper, where the damage produced by shocks is only measured at periodic times, without considering the stochastic shocks and the cumulative process of damage in discrete ...
