Solving a Bus Routing Problem Arising in Doha
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
The generic variant of the school bus routing problem requires finding a set of routes that cover a predefined set of student pickup locations in order to minimize travel time while satisfying various constraints. In this ...
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 ...
Global evaluation of WBGT and SET indices for outdoor environments using thermal imaging and artificial neural networks
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
The health and well-being of occupants of outdoor environments are largely affected by thermal stress, and therefore a global assessment is essential. Wet-bulb globe-temperature (WBGT) is used as a heat stress indicator ...
Experimental investigation and artificial intelligence-based modeling of the residual impact damage effect on the crashworthiness of braided Carbon/Kevlar tubes
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Other)
Fiber reinforced plastic composites are promising candidates for building the next generation of automotive and aircraft structures. However, these materials are sensitive to any potential impact, which may cause matrix ...
Experimental Investigation and Uncertainty Prediction of the Load-Carrying Capacity of Composite Double Hat for Lattice Core Sandwich Panels Using Artificial Neural Network
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Carbon fiber reinforced composites are promising candidates for building advanced multifunctional structures with superior properties that are suitable for the next generation of automotive and aircraft applications. This ...
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. ...
The use of composite to eliminate the effect of welding on the bending behavior of metallic pipes
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
In this study, the fiber-reinforced polymeric composite (FRP) overwrap system is proposed to eliminate the effect of the heat-affected zone on the pressure capacity and the deterioration property of the welded pipes. The ...
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. ...
