A Dimensionless Mathematical Model

Assessment of Dimensionless Form of Kostiakov Model

Infiltration is the process by which water enters the earth’s surface. Although contribution of soil water to total water present on earth surface is negligible, but it is of prime importance for plant life. Very recently, dimensionless form of Kostiakov equation was proposed for precise estimation of Kostiakov model parameters. The present paper is an assessment of accuracy of proposed dimensi...

A Mathematical Model for Flood Protection

Many regions in the world are protected against flooding by a dike, which may be either natural or artificial. We deal with a model for finding the optimal heights of such a dike in the future. It minimizes the sum of the investments costs for upgrading the dike in the future and the expected costs due to flooding. The model is highly nonlinear, nonconvex, and infinite-dimensional. Despite this...

A New Mathematical Model for Permeability of Composites

Study of permeability of Fibrous Composites is important in several natural and industrial processes in mechanical engineering. In this study, a comprehensive mathematical model is presented for calculation of normal permeability of ordered elliptical fibrous media. An innovative scale-analysis technique is employed for determining the normal permeability of elliptical fibrous media. In this te...

A Mathematical Model for Multiple-Load AGVs in Tandem Layout

Reducing cost of material handling has been a big challenge for companies. Flexible manufacturing system employed automated guided vehicles (AGV) to maintain efficiency and flexibility. This paper presents a new non-linear mathematical programming model to group n machines into N loops, to make an efficient configuration for AGV system in Tandem layout. The model minimizes bot...
