A Multi-Dam System Design for Zambezi River

A Multi-objective Hierarchical Location-allocation Model for the Healthcare Network Design Considering a Referral System

This paper presents a multi-objective and multi-service location-allocation model with capacity planning to design a healthcare facilities network through considering a referral system. Therefore, a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model containing two objective functions is proposed. The first objective function is  relates to minimization of total opening cost, minimization of tota...

the poor orientation of the restaurants toward the information technology has yet many unsolved issues in regards to the customers. one of these problems which lead the appeal list of later, and have a negative impact on the prestige of the restaurant is the case when the later does not respond on time to the customers’ needs, and which causes their dissatisfaction. this issue is really sensiti...

Injuries and medical issues on the Zambezi "Great River".

We report the injuries and medical issues incurred during a rowing expedition conducted along the Zambezi River in May 2011. All injuries and illnesses requiring medical intervention were recorded during a 30-day expedition. There were 22 rowers and 8 support staff sustaining 32 injuries, an injury incidence of 36 per 1000 days. We discuss the medical issues regarding conducting an expedition a...

A modelling methodology for natural dam-river network systems

An approach for modelling a natural dam-river network system is proposed in this paper. Generally, the relationships among the variables of a natural dam-river network system are complex and difficult to be described. In this paper, we present some simple first principle relationships among the water levels measured at a limited number of points of the network system such that a model is achiev...
