Rain Gauge Station Network Design for Hormozgan Province in Iran
A rain gauge network should serve general as well as specific purposes such as water supply, hydropowergeneration, flood forecasting, irrigation, and flood control. The level of accuracy a network can achieve depends onthe number and locations of gauges in the network. In this study, a rain gauge network was designed for Hormozganprovince in the south of Iran. Monthly rainfall totals from 124 r...
متن کاملAlternative fuel station location model with demand learning
In this paper, we study the optimal location decision for a network of alternative fuel stations (AFS) servicing a new market where the demand rate for the refueling service can be learned over time. In the presence of demand learning, the firm needs to make a decision, whether to actively learn the market through a greater initial investment in the AFS network or defer the commitment since an ...
متن کاملAn optimization framework for cost effective design of refueling station infrastructure for alternative fuel vehicles
Historically, gasoline and diesel fuels have been used for transportation, but the possible decline of oil supplies in the future is forcing nations to consider alternative fuels. Most technically and economically feasible alternative fuels have a lower energy density than gasoline, which results in a shorter range for these vehicles. This necessitates a greater need for convenient access to re...
متن کاملPolling Systems with Job Failures and with Station Failures
We consider a polling system with Exhaustive service policy subject to job failures or to station failures. Each of the N stations (nodes) comprising the system is, in isolation, an M/G/1type queue. Failures at each node follow a Poisson process. A job failure causes the job to be rejected from the system, while a station failure (breakdown) causes the server to switch over to the next node. Th...
متن کاملBlood lead level among fuel station workers.
OBJECTIVES This study aims to determine the level of lead in blood of fuel station workers and in a group of people not occupationally exposed to lead METHODS 53 control subjects with low risk lead exposure and 45 fuel station workers comprising the study group were included in this study in a period from September 2008 to December 2009. Blood samples were collected and analyzed for each subj...
