Integrated Modelling

Planning, scheduling, and timetabling problems are typically solved using different techniques despite the fact that all these areas seem very similar and they are definitely connected. In this paper we propose a generic model covering scheduling and timetabling problems as well as some problems from planning under time and resource constraints. Our model is motivated by reallife problems and o...

Modelling extreme stretching of DNA.

Molecular modelling with Jumna is used to study extreme stretching of the DNA double helix. The results, which correlate well with recent nanomanipulation experiments, show how the double helix can be extended to twice its normal length before its base pairs break. Depending on the way the duplex is stretched two types of conformation can occur, either an unwound flat ribbon or a narrow fibre w...

Modelling Extreme Temperature in Malaysia Using Generalized Extreme Value Distribution

Extreme temperature of several stations in Malaysia is modelled by fitting the monthly maximum to the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution. The Mann-Kendall (MK) test suggests a non-stationary model. Two models are considered for stations with trend and the Likelihood Ratio test is used to determine the best-fitting model. Results show that half of the stations favour a model which is l...
