On the enumeration of k-omino towers
We describe a class of geometric objects called k-omino towers that are created by stacking blocks of size k×1×1 on a convex base composed of these same k-omino blocks. These towers are equivalent to a class of fixed polyominoes or lattice animals, through the creation of a polyomino using the boundary of the two-dimensional vertical face of the tower. By applying a partition to the set of k-om...
متن کاملDroplet Condensation and Isoperimetric Towers
We consider a variational problem in a planar convex domain, motivated by statistical mechanics of crystal growth in a saturated solution. The minimizers are constructed explicitly and are completely characterized.
متن کاملQuantitative Risk Assessment of Condensate Storage Tank, Considering Domino Effects
Introduction: In process industries, some of the primary events may result in secondary events in an industrial unit called the domino effect. Since refinery storage tanks are always at risk of fire and explosion, quantitative risk assessment is important in determining the severity and outcome of an accident, taking into account the effects of dominoes on the main industry, neighbors, and soci...
متن کاملA New Methodology for Frequency Estimation of Second or Higher Level Domino Accidents in Chemical and Petrochemical Plants Using Monte Carlo Simulation
Some of the most destructive accidents of 1980s and 90s which occurred in process industries were domino accidents. Although domino accidents are among the most destructive industrial accidents, there are not much pioneering works done on quantification of them. The analytical formulation of the domino accidents is usually complex and need a deep knowledge of probability rules. Even if the ...
متن کاملProviding an algorithm for solving general optimization problems based on Domino theory
Optimization is a very important process in engineering. Engineers can create better production only if they make use of optimization tools in reduction of its costs including consumption time. Many of the engineering real-word problems are of course non-solvable mathematically (by mathematical programming solvers). Therefore, meta-heuristic optimization algorithms are needed to solve these pro...
