The investment interests in the electricity industry are transmitted through various mechanisms to other economic activities. This paper considers methods for esteeming the adaptability of demand-side response (DSR) in its capacity to react to future uncertainties. The capacity to evaluate this adaptability is particularly critical for vitality frameworks speculations given their extensive and ...

In this paper, we give a probabilistic counterpart of  Mazur-Ulam theorem  in probabilistic normed groups. We show, under some conditions, that every surjective isometry between two probabilistic normed groups is a homomorphism.

Demand for business intelligence solutions continues to grow in the industry at record rates to combat competitive pressures and to attain business agility. Still organizations continue to struggle on how to implement successful business intelligence solutions. Despite its growing popularity and maturity as a field, it appears that organizations follow key guidelines that ensure the failure of ...

Optimizing the serviceability of highway bridges is a fundamental prerequisite to provide proper infrastructure safety and emergency responses after natural hazards such as an earthquake. In this regard, fragility resilience assessment have emerged important means describing potential seismic risk recovery process under uncertain inputs. Generating assessments requires estimating demand bridge ...

A pilot scale wastewater treatment plant was designed, constructed and operated on site to treat wastewater from a combined effluent drain. The activated sludge process (ASP) was used at three different hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 12, 10 and 8 hrs at an average MLSS concentration of 3500 mg/L. Under each HRT, the pilot plant was operated for a period of 10-12 weeks. Chemical oxygen deman...

The efforts of modern civilization to create an environment to meet human aspirations have successfully resulted in constant improvements of our lifestyle, but it has increased risks to human and ecological health. This situation has motivated many scientists throughout the world to analyze the environmental factors that can affect our health or ecology and to calculate the levels of risk. In B...

Seismic fragility analysis is an efficient method to evaluate the structural failure probability during earthquake events. Among existing methods, probabilistic seismic demand model (PSDM) and joint (JPSDM) are generally used compute component system fragility, respectively. However, statistical significance behind parameters related current PSDM JPSDM not comparable. Aside from that, when calc...

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This paper presents a mathematical framework to derive an inventory model for time, reliability, and advertisement dependent demand. This considers the demand rate is high initially, then reduces later stage, which reflects situation related cash in hand. The uncertain deterioration of product through Uniform, Triangular, Double Triangular probability distribu...
