This study considers instant decision-making needs of the automobile manufactures for resequencing vehicles before final assembly (FA). We propose a rule-based two-stage stochastic model to determine the number of spare vehicles that should be kept in the pre-assembly buffer to restore the altered sequence due to paint defects and upstream department constraints. First stage of the model decide...

the synthesis of heat integrated multi-component distillation systems is complex due to its huge search space for structural combination and optimization computation. to provide a systematic approach and tools for the synthesis design of distillation systems, a new method for modeling heat integrated columns is presented, and the operating cost objective function is minimized by improved harmon...

background: fasciola species are parasitic trematode with world wide distribution that infects wild and domesticated herbivores, particularly ruminants. the aim of the present study was to investigate the intra species variations of f. gigantica, from goats and buffalos isolates in two common geographic climates of iran. methods: fasciola species were collected from goat, buffalo, sheep, and ca...

objective(s) in addition to several molecular methods and in particular 16s rdna analysis, the application of a more discriminatory genetic marker, i.e., 16s-23s internal transcribed spacer gene sequence has had a great impact on identification and classification of mycobacteria. in the current study we aimed to apply this sequencing power to conclusive identification of some iranian clinical s...

background: thioredoxin reductase 1 (txnrd1) and thioredoxin interacting protein (txnip) also known as thioredoxin binding protein 2 or vitamin d3-upregulated protein 1 are key players in oxidative stress control. thioredoxin (trx) is one of the major components of the thiol reducing system and plays multiple roles in cellular processes. computational analyses of txnrd1, txnip and trx expressio...

background: gossypium thurberi is a wild diploid species that has been used to improve cultivated allotetraploid cotton. g. thurberi belongs to d genome, which is an important wild bio-source for the cotton breeding and genetic research. to a certain degree, chloroplast dna sequence information are a versatile tool for species identification and phylogenetic implications in plants. different ch...

in this paper, we establish some new results in ultra bessel sequences and ultra bessel sequences of subspaces. also, we investigate ultra bessel sequences in direct sums of hilbert spaces.specially, we show that {( fi, gi)}∞ i=1 is a an ultra bessel sequencefor hilbert space h ⊕ k if and only if { fi}∞ i=1 and {gi}∞ i=1 are ultrabessel sequences for hilbert spaces h and k, respectively.

p. atlantica subsp. kurdica, with the local name of baneh, is a wild medicinal plant which grows in kurdistan, iran.  the identification of resistance gene analogs holds great promise for the development of resistant cultivars. a pcr approach with degenerate primers designed according to conserved nbs-lrr (nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat) regions of known disease-resistance (r) gene...

In the present work, the exergy analysis and economic study of 3 different samples of threecomponent mixtures have been investigated (ESI>1, ESI≈1, and ESI<1). The feed mixture has been tested under three different compositions (low, equal, and high contents of the intermediate component). A quantitative comparison between simple and complex configurations, considering thermally coupled, thermo...
