this paper presents a new nonlinear mathematical model to solve a cell formation problem which assumes that processing time and inter-arrival time of parts are random variables. in this research, cells are defined as a queue system which will be optimized via queuing theory. in this queue system, each machine is assumed as a server and each part as a customer. the grouping of machines and parts...

precision forging process is widely used for the production of spur gears due to its advantages such asimproved strength and surface finish, little waste of materials and reduction in the machining time ofthe gear. an important aspect of precision forging process is the load required to perform the processsuccessfully and design the forging tools. in this research, a new kinematically admissibl...

In this study, we introduce a new two-way relay channel and obtain an inner bound and an outer bound for the discrete and memoryless multiple access relay channels with receiver-source feedback via two-way relay channel in which end nodes exchange signals by a relay node. And we extend these results to the Gaussian case. By numerical computing, we show that our inner bound is the same with o...

in this paper, the direct extrusion process of bimetallic rods in conical dies is analyzed by an improved upper bound method. the deformation zone is subdivided into six smaller zones and by considering a non-spherical entrance boundary to the deformation zone, a velocity field is presented which is different from velocity fields employed in previous studies. the total power consumption of the ...

we consider online scheduling of jobs with specic release time on m identical machines. each job has a weight and a size; the goal is maximizing total weight of completed jobs. at release time of a job it must immediately be scheduled on a machine or it will be rejected. it is also allowed during execution of a job to preempt it; however, it will be lost and only weight of completed jobs contr...

air defense is a crucial area for all naval combat systems. in this study, we consider a warship equipped with an air-defense weapon that targets incoming threats using surface-to-air missiles. we define the weapon scheduling problem as the optimal scheduling of a set of surface-to-air missiles of a warship to a set of attacking air threats. the optimal scheduling of the weapon results in an in...

‎In this paper we give an upper bound for Noetherian dimension of all injective modules with Krull dimension on arbitrary rings‎. ‎In particular‎, ‎we also give an upper bound for Noetherian dimension of all Artinian modules on Noetherian duo rings.

In $1994,$ degree distance  of a graph was introduced by Dobrynin, Kochetova and Gutman. And Gutman proposed the Gutman index of a graph in $1994.$ In this paper, we introduce the concepts of  multiplicative version of degree distance and the multiplicative version of Gutman index of a graph. We find the sharp upper bound for the  multiplicative version of degree distance and multiplicative ver...
