One of the most important issues in the plant layout design especially in mass production organizations with high inter-plant logistics is‘material flow and inter-plant traffic analysis and its effects on the production capabilities or pauses in production lines. In this paper the inter-plant traffic analysis issue on the basis of single channel queue model (M/M/1) is analyzed in a carmaker c...

In Figure 1 we include a larger version of our linear depth-from-defocus results (Figure 4 in [5]), along with the corresponding result from [6] and from [2]. In Figure 2 we include similar results on another dataset from [6], along with corresponding result from [6] ([2] does not include results on this sequence.) In Figure 3 we include a larger version of our depth-from-defocus and motion res...

financial markets are considered because of their role in acquiring small and large savings of national economy, optimizing the flow of financial resources and distributing these resources to consumption and investment needs of economic sectors. the aim of this study was investigating the influence of financial market extension on agriculturalsector’s development of kohgilouye and boyer ahmad p...

The corrosion protection factor (c.p.f.) and the corrosion condition (cc.) are simple instruments for the study and evaluation of the contribution and efficiency of several methods of corrosion prevention and control. The application of c.p.f. and cc. to corrosion and prevention in agriculture in The Netherlands is considered in detail. Attention is paid to relations between c.p.f. and c.c., th...

the objective of this study was to develop a numerical model for the prediction of temperature distribution, effective plastic strain distribution, and especially material flow in friction stir welding of copper plates. the deform-3d software was used by incorporating a lagrangian incremental formulation. threedimensional results of the material flow pattern which were extracted using the point...

The U.S. is currently engulfed in the most severe financial crisis since the Great Depression. A key structural factor behind this crisis is the large demand for riskless assets from the rest of the world. In this paper we present a model to show how such demand not only triggered a sharp rise in U.S. asset prices, but also exposed the U.S. financial sector to a downturn by concentrating risk o...

This paper presents an integrated analysis of production and financing decisions. We construct a model in which a cash storage unit is installed to manage the cash flows associated with production activities such as raw material procurement, process operating setup, inventory holding costs and finished product sales. Temporary financial investments are allowed to increase profit. The production...
