in order to implement the cellular manufacturing system in practice, some essential factors should be taken into account. in this paper, a new mathematical model for cellular manufacturing system considering different production factors including alternative process routings and machine reliability with stochastic arrival and service times in a dynamic environment is proposed. also because of t...

in this paper, a robust integral of the sign error (rise) feedback controller is designed for a rigid-link electrically driven (rled) robot manipulator actuated by direct current dc motor in presence of parametric uncertainties and additive disturbances. rise feedback with implicitly learning capability is a continuous control method based on the lyapunov stability analysis to compensate an add...

A new mathematical model based on the alternative process routings in presence of a queuing system in a dynamic cellular manufacturing system has been proposed in this paper.This model integrates two problems of cell formation and inter-cell layout and also an efficiency factor which is defined for minimizing the cell load variation through the maximizing the busy time for all machine types. In...

Weeds are a serious problem of chickpea cultivation in rain-fed areas of Iran and economic feasibility of crop production is mostly challenged by the method of control. In this study, two types of weed control strategies which are common in the country, including hand removing and hand removing + mechanical application, were compared with application of general herbicide (Glyphosite) using a sp...

A multi objective Honey Bee Mating Optimization (HBMO) designed by online learning mechanism is proposed in this paper to optimize the double Fuzzy-Lead-Lag (FLL) stabilizer parameters in order to improve low-frequency oscillations in a multi machine power system. The proposed double FLL stabilizer consists of a low pass filter and two fuzzy logic controllers whose parameters can be set by the ...

this paper analyzes a controllable discrete-time machine repair problem withl operating machines and two repairmen. the number of working servers can be adjusteddepending on the number of failed machines in the system one at a time at machine's failure orat service completion epochs. analytical closed-form solutions of the stationary probabilities ofthe number of failed machines in the sys...
