This article is proposed to address the melting heat transfer of a Jeffrey fluid in Blasius and Sakiadis flow caused due to a moving surface. Thermal radiation and a constant free stream are considered in this mathematical model. The non-linear coupled dimensionless equations from the governing equations are attained by employing appropriate similarity transformations. The resulting dimensionle...

The present work illustrates the variable viscosity of dust nanofluid runs over a permeable stretched sheet with thermal radiation. The problem has been modelled mathematically introducing the mixed convective condition and magnetic effect. Additionally analysis of entropy generation and Bejan number provides the fine points of the flow. The of model equations are transformed into non-linear or...

Although lot streaming scheduling is an active research field, lot streaming flexible flow lines problems have received far less attention than classical flow shops. This paper deals with scheduling jobs in lot streaming flexible flow line problems. The paper mathematically formulates the problem by a mixed integer linear programming model. This model solves small instances to optimality. Moreo...

in this paper, the magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) boundary layer flow over a nonlinear porous stretching sheet is investigated by employing the homotopy perturbation transform method (hptm) and the pade´ approximation. the numerical solution of the governing non-linear problem is developed. comparison of the present solution is made with the existing solution and excellent agreement is noted. graphi...

analysis of non-laminar flows in coarse alluvial beds has a wide range of applications in various civil engineering, oil and gas, and geology problems. darcy equation is not valid to analyze transient and turbulent flows, so non-linear equations should be applied. non-linear equations are classified into power and binomial equations. binomial equation is more accurate in a wide range of velocit...

A fractional minimal cost flow problem under linear type belief degree based uncertainty is studied for the first time. This type of uncertainty is useful when no historical information of an uncertain event is available. The problem is crisped using an uncertain chance-constrained programming approach and its non-linear objective function is linearized by a variable changing approach. An illus...

This discussion addresses some aspects of the paper “Feedback Stabilization of Infinite-Dimensional Linear Systems with Constraints on Control and its Rate”, which investigates the design of stabilizing controllers for a certain class of systems with constrained controls. In particular, in this discussion we emphasize the importance of considering simultaneously constraints on the magnitude and...

This paper presents a discussion of the Generalized Network System (GNS), a system that captures knowledge about generalized network flow problems, in order to help users formulate, solve and interpret generalized network flow problems. Although previous researchers have built intelligent systems that incorporate knowledge about linear programming, this system includes more specific knowledge a...

A procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. The method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. The main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibri...
