Line balancing means balancing the production line, or any assembly line. The main objective of line balancing is to distribute the task over the each work station so that idle time of labor of machine can be minimized. Line balancing aims at grouping the resources or labor in an efficient and best pattern in order to obtain an optimum or proper balance of the resources and flows of the product...

The problem of scheduling manufacturing systems where the capacity of a production resource is subject to stochastic change, is the subject of this paper. Resources which are dependent upon labour intensive processes provide typical examples. In the United Kingdom the manufacture of clothing garments is still dominated by the progressive bundle system. Garments are produced on a continuous-ow p...

Motivated by decoupling e ects in coupled oscillators, by viscous shock proles in systems of nonlinear hyperbolic balance laws, and by binary oscillation e ects in discretizations of systems of hyperbolic balance laws, we consider vector elds with a one-dimensional line of equilibria, even in the absence of any parameters. Besides a trivial eigenvalue zero we assume that the linearization at th...

With the development of quantitative remote sensing, regional evapotranspiration (ET) modeling based on the feature space has made substantial progresses. Among those feature space based evapotranspiration models, accurate determination of the theoretical dry/wet lines remains a challenging task. This paper reports the development of a new method, named DDTI (Determination of Dry line by Therma...

Landslides, like other natural hazards, such as avalanches, floods, and debris flows, may result in a lot of property damage and human casualties. The volume of landslide deposits is a key parameter for landslide studies and disaster relief. Using remote sensing and digital terrain model (DTM) data, this paper analyzes errors that can occur in calculating landslide volumes using conventional mo...

conclusions it seems that plantar changes have insignificant effect on static and dynamic indices evaluated by the biodex balance system. objectives the current study aimed to evaluate the relation between these structural characteristics and balance indices. patients and methods the study population was 100 male and female students from semnan university of medical sciences, semnan, iran. to e...

OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of aging on balance control during walking. DESIGN Two-group repeated-measures design. SETTING Gait laboratory in Australia. PARTICIPANTS Convenience sample of 20 healthy older subjects (mean age, 72y) and 20 healthy young subjects (mean age, 24y). INTERVENTIONS Changes in locomotor performance in response to perturbations to balance were quantified fo...

Rotor mass imbalance is the main cause of vibration overload high-end turbine units, which can easily induce a variety failures such as shaft tile and seal wear, blade breakage. The online automatic balancing system solve problem rotor during operation equipment, at same time ensure long-term stable equipment. Therefore, new pneumatic–liquid on-line balance (PLOABS) proposed for has advantages ...
