Time delay spread and path loss measurements were performed in a large, active train yard to support development of intra-yard wireless communication systems, such as those intended to communicate with individual railcars and for track-to-terminal communications. Propagation measurements focused on three sites within the train yard: a close-in site, a paralleltrack site, and a cross-track site....

different resource of fertilizers had an effect on grain yield, oil and grain quality. information regarding the effect of simultaneous application of organic, chemical and biological fertilizers on canola (brassica napus l.) traits is not available. in order to study the effect of different systems of soil fertility on grain yield and quality of canola (talayeh cultivar), an experiment was con...

In this work, we address the unrestricted Dynamic Container Relocation Problem (DCRP). The DCRP is an extension of the Container Relocation Problem (CRP) that is NPhard. The CRP aims to empty a single yard-bay, which contains containers with a given retrieval sequence from the yardbay, such that the total number of relocations is minimized. The DCRP extends the CRP so that containers both arriv...

In container terminal operations, the storage yard plays an important role for a terminal’s overall performance because it links the seaside and landside and serves as the buffer area for storing containers. Therefore, storage and stacking logistics has become a field that increasingly attracts attentions in both academic and practical research during the recent years. The purpose of this artic...
