We present a new skew-normal distribution, denoted by NSN($lambada$). We first derive the density and moment generating function of NSN($lambada$). The properties of SN($lambada$), the known skew-normal distribution of Azzalini, and NSN($lambada$) are compared with each other. Finally, a numerical example for testing about the parameter $lambada$ in NSN($lambada$) is given. ...

We study the single server queueing system with two types of Abstract failure to servicechannels including the preemptive priority to the repair of major failure. The units arrive at thesystem in a poisson fashion and are served exponenitally. The steady - state probabilities ofvarious states by using generating function have been obtained.

This paper has been worked on a RAP with multi-state components and the performance rate of each component working state may increase by spending technical and organizational activities costs. Whereas RAP belongs to Np-Hard problems, we used Genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA) and for solving the presented problem and calculating system reliability universal generating function ...

in this paper, a practical review of the adomian decomposition method, to extend the procedure to handle the strongly nonlinear problems under the mixed conditions, is given and the convergence of the algorithm is proved. for this respect, a new and simple way to generate the adomian polynomials, for a general nonlinear function, is proposed. the proposed procedure, provides an explicit formula...

this paper presents a formulation of unit commitment for thermal units integrated with wind and solar energy systems and electrical vehicles with emphasizing on mixed integer nonlinear programming (minlp). the renewable energy resources are included in this model due to their low electricity cost and positive effect on environment. as well as, coordinated charging strategy of electrical vehicle...
