Modeling multiple stage manufacturing systems with generalized costs and capacity issues

This study introduces one modeling methodology that describes a broad range of multiple stage production planning issues, including multiple limited resources with setup times and joint fixed cost relationships. An existing production system is modeled in this fashion, creating a new set of 1350 highly generalized benchmark problems. A computational study is conducted with the 1350 benchmark problems introduced in this paper and 2100 benchmark problems, with more restrictive assumptions, from the existing literature. The relative merits of a decomposition‐based algorithm and a neighborhood search technique known as NIPPA, or the Non‐sequential Incremental Part Period Algorithm, are assessed. NIPPA is generally the more successful of the two techniques, although there are specific instances in which the decomposition‐based algorithm displayed a distinct advantage. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A multi‐objective model for bank ATM networks

In this paper we present an application of the core solution concepts for multi‐objective games to a bank ATM network model. In these games, the worth of a coalition is given by a subset of vectors of the k‐dimensional space rather than by a scalar. The paper investigates how an ATM network model based on multi‐objective cooperative game theory could be used as an alternative way of setting interchange fees paid by the customer's bank to the one that owns the ATM. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Approximations and empirics for stochastic war equations

The article develops a theorem which shows that the Lanchester linear war equations are not in general equal to the Kolmogorov linear war equations. The latter are time‐consuming to solve, and speed is important when a large number of simulations must be run to examine a large parameter space. Run times are provided, where time is a scarce factor in warfare. Four time efficient approximations are presented in the form of ordinary differential equations for the expected sizes and variances of each group, and the covariance, accounting for reinforcement and withdrawal of forces. The approximations are compared with “exact” Monte Carlo simulations and empirics from the WWII Ardennes campaign. The band spanned out by plus versus minus the incremented standard deviations captures some of the scatter in the empirics, but not all. With stochastically varying combat effectiveness coefficients, a substantial part of the scatter in the empirics is contained. The model is used to forecast possible futures. The implications of increasing the combat effectiveness coefficient governing the size of the Allied force, and injecting reinforcement to the German force during the Campaign, are evaluated, with variance assessments. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

化学激光器环形与线形分流管道对比的数值分析

环柱型化学激光器中使用的分流管道的总管为环形弯曲管道,支管分布在内侧圆弧或外侧圆弧上,结构与线形分流管道有较大差别。应用计算流体力学方法,对上述各分流管道进行了三维的数值模拟及对比分析。结果表明,线形分流管道总管内的总压高于支管分布在外侧圆弧上的环形管道,但低于支管分布在内侧圆弧上的环形管道;无论是支管分流,抑或环形管道内的二次流现象都会使总管截面上产生径向速度,使得流体流动呈现明显的三维特征;分流管道各支管流量沿主流流动方向基本上是上升的,这与总管的总压分布趋势相反,而与总管的静压分布趋势相似;比较而言,支管分布在外侧圆弧上的环形分流管道的支管流量波动幅度最小,在均匀分配气流方面最具优势,线形分流管道居中,支管分布在内侧圆弧上的环形分流管道最差。
