Mathematical optimization approach for facility layout on several rows
The facility layout problem is concerned with finding an arrangement of non-overlap** indivisible departments within a facility so as to minimize...
-
New exact approaches to row layout problems
Given a set of departments, a number of rows and pairwise connectivities between these departments, the multi-row facility layout problem (
MRFLP )... -
The Constrained Single-Row Facility Layout Problem with Repairing Mechanisms
The single-row facility layout problem (SRFLP), which deals with the placement of some facilities along a row by minimizing the overall material flow... -
Single-Row Spherical Domes in Stereotomy Treatises
This article focuses on analysing and modelling geometrically a complex vault typology known as single-row spherical dome, which was defined in...

Data Reduction for Optimizing the Attitude Control Dispatch in a Spacecraft
This work originates from a dedicated attitude control dispatch study (discussed in another chapter of this book) carried out in the context of the... -
Explicit Interpolation-Based CFD Mesh Morphing
This paper describes mesh morphing methodology based on explicit interpolation. The method handles large displacements while maintaining high mesh... -
Data-driven graph drawing techniques with applications for conveyor systems
The visualization of conveyor systems in the sense of a connected graph is a challenging problem. Starting from communication data provided by the IT...
