Haar Matrix Equations for Solving Time-Variant Linear-Quadratic Optimal Control Problems

Saeed Nezhadhosein

Volume 2, Issue 2 , December 2017, Pages 1-14

Abstract
  ‎In this paper‎, ‎Haar wavelets are performed for solving continuous time-variant linear-quadratic optimal control problems‎. ‎Firstly‎, ‎using necessary conditions for optimality‎, ‎the problem is changed into a two-boundary value problem (TBVP)‎. ‎Next‎, ...  Read More

Application of Grey System Theory in Rainfall Estimation

Davood Darvishi Salookolaei; Sifeng Liu; Parvin Babaei

Volume 2, Issue 2 , December 2017, Pages 15-32

Abstract
  Considering the fact that Iran is situated in an arid and semi-arid region, rainfall prediction for the management of water resources is very important and necessary. Researchers have proposed various prediction methods that have been utilized in such areas as water and meteorology, especially water ...  Read More

Two-Level Optimization Problems with Infinite Number of Convex Lower Level Constraints

Nader Kanzi

Volume 2, Issue 2 , December 2017, Pages 33-44

Abstract
  ‎This paper proposes a new form of optimization problem which is a two-level programming problem with infinitely many lower level constraints‎. ‎Firstly‎, ‎we consider some lower level constraint qualifications (CQs) for this problem‎. ‎Then‎, ‎under these CQs‎, ...  Read More

Optimal Shape Design for a Cooling Pin Fin Connection Profil

Seyed Hamed Hashemi Mehne; Khodayar Javadi

Volume 2, Issue 2 , December 2017, Pages 61-76

Abstract
  A shape optimization problem of cooling fins for computer parts and integrated circuits is modeled and solved in this paper. The main purpose is to determine the shape of a two-dimensional pin fin, which leads to the maximum amount of removed heat. To do this, the shape optimization problem is defined ...  Read More

Optimizing the Static and Dynamic Scheduling problem of Automated Guided Vehicles in Container Terminals

Hassan Rashidi

Volume 2, Issue 2 , December 2017, Pages 77-101

Abstract
  The Minimum Cost Flow (MCF) problem is a well-known problem in the area of network optimisation. To tackle this problem, Network Simplex Algorithm (NSA) is the fastest solution method. NSA has three extensions, namely Network Simplex plus Algorithm (NSA+), Dynamic Network Simplex Algorithm (DNSA) and ...  Read More
