Resource investment problem with discounted cash flows (RIPDCFs) is a class of project scheduling problem. In RIPDCF, the availability levels of the resources are considered decision variables, and the goal is to find a schedule such that the net present value of the project cash flows optimizes. In this paper, we consider a new RIPDCF in which tardiness of project is permitted with defined penalty. We mathematically formulated the problem and developed a heuristic method to solve it. The results of the performance analysis of the proposed method show an effective solution approach to the problem.

The bending behaviour of thin stripes and leaf springs, in the presence of large deflections, is ruled by the so-called Bernoulli—Euler equation. The standard solution approach of this problem (‘elastica’) is represented by the non-linear finite-element analysis. In some special cases, closed-form solutions are available, which involve elliptic integrals and functions. In this article, an alternative method is presented based on the discretization of the deformed beam into circular-arc segments. The method is fast and simple to implement, and therefore suits well for the design and optimization of compliant kinematics.
