Age Replacement

This paper considers the optimal policy for an economic manufacturing model with stochastic machine breakdown and repair. The expected cost function is formulated and the optimal age replacement-like policy which minimizes it is derived analytically. The detailed properties on the resulting optimal lot size are examined for some special cases. Finally, numerical examples are devoted to show that the effect of corrective maintenance operation in the production process is remarkable.

Ecological Optimization

AbstractBased on an irreversible quantum Carnot heat pump model in which spin-1/2 systems are used as working substance, an exergy-based ecological function and some other important parameters of the model heat pump are derived. Numerical examples are provided to investigate its ecological performance characteristics. The influences of various irreversibility factors on the ecological performance are discussed. Performance comparison and discussion among maximum points of ecological function, heating load, and so on, are conducted. At last, three special cases are discussed.

AbstractIn this paper, we show that certain trigonometric polynomial shearlets which are special cases of directional de la Vallée Poussin-type wavelets are able to detect step discontinuities along boundary curves of periodic characteristic functions. Motivated by recent results for discrete shearlets in two dimensions, we provide lower and upper estimates for the magnitude of the corresponding inner products. In the proof, we use localization properties of trigonometric polynomial shearlets in the time and frequency domain and, among other things, bounds for certain Fresnel integrals. Moreover, we give numerical examples which underline the theoretical results.

Repair Facility

Based on the renewal process theory we develop a decomposition method to analyze the reliability of the repair facility in ann-unit series system with vacations. Using this approach, we study the unavailability and the mean replacement number during(0,t]of the repair facility. The method proposed in this work is novel and concise, which can make us see clearly the structures of the facility indices of a series system with an unreliable repair facility, two convolution relations. Special cases and numerical examples are given to show the validity of our method.

Special Cases

We present the local as well as the semi-local convergence of some iterative methods free of derivatives for Banach space valued operators. These methods contain the secant and the Kurchatov method as special cases. The convergence is based on weak hypotheses specializing to Lipschitz continuous or Holder continuous hypotheses. The results are of theoretical and practical interest. In particular the method is compared favorably ¨ to other methods using concrete numerical examples to solve systems of equations containing a nondifferentiable term.

Family Of Distributions

This paper presents a three-parameter family of distributions which includes the common exponential and the Marshall–Olkin exponential as special cases. This distribution exhibits a monotone failure rate function, which makes it appealing for practitioners interested in reliability, and means it can be included in the catalogue of appropriate non-symmetric distributions to model these issues, such as the gamma and Weibull three-parameter families. Given the lack of symmetry of this kind of distribution, various statistical and reliability properties of this model are examined. Numerical examples based on real data reflect the suitable behaviour of this distribution for modelling purposes.

The Stability

We consider a two-node Jackson network in which the buffer of node 1 is truncated. Our interest is in the limit of the tail decay rate of the queue-length distribution of node 2 when the buffer size of node 1 goes to infinity, provided that the stability condition of the unlimited network is satisfied. We show that there can be three different cases for the limit. This generalizes some recent results obtained for the tandem Jackson network. Special cases and some numerical examples are also presented.

Dynamical Properties

A new conjugate Lorenz-type system is introduced in this paper. The system contains as special cases the conjugate Lorenz system, conjugate Chen system and conjugate Lü system. Chaotic dynamics of the system in the parametric space is numerically and thoroughly investigated. Meanwhile, a set of conditions for possible existence of chaos are derived, which provide some useful guidelines for searching chaos in numerical simulations. Furthermore, some basic dynamical properties such as Lyapunov exponents, bifurcations, routes to chaos, periodic windows, possible chaotic and periodic-window parameter regions and the compound structure of the system are demonstrated with various numerical examples.

Parameters Of Interest

Simple closed-form expressions have been derived to predict fatigue life, damage accumulation, and other fatigue parameters of interest for structural elements with combined sinusoidal (sine) and narrowband Gaussian random stresses. These equations are expressed in common engineering terms. The sine and random only stress situations are special cases of the more general combined sine/random stress situation. They also have application for establishing vibration workmanship screens. Numerical examples are also included.
