In this study, we consider the hub location problem of PTT, first realized by Cetiner (2003), and propose the evaluation of multiple decision criteria while locating hubs. Since the mathematical model for the problem is too large to be solved, we utilize heuristic methods in the solution procedure. While doing this, we first test two algorithms, NSGA-II and SPEA2, on different hub location problems and use the algorithm with better performance while solving the PTT problem.

Undesirable and semi-desirable facility location problems Nadirler, Deniz; Karasakal, Esra; Department of Industrial Engineering (2004) In this thesis, single undesirable and semi-desirable facility location problems are analyzed in a continuous planar region considering the interaction between the facility and the existing demand points. In both problems, the distance between the facility and the demand points is measured with the rectilinear metric. The aim in the first part where the location of a pure undesirable facility is considered, is to maximize the distance of the facility from the closest demand point. In the second part, where ...
NORMAL SOLVABILITY OF ELLIPTIC BOUNDARY-VALUE-PROBLEMS ON ASYMPTOTICALLY FLAT MANIFOLDS ERKIP, AK; SCHROHE, E (Elsevier BV, 1992-10-01) Normal solvability is shown for a class of boundary value problems on Riemannian manifolds with noncompact boundary using a concept of weighted pseudodifferential operators and weighted Sobolev spaces together with Lopatinski-Shapiro type boundary conditions. An essential step is to show that the standard normal derivative defined in terms of the Riemannian metric is in fact a weighted pseudodifferential operator of the considered class provided the metric is compatible with the symbols.
AN OPTIMAL-CONTROL PROBLEM WITH NONLINEAR ELLIPTIC STATE-EQUATIONS Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (Elsevier BV, 1992-02-01) In this article some of the results for optimal control of linear systems have been generalized to a nonlinear case. This is achieved by employing standard techniques of the nonlinear theory. After demonstrating the existence of optimal controls, finite element method is used to discretize the problem. The resulting finite dimensional problem is solved by a special algorithm. The theoretical discussions are completed by proving that approximate solutions are reduced to exact solutions as the element size te...
Optimal air defense strategies for naval task group Karasakal, Orhan; Özdemirel, Nur Evin; Department of Industrial Engineering (2004) We develop solution methods for the air defense problem of a naval task group in this dissertation. We consider two interdependent problems. The first problem is the optimal allocation of a set of defensive missile systems of a naval task group to a set of attacking air targets. We call this problem the Missile Allocation Problem (MAP). The second problem called the Sector Allocation Problem (SAP) is the determination of a robust air defense formation for a naval task group by locating ships in predefined s...
Basis in nuclear Frechet spaces Erkurşun, Nazife; Nurlu, Mehmet Zafer; Department of Mathematics (2006) Existence of basis in locally convex space has been an important problem in functional analysis for more than 40 years. In this thesis the conditions for the existence of basis are examined. These thesis consist of three parts. The first part is about the exterior interpolative conditions. The second part deals with the inner interpolative conditions on nuclear frechet space. These are sufficient conditions on existence of basis. In the last part, it is shown that for a regular nuclear Köthe space the inner...
