OPTIMAL CAPACITY-EXPANSION PLANNING IN MULTIAQUIFER SYSTEMS

BASAGAOGLU, H
Yazıcıgil, Hasan
Three models were developed and tested for the optimal capacity expansion planning in a hypothetical multiaquifer system. The response of the system was included in the models using response matrices. All models are 0/1 mixed-integer programming models and enable the determination of minimum capital investment and operation costs of well fields and associated pipeline facilities while satisfying a set of system constraints. The performances of the models are compared in terms of computational requirements and approximation to pumpage costs under three water-demand schedules. Multiobjective analyses were conducted to develop trade-off curves relating pumpage to drawdown. The sensitivity of the capacity expansion policies to variations in demand requirements, interest rates, and system parameters are analyzed. The first model produces minimum total drawdowns and requires lesser computation time while the remaining two models yield minimum total costs but require more computation time. The variations in demand requirements, interest rates and system parameters causes variations in selection of the potential well fields, their completion time, resulting total costs and minimum total drawdowns.

Comparison of Intelligent Classification Techniques by Practicing a Specific Technology Audit
Berkol, A.; Kara, G.; Turk, A. (2016-09-08)
Technology audit activities arc carried out for assessment of firms' technological requirements, capacity or management capability. The aim of these assessments is to define the weaknesses of firms and develop actions in order to improve firms' technological capacity and/or technology management capability. Generally these activities are implemented with survey questionnaires. These questionnaires can be filled by managers of firms or can be implemented as an interview by independent experts. However, evalu...
Part-mix allocation between automated and conventional manufacturing
KAYALlGIL, M. SINAN (Informa UK Limited, 1990-10)
The overall part-mix of a production system is allocated optimally between the existing conventional facilities and planned automated system to be acquired. Approximate mean value analysis (MVA) is utilized to evaluate performance of the automated system under trial part-mix allocations. Cost of processing and WIPs are taken as the sources of operational costs. Cost minimizing route allocations when alternatives exist are handled by a search procedure.
A Lagrangean relaxation based approach for the capacity allocation problem in flexible manufacturing systems
ÖZPEYNİRCİ, SELİN; Azizoğlu, Meral (Informa UK Limited, 2010-05-01)
This study considers the operation assignment and capacity allocation problem in flexible manufacturing systems. A set of operations is selected to be processed and assigned to the machines together with their required tools. The purchase or usage of the required tools incurs a cost. The machines have scarce time and tool magazine capacities. The objective is to maximize the total weight of the assigned operations minus the total tooling costs. We use Lagrangean relaxation approach to obtain upper and lower...
Capacity allocation problem in flexible manufacturing systems: branch and bound based approaches
ÖZPEYNİRCİ, SELİN; Azizoğlu, Meral (Informa UK Limited, 2009-01-01)
This study considers an operation assignment and capacity allocation problem that arises in flexible manufacturing systems. The machines have limited time and tool magazine capacities and the available tools are limited. Our objective is to maximise total weight of assigned operations. We develop a branch and bound algorithm that finds the optimal solutions and a beam search algorithm that finds high quality solutions in polynomial time.
Shape optimization of helicopter subfloor intersection element under crash loading
Türe, Mustafa Okan; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2017)
The aim of the crashworthiness is maintaining a survivable space for occupants and absorb crash energy as much as possible. The statistics showed that 85% of all rotorcraft accidents can be survivable. Thus, crashworthy design has direct effect on occupants' survival. This thesis analyses a longitudinal beam and lateral frame intersection point on helicopter subloor. Analysis is performed on ABAQUS Dynamic/Explicit solver. Analysis includes high deformation levels, self-contact and nonlinearities. 110 kg ma...
