In this paper we discuss an application for the location-distribution problem of beer breweries of a company. We develop a mixed integer programming model. We solve the model under a number of different scenarios and present the results. We discuss various phases of the project and explain how we solved some of the encountered difficulties. After the completion of the project the company decided to locate a new brewery at the site we suggested and they intend to implement some other results of the project in the future. They also intend to utilize the developed model and its software for future decisions.

Design of looped water distribution networks using a heuristic approach
Ateş, Halil İbrahim; Merzi, Nuri.; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
This study aims to design pipe diameters of a water distribution network using a heuristic approach algorithm. The heuristic approach algorithm aims to maximize the reliability of the network while minimizing the total cost of the water distribution network, which is a multi-objective optimization problem. In a water distribution network, the resilience index is defined as network reliability (Todini, 2000). The cost of the water distribution network is the total cost of the network pipes. In this heuristic...
ANALYTIC AND ASYMPTOTIC PROPERTIES OF LINNIKS PROBABILITY DENSITIES
HAYFAVI, A; KOTZ, S; OSTROVSKII, IV (1994-11-03)
The analytic and asymptotic properties of the probability density p(alpha) (x) introduced in 1953 by Ju. V. Linnik and defined by the characteristic function 1/(1 + \t\(alpha)), 0 < alpha < 2, are studied. Expansions of p(alpha) (x) into convergent and asymptotic series in terms of log \x\, \x\(k alpha) , \x\(k) (k = 0, 1, 2,...) are obtained. It turns out that the analytic structure of p(alpha) (x) depends substantially on the arithmetical nature of the parameter alpha.
Joint Costs in Electricity and Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructures: The Role of Urban Factors
Şenyel Kürkçüoğlu, Müzeyyen Anıl (2018-04-01)
This paper analyzes the joint cost structure of electricity and natural gas distribution investments. Assessing the joint costs is critical for urban development and public policy regarding competition at the local level. The paper accounts for the urban and geographic factors at the local level, while the previous literature primarily used company-level data with a few or no site-specific variables in joint cost analyses. An empirical analysis of the multi-utility capital costs suggests that the local urba...
Design of a Software for the Construction of Heat Distribution Networks with Concentrated Solar Thermal Integration Based on Pinch and Exergy Analyses
İnce, Murat Ekin; Okutucu Özyurt, Hanife Tuba; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2019)
Searching for a sustainable solution for industry, one of the common strategies is using a Heat Distribution Network (HDN). Pinch Analysis is a common methodology to calculate the pinch point and minimum hot and cold external utilities for a HDN, which then serve as inputs to Pinch Design to build a robust HDN. Pinch Analysis and Design can be supplemented with exergy analysis to identify locations in a HDN with the largest potentials to improve thermodynamic performance. Additionally, Concentrating Solar T...
Optimization of long-term investments of electric distribution systems considering planning metrics
KOC, Mehmet; TOR, Osman Bulent; CEBECI, Mahmut Erkut; Güven, Ali Nezih; GULER, Firat; TASKIN, Hacer; TUNCER, Atiye; OKUL, Ufuk (2017-04-21)
This paper presents a dynamic planning algorithm methodology which optimizes long-term primary electric distribution network investments considering planning metrics. An algorithm which calculates a representative primary network model of distribution grids, whose primary and secondary networks are intricate, is developed. It is aimed to facilitate assessment of primary distribution network investment requirements and thereby defining grid investment candidates effectively. A planning algorithm, which consi...
