Joint Optimization of Maintenance and Spare Part InventoryPoliciesZ. Pelin Bayindir, Pinar Bulbul, Ismail Serdar BakalIn this study, we consider maintenance planning and spare part inventoryplanning problem simultaneously. Our main focus is the jointoptimization of preventive replacement and spare part inventory management.We propose an exact dynamic programming algorithm andseveral heuristics for a finite planning horizon situation. In a computationalstudy the heuristics are compared against the optimal solutions.

Disassembly line balancing problem with fixed number of workstations and finite supply
Göksoy, Eda; Azizoğlu, Meral; Department of Industrial Engineering (2010)
In this thesis, we consider a Disassembly Line Balancing Problem (DLBP) with fixed number of workstations. We aim to maximize the total value of the recovered parts. We assume that there is a limited supply for the products to be disassembled. Different components can be obtained by disassembling different units of the product. Our aim is to assign the tasks to the workstations of the disassembly line so as to maximize the total value of the recovered parts. We present several upper and one lower bounding p...
Optimizing scheduling of post-earthquake electric power restoration tasks
Xu, Ningxiong; Guikema, Seth D.; Davidson, Rachel A.; Nozick, Linda K.; Ertuğrul, Zehra; Vaziri, Kabeh (2007-02-01)
This paper presents a stochastic integer program developed to determine how to schedule inspection, damage assessment, and repair tasks so as to optimize the post-earthquake restoration of the electric power system. The objective of the optimization is to minimize the average time each customer is without power, and a genetic algorithm is used to solve it. The effectiveness of the schedules recommended by the optimization are evaluated by running a detailed discrete event simulation model of the restoration...
Synthetic Lubricants Derived from Plastic Waste and their Tribological Performance
Hackler, Ryan A.; Vyavhare, Kimaya; Kennedy, Robert M.; Çelik, Gökhan; Kanbur, Uddhav; Griffin, Philip J.; Sadow, Aaron D.; Zang, Guiyan; Elgowainy, Amgad; Sun, Pingping; Poeppelmeier, Kenneth R.; Erdemir, Ali; Delferro, Massimiliano (2021-01-01)
© 2021 Wiley-VCH GmbHThe energy efficiency, mechanical durability, and environmental compatibility of all moving machine components rely heavily on advanced lubricants for smooth and safe operation. Herein an alternative family of high-quality liquid (HQL) lubricants was derived by the catalytic conversion of pre- and post-consumer polyolefin waste. The plastic-derived lubricants performed comparably to synthetic base oils such as polyalphaolefins (PAOs), both with a wear scar volume (WSV) of 7.5×10−5 mm−3....
Design, implementation and engineering aspects of tcr for industrial svc systems
Mutluer, Halas Bilge; Ermiş, Muammer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008)
Design and implementation of TCR (Thyristor Controlled Reactor) for industrial SVC (Static VAr Compensator) systems require special design. Both power stage and control system design and implementation are thoroughly investigated in this thesis. Engineering aspects of TCR design are emphasized and supported with case studies. As the first case study; a novel, unified and relocatable SVC for open cast lignite mining in Turkey is designed, implemented and commissioned. The second case study is the first 12 pu...
MULTI-OBJECTIVE AERODYNAMIC OPTIMIZATION OF AXIAL TURBINE BLADES USING A NOVEL MULTI-LEVEL GENETIC ALGORITHM
Oeksuz, Oezhan; Akmandor, Ibrahim Sinan (2008-06-13)
In this paper, a new multiploid genetic optimization method handling surrogate models of the CID solutions is presented and applied for multi objective turbine blade aerodynamic optimization problem. A fast, efficient, robust, and automated design method is developed to aerodynamically optimize 3D gas turbine blades. The design objectives are selected as maximizing the adiabatic efficiency and torque so as to reduce the weight, size and cost of the gas turbine engine. A 3-Dimensional steady Reynolds Average...
