An integrated simulation model for analysing electricity and gas systems
(2014)
This paper aims at analysing the impacts of interdependencies between electricity and natural gas systems in terms of security of energy supply. When analysing both systems several interdependencies can be observed, however, ...
Traveling Repairmen Problem: A Biogeography-Based Optimization
(2022)
Traveling Repairman Problem (TRP), which is also known by names cumulative traveling salesman problem, the deliveryman problem and the minimum latency problem, is a special variant of Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). In ...
The Efficiency of Variance Reduction in Manufacturing and Service Systems: The Comparison of the Control Variates and Stratified Sampling
(2009)
There has been a great interest in the use of variance reduction techniques (VRTs) in simulation output analysis for the purpose of improving accuracy when the performance measurements of complex production and service ...
The Location-Routing Problem with Simultaneous Pickup and Delivery: Formulations and A Heuristic Approach
(2012)
In this paper, we consider a variant of the Location-Routing Problem (LRP), namely the LRP with simultaneous pickup and delivery (LRPSPD). The LRPSPD seeks to minimize total cost by simultaneously locating the depots and ...
Women in Engineering in Turkey - A Large Scale Quantitative and Qualitative Examination
(2010)
The underrepresentation of women in engineering is well known and unresolved. However, Turkey has witnessed a shift in trend from virtually no female participation in engineering to across-the-board proportions that dominate ...
Simulation Optimization of A Multi-Stage Multi-Product Paint Shop Line with Response Surface Methodology
(2014)
Recently, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) has attracted a growing interest, along with other simulation optimization (SO) techniques, for non-parametric modeling and robust optimization of systems. In the optimization ...
Topsis Based Taguchi Method for Multi-Response Simulation Optimization of Flexible Manufacturing System
(2014)
This study presents a simulation design and analysis case study of a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) considering a multi-response simulation optimization using TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to ...
Redesign Of PCB Production Lıine With Simulation And Taguchi Design
(2009)
This paper presents the problem of determining the optimum condition of printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing process in an electronic company in Ankara,. Turkey. In the optimization stage of the study Taguchi method ...
Fractional Universal Kriging Metamodel
(2022)
In this study, a Kriging-based metamodel is proposed that can be used instead of the simulation model for complex problems where data generation with a simulation model may be costly. In this new model structure, which is ...
