Development of a decision support system to select materials for pressure vessels
(2018)
Improvements in technologies applied in material field and continual increase in the number of material types force to develop and use new approaches in material selection. In this paper, a multi-criteria decision support ...
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE CAPABILITY OF ALTERNATIVE MIXED INTEGER PROGRAMMING FORMULATIONS
(2018)
In selecting the best mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation the important issue is to figure out how to evaluate the performance of each candidate formulation in terms of selected criteria. The main objective ...
Hybridizing a fuzzy multi-response Taguchi optimization algorithm with artificial neural networks to solve standard ready-mixed concrete optimization problems
(2016)
In this study, a fuzzy multi-response standard ready-mixed concrete (SRMC) optimization problem is addressed. This problem includes two conflicting quality optimization objectives. One of these objectives is to minimize ...
Optimization of the Factors That are Critical in External Surface Grinding of Roller Followers Using Design of Experiments
(2018)
In this study, it is aimed to experimentally optimize the parameters of the grinding of external surface of the roller followers which are used in internal combustion engines to operate the inlet and exhaust valves. 2k ...
Operating window perspective integrated TOPSIS approach for hybrid electrical automobile selection
(2019)
To reduce vehicle-related environmental pollution, environmental regulations should be taken into account in different levels of sustainable product development process. As a result of the increasingly emitted CO2 and ...
Development of a Spreadsheet DSS for Multi-Response Taguchi Parameter Optimization Problems Using the TOPSIS, VIKOR, and GRA Methods
(2019)
This paper presents a spreadsheet-based decision support system (DSS) for any parameter optimization problem, in the small- and medium-sized enterprises to help the managers to make better decisions. Microsoft Excel is ...
Reducing Uncertainty in a Type J Thermocouple Calibration Process
(2019)
Thermocouples are used in many manufacturing processes in order to read the actual temperature of the product. Calibration of thermocouples is critical wherever they are used. However, the uncertainties must be considered ...
Comparison of Fuzzy and Crisp Versions of an AHP and TOPSIS Model for Nontraditional Manufacturing Process Ranking Decision
(2019)
Nontraditional manufacturing processes (NTMPs) are especially preferred when it is necessary to machine very small and delicate parts, obtain complex shapes or process very hard and high strength materials. New NTMPs are ...
An optimization for milling operation of Kevlar fiber-epoxy composite material using factorial design and goal programming methods
(2019)
Kevlar fiber-epoxy composite material is extensively used in manufacturing areas because of the advantages of composite material's characteristics. It is usually processed by traditional machining methods but the drawbacks ...
Development of an Innovative Product Using Axiomatic Design Methodology
(2020)
In this study, axiomatic design methodology is applied to design an innovative rifle butt. The developed rifle butt model is sized to fit into common rifle types and ANSYS Workbench program is used for its structural ...
