  • Modeling and optimization of radio frequency identification networks for inventory management

    Creator:
    Suriya, Atipong
    Abstract:
    Stock loss and out-of-stocks are outcomes of poorly designed inventory management systems and can lead to significant revenue losses. Inventory management systems (IMS) based on radio frequency identification (RFID) have the potential to minimize these losses if they are properly designed and deployed. However, the placement of RFID readers to...

  • An application of regression tree methodology in freeway travel time estimation using speed as a proxy

    Creator:
    Wang, Lijuan
    Abstract:
    Accurate freeway travel time estimation is of increasing importance for the travelers’ information and route guidance system. A non-parametric statistical methodology known as regression trees is deployed in this research for dynamically and accurately estimating freeway travel times for the I5-I205 loop in the Portland Metro area of Oregon using...

  • Differentiating transportation modes using Bluetooth sensor data

    Creator:
    Bathaee, Nadia
    Abstract:
    State departments of transportation, transportation consultants, and other transportation agencies are always in need of data that can be used to better understand how different modes of transportation use the road and highway systems. A variety of automatic data collection technologies have been used to gather these data including video...

  • Experimental Characterization of a Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Microchannel Solar Thermal Receiver

    Creator:
    L'Estrange, Thomas
    Abstract:
    Characterization of a microchannel solar thermal receiver for supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) is presented. The receiver design is based on conjugate computational fluid dynamics and heat transfer simulations as well as thermo-mechanical stress analysis. Two lab scale receivers with a 2x2 cm² absorber area are fabricated and experimentally characterized -...

  • A Metaheuristic Approach for Facilities Location with Balanced Allocation of Customers

    Creator:
    Nippaya, Dheeraporn
    Abstract:
    Organizations are constantly looking for innovative strategies to face more stringent competitive environments and the ever increasing market globalization. An alternative these organizations can pursue to respond to these challenges is to optimize their supply chain network (SCN). Important considerations when optimizing a SCN involve determining locations for plants and...
