The physiological effect of posture on cycling

Creator:

al-Haboubi, Muhammad

Abstract:

The objective of this research was to investigate the physiological effects of body posture on cycling. The familiar positions of bicycle riding have been the touring posture (hands stretched on top handlebar) and the racing posture (hands bent at the elbow, with the back horizontal). However, a relatively new stance...

The effect of warehouse layout on order-picking efficiency

Creator:

Ben-Mahmud, Youssef S.

Abstract:

This paper addresses the order-picking problem in a warehouse and establishes some criteria for the planning, design, and improvement of a warehouse layout to increase the order-picking efficiency. A simulation model has been developed to study the effect of warehouse layout on the order-picking throughput. Three major design elements of...

Development and experimental evaluation of branch-and-bound algorithms for determining optimum static job-shop production schedules

Creator:

Ramalingam, P. Rama, 1941-

Abstract:

Branch-and-Bound algorithms are developed to optimally schedule static single- and multi-stage job-shop productions. The 'corollary' of the study is to experimentally verify the effectiveness of branch-and-bound algorithms to overcome the "curse of dimensionality" due to the combinatorial nature of job-shop scheduling problems. The static scheduling problem contemplated in this dissertation...
