A branch-and-price approach for large-scale employee tour scheduling problems

We present a new methodology for solving large-scale employee tour scheduling problems. An integer programming model is proposed where tours are decomposed into shifts and start times. This formulation can model complex shift and start time rules for both continuous and discontinuous scheduling problems. A branch-and-price approach is devised to solve this model efficiently. The methodology was tested on the largest tour scheduling problems found in the open literature. In comparison with an alternative implicit model, our approach showed superior computational performance.

表面张力对固壁旁空泡运动特性影响的理论和实验研究

表面张力是影响空泡脉动及空蚀的一个重要因素.对五种不同表面张力液体中空泡脉动（膨胀和收缩）过程进行了研究,并将实验结果与基于空泡生长和溃灭理论的计算结果进行了对比.实验中,用激光作为测试光源,采用光偏转测试系统研究了不同表面张力液体中空泡泡壁运动规律及泡壁速度的变化.结果表明：表面张力对空泡膨胀过程起抑制作用,故液体表面张力愈大,空泡能达到的最大直径越小;表面张力对空泡的收缩过程则起加速作用,液体表面张力愈大,收缩越迅速,空泡泡壁运动速度越大,其所产生的瞬时溃灭压强越大,空化效果越好. 关键词： 表面张力 空泡 光偏转     

The degree of the E-characteristic polynomial of an even order tensor

The E-characteristic polynomial of an even order supersymmetric tensor is a useful tool in determining the positive definiteness of an even degree multivariate form. In this paper, for an even order tensor, we first establish the formula of its E-characteristic polynomial by using the classical Macaulay formula of resultants, then give an upper bound for the degree of that E-characteristic polynomial. Examples illustrate that this bound is attainable in some low order and dimensional cases.     

Stability of a deflagration front in compressible media

A two-dimensional linear analysis of the planar flame front stability for a compressible fluid is presented. The analysis shows that there are two types of perturbations. The first type, corresponding to waves in incompressible media, has already been studied by Landau. It predicts absolute instability of the flame front. The second type of perturbations is due to fluid compressibility and the dependence on upstream flow parameters of the flame front velocity. Three different regimes for these perturbations are possible: stable, acoustically unstable, and absolutely unstable. The instability results in a pronounced pressure wave generation.A one-dimensional analysis of the interaction of the flame front with flow boundaries is performed. Under some circumstances, this interaction is shown to cause exponential growth of the perturbations.     

Free-space Fresnel diffraction for the approximation of fractional Fourier transform

Fractional Fourier transformation of an object can be approximated by the object's free-space Fresnel diffraction pattern under some restricted conditions and plane wave illumination according to Hua's method. A better approximation is achieved under least-squared conditions developed in this paper. Simulation results verify that our theoretical development works for any fractional order a compared with the previous approach.
