An Inventory Model for Deteriorating Items and Stock-dependent Consumption Rate

An order-level inventory model is developed for deteriorating items with uniform rate of production and stock-dependent demand. Shortages are allowed, and excess demand is backlogged. Results are illustrated with numerical examples.

     

Adaptive local grid refinement algorithms for finite-element collocation

An adaptive grid refinement procedure allows accurate solutions to advection-dominated, time-dependent flows using finite-element collocation. The technique relies on a data structure that is readily amenable to parallel computing. The paper discusses computational aspects of the method.     

Synthesis of cationic molybdenum and cobalt diene complexes from neutral allyl compounds by ligand exchange in a strong protic acid

Conclusions The allyl ligand in neutral molybdenum and cobalt complexes is readily exchanged by dienes in the presence of a strong protic acid with the formation of cationic complexes. This exchange is facilitated by an increase in the basicity of the starting compounds.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1655–1657, July, 1987.     

The Pathwise Numerical Approximation of Stationary Solutions of Semilinear Stochastic Evolution Equations

Under a one-sided dissipative Lipschitz condition on its drift, a stochastic evolution equation with additive noise of the reaction-diffusion type is shown to have a unique stochastic stationary solution which pathwise attracts all other solutions. A similar situation holds for each Galerkin approximation and each implicit Euler scheme applied to these Galerkin approximations. Moreover, the stationary solution of the Euler scheme converges pathwise to that of the Galerkin system as the stepsize tends to zero and the stationary solutions of the Galerkin systems converge pathwise to that of the evolution equation as the dimension increases. The analysis is carried out on random partial and ordinary differential equations obtained from their stochastic counterparts by subtraction of appropriate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stationary solutions.     

A generic view of Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition in mixed integer programming

The Dantzig-Wolfe reformulation principle is presented based on the concept of generating sets. The use of generating sets allows for an easy extension to mixed integer programming. Moreover, it provides a unifying framework for viewing various column generation practices, such as relaxing or tightening the column generation subproblem and introducing stabilization techniques.     

Obstruction à la transversalité de lagrangiens

In this Note, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for Lagrangians in a symplectic vector bundle to be deformed stably into transversal Lagrangians. In the case of three Lagrangians, we show that the associated Grothendieck group can be identified with a Hermitian K-theory group. To cite this article: M. Karoubi, M.L. Lapa de Souza, C. R. Acad.

Morphological and electronic properties of the thin film phase of pentacene investigated by AFM and STM/STS

We investigated the morphological, structural and electronic properties of Pentacene thin films grown by vacuum thermal evaporation on different inert substrates at room temperature. The results of our AFM and STM analysis give an interplanar spacing of 1.54 nm corresponding to the (0 0 1) distance of the so-called “thin film phase”. The STS measurements show an HOMO-LUMO gap of 2.2 eV.     

Analytical investigation into the mechanism of dielectric losses due to interlayer polarization

The theory of dielectric space-charge polarization losses describes well both the model of an inhomogeneous dielectric [1] and the polarization resulting from mosaic blocks of alkali-halide crystals [2]. The Debye frequency dependences ε*(ω) and tan δ(ω) with non-Arrhenius relaxation time are calculated in the first approximation of perturbation theory [3, 4] with the use of a nonlinear system of the Fokker-Planck and Poisson equations for the interlayer polarization with allowance for tunnel transitions of relaxation oscillators. For the Maxwell mechanism of space-charge relaxation, tan δ(ω) also has the Debye form [5]. It should be noted that in studies cited above the electric field was considered uniform, and the nonlinearity of the initial system of equations was not investigated. This paper removes these restrictions and elaborates a theory of relaxation mechanism. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 11, pp. 28–34, November, 2006.
