An Application of Branch and Cut to Open Pit Mine Scheduling

The economic viability of the modern day mine is highly dependent upon careful planning and management. Declining trends in average ore grades, increasing mining costs and environmental considerations will ensure that this situation will remain in the foreseeable future. The operation and management of a large open pit mine having a life of several years is an enormous and complex task. Though a number of optimization techniques have been successfully applied to resolve some important problems, the problem of determining an optimal production schedule over the life of the deposit is still very much unresolved. In this paper we will critically examine the techniques that are being used in the mining industry for production scheduling indicating their limitations. In addition, we present a mixed integer linear programming model for the scheduling problems along with a Branch and Cut solution strategy. Computational results for practical sized problems are discussed.     

Maximin share and minimax envy in fair-division problems

For fair-division or cake-cutting problems with value functions which are normalized positive measures (i.e., the values are probability measures) maximin-share and minimax-envy inequalities are derived for both continuous and discrete measures. The tools used include classical and recent basic convexity results, as well as ad hoc constructions. Examples are given to show that the envy-minimizing criterion is not Pareto optimal, even if the values are mutually absolutely continuous. In the discrete measure case, sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the existence of envy-free partitions.

Determination of the spin-spin centrifugal distortion parameters for deuterated selenoformaldehyde in its first excited triplet state

Recently-formulated centrifugal distortion corrections to the spin-spin Hamiltonian have been used to analyse the first excited triplet state (ã³A₂) of deuterated selenoformaldehyde. By including six spin-spin centrifugal distortion parameters, it is possible to account for the energy levels of this state using a single set of three rotational constants, A, B, and C, where previously nine spin-dependent parameters were required.

Pregelation Behaviour of Coagulation Processes with the Constant-Reaction-Number Kernel

We propose an irreversible binary coagulation model with a constant-reaction-number kernel, in which, among all the possible binary coagulation reactions, only p reactions are permitted to take place at every time. By means of the generalized rate equation we investigate the kinetic behaviour of the system with the reaction rate kernel K（i;j） = （ij）^w （0 ≤w〈1/2）, at which an i-mer and a j-mer coagulate together to form a large one. It is found that for such a system there always exists a gelation transition at a finte time to, which is in contrast to the ordinary binary coagulation with the same rate kernel. Moreover, the pre-gelation behaviour of the cluster size distribution near the gelation point falls in a scaling regime and the typical cluster size grows as （to - t）-1/（1-2w）. On the other hand, our model can also provide some predictions for the evolution of the cluster distribution in multicomponent complex networks.     

g-稳定性与 R~n-稳定性的等价性

一、引言近年来,相空间理论得到了深入的发展.人们找到了一些便于应用的具体的相空间如 C_g,C_h 等,其中 C_g 是研究较多的一个空间.研究表明 C_g 具有优良的性质,但 C_g 如不附加进一步条件的话,并不是 Hale-Kato 意义下的允许空间,故[1,2]的稳定性的等价性定理并不能直接应用于 C_g.鉴于 C_g 在理论和应用上的明显的重要性,本文研究了在 C_g 和 R~n 中泛函微分方程解的稳定性的等价性问题.研究表明 C_g 在这方面也具有良好的特性.作为应用,本文还研究了 Volterra 积分微分方程周期解的存在唯一性及稳定性问题,得到了新的有趣的结果.
