Aintshop Production Line Optimization Using Response Surface Methodology
(2007)This paper deals with the problem of determining the optimum number of workstations to be used in parallel and workers at some stations using simulation optimization approach in a paint shop line of an automotive factory ... -
A hybrid ant colony optimization approach for the design of reliable networks
(2007)This paper presents a new solution approach, which is a hybridization of ant colony optimization (ACO) and simulated annealing (SA), called (h_ACO) to design of communication networks. The design problem is to find the ... -
An International Facility Design Project
(2008)This paper describes an international facilities design project for Manufacturing and Industrial Engineering students. American and Turkish engineering students collaborated to create and implement the re-design of a Turkish ... -
A Hybrid Simulated Annealing For A Multi-Objective Stochastic Assembly Line Balancing Problem
(2008)Asssembly line balancing is the problem of assigning tasks to the workstations, while optimizing one or more objectives without violating restrictions imposed on the line. In practice, task times may be random due to the ... -
A Tabu Search Algorithm for the Training of Neural Networks
(2009)The most widely used training algorithm of neural networks (NNs) is back propagation ( BP), a gradient-based technique that requires significant computational effort. Metaheuristic search techniques such as genetic algorithms, ... -
A Local Search Heuristic with Self-tuning Parameter for Permutation Flow-Shop Scheduling Problem
(2009)In this paper, a new local search metaheuristic is proposed for the permutation flow-shop scheduling problem. In general, metaheuristics are widely used to solve this problem due to its NP-completeness. Although these ... -
A cross entropy approach to design of reliable networks
(2009)One of the most important parameters determining the performance of communication networks is network reliability. The network reliability strongly depends on not only topological layout of the communication networks but ... -
A General Neural Network Model for Estimating Telecommunications Network Reliability
(2009)This paper puts forth a new encoding method for using neural network models to estimate the reliability of telecommunications networks with identical link reliabilities. Neural estimation is computationally speedy, and can ... -
A Self-adaptive Local Search Algorithm for the Classical Vehicle Routing Problem
(2011)The purpose of this study is introduction of a local search heuristic free from parameter tuning to solve classical vehicle routing problem (VRP). The VRP can be described as the problem of designing optimal delivery of ... -
Regular and conformal regular cores for static and rotating solutions
(2014)Using a new metric for generating rotating solutions, we derive in a general fashion the solution of an imperfect fluid and that of its conformal homolog. We discuss the conditions that the stress-energy tensors and invariant ... -
Turkish foreign policy after the 'Arab Spring': from agenda-setter state to agenda-entrepreneur state
(2014)This article explores Turkey's changing foreign policy approach towards the Middle East after the spread of the Arab upheavals to Syria. Instead of preserving the status quo, Ankara has turned to a revisionist state that ... -
An integrated simulation model for analysing electricity and gas systems
(2014)This paper aims at analysing the impacts of interdependencies between electricity and natural gas systems in terms of security of energy supply. When analysing both systems several interdependencies can be observed, however, ... -
The Effect of Instructional Techniques on Critical Thinking and Critical Thinking Dispositions in Online Discussion
(2014)The aim of this research study was to explore the effect of instructional techniques on critical thinking and critical thinking dispositions in online discussion, based on triangulation design. Six Thinking Hats, Brainstorming, ... -
Silhouette Extraction from Street View Images
(2014)This study addresses the issue of silhouette extraction of a street, and proposes two novel approaches to overcome this problem. The first, namely hybrid stitching considers the silhouette extraction as an image stitching ... -
A Comparative Holistic Fuzzy Approach for Evaluation of the Chain Performance of Suppliers
(2014)The competition between the companies in the dynamic market conditions has made the Supply Chain Management (SCM) a more important issue. The companies which have organized their supply chain effectively have obtained more ... -
Geometrothermodynamics: comments, criticisms, and support
(2014)We write explicitly the Euler identity and the Gibbs-Duhem relation for thermodynamic potentials that are not homogeneous first-order functions of their natural extensive variables. We apply the rules to the theory of ... -
Are there any differences between age groups regarding colorectal surgery in elderly patients?
(2014)Background: Surgical procedures with curative or palliative intentions in subjects aged over 70 represent a colorectal surgical challenge due to the issue they raise: Benefits versus increased morbidity. In this study, we ... -
A study of middle grade students' performances in mathematical pattern tasks according to their grade level and pattern presentation context
(2014)The aim of the study is to investigate the Turkish middle grade students' performances in mathematical pattern tasks. It also aimed at revealing the differences in students' performances in terms of their grade level and ...
