On the distribution of throughput of transfer lines
Ankara : Department of Industrial Engineering and the Institute of Engineering and Sciences of Bilkent University, 1998.Thesis (Master's) -- Bilkent University, 1998.Includes bibliographical references leaves 86-107A transfer line corresponds to a manufacturing system consisting of a number
of work stations in series integrated into one system by a common transfer
mechanism and a control system. There is a vast literature on the transfer
lines. However, little has been done on the transient analysis of these systems
by making use of the higher order moments of their performance measures
due to the difficulty in determining the evolution of the stochastic processes
under consideration. This thesis examines the transient behavior of relatively
short transfer lines and derives the distribution of the performance measures
of interest. The proposed method based on the analytical derivation of the
distribution of throughput is also applied to the systems with two-part types.
An experiment is designed in order to compare the results of this study with the
state-space representations and the simulation. They are also interpreted from
the point of view of the line behavior and design issue. Furthermore, extensions
are briefly discussed and directions for future research are suggested.Deler, BaharM.S
Automated Deduction – CADE 28
This open access book constitutes the proceeding of the 28th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE 28, held virtually in July 2021. The 29 full papers and 7 system descriptions presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. CADE is the major forum for the presentation of research in all aspects of automated deduction, including foundations, applications, implementations, and practical experience. The papers are organized in the following topics: Logical foundations; theory and principles; implementation and application; ATP and AI; and system descriptions
