    Skin is the biggest organ in the human body and works to separate the inner body part from outer environment. In the skin, there are sebaceous glands found inside the pores of the skin. They are at all over the body except for the palms of the hands and the feet soles. There are more sebaceous glands on the face and scalp than elsewhere. Sebaceous gland secretes an oily protective skin surface, sebum, which is against pathogens and also help to slow down the skin ageing process [1]. They can help to maintain the moisture of the skin. However, the sebaceous glands become overactive sometimes, thus, producing too much sebum and the pores can get clogged together with dead skin [2][3]. This will results in having blackheads along with other factors. Blackhead is one of an acne vulgaris type [4]. It is a small dark spots on the skin that sometimes hard to be seen under a naked eye. If the clogged pores infect the glands, the accumulated sebum may form a sac and slowly increase in size. Lack of sebum production can also provide unsatisfied result that could cause dry skin, which makes the skin, looks rough and dull

    In this paper, we aim to introduce a new variation of the flow rack automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) using a single machine for storage and retrieval operations instead of two machines. Also, analytical expressions are derived for expected single and dual cycle times of the storage and retrieval machine. For that, randomized storage assignment, and Tchebychev travel are assumed. Two dwell point positions are investigated and compared to determine the best one. Finally an experimental validation using simulation is conducted to verify the quality of the developed

    A Mobile rack Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (MAS/ RS) are picker-to-stock retrieval model which are a variation of the multi aisles AS/RS. This mobile storage system is composed of racks moving laterally on rails so that one can open an aisle between any two adjacent racks, the input/output system, the storage and retrieval (S/R) machine and the computer management system or the control system. Evaluating an AS/RS could be done using several performance indicators, the two most important ones are: The utilization rate of the S/R machine and the average time necessary to serve storage or retrieval requests (the travel time). The S/R machine could operate either in single command or in dual command. In a single command, the S/R machine executes either a storage or retrieval operation by cycle. The time necessary to execute a single command is said single cycle time. While in a dual command, the S/R machine executes a storage operation followed by a retrieval operation in the same cycle. The time needed to execute a dual command is said dual cycle time. In this paper our interest is concerned with the mathematical modeling of single-command operations in a Mobile rack (AS/RS) system. We developed a closed form analytical expression allowing an approximate calculation of the travel time of Mobile Racks-AS/RS. This expression was compared with an exact discrete expression developed earlier by one of the authors. The models developed in this work are used by Kouloughli et al to determine optimal dimensions of the mobile rack AS/RS that minimize expected travel times

    Colloque avec actes et comité de lecture. internationale.International audience"The job-shop scheduling problem is an NP-hard optimization problem. It is generally solved using either predictive methods such as discrete optimization which try to find a solution that fits constraints and that optimizes one or more objectives or usingreactive methods such real-time control methods which try to build incrementally in real-time a solution of the problem. Predictive-reactive methods try to combine both advantages of predictive and reactive methods (i.e., good performances andreactivity). The group sequencing method is one of the most studied predictive-reactive methods. The goal of this method is to have a sequential flexibility during the execution of the schedule and to guarantee a minimal quality corresponding to theworst-case.The best-case quality has also been successfully addressed by [Pinot2008] using a branch and bound procedure. It has been established for every regular objective. In this paper we propose two new branching processes to compute the best-case for the makespan which is one of the most studied regular objective. The experiments made on very well-known instances of the job-shop problem show the benefits of these new branching procedures.}

    This study examines the effect of current asset tunneling on firm performance from the emerging market perspective. Although tunneling activities is a common practices by businesses especially in Indonesia, there exist obstacles in the measurement of tunneling activity because it is difficult to proof the existence of such practices. In this study, we measure tunneling by using accounts receivables and develop tunneling detection criteria. In addition, this study examines the effect of tunneling on firm performance and market reaction during the announcement of the related party transaction. The study finds that from the perspective of the being-tunneled companies, receivables to related parties negatively affect the company's profit margin. Companies which announce related party transaction indicating tunneling obtain negative abnormal return during the announcement of the related party transaction.Keywords: current asset tunneling, related party transaction, firm performance, emerging market---Penelitian ini menguji pengaruh tunneling aset lancar pada kinerja Perusahaan pada perspektif negara berkembang. Meskipun aktivitas tunneling terjadi dalam praktik bisnis di Indonesia, tetapi terdapat kesulitan untuk mengukurnya karena aktivitas tunneling sulit dibuktikan. Penelitian ini membangun kriteria deteksi tunneling. Penelitian ini juga menguji pengaruh tunneling pada kinerja Perusahaan dan reaksi pasar modal pada saat pengumuman transaksi pihak berelasi. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa dari perspektif Perusahaan yang di-tunnel, piutang kepada pihak berelasi berpengaruh negatif terhadap kinerja Perusahaan. Perusahaan yang mengumumkan transaksi pihak berelasi yang terindikasi tunneling mendapatkan return negatif

    Experimental Validation of Travel Time Models for Shuttle-based Automated Storage and Retrieval System

    Get PDF
    In this paper, we aim to validate travel time models for single and dual command cycle displacements of lifts and shuttles in a shuttle-based automated storage and retrieval system (SBS/RS) by using experimental computer simulation. The models under consideration take into account acceleration and deceleration delays. We use ARENA 12 software for the simulation modeling. By simulation, we emulate the real functioning of the system. Therefore, we assume that the results from the ARENA simulation are equivalent to the onsite experimentation. Simulation results are very close to those obtained by analytical travel time models. This shows the high precision of these models to predict operations of SBS/RS.These models can be used at design or operation phases to calculate throughput of the system, to compare between different topologies of SBS/RS or with other types of AS/RS to help decision makers to choose among different alternatives of automated storage systems
