This paper presents the study about electricity generation from solar photovoltaic technology based on four different methodologies with some performance indicators, namely performance ratio, system efficiency, fill and ...

Circular economy is a contemporary concept including usage of renewable materials and technologies. The transition to the circular economy creates value through closed-loop systems, reverse logistics, eco-design, product ...

We develop a network-based warehouse model of individual pallet locations and their interactions with appropriate cross aisles in order to evaluate the expected travel distance of a given design. The model is constructive ...

This article examines political leaders' framing strategies during times of public diplomacy crisis. By focusing on the nexus of domestic-international politics, it argues that during public diplomacy crises, policy-makers ...

In this paper, we introduce a novel approach for modeling surface reflection. We focus on using a family of probability distributions called Archimedean copulas as BRDF models. The Archimedean representation has an attractive ...

This paper examines and critiques Heidegger's repudiation of aesthetics in his essay 'The Origin of the Work of Art' and claims that his alternative approach to artworks in the essay must be understood as a theory of ...

Global warming climate change and social problems are the worst human-induced sustainability issues that economies across the globe have witnessed. Water pollution greenhouse effect poor working conditions child labour and ...

In this paper, we investigate the use of a continuous algorithm for the no-idle permutation flowshop scheduling (NIPFS) problem with tardiness criterion. For this purpose, a differential evolution algorithm with variable ...

In this paper, a differential evolution algorithm based on a variable neighborhood search algorithm (DE_VNS) is proposed in order to solve the constrained real-parameter optimization problems. The performance of DE algorithm ...
