Sainfoin stand termination: Variable herbicide efficacy in field conditions
Abstract Effective termination of perennial forage legumes is a critical step in a crop rotation system, particularly in arid and semi‐arid regions where soil moisture conservation and timely establishment of subsequent crops are essential. Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.), a deep‐rooted, drought‐tolerant forage legume gaining renewed interest ...

Schedule Optimization in a Smart Microgrid Considering Demand Response Constraints
Smart microgrids (SMGs) may face energy rationing due to unavailability of energy resources. Demand response (DR) in SMGs is useful not only in emergencies, since load cuts might be planned with a reduction in consumption but also in normal operation ...

Gene Silencing Genetic Algorithm for 0/1 Knapsack with Object Preferences [PDF]
Genetic Algorithms are efficient search and optimization techniques inspired by natural evolution. To show the difficulties in solving constrained optimization problems through GA, the 0/1 knapsack problem with user specific object preferences has been ...

An empirical study of tabu search for the mokp [PDF]
International audienceThree Tabu Search algorithms are presented for the 0-1 multi-dimensional multi-objective knapsack problem. Experiments are carried out to study the role of different diversification techniques for TS and to compare TS with well ...

Soybean and tobacco response to sublethal rates of herbicides used along roadsides
Abstract Herbicides are one of the primary tools for vegetation management along roadsides. However, the drift of particles and vapors from herbicide applications along roadsides can cause damage and yield loss in adjacent sensitive crops. The objective of this research was to investigate the response of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and tobacco ...

Dantzig-Wolfe and Lagrangian decompositions in integer linear programming
International audienceWe propose in this paper a new Dantzig-Wolfe master model based on Lagrangian decomposition. We establish the relationship with classical Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition master problem and propose an alternative proof of the dominance ...

Scenario‐Based Platoon Lane Network Design
ABSTRACT A truck platoon is a set of trucks that drive behind one another at short headways to save fuel, reduce emissions, and improve traffic throughput. Despite the potential benefits of platooning, road operators have raised concerns about the impact of platoons on surrounding traffic.

Seeing the Hazard: Effects of Visual Communication in Flood Warning Messages
ABSTRACT Early warning messages (EWMs) are a crisis communication tool to prepare citizens to take action, save lives, and prevent damage in case of an approaching flood. They should be simple, but at the same time sufficient, inform recipients about the magnitude, timing, and possible impacts, and offer recommendations on actions to take.

Optimal Foraging Algorithm Based on Differential Evolution
The optimal foraging algorithm (OFA) was proposed by summarizing the rules of the animal foraging behavior in a group. Therefore OFA also has the defects of the swarm intelligence algorithm, such as easy to trap into local optimum and low convergence ...
