Heuristic branch-and-price for building long term trainee schedules. [PDF]
Branch-and-price is an increasingly important technique for solving large integer programming models. Staff scheduling has been a particularly fruitful area since these problems typically exhibit a decomposable structure.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A long‐lived, five‐cell‐type human neurovascular (PENTA) model recreates vascular disorganization and incomplete repair after traumatic brain injury (TBI). By integrating endothelial, glial, neuronal, and immune components within a 3D scaffold, the platform enables time‐resolved analysis of neurovascular remodeling and provides a human‐relevant system ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Adhesions’ high occurrence rates and high morbidity render them a critical challenge to be addressed. Current prevention methods, such as physical barriers, have many limitations, resulting in inconsistent safety and efficacy. This study demonstrates the potential for sprayable polymeric materials as an adhesion barrier.

FEM Based Preliminary Design Optimization in Case of Large Power Transformers
Applied Sciences, 2020 Since large power transformers are custom-made, and their design process is a labor-intensive task, their design process is split into different parts. In tendering, the price calculation is based on the preliminary design of the transformer.

Reformulation and decomposition of integer programs [PDF]
In this survey we examine ways to reformulate integer and mixed integer programs. Typically, but not exclusively, one reformulates so as to obtain stronger linear programming relaxations, and hence better bounds for use in a branch-and-bound based ...
