Above Room Temperature Ferroelectricity in Epitaxially Strained KTaO3

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Through precise epitaxial engineering, the cubic and paraelectric KTaO3${\rm KTaO}_3$ is transformed into a robust ferroelectric. By leveraging lattice‐mismatched substrates to apply controlled epitaxial strain, a stable ferroelectric ground‐state is achieved with a transition temperature as high as 475 K, establishing KTaO3${\rm KTaO}_3$ as a highly ...

Unified tail assignment and maintenance task scheduling: A decision support framework for improved efficiency and stability

open access: yesOperations Research Perspectives
Flight and maintenance scheduling pose conflicting objectives: while maintenance is vital for ensuring aircraft airworthiness, it comes at the cost of taking aircraft out of operation.

The Fleet Size and Mix vehicle Routing Problem with backhauls: Formulation and Set partitioning-based heuristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we present a new variant of the classical Vehicle Routing Problem – the Fleet Size and Mix Vehicle Routing Problem with Backhauls (FSMVRPB). An ILP formulation of the FSMVRPB is presented.

CEMENT TRANSPORTATION LIMITED-FLEET MODELING AND ASSIGNING TO RATED DEMANDS [PDF]

open access: yesTransport Problems, 2017
Transportation is an inseparable part of the supply chain, with a key role in product distribution. This role is highlighted when ratio of “the cost of transportation” to “the value of goods” such as cement is significant. Iran has recently become one of

A Self‐Healing Permanent Magnet Putty for Soft Robot Skins With Force Sensing and Functional Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Permanent magnet putty (PMP) integrates high‐coercivity NdFeB particles with a dynamic polyborosiloxane–Ecoflex matrix, achieving rapid self‐healing (90% mechanical recovery in 10 s) and magnetic recovery within 20 min. With twice the sensitivity of commercial putties, PMP enables precise 5–30 N force detection and discrimination between pressing and ...

Study on Fleet Assignment Problem Model and Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2013
The Fleet Assignment Problem (FAP) of aircraft scheduling in airlines is studied, and the optimization model of FAP is proposed. The objective function of this model is revenue maximization, and it considers comprehensively the difference of scheduled flights and aircraft models in flight areas and mean passenger flows.

Cooperation patterns between fleet owners for transport assignments

open access: yes2015 IEEE Conference on Control Applications (CCA), 2015
We study cooperation patterns between the heavy-duty vehicle fleet owners to reduce their costs, improve their fuel efficiency, and decrease their emissions. We consider a distributed cooperation pattern in which the fleet owners can communicate directly with each other to form alliances.
