Biosorption of heavy metals from wastewater via agro waste derived biosorbents emphasizing mechanisms kinetics isotherm models and modification strategies

open access: yesDiscover Applied Sciences
Heavy-metal contamination remains a critical environmental issue due to the persistence and toxicity of metals such as Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni, and Mn. Agricultural waste–derived biosorbents have emerged as cost-effective and sustainable alternatives to ...

Extensions of iterative congruences on free iterative algebras

open access: yesJournal of Computer and System Sciences, 1983
An iterative \(\Sigma\)-algebra A is a \(\Sigma\)-algebra with a unique solution for every fixpoint equation of the form \(x=p(x,a)\), with \(a\in A^ k\) and p an n-tuple of polynomial terms in \(\Sigma\) and \((n+k)\) variables. The \(\Sigma\)-algebra \(\bar R_{\Sigma}(Y)\) of total regular trees on \(\Sigma\) and Y is the free iterative algebra ...

Integrated location–inventory planning for slow‐moving demands with waiting time limitations

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper studies a stochastic facility location problem integrated with inventory and transportation decisions (SFLPIT) for supply chains with slow‐moving stock‐keeping units (SKUs). Local stores often avoid maintaining such SKUs, resulting in customer demand being fulfilled directly by a central distribution center (DC), where the ...

Exact and metaheuristic approaches to minimizing makespan in parallel machine scheduling with conflicting jobs

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We address the scheduling conflicting jobs on parallel identical machines problem with makespan minimization, a classical and computationally challenging variant of parallel machine scheduling. We develop and evaluate three distinct solution methodologies: a novel constraint programming (CP) formulation, and two metaheuristics: a multi ...

The strain-dependence of the critical current density in the high-field superconductor Nb(_3)Sn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Measurements of the critical current density (J_c) of Nb(_3)Sn superconducting wires were performed as a function of magnetic field (B ≤ 23 T), temperature (4.2 K ≤ T ≤ 12 K), and axial strain (-1.6% ≤ ɛ ≤ 0.7%).

Park‐and‐multi‐loop with autonomous delivery robots in last‐mile logistics

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper deals with the park‐and‐multi‐loop routing problem, in the context of last‐mile logistics, in which a fleet of traditional vehicles equipped with several autonomous delivery robots leaves from a depot to service a set of customer requests.

Deep reinforcement learning for multi‐restart metaheuristics: an environment design for a hybrid of unbiased exploratory search and covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Multi‐restart metaheuristics can be highly effective for complex optimization problems, yet their performance depends critically on how restarts and algorithmic parameters are selected. This paper introduces a reinforcement learning approach for managing restart‐level decisions and parameter configurations in the UES–CMA‐ES hybrid ...
