Critical analysis of the graphical determination of hansen's solubility parameters for lightly crosslinked polymers
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1996-12-19)
The most widely accepted method for determining Hansen's three-dimensional solubility parameters (3DSP) for crosslinked polymers entails graphically estimating the center of a spherical region in 3DSP-coordinate space whose ...
A microcomputer based decision support tool for assigning dock doors in freight yards
(Elsevier, 1990)
This paper addresses issues at the shipping/receiving dock of a shipping company, where trucks come in from venders, get their shipments unloaded and reloaded onto trucks going to the customers. The assignment of dock doors ...
Feedback stabilization of control systems described by a class of nonlinear differential-algebraic equations
(Elsevier, 1990-07)
A theoretical framework for the stabilization of control systems defined by a class of nonlinear differential-algebraic equations is established. Assumptions are stated which guarantee that the nonlinear differential-algebaric ...
Load planning for shipments of low density products
(Elsevier, 1990-01-25)
This paper presents a complex computer-based heuristic procedure for sizing customer orders and developing three dimensional load diagrams for rail and truck shipment of low density products. This heuristic procedure was ...
Annealing effects of polymers and their underlying molecular mechanisms
(Elsevier, 1976-04)
This paper indicates that changes in chain mobility, heat capacity, WAXS crystallinity, SAXS long period, SAXS peak intensity, specific volume and morphology as a function of increasing temperature, occur in three fairly ...
Methane to methanol in supercritical water
(Elsevier, 1994-06)
We examined the feasibility of producing methanol from the partial oxidation of methane in near-critical and supercritical water. Oxygen was always the limiting reactant. The parameter space investigated experimentally ...
Adding value through human resources: Reorienting human resource measurement to drive business performance
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997)
Building upon the balanced scorecard framework, this article addresses three central issues of human resource (HR) measurement: (1) Do HR practices impact business results? (2) How can HR practices add value to business ...
A survey of solution techniques for the partially observed Markov decision process
(Baltzer Science Publishers, Baarn/Kluwer Academic Publishers; J.C. Baltzer AG, Scientific Publishing Company ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1991-12)
We survey several computational procedures for the partially observed Markov decision process (POMDP) that have been developed since the Monahan survey was published in 1982. The POMDP generalizes the standard, completely ...
