Improvement of constructive heuristics using variable neighbourhood descent for scheduling a flow shop with sequence dependent setup time

This paper deals with the problem of scheduling a flow shop operating in a sequence dependent setup time environment. The objective is to determine the sequence that minimises the makespan. Two efficient neighbourhood search-based heuristics have been developed and tested using 960 problems, and the results obtained reveal their usefulness. The algorithms make use of two existing constructive heuristics. A neighbourhood search known as variable neighbourhood descent is used to improve the two constructive heuristics. Experimentation is carried out on the 96 groups of problems with 10 problem instances in each group. Performance analysis is carried out using the relative performance improvement of each heuristic. The analysis shows a consistently better performance of the neighbourhood-based improvement heuristics. A paired comparison test is used for validating the superiority of the proposed heuristics. The statistical analysis reveals that the performance of the neighbourhood-based heuristics is very much dependent on the initial constructive heuristics used.     

Modeling and solving mixed-model assembly line balancing problem with setups. Part I: A mixed integer linear programming model

This paper is the first one of the two papers entitled “modeling and solving mixed-model assembly line balancing problem with setups”, which has the aim of developing the mathematical programming formulation of the problem and solving it with a hybrid meta-heuristic approach. In this current part, a mixed-integer linear mathematical programming (MILP) model for mixed-model assembly line balancing problem with setups is developed. The proposed MILP model considers some particular features of the real world problems such as parallel workstations, zoning constraints, and sequence dependent setup times between tasks, which is an actual framework in assembly line balancing problems. The main endeavor of Part-I is to formulate the sequence dependent setup times between tasks in type-I mixed-model assembly line balancing problem. The proposed model considers the setups between the tasks of the same model and the setups because of the model switches in any workstation. The capability of our MILP is tested through a set of computational experiments. Part-II tackles the problem with a multiple colony hybrid bees algorithm. A set of computational experiments is also carried out for the proposed approach in Part-II.     

水-异丙醚-对苯二酚液-液-固等温平衡数据的实验测定

用气相色谱仪测定了常压下水-二异丙基醚-对苯二酚在50℃和46℃的两个等温平衡数据.这两个等温截面的特点是:存在单相液体与对苯二酚固体的平衡区域,同时存在液相分层的广阔的两相共存区域.实验表明,等温截面上没有液-液-固三相共存点.实验数据包括对苯二酚的饱和溶解度数据和两液相共存数据.二异丙基醚萃取水中对苯二酚的饱和分配系数仅为0.7～1.3,远小于二异丙基醚萃取水中苯酚的分配系数.结论是:等温下用二异丙基醚萃取水中对苯二酚并不很有效.

Phase Diagram for Liquid Crystalline Polymer/ Polycarbonate Blends

A novel mechanism to form binary polymer blends is through phase separation by spinodal decomposition in the unstable region of the phase diagram. The present work investigates the effects of thermally‐induced phase separation by spinodal decomposition on the morphology development of liquid crystalline polymer/polycarbonate blends. Moreover, a thermodynamic binary phase diagram is obtained using a twin‐screw extruder at various processing melt temperatures. Differential scanning calorimetry and scanning electron microscopy were used to study the miscibility of the blends and the resulting morphology. A thermodynamic binary phase diagram exhibiting a lower critical solution temperature was obtained. The droplet size distribution of the blend was also obtained and discussed in light of the Cahn‐Hilliard theory.     

电网电压不平衡且严重畸变时的软件锁相技术

针对传统软件锁相环（SPLL）在三相电压不平衡且严重畸变条件下不能准确跟踪电网电压的频率和相位的问题。本文提出了一种基于相序解耦（SDR）级联二阶广义积分（SOGI）的新型软件锁相模型,通过SDR和SOGI实现了正负序分离,电压基波提取,以及滤波功能,有效地消除了负序分量、谐波分量对准确获取频率和相位信息的影响。仿真结果表明在三相电压不平衡且严重畸变的条件下,该新型SPLL能够准确地锁定电网电压的频率和相位,从而有效性地验证了新方法的正确性。
