    Abstract: Because of flow shop scheduling is one of the most important problems in the area of production management, In this paper, what I have did is that, I have developed a new algorithm for n-jobs m-machine flow shop scheduling problem for special case of n-jobs m-machine flow shop scheduling problem. And also, there is a good self explanatory example t... Show More

    Abstract: We investigate the effects of key parameters of the rock bed system on thermal cooling performance of the system after a fixed time of operation. The method of solving the mathematical model uses a semi-discretization finite difference approximation for discretizing space in solid problem domain. A finite element approximation is used in the fluid ... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, we investigate a diffusion system of two parabolic equations with more general singular coupled boundary fluxes. Within proper conditions, we prove that the finite quenching phenomenon happens to the system. And we also obtain that the quenching is non-simultaneous and the corresponding quenching rate of solutions. This extends the o... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, we discussed the effect of shear stress for Homann and Convergent flows arising in the boundary layer theory with odd decimal numbers of tangential velocity. By this study we have to discuss positive solution, Homann flow, convergent flow, shear stress, tangential velocity etc. From beginning to end of the study, we have compared of ... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, a deterministic Lymphatic Filariasis (LF) model is formulated and analyzed with the aim of assessing the effect of chemoprophylaxis for the exposed individuals and treatment of symptomatic LF infections. Qualitative and quantitative analysis are implemented to determine the basic reproduction number Re necessary for the control of th... Show More
