A (2+epsilon)-Approximation Algorithm for Preemptive Weighted Flow Time on a Single Machine

Lars Rohwedder

Weighted flow time is a fundamental and very well-studied objective function in scheduling. In this paper, we study the setting of a single machine with preemptions. ...

The electric autonomous dial-a-ride problem

Claudia Bongiovanni

This thesis develops mathematical programming frameworks to operate electric autonomous vehicles in the context of ride-sharing services. The introduced problem is a novel variant of the Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP), denoted by the electric Autonomous Dial-a ...

Device for measuring a force exerted on an object

Simon Nessim Henein, Charles Baur, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan, Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty

The present invention relates to a device for measuring a contact force exerted by an object on a probe comprising a lever and said probe for contacting the object. The lever is pivotably coupled to a body by coupling means. The device comprising a fixed f ...

A Novel Approach to Modeling Enterprise Services Leveraging Object Cloning and Multilevel Classification

Alain Wegmann, Lam Son Lê

Object-oriented modeling is concerned with capturing common properties of objects. The dominant thinking in this realm is to classify objects that share certain properties into what is called a class, which in turn enables us to instantiate additional obje ...

The electric autonomous dial-a-ride problem

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Claudia Bongiovanni, Mor Kaspi

In the Dial-a-Ride-Problem (DARP) a fleet of vehicles provides shared-ride services to users specifying their origin, destination, and preferred arrival time. Typically, the problem consists of finding minimum cost routes, satisfying operational constraint ...

Low-rank tensor methods for large Markov chains and forward feature selection methods

Francisco Santos Paredes Quartin de Macedo

In the first part of this thesis, we present and compare several approaches for the determination of the steady-state of large-scale Markov chains with an underlying low-rank tensor structure. Such structure is, in our context of interest, associated with ...

A Two Phase Heuristic Approach For The Dynamic Electric Autonomous Dial-a-Ride Problem

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Claudia Bongiovanni, Mor Kaspi

In the Dial-a-Ride-Problem (DARP) a fleet of vehicles provide shared-ride services to users specifying their origin, destination, and preferred arrival time. In the dynamic version of the DARP, some trips are booked in advance while others come in real-tim ...

Mind The Gap : Tip Leakage Vortex Dynamics and Cavitation in Axial Turbines

Matthieu Dreyer

The tip leakage vortex (TLV), which develops in the clearance between the blade tip and the casing of axial turbomachines, appears in many industrial applications, such as air transportation, space rockets and hydraulic machines. In the latter, cavitation ...
