Weight distribution considerations in container loading
Article Abstract:
The post-processing of solutions is a feasible approach to balancing the weight distribution in a particular container. The heuristic approach that was developed, when evaluated against other existing methodologies, exhibited a capability to produce loading arrangements that combine both equal weight distribution and efficient space use of the cargo. The solution is an approach to container loading that addresses issues such as personnel safety and safe container handling.

A multiperiod approach to the solution of groundwater management problems using an outer approximation method
Article Abstract:
The outer approximation (OA) methodology introduces a new approach to multiperiod design for the solution of groundwater management problems. The most important feature of this new approach is that it maintains all the characteristics of the OA method and the solutions obtained are globally optimal.
