Abstract
Network design models have wide applications in telecommunications and transportation planning; see, for example, the survey articles by Magnanti and Wong (1984), Minoux (1989), Chapter 16 of the book by Ahuja, Magnanti and Orlin (1993), Section 13 of Ahuja et al. (1995). In particular, [...]Abstract
Argonne National Laboratory has conducted a study to ascertain the relative importance of improved highway materials compared to vehicle energy consumption on US energy consumption. Energy savings through an improved highway infrastructure can occur in at least three ways. First, [...]Abstract
In recent years, significant advancements in computational efficiency have enabled the application of advanced numerical models to solve boundary value problems (BVPs) in geotechnics, including those related to large-displacement problems. However, challenging problems, such as [...]
