Quenched and Tempered (Q&T) steels are widely used in the construction of military vehicles due to its high strength to weight ratio and high hardness.These steels are prone to hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) in the heat affected zone (HAZ) after welding.The use of austenitic stainless steel (ASS) consumables to weld the above steel was the only av

The bug location process aims to identify source code artifacts associated with reported bugs.Manual bug location is burdensome for programmers who must reproduce and analyze the bug to identify the defective artifact and perform necessary maintenance.Bug locating techniques classify and identify project-specific source code artifacts, narrowing th

Order picking is a critical and labour-intensive warehouse management operation that involves removing items from storage locations to fulfil customer orders.This paper analyses a new order-picking problem based on the real case of a Canadian shoe manufacturer characterised by a warehouse with random storage, where different product types can be as

Abstract The species of Trichomycterus (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae) are small catfish distributed throughout South and Central America, from Patagonia to Costa Rica, at elevations ranging from sea level to over 4,000 m.In Bolivia, 17 species have been recorded, but information about the status of their Baby Wash populations and their relationsh

Eliminating deadlocks and reserving maximal permissiveness together is an important and hot issue for all kinds of flexible manufacturing systems.Many experts are making much effort to obtain optimal control algorithms.However, most researchers cannot obtain the real optimal controllers even though their policy is maximally permissive, especially f
