The Sequence-dependent Cost-oriented Assembly Line Balancing (SDCALB) problem is a challenging optimization problem that belongs to the NP-hard class. To solve this problem, a position based mathematical model is formulated and then the Pure Bender's Decomposition (PBD) algorithm is proposed....

There are restricted studies of non-single-value health exposure models regarding fluoride intake in Iran. As such, we adopted a probability-based approach for higher accuracy along with sensitivity analysis to reduce the ambiguity of the health risk model of Fars and Bushehr Provinces. Fluoride...

Nutrient cycling is a key ecological process and governs by the litter decomposition. Litter decomposition process and nutrient-releasing pattern are affected by litter quality as well as climatic factors. Nutrients and stoichiometry are important for plant growth and species dynamics. However,...

Climate change poses an unprecedented challenge to the world economy and the global financial system. This paper sets out to understand and quantify the impact of climate mitigation, with a focus on climate-related news, which represents an important information source that investors use to...
