Concrete beams are commonly used in construction projects to provide structural support. Reinforcing these beams with steel and Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) can increase their strength and durability. Steel reinforcement is a traditional method used for decades, while GFRP is a newer...

The future use of electric vehicles in the southern regions of the world could face several problematics related to high temperature, mostly when charging at high power. This paper proposes a new external cooling solution for cooling EV batteries pack at higher temperature conditions especially...

This paper proposes a novel two-phase algorithm for a centralised production planning problem that covers both long-term and mid-term planning simultaneously. Mid-term decisions (first phase) include determining the amount of new inputs and outputs of units in the next production period and...
