The purpose of this paper is to formulate the three-dimensional loading problem and to develop an exact algorithm. The three-dimensional loading problem is not only to load as many boxes as possible, but also to ensure load stability. In this Paper, we propose formulation by zero-one integer programming. Further we propose as an algorithm the branch-and-bound enforced by efficient bounding criteria. As an upper bound, we use the solution of the Lagrangean relaxation problem which relaxes constraints of zero-one IP, and as a lower bound, we use a heuristic solution induced by the solution of the Lagrangean relaxation problem. Last, we show computational experiments on convergency of upper and lower bounds.

Nobody has yet been able to determine the optimal solution conclusively whether NP-complete problems are in fact solvable in polynomial time. Gu$\acute{e}$ret et al. tries to obtain the optimal solution using linear programming with $O(m^4)$ time complexity for barge loading problem a kind of bin packing problem that is classified as nondeterministic polynomial time (NP)-complete problem. On the other hand, this paper suggests the loading rule of profit priority rank algorithm with O(m log m) time complexity. This paper decides the profit priority rank firstly. Then, we obtain the initial loading result using the rule of loading the good has profit priority order. Finally, we balance the loading and capability of barge swap the goods of unloading in previously loading in case of under loading. As a result of experiments, this algorithm reduces the $O(m^4)$ of linear programming to O(m log m) time complexity for NP-complete barge loading problem.

This paper surveys the physical properties of the multiwall carbon nanotube (MWNT) and polyurethane composite film for improvement of mechanical properties and electrical characteristics. The modification of MWNT was carried out by acid treatment with nitric and sulphuric acid mixed solution, and then followed by thermal treatment for enhancing MWNT dispersion with polyurethane. This modified MWNT was mixed with polyurethane by changing the loading content of MWNT and dispersion time under the dimethylformamide solution in the ultrasonic wave apparatus. Various physical characteristics of the modified PU/MWNT films were measured and analyzed in terms of the loading content and dispersion time. The maximum absorbance of the PU/MWNT films were observed with the 2wt% loading at dispersion times of 2 and 24 hour, respectively. The minimum electrical volume resistivity of PU/MWNT film was shown at the loading content of 0.5wt% or more irrespective of dispersion treating time. However the optimum condition was assumed to 2wt% loading at dispersion time of 2 hours by assessing the surface profile of the film using video microscope. The breaking stress and strain of the PU/MWNT film decreased with increasing loading content, but no change of physical properties was shown with increasing in dispersion time.

When the freight is loaded into a container loading rate must be considered. There are many studies on loading more freights into limited space. But the problem, which is needed to consider the routing sequence is different. A large size of freights, such as shipbuilding materials, am be rehandled or cannot be possible to unload. In this paper I tried to find the solution for the problem consider routing sequence, whereupon I present the container loading model which consider the routing sequence and loading rate and its solution.

This paper presents analytical solutions for skewed thick plates under transverse loading that have previously been unreported in the literature. The thick plate solution is obtained in a framework of an oblique coordinate system. The governing equation is first derived in the oblique coordinate system, and the solution is obtained using deflection and rotation as partial derivatives of a potential function developed in this research. The solution technique is applied to three illustrative application examples, and the results are compared with numerical solutions in the literature and those derived from the commercial finite element analysis package ANSYS 11. These results are in excellent agreement. The present solution may also be used to model skewed structures such as skewed bridges, to facilitate efficient routine design or evaluation analyses, and to form special elements for finite element analysis. At the same time, the analytical solution developed in this research could be used to develop methods to address post-buckling and dynamic problems.

It is well known that the two-parameter $J-A_2$ solution can well characterize the crack-tip fields and quantify the crack-tip constraint for different flawed geometries in variety of loading conditions. However, this solution fails to do so for bending dominated specimens or geometries at large deformation because of the influence of significant global bending stress on the crack-tip field. To solve this issue, a modified $J-A_2$ solution is developed in this paper by introducing an additional term to address the global bending influence. Using the $J_2$ flow theory of plasticity and within the small-strain framework detailed finite element analyses are carried out for the single edge notched bend (SENB) specimen with a deep crack in A533B steel at different deformation levels ranging from small-scale Yielding to large-scale Yielding conditions. The numerical results of the crack-tip stress field are then compared with those determined from the $J-A_2$ solution and from the modified $J-A_2$ solution at the same level of applied loading Results indicate that the modified $J-A_2$ solution largely improves the $J-A_2$ solution, and match very well with the numerical results in the region of interest at all deformation levels. Therefore, the proposed solution can effectively describe the crack-tip field and the constraint for bending dominated specimens or geometries.

The unique cell wall micropores of pulp fiber can be utilized as loading site in variety of important practical application which could be the basis of new papermaking technologies. One of these includes the manufature of paper containing higher levels of in situ filler precipitated. Hardwood pulp fiber were first impregnated with the solution of sodium carbonate($Na_2CO_3$). The micropores in cell wall of pulp fibers were filled with the liquid salt solution. The second calcium nitrate($Ca(NO_3)_2$) solution formed an insoluble calcium carbonate($CaCO_3$) precipitate within the cell wall micropores by interacting with the first sodium carbonate solution. The effects of chemical concentration and dryness of pulp fibers on the retention of cell wall micropore loaded filler were investigated. The paper properties of cell wall micropore loaded pulp fibers were compared with those of conventionally loaded and lumen loaded pulp fibers. Also the presense of the fillers within the cell wall micropore was observed by SEM. Increasing the chemical concentration to generate the calcium carbonate increased the retention of filler in cell wall micropore loaded pulp fibers. The particle size distribution of precipitated calcium carbonate ranged from $0.1{\mu}m$ to $80{\mu}m$. But, the average particle size of cell wall micropore loaded calcium carbonate was $4{\mu}m$. The paper made from never dried pulp fibers, the cell wall micropores which were filled with calcium carbonate, had better mechanical and optical properties than those of conventionally loaded or lumen loaded pulp fibers.

An analytical solution of the fully coupled system of equations governing the plane strain deformation of a poroelastic medium with anisotropic permeability and compressible fluid and solid constituents is obtained. This solution is used to study the consolidation of a poroelastic clay layer with free permeable surface resting on a rough-rigid permeable or impermeable base. The stresses and the pore pressure are taken as the basic state variables. Displacements are obtained by integrating the coupled constitutive relations. The case of normal surface loading is discussed in detail. The solution is obtained in the Laplace-Fourier domain. Two integrations are required to obtain the solution in the space-time domain which are evaluated numerically for normal strip loading. Consolidation of the clay layer and diffusion of pore pressure is studied for both the bases. It is found that the time settlement is accelerated by the permeability of the base. Initially, the pore pressure is not affected by the permeability of the base, but has a significant effect, as we move towards the bottom of the layer. Also, anisotropy in permeability and compressibilities of constituents of the poroelastic medium have a significant effect on the consolidation of the clay layer.

For the time integration solution of the impulsive dynamic contact problem of high-speed rotating disks formulated by the finite element technique, the velocity and acceleration contact constraints as well as the displacement contact constraint are imposed for the numerical stability without spurious oscillations. The solution of the present technique is checked by the numerical simulation using the concentric high-speed rotating disks with the clearance and impulsive loading. It is shown that the almost steady state solution agrees with the corresponding analytical solution of the elasticity and that the differentiated constraints are crucial for the numerical stability of such high-speed contact problems of the disks under impulsive loading.
