This paper deals with the reliability and availability characteristics of three different series system configurations with warm standby components and a repairable service station. The failure time of the primary and warm standby are assumed to be exponentially distributed with parameters ${\lambda}$ and ${\alpha}$ respectively. The repair time distribution of each server is also exponentially distributed with parameter ${\mu}$. The breakdown time and the repair time of the service station are also assumed exponentially distributed with parameters ${\gamma}$ and ${\beta}$ respectively. We derive the reliability dependent on time, availability dependent on time, the mean time to failure, $MTTF_i$, and the steady-state availability $A_i$(${\infty}$) for three configurations and perform comparisons. Comparisons are made for specific values of distribution parameters and of the cost of the components. The three configurations are ranked based on: $MTTF_i$, $A_i$(${\infty}$), and $C_i/B_i$ where $B_i$ is either $MTTF_i$ or $A_i$(${\infty}$).

Most of the models for the vehicle routing problems studied in the literature assumed constant travel times. However, those approaches may give infeasible solutions when traffic congestion causes delays in travel time. To overcome such difficulty, there have been some researches considering the change of the travel time which is called the time dependent vehicle routing problem (TDVRP). TDVRP assumes that the travel time between two locations is not only affected by the distance traveled, but by many other factors including the time of the day. In this paper, we propose a branch-and-price algorithm to solve the TDVRP. The time dependent property of the travel time is dealt with an enumeration scheme with bounding procedures in the column generation procedure identifying a profitable route. The proposed algorithm guarantees the "Non-passing" property to be held in the solutions. The algorithm was tested on problems composed of the Solomon's benchmark instances for 25 and 50 nodes. Computational results are reported.

The undesired situation of development of tribology and its reason is analyzed. The problem comes from insufficient study on the concept system and method system, which can match the name, definition and nature of tribology. The existence of three axioms in tribology is discussed. They are axiom of system dependent, axiom of time dependent and axiom of coupling of behaviors of multi-discipline. A series of lemmas has been deduced from three axioms. It is expected that they can be a foundation to establish the concept system and method system.

This paper considers delay-dependent guaranteed cost control for uncertain time-delay systems with norm-bounded parametric uncertainties. A new delay-dependent condition for the existence of the guaranteed cost control law is presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMI). An algorithm involving convex optimization is proposed to design a controller which guarantees the suboptimal minimum of the guaranteed cost of the closed-loop system for all admissible uncertainties.

We consider a general semiparametric additive risk model that consists of three components. They are parametric, purely and smoothly nonparametric components. In parametric component, time dependent term is known up to proportional constant. In purely nonparametric component, time dependent term is an unknown function, and time dependent term in smoothly nonparametric component is an unknown but smoothly function. As an estimation method of this model, we use the weighted least square estimation by Huffer and McKeague (1991). We provide an illustrative example as well as a simulation study that compares the performance of our method with the ordinary least square method.

This paper focuses on the problem of asymptotic stabilization for time-delay systems. To this end, a memoryless state feedback controller is proposed. Then, based on the Lyapunov method, a delay-dependent stabilization criterion is devised by taking the relationship between the terms in the Leibniz-Newton formula into account. Certain free weighting matrices are used to express this relationship and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs)-based algorithm to design the controller stabilizing the system.

A numerical procedure is developed to analyze the time-dependent behavior of prestressed concrete bridges constructed by the segmental cantilever method. The developed computer program accounts for the time-dependent properties of prestressed concrete materials due to the varing modulus of elasticity, creep and shrinkage of concrete and the stress relaxation of prestressing steel. It also accounts for the stiffness increase due to the presence of the steel reinforcements and the effects of the shear deformation of the prestressed concrete bridge girders. The program is applied to a multi-span continuous segmental prestressed concrete bridge to demonstrate its capabilities.

Time dependent analysis of prestressed concrete beams subjected to pure torsion is studied. The present theory covers the behavior from the service load range to the ultimate stage. The tensile resistance of concrete is appropriately considered. The biaxial stress effects due to diagonal cracking are also taken into account. The time dependent aging, creep and shringkage effects are modelled by employing the equivalent nonmechanical torque concept. The present theory allows more accurate prediction of the service load behavior of pretressed concrete members.

A numerical analysis in linear-elastic state for prestressed concrete tanks including the time-dependent effects due to creep and shrinkage of concrete, relaxation of prestressing cable have been studied by many researchers. In this paper, not only the time dependent factor but also the nonlinear elasto-plastic behavior are considered. Prestresses are considerde in vertical and circumferential direction.

This paper propose a new delay-dependent stability criterion of neutral time-delay systems. By employing double-integral terms in augmented states and constructing a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii's functional, a delay-dependent stability criterion is established in terms of Linear Matrix Inequality. Through numerical examples, the validity and improvement results obtained by applying the proposed stability criterion will be shown.
