    Flexible profile approach to the conjugate heat transfer problem

    Full text link
    The flexible profile approach proposed earlier to create CTM (compact or reduced order thermal models) is extended to cover the area of conjugate heat transfer. The flexible profile approach is a methodology that allows building a highly boundary conditions independent CTM, with any desired degree of accuracy, that may adequately replace detailed 3D models for the whole spectrum of applications in which the modeled object may be used. The extension to conjugate problems radically solves the problem of interfacing two different domains. Each domain, fluid or solid, can be "compacted" independently creating two CTM that can be joined together to produce reliable results for any arbitrary set of external boundary conditions.Comment: Submitted on behalf of TIMA Editions (http://irevues.inist.fr/tima-editions

    MODEL OPTIMASI PEMOTONGAN BESI TULANGAN PELAT LANTAI DENGAN PROGRAM LINEAR

    SLES SABRY , 2013, “Model Optimasi Pemotongan Besi Tulangan Pelat Lantai Dengan Program Linear” Skripsi, Jurusan Teknik Sipil Fakultas Teknik Universitas Sebelas Maret Surakarta. Sekarang pertumbuhan proyek konstruksi di Indonesia semakin berkembang di berbagai kota. Dalam sebuah proyek, material besi tulangan merupakan komponen yang penting dalam menentukan besarnya biaya suatu proyek. Penggunaan material besi tulangan di lapangan seringkali menimbulkan sisa yang cukup besar sehingga usaha meminimalkan sisa material besi akan membantu meningkatkan keuntungan kontraktor. Sehingga perlu untuk membuat model pemotongan tulangan pada pelat lantai untuk menghasilkan waste yang sekecil mungkin. Untuk menyelesaikan masalah ini digunakan metode program linear. Model program linear yang diterapkan adalah metode Simplex dengan bantuan Add In Solver pada Ms Excel. Untuk menghasilkan langsung di lapangan digunakan data sekunder berupa data-data pemotongan yang di lakukan kontraktor pada proyek gedung Sekretariat Daerah Kota Surakarta. Hasil optimasi yang dilakukan menunjukkan pengurangan waste atau terdapat penghematan sebesar 12,516% pada pemotongan tulangan pelat lantai. Penghematan ini disebabkan karena penggunaan program linear untuk perencanaan pemotongan tulangan, Sedangkan di lapangan pemotongan hanya diserahkan pada tukang besi

    AN INDEX METHOD FOR SELECTING REPRESENTATIVE CITIES OF A TARGET MARKET

    An index was developed to rank U.S. metropolitan areas according to overall similarities in their socio-economic characteristics to the U.S. average. This index is given as a solution to matching a representative city or market area to a target market as well as matching a group of cities which are similar to each other. The index shows stability in ranking these cities with different consumption data for similar products and proves to be a promising approach whenever the researcher must find a group of cities which are similar to each other and to the target market.Research Methods/ Statistical Methods,
