    Abstract: The problem of locating distribution centers is one of the most important issues in design of supply chain. The design of the distribution system is an important issue for almost every company. Wide range of problems arising in practical applications can be formulated as Mixed-integer nonlinear Models. Multi-commodity distribution system design is ... Show More

    Abstract: We discuss the thermal radiation effect on unsteady free-convective Couette flow of conducting fluid in the presence of transverse magnetic field. The mathematical model is highly nonlinear due to the effect of the thermal radiation. Both numerical solution by the finite difference method and the analytical solution of the steady state by the pertu... Show More
