Various optimization techniques have been used to solve Traffic Assignment problem, similarly different variants of Gravity Model have been used to generate the trips across the network. This paper presents a unique methodology of combining both techniques and presents a holistic framework of managing Transportation Corridors that emerged due to combining these two proven techniques with slight modifications. Modified Gravity Model (MGM) successfully predicted and generated the trips across a corridor, and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) helped assign Trips. The data used has been obtained from a real-life Corridor and the results have been verified using statistics from the national authorities managing the corridor. Specific case of China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) has been considered and modeled in Simio, Matlab and QGIS.

Active magnetic bearing (AMB) systems have attracted much attention in the high speed rotating machinery industry. This paper presents an application of discrete-time model predictive control (MPC) subject to input/states constraints to control an AMB system based on linear time-invariant (LTI) model. The main control objectives are to levitate the rotor shaft of the AMB system while tracking a reference trajectory and to reject possible disturbances without violating the input and state constraints. A nonlinear (NL) model of the AMB system is considered; at each sampling instant, a finite horizon MPC problem is solved to compute the optimal control input. The performance and the efficiency of the proposed MPC is validated via simulation and comparison with another classical PID controller.

This paper presents the design of a laser measurement system for measuring the 3-dimensional(3D) displacement of railway track. The system consists of a three-channel laser sensor and a regular tetrahedral target. With three lasers, the sensor placed at a stationary position away from the railway track gets the 3-dimensional displacement of a target on the railway track. The structural displacement is computed in real time through processing the measured data. A clever conversion formula developed in this paper enables measurement of 3D displacement by tracking three sets of one-dimensional data of a target without vision technology. The efficacy of the laser system in 3D displacement measurement of the railway track was demonstrated through a fine-tuning table test. The maximum error is 1mm, which nearly equals to the accuracy of the laser sensor. An artificial means of marking the target is also proposed to further improve the adaptability of the system to the dark environment.

Under the fourth industrial revolution, how the traditional manufacturing industry moves from the low end of the value chain to the mid-to-high end, and from the traditional standardization and mass production to personalization and small batch customization is the key to the transformation and upgrading of the industry. This paper focuses on how Haier COSMOPlat can facilitate industrial upstream and downstream collaboration and cross-border integration. Through an explanatory single case study method, this paper analyzes how Haier COSMOPlat provides a model and opportunity for transformation and upgrading for industrial manufacturing, as well as how Haier builds a global and industry-wide industrial mass customization platform, successfully achieves cross-domain and cross-industry collaboration, and enables companies to transform and upgrade. This paper summarizes that COSMOPlat not only promotes the upstream and downstream collaboration of the industrial chain, but also promotes the cross-border integration, with a view to providing a new path for the transformation and upgrading of China's traditional manufacturing industry

Massive development of information technology and internet access have driven major changes in people's behavior in certain activities. In the education sector, e-learning becomes a new trend in educational technology. A company of aerospace tried to implement e-learning as a breakthrough project to boost knowledge sharing among its employees. The purpose of this study is to design e-learning for boring process activity. The result of this study is expected to help the company to develop employees' production expertise and reduce production defect rate. The e-learning development was divided into two parts. The first part is the knowledge conversion process based on the SECI model. The second part is the e-learning development process based on the waterfall method and the KM Cycle framework. The three e-learning main structures developed are the online course, the articles that contain best practice and lesson-learned, and the community of practice.

The Probabilistic Orienteering Problem is an optimization problem where a set of customers, each with an associated prize and probability of requiring a service, a time budget and travel times between customers are given. The objective is to select the subset of customers that maximize the expected total prize collected in the given time (taking into account of the total travel time spent visiting them). Random Restart Local Search is a heuristic method widely used to solve combinatorial optimization problems. In particular, it is used in conjunction with local search procedures to escape from local optima. The method works by restarting the optimization search once no further improvement is possible by the embedded local search component. Each restart is associated with a new initial solution for the optimization, and selecting such restart initial solutions play an important role in the success of the overall algorithm. In this work we propose a method to effectively selecting such solutions, and we present an empirical study to validate our ideas.
