CITIES AS SYSTEMS OF MATERIAL AND RESOURCE FLOWS

The term “push” and “pull” have been used to explain a wide variety of production inventory systems. The distinction refers to a specific attribute, which can be identified by observing the mechanisms for controlling material flow on the shop floor and a specific policy for the management of invento[r]

Electrical transformers are important components in transmission and distribution
power systems; they make possible the transfer of MWs and Mvars between networks
operating at various voltage levels. The modeling of these power system components in the steadystate
analysis of electrical networks is[r]

Jizan mountainous areas in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are suffering from a variety
of slope failures. Most of these failures happen due to heavy rainfalls from time to

combination of these which affected many roads, highways[r]

This book originated over 30 years ago as two separate publications. The two were
combined to create a single volume at the last edition. The continuing success and
popularity of this study resource can be attributed to contributions from numerous
sources, but unfortunately space does not permit[r]
