Under the formalism of annealed averaging of the partition function, a type of random multifractal measures with the multipliers exponentially distributed is investigated in detail. Branching emerges in the curve of generalized dimensions, and negative values of generalized dimensions arise....

Rapid pyrolysis of three typical Chinese coals, lignite from Inner Mongolia, bituminous from Shenfu coalfield, and anthracite from Guizhou, as well as a petroleum coke were carried out in a drop-style high-frequency furnace. The reactor was induction coil heated and had a very small...

This paper presents a formulation and solution for the train connection services (TCSs) problem in a large-scale rail network in order to determine the optimal freight train services, the frequency of services, and the distribution of classification workload among yards. TCS problem is modeled...
