    • Generation of Dielectrophoretic Force under Uniform Electric Field 

      Kua, C.H.; Yang, C.; Goh, S.; Isabel, R.; Youcef-Toumi, Kamal; e.a. (2006-01)
      Effective dipole moment method has been widely accepted as the de facto technique in predicting the dielectrophoretic force due to the non-uniform electric field. In this method, a finite-particle is modeled as an equivalent ...

    • Setting Real Time WIP Levels in Production Lines 

      Yang, R.L.; Subramaniam, Velusamy; Gershwin, Stanley B. (2006-01)
      A new algorithm is developed for setting WIP level in production lines. It is a pull policy that determines when to authorize a job to be processed. Dynamic information in the system such as machine failures and repairs, ...
