In the location science, environmental effect becomes a new main consideration for site selection. For the unwanted facility location selection, decision makers should consider the cost of resolving the environmental conflict. We introduced the negative influence cost for the facility which was inversely proportional to distance between the facility and residents. An unwanted facility location problem was suggested to minimize the sum of the negative influence cost and the transportation cost. The objective cost function was analyzed as nonlinear type and was neither convex nor concave. Three GRASP (Greedy Randomized adaptive Search Procedure) methods as like Random_GRASP, Epsilon_GRASP and GRID_GRASP were developed to solve the unwanted facility location problem. The Newton's method for nonlinear optimization problem was used for local search in GRASP. Experimental results showed that quality of solution of the GRID_GRASP was better than those of Random_GRASP and Epsilon_GRASP. The calculation time of Random_GRASP and Epsilon_GRASP were faster than that of Grid_GRASP.

Determination of a two-point boundary value problem is the key of finding the control function u(t) with the application of the fundamental idea of Minimum principle. The late development shows the discovery of the initial costate vector for the solution of a two-point value problem. As a new technique of determining the optimal control function, Newton's Sequential method is examined about a number of engineering problems and found available.

Determination of a two-point boundary value problem is the key of finding the control function u(f) with the application of the fundamental idea of Minimum principle. The late development shows the discovery of the initial testate vector for the solution of a two-point value problem. As a new technique of determining the optimal control function, Newton's sequential method is examined in this paper.

The load flow calculation is one of the most critical issues in electrical power systems. Generally, load flow has been calculated by Gauss-Seidel method and Newton-Raphson method but these methods have some problems such as non-convergence due to heavy load and initial value. In this paper, to overcome such problems, the power flow is calculated by genetic algorithm. At the heavy load, the solution for problem can not be obtained by the Newton-Raphson method. However, it can be solved in case of using genetic algorithm. In this paper, the strong point of this method would be demonstrated in application to an example system.

A fixed-point iteration is proposed to integrate the stress and state variables in the incremental analysis of plastic deformation. The Conventional Newton-Raphson method requires a second-order derivative of the yield function to generate a complicated code, and the convergence cannot be guaranteed beforehand. The proposed fixed-point iteration does not require a second-order derivative of the yield function, and convergence is ensured for a given strain increment. The fixed-point iteration is easier to implement, and the computational time is shortened compared with the Newton-Raphson method. The plane-stress condition is considered for the biaxial loading conditions to confirm the convergence of the fixed-point iteration. 3-dimensional tensile specimen is considered to compare the computational times in the ABAQUS/explicit finite element analysis.

As a worker performs a certain operation repeatedly, he tends to become familiar with the job and complete it in a very short time. That means that the efficiency is improved due to his accumulated knowledge, experience and skill in regards to the operation. Investing time in an output is reduced by repeating any operation. This phenomenon is referred to as the learning curve effect. A learning curve is a graphical representation of the changing rate of learning. According to previous literature, learning curve effects are determined by subjective pre-assigned factors. In this study, we propose a new statistical model to clarify the learning curve effect by means of a basic cumulative distribution function. This work mainly focuses on the statistical modeling of binary data. We employ the Newton-Raphson method for the estimation and Delta method for the construction of confidence intervals. We also perform a real data analysis.

A two-dimensional numerical analysis progranl, called SOMOS ( simulation of MO5 transistors), has been developed for the simulation of MOSFET's with various channel lengths and bias conditions. The finite difference approximation of the fundamental equa-tions are formulated using Newton's method for Poisson's equation and the divergence theorem for the continuity equation. For the solution of the lincariBed equations, SOR (successive over relaxation) method and Gummel's algorithm have been employed, The total simulation time for oar operating point is varying between 30 sec. and 4 min. on VAX 11/780 depending on bias conditions, The nonuniform mesh was generated and refined automatically to account for various bias values and the potential distributions.

In this study, we propose a new logarithmic barrier approach to solve linear programming problem using the projective method of Karmarkar. We are interested in computation of the direction by Newton's method and of the step-size using minorant functions instead of line search methods in order to reduce the computation cost. Our new approach is even more beneficial than classical line search methods. We reinforce our purpose by many interesting numerical simulations proved the effectiveness of the algorithm developed in this work.

Two influence diagnostic methods for the common mean model are proposed. First, an investigation of the influence of observations according to minor perturbations of the common mean model is made by adapting the local influence method which is based on the likelihood displacement. It is well known that the maximum likelihood estimates are in general sensitive to influential observations. Case-deletions can be a candidate for detecting influential observations. However, the maximum likelihood estimators are iteratively computed and therefore case-deletions involve an enormous amount of computations. An approximation by Newton's method to the maximum likelihood estimator obtained after a single observation was deleted can reduce much of computational burden, which will be treated in this work. A numerical example is given for illustration and it shows that the proposed diagnostic methods can be useful tools.

Voloxidizer for hot cell demonstration that handle spend fuel of high radiation virulence in limited space should become a small size and not scatter in its exit. This study determine optimum velocity of $U_3O_8$ using Newton-Raphson Method. We have conducted fortran programing on the Newton-Raphson Method, obtained a theory results and, predicted optimum velocity on the particle size distribution of $U_3O_8$. We have conducted experimentation using acrylic experimental device for verification of theory method, sampled and analyzed using the particle size analyzer In the results, we have found maximum $5\~7\%$ error rate in the comparative value of theory and experimentation. Optimum velocity and experimental results of $U_3O_8$ for scatter prevention have applied for design of demonstration voloxidizer, and produced operation condition of voloxidizer.
