A queueing system for airport buses

The use of remote terminals to relieve airport congestion leads rather naturally to queueing systems with batch arrivals occuring at fixed time intervals to a multiple server service facility. In this paper arrival point steady-state solutions to the D^[X]/M/c queueing system are presented. Solution of the steady-state equation WP = W and Neuts' method of solving the GI^[X]/M/c system are used to obtain steady-state system size densities. Results obtained using the two methods are compared with each other as well as with simulation results.     

Estimation of Rolling Motion of Ship in Random Beam Seas by Efficient Analytical and Numerical Approaches

A steady-state roll motion of ships with nonlinear damping and restoring moments for all times is modeled by a second-order nonlinear differential equation. Ana...
