    • Performance Analysis of Order Fulfillment for Low Demand Items in E-tailing 

      Chhaochharia, Pallav; Graves, Stephen C. (2007-01)
      We study inventory allocation and order fulfillment policies among warehouses for low-demand SKUs at an online retailer. A large e-tailer strategically stocks inventory for SKUs with low demand. The motivations are to ...

    • Particle Transportation Using Programmable Electrode Arrays 

      Kua, C.H.; Lam, Yee Cheong; Rodriguez, I.; Youcef-Toumi, Kamal; Yang, C. (2007-01)
      This study presents a technique to manipulate particles in microchannels using arrays of individually excitable electrodes. These electrodes were energized sequentially to form a non-uniform electric field that moved along ...

    • Micro Injection-Molding of Cyclic Olefin Copolymer Using Metallic Glass Insert 

      Loke, Y.W.; Tor, Shu Beng; Chun, Jung-Hoon; Loh, N.H.; Hardt, David E. (2007-01)
      There is shift in trend towards the use of high quality polymers as the base material in manufacturing microfluidic chips. In this paper, an amorphous metallic alloy mold insert was used in a micro injection-molding process ...
