The phrase "at bulk" is not correct in standard written English.
It is likely a misinterpretation of the phrase "in bulk," which refers to purchasing or dealing with large quantities of items.
Example: "We decided to buy the supplies in bulk to save money."
Alternatives: "in large quantities" or "in mass."
We want to look at bulk macroscopic properties of which pressure and volume is a complete pair.
In the central Atlantic region, which includes New York and New Jersey, stocks at bulk terminals are down by 50percentt.
The stuff is inexpensive — $5 a cubic yard for Cured Bloom — but the utility's delivery system is aimed at bulk users.
Electrocatalytic reaction parameters obtained at bulk platinum metal electrodes may not be applied to high surface area platinum electrocatalysts.
The results show that incorporation of these oxo-anions into the calcite structure is so highly endothermic that incorporation is practically impossible at bulk equilibrium and standard conditions.
To suppress effectively fugitive dust emissions using water spraying systems at bulk solids handling an optimal design of these devices is necessary.
Quick summary: We give dirt-simple and easy-to-analyze randomized algorithms that improve the best-known approximation ratios for connected facility location, virtual private network design, and single-sink buy-at-bulk network design.
This problem lies at the heart of numerous approximation and online algorithms including ones for group Steiner tree, metric labeling, buy-at-bulk network design and metrical task system.
For a leasing variant of the buy-at-bulk network design problem, these results imply: (i) an algorithm which improves the best previous approximation, and (ii) the first competitive online algorithm.
The single-sink buy-at-bulk (SSBB) problem asks for a low-cost installation of cables along the edges of G, such that the demands can simultaneously send their flow to root r.
Quick summary: Presents the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for network design with multiple commodities and economies of scale (all recent breakthroughs for buy-at-bulk network design have studied only the special case where all commodities share a common sink vertex).
