A REDUCED MODEL FOR A PNEUMATIC TRANSMISSION LINE

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

A Transmission Expansion Planning Model for Maximizing Merchant Investment

An Efficient Predictive Model for Probability of Genetic Diseases Transmission Using a Combined Model

In this article, a new combined approach of a decision tree and clustering is presented to predict the transmission of genetic diseases. In this article, the performance of these algorithms is compared for more accurate prediction of disease transmission under the same condition and based on a series of measures like the positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy, sensitivit...

A mixed integer nonlinear programming model for optimizing a gas pipeline transmission linear network

The technical equipment developed and used in both installation and operation processes in refineries, oil and gas pipelines, and gas booster stations has always been expensive. Hence, managers at different organizational levels are keen to find methods to control and reduce these costs. Generally speaking, the operators in a gas booster station choose the operating devices without considering ...

A Transmission Line Matrix Model for Shielding Effects in Stents

In an attempt to determine the RF shielding artifacts produced by conducting stents during MRI scanning of patients, a Transmission Line Matrix (TLM) model was developed based on the symmetrical condensed node. This approach allows considerable flexibility including freedom from stability issues and the ability to reconstruct digital signals in the time or frequency domain. To validate the resu...
