چکیده

This paper presents statistical approaches to testing whether data are spherical in the topological sense, ie, they lie on a closed manifold with a hollow interior. We characterize the sphere by it’s Betti numbers and use the computational topology program PLEX [12] based on simplicial complexes to calculate the data’s Betti numbers. We use the parametric bootstrap approach to test the power of the test for several alternatives including the full sphere or ellipsoid filling points in three dimensions.

Speeding up the Stress Analysis of Hollow Circular FGM Cylinders by Parallel Finite Element Method

In this article, a parallel computer program is implemented, based on Finite Element Method, to speed up the analysis of hollow circular cylinders, made from Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs). FGMs are inhomogeneous materials, which their composition gradually varies over volume. In parallel processing, an algorithm is first divided to independent tasks, which may use individual or shared da...

Structure and Properties of a Natural Celulosic Hollow Fiber

The interaction of thermal radiation with conduction and laminar natural convection in a vertical circular pin, situated at participating gas, is numerically investigated. An absorbing and emitting gas is considered, and treated to be a gray participating media. Under the idealizing of gray gas, the Rosselan4 approximation is employed to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. ...

Gas Permeation Modeling through a Multilayer Hollow Fiber Composite Membrane

In this study, a time-dependent 2D axisymmetric model of a multilayer hollow fiber composite membrane for gas separation is proposed. In spite of the common multilayer membranes, which a dense layer coated on a porous support layer and subjected into the feed stream, here, the porous support is exposed to the feed gas. In this regard, the governing equations of species transport are developed f...
