چکیده
Typesetting note: We have used Greek symbols in the text but we have found these sometimes do not appear if the document is opened on a computer loaded with different fonts. The symbols are Δ (upper case delta) and ε (epsilon). These symbols appear on p.3, paragraph 4, line 2 (below equation 1): " where a i is the activation of the sending unit and a j is the activation of the receiving unit, w ij is the connection strength between them, [uppercase delta] is the change in this strength, and [epsilon] is the 'learning rate parameter' (see, e.g., O'Reilly and Munakata, 2000, equation 4.2).

Computational plays in applicable ethics with an Islamic approach
Childhood and adolescence may be regarded to be the most sensitive periods with regard to education and playing is an essential need for children and adolescents. Today computational plays are the main rivals in their plays and take more than forty millions hours of our children and adolescent`s time daily. The researches performed on the destructive and useful effects of computational plays ha...
متن کاملModelling of Crack Growth Using a New Fracture Criteria Based Peridynamics
Peridynamics (PD) is a nonlocal continuum theory based on integro-differential equations without spatial derivatives. The elongation fracture criterion is implicitly incorporated in the PD theory, and fracture is a natural outcome of the simulation. On the other hand, a new fracture criterion based on the crack opening displacement combined with peridynamic (PD-COD) is proposed. When the relati...
متن کاملModelling potassium uptake by wheat
A model has been used to simulate potassium (K) uptake by wheat in a pot culture experiment. Three soils from India, namely Alfisol, Inceptisol and Vertisol, were differentially K exhausted by Sudan grass (Surghum vulgare var. Sudanensis) for a period of 280 days and were used to simulate potassium uptake by wheat (Triticum aestivum) and also to predict the amounts of K released or fixed during...
متن کاملThe computational modeling of sensitive periods.
In the continuing debate on sensitive periods, Tyler (this issue) argues for a mechanistic explanation of sensitive periods in development, rather than simply deriving a relationship between plasticity and age. Armstrong et al. (2005) endorse convergent approaches to assess types of plasticity, including the use of behavioral evidence, neurophysiological evidence, functional magnetic resonance ...
متن کاملMATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF THE EFFECT OF FOAM DEGRADATION ON MOULD FILLING IN THE GREY IRON EPC PROCESS
In this investigation a new model was developed to calculate gas pressure at the melt/foam interface (Gap) resulting from foam degradation during mould filling in the Lost Foam Casting (LFC) process. Different aspects of the process, such as foam degradation, gas elimination, transient mass, heat transfer, and permeability of the refractory coating were incorporated into this model. A Computati...
متن کاملExtension Ability of Reduced Order Model of Unsteady Incompressible Flows Using a Combination of POD and Fourier Modes
In this article, an improved reduced order modelling approach, based on the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method, is presented. After projecting the governing equations of flow dynamics along the POD modes, a dynamical system was obtained. Normally, the classical reduced order models do not predict accurate time variations of flow variables due to some reasons. The response of the dynam...
