Constant Slope Maps and the Vere-Jones Classification

vegetation change detection using multi-temporal remotly sensed data during recent three decades by artificial intelligence technique (Case study: protected area of Bashgol)

Quantitative and qualitative information of vegetation and its changes in duration of time as a basic foundation of determination of  habitat quality, priority of protected area and also determination of price of ecosystem services in order to optimum management of natural resources and sustainable development is a very important technical point. In other hand, researchers are interested in rem...

Land use changes detection and spatial distribution using digital and satellite data, case study: Farim drainage basin, Northern of Iran

Land use change may influence many natural phenomena and ecological processes, including runoff, soil erosion, sedimentation and soil conditions. Decreasing of forest area in the North of Iran is one of the critical problems in recent years. The aims of this study are to detect land use changes between 1967 to 2002 using satellite images of Land Sat 7 ETM+ (2002), aerial photos and digital topo...

The Modified Lennard-Jones and Devonshire Equation of State

Lennard-Jones-Devonshire equation of state is an old but theoretical based EOS. The concept of the nearest neighboring molecules or coordination number is proposed to be a function of temperature and volume, whereas it is a constant in the original. The dilute gas and hard sphere limits of molecules are employed to determine this function. Improvement of this modification is demonstrated by pro...

No Semiconjugacy to a Map of Constant Slope

We study countably piecewise continuous, piecewise monotone interval maps. We establish a necessary and sufficient criterion for the existence of a nondecreasing semiconjugacy to a map of constant slope in terms of the existence of an eigenvector of an operator acting on a space of measures. Then we give sufficient conditions under which this criterion is not satisfied. Finally, we give example...
