Some aspects of nonlocal dynamics on directed and undirected networks for an initial value problem whose Jacobian matrix is a variable-order fractional power Laplacian are discussed here. This new extension to non-stationary behaviour class non-local phenomena complex which both graphs considered. Under appropriate assumptions, the existence, uniqueness, uniform asymptotic stability solutions u...

Modelling the change in heat load with time is difficult for products with variable and complex geometries and compositions, such as beef carcasses. However, accurate heat load prediction is important for efficient design and operation of refrigeration systems. A simple method for constructing a model to predict the time-variable product heat load profile during chilling applications is propose...

abstract: a time domain semi-analytical solution to study thermoelastic creep behavior of  functionally graded rotating axisymmetric disks with variable thickness is presented. the rate type governing differential equations for the considered structure are derived and analytically solved. to solve these  equations, the disk is divided into some virtual sub-domains. general solution of  equilibr...

the aim of this study was to optimize the encapsulation conditions of garlic oil (go) with β-cyclodextrin (go/β-cd) inclusion complex by the co-precipitation method. response surface optimization of encapsulation of go with β–cd was performed with a three-variable, three-level and the optimum conditions were as follows: temperature: 35oc, core/wall: 8/100, and wall/solvent: 5.5/100. the complex...

In the applications of finite mixture of regression (FMR) models, often many covariates are used, and their contributions to the response variable vary from one component to another of the mixture model. This creates a complex variable selection problem. Existing methods, such as the Akaike information criterion and the Bayes information criterion, are computationally expensive as the number of...

A big problem in many technical applications is the complex hysteretic characteristic of sensors and actuators, which causes a non-linear and multi-valued mapping between the output variable and the input variable of the transducer. In the last few years at the LPA a general modeling and compensator design method was developed for such complex hysteretic nonlinearities which is based on the so-...

We present a new application of the complex polynomial method variant of the complex variable boundary element method. Instead of fitting the boundary conditions using collocation points, we minimize the error of fit in the l2 norm to minimize the least-squares error. This approach greatly enhances the utility and efficiency of the method, allowing us to apply the method to a variety of enginee...

A problem of all particle methods is that they produce large vacuum regions when they are applied to a free gas ow, for example. With the approach recently proposed by the author Numer. Math., in press], this diiculty can be avoided. One can let the particles adapt their size to the local state of the uid. How, is described in the present article. The diameter as an additional degree of freedom...
