in this paper, shielding effectiveness (se) of a perforated enclosure with imperfectly conducting walls is evaluated. to this end, first, an accurate numerical technique based on method of moments (mom) ispresented. in this method, lossy metallic walls of the enclosure are replaced by equivalent electric surfacecurrent sources. then, the impedance boundary condition on the imperfectly conductin...

We investigate the structure of the Minkowski sum of standard simplices in R. In particular, we investigate the one-dimensional structure, the vertices, their degrees and the edges in the Minkowski sum polytope. 2000 MSC: 52B05, 52B11, 05C07.

Let A be a finite nonempty set of integers. An asymptotic estimate of several dilates sum size was obtained by Bukh. The unique known exact bound concerns the sum |A + k ·A|, where k is a prime and |A| is large. In its full generality, this bound is due to Cilleruelo, Serra and the first author. Let k be an odd prime and assume that |A| > 8kk. A corollary to our main result states that |2 · A +...

In this paper, via $C$-class functions, as a new class of functions, a fixed theorem in complete $b$-metric spaces is presented. Moreover, we study some results, which are direct consequences of the main results. In addition, as an application, the existence of a solution of an integral equation is given.

Recently, Eisenbrand, Pach, Rothvoß, and Sopher studied the function M(m, n), which is the largest cardinality of a convexly independent subset of the Minkowski sum of some planar point sets P and Q with |P | = m and |Q| = n. They proved that M(m, n) = O(m2/3n2/3+m+n), and asked whether a superlinear lower bound exists for M(n, n). In this note, we show that their upper bound is the best possib...

Asphaltene instability is one of the major problems in gas injection projects throughout the world. Numerous models have been developed to predict asphaltene precipitation; The scaling equation is an attractive tool because of its simplicity and not involving complex properties of asphaltene. In this work, a new scaling model is presented to account  for asphaltene precipitation due to gas ...
