one of the necessary preconditions to the establishment and stability of optimal currency area is the homogeneity of the economic structure in member states. but place with eurozone currency crisis, the question arises whether the economic structure of the eurozone countries were homogeneous? accordingly, this study by using an econometrics model and estimating it by panel data method, has been...

– For binary mixtures of fluids without chemical reactions, but with components having different temperatures, the Hamilton principle of least action is able to produce the equation of motion for each component and a balance equation of the total heat exchange between components. In this nonconservative case, a Gibbs dynamical identity connecting the equations of momenta, masses, energy and hea...

Implementations of the heat balance integral method are discussed in which exponential functions are used in place of the familiar polynomial approximants. The rationale is based upon that of least-squares in that the use of ‘appropriate’ basis functions can enhance solution accuracy. Whilst this is true in principle it is shown that considerable skill must be exercised when deviating from poly...

Hadoop MapReduce framework is an important distributed processing model for large-scale data intensive applications. The current Hadoop and the existing Hadoop distributed file system’s rack-aware data placement strategy in MapReduce in the homogeneous Hadoop cluster assume that each node in a cluster has the same computing capacity and a same workload is assigned to each node. Default Hadoop d...

Cluster distribution kinetics is adopted to explore the kinetics of polymer crystallization. Population balance equations based on crystal size distribution and concentration of amorphous polymer segments are solved numerically and the related dynamic moment equations are also solved. The model accounts for heterogeneous or homogeneous nucleation and crystal growth. Homogeneous nucleation rates...
