Integral and integro-differential equations are one of the most useful mathematical tools in both pure and applied mathematics. In this article, we present a variational iteration method for solving Fredholm integro-differential equations. This study provides an analytical approximation to determine the behavior of the solution. To show the efficiency of the present method for our proble...

In this work, using perturbation technique we have developed an approximate analytic model for evaluating the band structure of a 2-D octagonal photonic quasicrystal (PQC). Although numerical techniques are being used for evaluating such band structures, developing a numerical model to the best of our knowledge this work is the first instance of reporting helps to understand the physical proper...

The present paper is concerned with  the investigation of disturbances in a homogeneous  transversely isotropic thermoelastic rotating  medium with two temperatures, in the presence of the combined effects of   Hall currents and magnetic field due to thermomechanical sources. The formulation is applied to the thermoelasticity theories developed by Green-Naghdi Theories of Type-II and Type-III. ...

Many simulation algorithms (chemical reaction systems, differential systems arising from the modeling of transient behavior in the process industries and etc.) contain the numerical solution of systems of differential equations. For the efficient solution of the above mentioned problems, linear multistep methods or Runge-Kutta technique are used. For the simulation of chemical procedures the ra...

In this paper, a heuristic scheme is used to obtain the numerical solution of the non linear ordinary differential equations (NLODEs). The approximate solutions of the given NLODEs are deduced as a linear combination of some log sigmoid basis functions with unknown parameters. The given NLODEs are converted into equivalent global error minimization problems. Genetic algorithm (GA) and a hybrid ...

Microwave processing of wood involves many complicated physical phenomena. The process includes absorption of the electromagnetic energy, transport of the generated heat, shape and dimension changes of the wood, phase changes in water, water transport through the wood material, etc. In order to optimize and control this process, the understanding of the various phenomena involved is needed. Thi...

Failures are inevitable in wireless sensor networks due to the fragile features and unattended deployment. To explore an effectual technique for node’s fault detection caused by energy consumption, a new algorithm, Fault Detection Technique based on Numerical Taxonomy (FDNT) is proposed in this paper. The algorithm is deployed on the sink node with unconstrained energy consumption and is on the...
