recently, choudhury and metiya [fixed points of weak contractions in cone metric spaces, nonlinear analysis 72 (2010) 1589-1593] proved some fixed point theorems for weak contractions in cone metric spaces. weak contractions are generalizations of the banach's contraction mapping, which have been studied by several authors. in this paper, we introduce the notion of $f$-weak contractions and als...

planning robot trajectory is a complex task that plays a significant role in design and application of robots in task space. the problem is formulated as a trajectory optimization problem which is fundamentally a constrained nonlinear optimization problem. open-loop optimal control method is proposed as an approach for trajectory optimization of cable parallel manipulator for a given two-end-po...

background: amiodarone is a drug that is used for treatment of cardiac arrhythmia after cardiac ischemia. this drug as b blocker decreases arrhythmia rate but it has many side effects on different tissues. since there are rare reports about changes of lacrimal glands, this research has been carried out to study the morphological and ultrastructural changes of lacrimal gland cells after amiodaro...

in this paper we introduce new modified implicit and explicit algorithms and prove strong convergence of the two algorithms to a common fixed point of a family of uniformly asymptotically regularasymptotically nonexpansive mappings in a real reflexive banach space with a uniformly g$hat{a}$teaux differentiable norm. our result is applicable in $l_{p}(ell_{p})$ spaces,$1 < p

this paper is devoted to the spectral theory (more precisely, tothe variational theory of the spectrum) of guided waves in anelastic half cylinder.  we use variational methods to investigateseveral aspects of propagating waves, including localization (seefigure 1), existence criteria and the formulas to find them. weapproach the problem using two complementary methods: thevariational methods fo...

conclusions results show that trigger point injection therapy in patients suffering from chronic lumbosacral radiculopathy with trigger points can significantly improve their recovery, and conservative therapy may not be adequate. results out of 98 patients, 64 had trigger points. thirty-two patients were assigned to each group. pain scores (mean ± sd) in tp group was 7.12 ± 1.13 and in n group...

begin{abstract} in this paper, we introduce an iterative method for amenable semigroup of non expansive mappings and infinite family of non expansive mappings in the frame work of hilbert spaces. we prove the strong convergence of the proposed iterative algorithm to the unique solution of a variational inequality, which is the optimality condition for a minimization problem. the results present...
