In this paper, a nonlinear stiff differential equation is solved by using the Rosenbrock iterative method, modified homotpy analysis method and power series method. The approximate solution of this equation is calculated in the form of series which its components are computed by applying a recursive relations. Some numerical examples are studied to demonstrate the accuracy of the presented meth...

New solutions of some important partial differential equations are obtained using the first integral method. The efficiency of the method is demonstrated by applying it for the linear Klein-Gordan equation, MKdV equation, Burgers’ equation in two and three dimensions.

A functionally graded material beam with generalized boundary conditions is contemplated in the present study in order to examine the deformation and stress behavior under thermal and thermo-mechanical load. Three discrete combinations of functionally graded materials have been deliberate in including a wide range of materials and material properties. The variation of material properties has be...

OBJECTIVE To assess when sunburn occurs and who experiences sunburn by personal UV dosimetry and diaries. DESIGN Open prospective observational study. SETTING University hospital. PARTICIPANTS A convenience sample of 340 Danish volunteers: children, adolescents, indoor workers, sun worshippers, golfers, and gardeners (age range, 4-68 years). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Subjects recorded sunbu...

tension-leg platform (tlp) is a vertically moored floating structure. the platform is permanently mooredby tendons. surge equation of motion of tlp is highly nonlinear because of large displacement and it should be solved with perturbation parameter in time domain. this paper compare the dynamic motion responses of a tlp in regular sea waves obtained by applying three method in time domain usin...

We report six confirmed cases of Legionnaires' disease in Scotland caused by Legionella longbeachae serogroup 1, identified over a four-week period in August–September 2013. All cases required admission to hospital intensive care facilities. All cases were amateur gardeners with frequent exposure to horticultural growing media throughout their incubation period. L. longbeachae was identified in...

The ability of urban and community gardens to enhance health social connections is dependent on the continued availability places garden continuation gardening by individuals. Gardener support organizations offer resources success gardens, such as providing free or low-cost material resources, education, technical support. They can also nurture local networks gardeners that share support, exper...
