natural convection heat transfer has many applications in different fields of industry; such as cooling industries, electronic transformer devices and ventilation equipment; due to simple process, economic advantage, low noise and renewed retrieval. recently, heat transfer of nanofluids have been considered because of higher thermal conductivity coefficient compared with those of ordinary fluid...

The curvelet transform as a multiscale transform has directional parameters occurs at all scales, locations, and orientations. It is superior to wavelet transform in image processing domain. This paper analyzes the characters of DSA medical image, and proposes a novel approach for DSA medical image fusion, which is using curvelet information entropy and dynamic fuzzy logic. Firstly, the image w...

extended abstract introduction hospitals are the most important and complex social units which are intended to protect the lives of people and to treat and improve them. with the passage of time and progress in science, hospitals have been equipped with more advanced technology and facilities. more active beds in hospitals are indications of specialized manpower, equipment and facilities for th...

Information entropy has been proved to be an effective tool to quantify the structural importance of complex networks. In the previous work (Xu et al, 2016 [31]), we measure the contribution of a path in link prediction with information entropy. In this paper, we further quantify the contribution of a path with both path entropy and path weight, and propose a weighted prediction index based on ...

We explore the use of block entropy as a dynamics classifier for meteorological timeseries data. The block entropy estimates define the entropy growth curve H(L) with respect to word length L. For a finitary process, the entropy growth curve tends to an asymtotic linear regime H(L) = E + hμL, with entropy rate hμ and excess entropy E. These quantities apportion the system’s information content ...

We define correlational ~von Neumann! entropy for an individual quantum state of a system whose timeindependent Hamiltonian contains random parameters and is treated as a member of a statistical ensemble. This entropy is representation independent, and can be calculated as a trace functional of the density matrix which describes the system in its interaction with the noise source. We analyze pe...

we study entanglement and squeezing of a cluster of spin systems under the influence of the two-axis countertwisting hamiltonian. the squeezing parameters given by wineland et al and also by kitagawa et al. are chosen as the criteria of spin squeezing. the criterion of pairwise entanglement is chosen to be the concurrence and that of the bipartite entanglement the linear entropy. we also define...

volumetric techniques were employed to study the adsorption of co2 on a purified multi-wall carbon nanotubes (mwnt’s) sample, as a mesoporous material, at isothermal conditions of 288, 293 and 298 k and pressures ranging from 30 to 150 kpa. langmuir, freundlich and sips equations were used to represent the isotherms. also the parameters of these fitted isotherm models have been determined. the ...
