In quantum theory Hamilton operators with spininteractions have a long history [1 – 5]. Triple spin interaction have been studied by several authors [6 – 19]. Iglói [6] investigated an Ising model with three-spin interaction by finite-size scaling and applying free boundary conditions. Vanderzande and Iglói [7] studied the critical behaviour and logarithmic corrections of a quantum model with t...

in recent years, decrease in depth of uromia lake, has resulted in higher increase of salinity threat in agricultural lands around the lake. the aims of this study were 1- investigation of the spatial changes in soil salinity using the bayesian maximum entropy method (bme); 2- prediction of the boundary between saline and agricultural lands; and 3- assessment of the uncertainty involved with sa...

Available constraints on metamorphic reaction rates derived from the study of natural systems are similar to, or slightly lower than, the bulk strain rates measured in the same rocks. Here, we explore whether this apparent relationship is merely coincidence or due to a more fundamental mechanistic link between reaction and strain. Grain boundary migration accommodated dislocation creep (GBMDC) ...

In this paper we introduce a tool which is capable of verifying an 1149.1 test logic implementation and its compliance to the IEEE 1149.1 Standard [1][2] while providing a precise list of errors as well as good debug and diagnostic information using graphical analysis. The paper provides a review of the methods used to perform the logic verification. We introduce an efficient technique for veri...

Preconditioned iterative solution methods are compared with the direct Gaussian elimination method to solve dense linear systems Ax = b which originate from crack propagation problems, modeled and discretized by boundary element (BEM) techniques. Numerical experiments are presented and compared with the direct solution method available in a commercial BEM package. The experiments show that the ...

This paper is concerned with the first crossing of an order statistic point process through general moving boundaries. Our purpose is to determine exact boundary crossing probabilities in both one and two boundary cases. Simple recursive methods are obtained that exploit an underlying algebraic structure of polynomial type. This structure is a direct consequence of the order statistic property....

This paper proves sharp inequalities for the frequencies of vibration of strings and cylindrical membranes, under either fixed or fixed-free boundary conditions. We establish such inequalities also on the "generalized" cylinder, which is the cross-product of an interval with a homogeneous Riemannian manifold. The goal is to better understand the effect that inhomogeneities in the mass distribut...

Controllability properties of a partial di erential equation (PDE) model describing a thermoelastic plate are studied. The PDE is comprised of a Kircho plate equation coupled to a heat equation on a bounded domain, with the coupling taking place on the interior and boundary of the domain. The coupling in this PDE is parameterized by > 0. Boundary control is exerted through the (two) free bounda...

Wetlands as water resources have a special place in the semi-arid plateau of Iran and boundary determination is necessary for their effective conservation and conflict resolution among stakeholders that are dependent on these resources. Determination of the wetland boundaries should be commensurate with environmental features affecting on it which normally extend beyond water extent. Ecological...

In this paper, a modification on the fixed grid finite element method is presented and used in the solution of 2D linear elastic problems. This method uses non-boundary-fitted meshes for the numerical solution of partial differential equations. Special techniques are required to apply boundary conditions on the intersection of domain boundaries and non-boundary-fitted elements. Hence, a new met...
