This work indicates a numerical study on the laminar heat transfer mixed convection in a square cavity with two openings (an inlet and an outlet) on vertical walls through which nanofluid flows. Two flow directions are examined: i) ascending flow which enters the bottom opening and exits the upper opening; ii) descending flow which enters the upper opening and exits the bottom opening. The asce...

Purpose: To explore the feasibility of using multi-method and mixed-method in research studies by reviewing comparing both methods. Design / Method Approach: Using literature, historical background on mixed-methods multiple-methods design principles are collected applied this paper a systematic review format. Findings: The major finding from is that incorporating quantitative qualitative data f...

Abstract. The mathematical model for semiconductor devices in three space dimensions are numerically discretized. The system consists of three quasi-linear partial differential equations about three physical variables: the electrostatic potential, the electron concentration and the hole concentration. We use standard mixed finite element method to approximate the elliptic electrostatic potentia...

Results from a triple-blind mixed-method user study into the effectiveness of mixed-initiative tools for procedural generation game levels are presented. A tool which generates using interactive evolutionary optimisation was designed this (a) is focused on supporting designer to explore design space and (b) only requires interact with it by designing levels. The identifies level patterns in an ...

In this paper, we present the preconditioned mixed-type splitting iterative method for solving the linear systems, Ax = b, where A is a Z-matrix. And we give some comparison theorems to show that the convergence rate of the preconditioned mixed-type splitting iterative method is faster than that of the mixed-type splitting iterative method. Finally, we give a numerical example to illustrate our...
