analysis of the stresses, displacements, and horizontal strains of the ground subsidence due to underground excavation in rocks can be accomplished by means of a hybridized higher order indirect boundary element/finite difference (be/fd) formulation. a semi-infinite displacement discontinuity field is discretized (numerically) using the cubic displacement discontinuity elements (i.e. each highe...

unsteady flow through non - homogeneous and anisotropic porous media can be modeled by a partial differential equation.' this-equation cannot be solved analytically. hence, numerical methods. such as the finite element and the finite difference methods might be employed. in this study a mathematical model has been developed using the fully implicit finite difference method with control vol...

‎we pursue further our‎ ‎investigation‎, ‎begun in [h.~smith‎, ‎groups with all subgroups subnormal or‎ ‎nilpotent-by-{c}hernikov‎, ‎emph{rend‎. ‎sem‎. ‎mat‎. ‎univ‎. ‎padova}‎ ‎126 (2011)‎, ‎245--253] and continued in [g.~cutolo and h.~smith‎, ‎locally finite groups with all subgroups‎ ‎subnormal or nilpotent-by-{c}hernikov‎. ‎emph{centr‎. ‎eur‎. ‎j‎. ‎math.} (to appear)] ‎‎‎of groups $g$ in w...

we consider the class $mathfrak m$ of $bf r$--modules where $bf r$ is an associative ring. let $a$ be a module over a group ring $bf r$$g$, $g$ be a group and let $mathfrak l(g)$ be the set of all proper subgroups of $g$. we suppose that if $h in mathfrak l(g)$ then $a/c_{a}(h)$ belongs to $mathfrak m$. we investigate an $bf r$$g$--module $a$ such that $g not = g'$, $c_{g}(a) = 1$. we stud...

‎In this paper we prove that a finite group $G$ having at most three‎ ‎conjugacy classes of non-normal non-abelian proper subgroups is‎ ‎always solvable except for $Gcong{rm{A_5}}$‎, ‎which extends Theorem 3.3‎ ‎in [Some sufficient conditions on the number of‎ ‎non-abelian subgroups of a finite group to be solvable‎, ‎Acta Math‎. ‎Sinica (English Series) 27 (2011) 891--896.]‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we s...

‎Let $G$ be a finite group‎. ‎By $MT(G)=(m_1,cdots,m_k)$ we denote the type of‎ ‎conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups of $G$‎, ‎which implies that $G$ has exactly $k$ conjugacy classes of‎ ‎maximal subgroups and $m_1,ldots,m_k$ are the numbers of conjugates‎ ‎of maximal subgroups of $G$‎, ‎where $m_1leqcdotsleq m_k$‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we‎ ‎give some new characterizations of finite groups by ...
