T he study seeks to investigate both linear and nonlinear effects of oil price movement on critical macroeconomic variables (output, price and exchange rate) in Nigeria using ARDL modeling approach. Previous studies substantially relied on linear methods using VAR approach to unravel this links without a clear conclusion. In an attempt to seek better results in this study, we employ both l...

many studies have been conducted focusing on the effects of friction coefficient or texture depth on the highway accident risk. however, combined effects of these parameters have not been still addressed. in this research the interaction between friction coefficient, texture depth and accident rate in 30 freeway sections were examined. the accident data were gathered and an apparatus was design...

In the present work, effect of von Karman geometric nonlinearity on the vibration characteristics of a Y-shaped single walled carbon nanotube (Y-SWCNT) conveying viscose fluid is investigated based on Euler Bernoulli beam (EBB) model. The Y-SWCNT is also subjected to a longitudinal magnetic field which produces Lorentz force in transverse direction. In order to consider the small scale effects,...

it has been pointed out the static lateral response procedure for a base-isolated structure proposed in international building code (ibc) somewhat overestimates the seismic story force. that is why in the current paper, vertical distribution of base shear over the height of isolated structures considering higher mode effects under near field earthquakes is investigated. nonlinear behavior of is...

this paper considers a class of one-dimensional solidification problem in which kinetic undercooling is incorporated into the temperature condition at the interface. a model problem with nonlinear kinetic law is considered. the main result is an existence theorem. the mathematical effects of the kinetic term are discussed

this work concerns the peristaltic flow of a williamson fluid model in an inclined asymmetric channel under combined effects of heat and mass transfer. the governing nonlinear partial differential equations are simplified under the lubrication approach and then solved analytically and numerically. the analytical results are computed with the help of regular perturbation and the numerical result...
