We live in a very complex world where we face complex phenomena such as social norms and new technologies. To deal with such phenomena, social scientists often use reductionism approach where they reduce them to some lower-lever variables and model the relationships among them through a scheme of equations. This approach that is called equation based modeling (EBM) has some basic weaknesses in ...

Abstract It is well known that sulfonamide derivatives, through exchange of different functional groups without modification the –S(O) 2 N(H)– function, can exhibit a wide variety pharmacological activities. In addition, some metal complexes these ligands have been prepared to promote rapid healing burns in humans and animals, for example, complex Zn( ii ) sulfadiazine. Their effectiveness does...

the complex-step derivative approximation is applied to compute numerical derivatives. in this study, we propose a new formula of fractional complex-step method utilizing jumarie definition. based on this method, we illustrated an approximate analytic solution for the fractional cauchy-euler equations. application in image denoising is imposed by introducing a new fractional mask depending on s...

The objective of the current paper is to present an intelligent system for complex process monitoring, based on artificial intelligence technologies. This system aims to realize with success all the complex process monitoring tasks that are: detection, diagnosis, identification and reconfiguration. For this purpose, the development of a multi-agent system that combines multiple intelligences su...

an iodide ion-selective pvc membrane sensor based on copper (π)-bis-nphenilsalicyldenaminatocomplex as a novel sensing material is successfully developed. theelectrode showed a good selectivity for iodide ion with respect to common inorganic anions. thesensor exhibited a good linear response with slope of _58.6 ± 0.4 mv per decade over theconcentration range of 5.0 × 10-6 to 1.0 × 10-1 mol l-1,...
