following recent works of several authors like huilgol, bhattacharya etd. and javadpour et al., this paper is to contribute further to the literature of axial flow in a rotational coaxial rheometer. we consider axial flow of herschel bulkley mode1 between two concentric cylinders with the inner one rotating, while the outer cylinder is held stationary. an attempt has been made to direct the ana...

Customer activity has received more attention due to the increase of social network applications. Moreover, customer activity could be an answer to the research debate about the significant relationship between retention rate and lifetime profitability of customers. Several researchers believe that an increase in the retention rate of customers may enhance their customer lifetime value (CLV), o...

Finite element (FE) method is extensively employed to investigate the biomechanical behavior of bone structures. Material and morphological information of bone samples are typically provided by computed tomography (CT) scanning. Assuming that density and elasticity of bone are correlated, many studies have proposed different density-elasticity relationships to determine bone elastic constants. ...

A mathematical model that expresses the relationship between Near-infrared light intensity and automatic threshold for automatic kiwifruit surface defect detection was established. By applying different levels of Near-infrared light intensity to machine vision system, 268 images were collected. Then the images were processed with MATLAB using the method to detect kiwifruit defects based on Near...

Performance on number line tasks, typically used as a measure of numerical representations, are reliably related to children's mathematical achievement. However, recent debate has questioned what precisely performance on the number line estimation task measures. Specifically, there has been a suggestion that this task may measure not only numerical representations but also proportional judgment...

Approximate number system (ANS) acuity and mathematical ability have been found to be closely associated in recent studies. However, whether and how these two measures are causally related still remain less addressed. There are two hypotheses about the possible causal relationship: ANS acuity influences mathematical performances, or access to math education sharpens ANS acuity. Evidences in sup...

In this paper power system model is represented in a new domain that relates to Multi-Resolution Analysis (MRA) space. By developing mathematical model of elements in this space using Galerkin method, a new alternative method for power system simulation in nonsinusoidal and periodic conditions is developed. The mathematical formulation and characteristics of new proposed space is expressed. Als...

The mathematical form of the energy-entropy relationship is that of the relationship between the difference and the ratio of any two ‘entities’ x and y creating a geometrical 3D projection x = y · z, i.e., a surface of the shape of a hyperbolic paraboloid being a particular form of a quadric. The significance of this relationship is discussed here in a realm beyond thermodynamics. Somewhat intu...

The mind-body relationship has vexed philosophers of mind for quite a long time. Different theories of mind have offered different points of view about the interaction between the two, but none of them seem free of ambiguities and questions. This paper attempts to use a mathematical model for mind-body relationship. The model may generate some questions to think about this relationship from the...
