When people estimate a numeric value after judging whether it is larger or smaller than a high or low anchor value (comparative question), estimates are biased in the direction of the anchor. One explanation for this anchoring effect is that people selectively access knowledge consistent with the anchor value as part of a positive test strategy. Two studies (total N = 184) supported the alterna...

People often estimate the average duration of several events (e.g., on average, how long does it take to drive from one's home to his or her office). While there is a great deal of research investigating estimates of duration for a single event, few studies have examined estimates when people must average across numerous stimuli or events. The current studies were designed to fill this gap by e...

In this paper, we consider the fuzzy fixed-charge transportation problem (FFCTP). Both of fixed and transportation cost are fuzzy numbers. Contrary to previous works, Electromagnetism-like Algorithms (EM) is firstly proposed in this research area to solve the problem. Three types of EM; original EM, revised EM, and hybrid EM are firstly employed for the given problem. The latter is being firstl...

We revisit the Hybrid scheme proposed by Bennedsen et al. (2017) for numerical simulations of Brownian semistationary processes, and propose a Refinement Reducing Reusing random numbers (3R scheme). The key idea is to reuse variables through orthogonal projections. An application analysis rough Bergomi model also given.

the fluid flow and heat transfer in lid-driven enclosures filled with cu-water nanofluid is numerically investigated. the moving vertical walls of the enclosure  are maintained in a constant temperature, while the horizontal walls are insulated. the hybrid scheme is used to discretize the convection terms and simpler algorithm is adopted to couple the velocity field and pressure in the momentum...

the fluid flow and heat transfer in a three-dimensional microchannel filled with al2o3- water nanofluid is numerically investigated. the hybrid scheme is used to discretize the convection terms and simpler algorithm is adopted to couple the velocity and pressure field in the momentum equations. the thermal and flow fields were analyzed using different volume fractions of nanoparticles and diffe...
