a 2-d heat conduction model has been solved by using the adomian decomposition method topredict the transient temperature and heat flux distribution in a thick solid that is irradiated by a laser source.the laser source may operate in a continuous wave (cw) mode or repeated pulse (rp) mode and may havearbitrary, spatial and temporal profiles.a generalized solution containing five-terms approxim...

the task of balancing of assembly lines is well-known in mass production system but this problem is np-hard even for the simple straight line. therefore, utilizing heuristic methods for these problems is totally unquestionable. furthermore, in line with balancing problems, heuristic methods are the foundation of the metaheuristic methods, thus it seems to be necessary to use more efficient heur...

aim: using short text messages (sms) is the easiest and cheapest method of healtheducation programs in order to increase women’s’ knowledge and early detection ofdiseases. this study was conducted in 2013 in order to compare the educational effect ofbreast self examination (bse) by two different methods of sms and lecturing in femalestudents who work and study in non- medical fields.method: in ...

in recent years, numerous approaches have been applied for finding the solutions of functional equations. one of them is the optimal homotopy asymptotic method. in current paper, this method has been applied for obtaining the approximate solution of fisher equation. the reliability of the method will be shown by solving some examples of various kinds and comparing the obtained outcomes with the ...

mhd boundary layer flow of two phase model nanofluid over a vertical plate is investigated both analytically and numerically. a system of governing nonlinear partial differential equations is converted into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by suitable similarity transformations and then solved analytically using homotopy analysis method and numerically by the fourth order rung...

ultimate limits of an open pit, which define its size and shape at the end of the mine’s life, is the pit with the highest profit value. a number of algorithms such as floating or moving cone method, floating cone method ii and the corrected forms of this method, the korobov algorithm and the corrected form of this method, dynamic programming and the lerchs and grossmann algorithm based on grap...

in this paper, the (m+1)-step adams-bashforth, adams-moulton, and predictor-correctormethods are used to solve rst-order linear fuzzy ordinary dierential equations. the conceptsof fuzzy interpolation and generalised strongly dierentiability are used, to obtaingeneral algorithms. each of these algorithms has advantages over current methods. moreover,for each algorithm a convergence formula can b...

Nowadays, numerical models have great importance in every field of science, especially for solving the nonlinear differential equations, partial differential equations, biochemical reactions, etc. The total time evolution of the reactant concentrations in the basic enzyme-substrate reaction is simulated by the Runge-Kutta of order four (RK4) and by nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) method. A...
