A method for enclosing matrix polynomials is proposed. This method is applicable when the matrix is diagonalizable and supplies an interval matrix including the matrix polynomial. The computational cost of this method does not depend on the degree of the polynomial. Hence the proposed method is faster than previous approaches when the degree is large. Numerical results show the properties of th...

Bangladesh has extensive floodplain wetlands covering over 4 million ha. These remain an important source of livelihood fish contribute about 60% of national animal protein consumption, and wetland plants are used for fodder, food and construction. Over fishing, short term leasing of use rights, flood control and drainage, and pollution all have negative impacts. In contrast several projects ha...

Abstract – This paper investigates overvoltages on the SF6 substation enclosure caused by the switching operation of the interrupter. The paper analyzes the amplitude and the overvoltage duration on the substation enclosure. Switching overvoltages take part in the everyday drive of HV substations and constitute an undesired phenomenon that may often, beside transient disturbances, lead to undes...

Natural convective laminar flow is numerically investigated in a two-dimensional and square enclosure at various angles of inclination respect to horizontal. Two adjacent walls of the enclosure are insulated and the other two are kept at different temperatures. The influence of Rayleigh number representing the effects due to the differential heating of the enclosure walls as well as the effect ...

Limit cycles can occur when navigating unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) using behavior-based algorithms. Limit cycles occur when the robot is navigating towards the goal but enters an enclosure that has its opening in a direction opposite to the goal. The robot then becomes effectively trapped in the enclosure. This paper reports a solution to the limit cycle problem for robot navigation in very...

This paper presents a numerical study of natural convection within a wavy enclosure heated via corner heating. The considered enclosure is a square enclosure with left wavy side wall. The vertical wavy wall of the enclosure and both of the corner heaters are maintained at constant temperature, T c and T h , respectively, with T h > T c while the remaining horizontal, bottom, top and side walls ...

In this investigation, the effects of enclosure, restal delayed grazing andcontinued grazing treatments on the production rate and vegetation cover were studied.Study area was SadrAbad pasture. After selecting three bands (1+1+1=3 hectare area) asthree treatments in the restricted and non restricted area, they were transected to threetransects. Then plots (1×2m2 ) were selected to measure the p...

for the scientific and accurate management of rangeland ecosystems, having information about ecosystem as indicators of ecosystem health and function is needed. the aim of this research is to study the effects of grazing on soil surface indicators and rangeland functional properties by using landscape functional analysis (lfa) method. for this purpose, the present study was conducted in two reg...

In this study free convection flow and heat transfer of a fluid inside a tilted square enclosure having heat conducting and generating solid body positioned in the center of the enclosure with various thermal boundary conditions has been investigated numerically. The governing equations are transformed into non-dimensional form and the resulting partial differential equations are solved by Fini...

Natural convection heat transfer has many applications in different fields of industry; such as cooling industries, electronic transformer devices and ventilation equipment; due to simple process, economic advantage, low noise and renewed retrieval. Recently, heat transfer of nanofluids have been considered because of higher thermal conductivity coefficient compared with those of ordinary fluid...
