Abstract The linear multiregression dynamic model (LMDM) is a Bayesian dynamic model which preserves any conditional independence and causal structure across a multivariate time series. The conditional independence structure is used to model the multivariate series by separate (conditional) univariate dynamic linear models, where each series has contemporaneous variables as regressors in its mo...

CFRP composites have unique application qualities such as high resistance and durability to environmental conditions, having relatively low weight and easy to install in strengthening concrete structure elements. The brackets should be strengthen sufficiently if they are not calculated and implemented well. Application of the CFRP is one of the methods for such purposes. The study involves usin...

In the present paper, the focus is on the evaluation of steel dual-system frame buildings using four main types of structural analysis (Linear Static, Linear Dynamic, Nonlinear Static and Nonlinear Dynamic Analyses) with regard to "Seismic Rehabilitation Code for Existing Buildings in Iran" (based on FEMA 273 and 356) where the first two authors of the article tend to follow the previous work (...

This paper describes a procedure to obtain an improved linear design model for Wave Filtering (WF) and Dynamic Positioning (DP) of ships and offshore rigs subjected to the influence of sea waves. The proposed model captures the main physics of the problem and allows for the design of advanced control and estimation algorithms to solve the WF and DP problems. Numerical simulations, carried out u...

this paper shows the role of the general dynamic model in empirical research of production technology in agriculture. the model is a first order autoregressive multivariate specification, first developed by anderson and blundell. this model is general enough to nest several simpler dynamic as well as static models within it. therefore, it provides a framework for applying classical testing ...

middle east is a strategic region because of its abundant oil reserves, hostile struggles among the countries, and threat of the radical groups. the countries of this region spend a large amount of their annual budgets on buying weapons and war armaments. the purpose of this paper is to study the impact of military expenditures on economic growth of oil and non-oil middle east countries by a dy...

In the present work, a mathematical model is developed and analyzed to study the influence of nanoparticle concentration through Brownian motion and thermophoresis diffusion. The governing system of PDEs is transformed into a coupled non-linear ODEs by using suitable variables. The converted equations are then solved by using robust shooting method with the help of MATLAB (bvp4c). The impacts o...

application of granular activated carbon (gac) in adsorption process has been studied for the advanced treatment of municipal and industrial wastewater. because of entering poisonous compounds such as furfural, phenol and sulfides into the oily wastewater of tehran refinery, biological aeration basins of wastewater treatment unit may not have the desired performance of cod reduction. in this st...
