afinite element model is developed for simulation of the curing process of a thick axisymmetric rubber article reinforced by metal plates during the molding and cooling stages. the model consists of the heat transfer equation and a newly developed kinetics model for the determination of the state of cure in the rubber. the latter is based on the modification of the well-known kamal-sourour mode...

in this contribution, two approaches are followed to predict the saturated liquid density of liquefied natural gas (lng) mixtures. in one approach, 12 cubic equations of state (eoss), comprising the popular peng-robinson (pr) and redlich-kwong-soave (rks), are employed to predict the saturated liquid density of 20 lng mixtures. in the other approach, these eos are used in conjunction with a rec...

this paper has been devoted to apply the reconstruction of variational iteration method (rvim) to handle the systems of integro-differential equations. rvim has been induced with laplace transform from the variational iteration method (vim) which was developed from the inokuti method. actually, rvim overcome to shortcoming of vim method to determine the lagrange multiplier. so that, rvim method...

in this paper, using the tools involving measures of noncompactness and darbo fixed point theorem forcondensing operator, we study the existence of solutions for a large class of generalized nonlinear quadraticfunctional integral equations. also, we show that solutions of these integral equations are locally attractive.furthermore, we present an example to show the efficiency and usefulness of ...

The binary states, i.e., success or failed state assumptions used in conventional reliability are inappropriate for reliability analysis of complex industrial systems due to lack of sufficient probabilistic information. For large complex systems, the uncertainty of each individual parameter enhances the uncertainty of the system reliability. In this paper, the concept of fuzzy reliability...
