This work studies linear elliptic problems under uncertainty. The major emphasis is on the deterministic treatment of such uncertainty. In particular, this work uses the Worst Scenario approach for the characterization of uncertainty on functional outputs (quantities of physical interest). Assuming that the input data belong to a given functional set, eventually infinitely dimensional, we propo...

background: the number of people aged 60 and older is increasing faster than other age groups worldwide. iran will experience a sharp aging population increase in the next decades, and this will pose new challenges to the healthcare system. since providing high quality aged-care services would be the major concern of the policymakers, this question arises that what types of aged care services s...

The paper presents the first ever demographic scenarios for the regions of Russia. Scenarios are developed for 49 ohlusts (regions), six kruys (territories), 21 republics, one autonomous oblast and two national cities, Moscow and St. Petersburg. Five scenarios are considered: two optimistic scenarios, two medium scenarios and one pessimistic scenario. The scenarios are combinations of three mor...

Computational technologies are changing rapidly due to fast and huge demand for computational power for variety of applications, societal factors and advances in science and technology. It is difficult to forecast exact nature of future computational technologies due to multiple and dynamic factors influencing technology advances. The paper focuses on computational technology trend from macro p...

Since the anthropometric and biomechanical parameters role is effective in improving the quality of sports skills, researchers and sports scientists are interesting to identify and communicate between these factors. The purpose of this study was making relationship between some of anthropometrical and biomechanical parameter of girl swimmers in swimming breast strokes. Twenty girl Swimmers (mea...

introduction: in this study, a computer analysis method based on a block matching algorithm is presented to extract the longitudinal movement of the carotid artery wall using consecutive ultrasonic images. a window (block) is selected as the reference block in the first frame and the most similar block to the reference one is found in the subsequent frames. material and methods: the program was...
