in this study, the performance of an irreversible regenerative brayton cycle is sought through power maximizations using finite-time thermodynamic concept in finite-size components. optimizations are performed using a genetic algorithm. in order to take into account the finite-time and finite-size concepts in the current problem, a dimensionless mass-flow rate parameter is used to deploy time v...

A finite switchboard state machine is a specialized finite state machine. It is built by binding the concepts of switching state machines and commutative state machines. The main purpose of this paper is to give a specific algorithm for fuzzy finite switchboard state machine and also, investigates the concepts of switching relation, covering, restricted cascade products and wreath products of f...

Displacement finite element models of various beam theories have been developed using traditional finite element interpolations (i.e., Hermite cubic or equi-spaced Lagrange functions). Various finite element models of beams differ from each other in the choice of the interpolation functions used for the transverse deflection w, total rotation φ and/or shear strain γxz, or in the integral form u...

a non-linear finite element model could be a useful tool in the development of a method of predicting soil pressure-sinkage behaviour, and can be used to investigate and analyze soil compaction. this study was undertaken to emphasize that the finite element method (fem) is a proper technique to model soil pressure-sinkage behaviour. for this purpose, the finite element method was used to model ...

this article introduces a systematic study for computational aspects of classical wavelet transforms over finite fields using tools from computational harmonic analysis and also theoretical linear algebra. we present a concrete formulation for the frobenius norm of the classical wavelet transforms over finite fields. it is shown that each vector defined over a finite field can be represented as...

this paper gives a short survey of some of the known results generalizing the theorem, credited to i. schur, that if the central factor group is finite then the derived subgroup is also finite.

‎This article presents a systematic study for structure of finite wavelet frames‎ ‎over prime fields‎. ‎Let $p$ be a positive prime integer and $mathbb{W}_p$‎ ‎be the finite wavelet group over the prime field $mathbb{Z}_p$‎. ‎We study theoretical frame aspects of finite wavelet systems generated by‎ ‎subgroups of the finite wavelet group $mathbb{W}_p$.

The urea and guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCI) unfolding of sperm whale ferrimyoglobin and of horse ferrimyoglobin has been studied under equilibrium conditions at both neutral and acid pH. Using two spectral parameters (the Soret absorbance and the molar ellipticity at 222 nm) to monitor conformational equilibria, and various thermodynamic treatments of the resulting data, it was found that the ...

the transport of dissolved contaminants in groundwater is usually described by the advectiondispersion equation with reaction. several numerical methods for solving the one-dimensional are availableincluding finite difference methods, finite volume methods, and finite element methods. stringent conditions,such as small peclet (pe) and courant (cr) numbers, must be satisfied to ensure the accura...
