Motivated by recent best case analyses for some sorting algorithms and based on the type of complexity we partition the algorithms into two classes: homogeneous and non-homogeneous algorithms.1 Although both classes contain algorithms with worst and best cases, homogeneous algorithms behave uniformly on all instances. This partition clarifies in a completely mathematical way the previously ment...

In the present paper, effect of initial stresses on the propagation of Love waves has been investigated in a fluid saturated, anisotropic, porous layer lying in welded contact over a prestressed, non-homogeneous elastic half space. The dispersion equation of phase velocity has been derived. It has been found that the phase velocity of Love waves is considerably influenced by porosity and anisot...

The relationship between velocity of chemical reactions with activities or concentrations of their reactants, temperature and pressure and the mechanisms through which the reactions proceed are of interest to many scientists and engineers. The purpose of this article is to introduce a computer software that is developed for calculation, classification and collection of such data. The applicatio...

unsteady flow through non - homogeneous and anisotropic porous media can be modeled by a partial differential equation.' this-equation cannot be solved analytically. hence, numerical methods. such as the finite element and the finite difference methods might be employed. in this study a mathematical model has been developed using the fully implicit finite difference method with control vol...

in the present work, a hybrid of fourier transform and homotopy perturbation method is developed for solving the non-homogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficients. the fourier transform is employed with combination of homotopy perturbation method (hpm), the so called fourier transform homotopy perturbation method (fthpm) to solve the partial differential equations. the c...

In this paper we show how bidirectional path tracing can be extended to handle global illumination effects due to participating media. The resulting image-based algorithm is computationally expensive but more versatile than previous solutions. It correctly handles multiple scattering in non-homogeneous, anisotropic media in complex illumination situations. We illustrate its specific advantages ...
