Determination of the pile capacity is always a major concern for the safe geotechnical engineering design. Different direct and indirect methods have been proposed for determining pile bearing capacity such as static and dynamic approaches. Each method depends on the condition of the soil and type of pile as well as accessibility to necessary information. In this study bearing capacity of drive...

Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) is a specification technique that automatically certifies that all functional requirements are treated properly by source code, through the connection of the textual description of these requirements to automated tests. Given that in some areas, in special Enterprise Information Systems, requirements are identified by Business Process Modeling – which uses grap...

the numerical method presented by safaiy et al. [1] is reformulated with finite volume method in its most general form and tested on non-orthogonal flow problems. navier-stokes equations are solved for the solution of stream function and vorticity. numerical solutions of the driven skewed cavity flow, solved using a fine grid (513×513) mesh, are presented for reynolds number of 100 and 1000 for...

Abstract The factorization method provides a necessary and sufficient condition for characterizing the shape position of an unknown scatterer by using far-field patterns infinitely many time-harmonic plane waves at fixed frequency (which are also called multistatic data response matrix). This paper is concerned with single pattern to recover arbitrary convex polygonal scatterer/source. Its one-...

abstract: since the field of micro electromechanical systems (mems) continues to grow, the flow in micro devices have become an area that receives a significant attention. the microscopic flows are usually characterized by the knudsen number (kn). when the characteristic size of the particle decreases down to a value comparable to the mean free path of the molecules, the continuum assumption fa...

Tracking control of the direct-drive robot manipulators in high-speed is a challenging problem. The Coriolis and centrifugal torques become dominant in the high-speed motion control. The dynamical model of the robotic system including the robot manipulator and actuators is highly nonlinear, heavily coupled, uncertain and computationally extensive in non-companion form. In order to overcome thes...

In this paper, we present a data-driven method for crowd simulation with holonification model. With this extra module, the accuracy of simulation will increase and it generates more realistic behaviors of agents. First, we show how to use the concept of holon in crowd simulation and how effective it is. For this reason, we use simple rules for holonification. Using real-world data, we model the...
