The recognition and the calculation of all branches of solutions of the nonlinear boundary value problems is difficult obviously. The complexity of this issue goes back to the being nonlinearity of the problem. Regarding this matter, this paper considers steady state reactive transport model which does not have exact closed-form solution and discovers existence of dual or triple solutions in so...

In this study, colorimetric calibration of scanner has been done via perceptron neural network with three or four layers by back propagation algorithm for colored polyester fabrics. The results obtained for random training samples are not satisfactory but application of selective training samples for L*a*b* or RGB leads to good results, with better results obtained for the L*a*b* method. On the...

Abstract A Falling Weight Deflectometer is popular equipment to measure surface deflections under imposed loadings, providing the necessary parameters for back-calculating elastic moduli of road pavements. There are several back-calculation programs available that accurately back-calculate pavement layer moduli. The Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA), a metaheuristic optimization algorithm in...

We present a concise review of the recent theoretical progress concerning the standard model calculation of the inclusive radiative B̄ → Xsγ decay. Particular attention is thereby devoted to the calculations of the next-to-next-to-leading order fixed-order O(αs) contributions, non-local O(αsΛ/mb) power corrections, and logarithmic-enhanced O(αs) cut-effects to the decay rate. The current status ...
