a class of new methods based on a septic non-polynomial spline function for the numerical solution of problems in calculus of variations is presented. the local truncation errors and the methods of order 2th, 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, and 12th, are obtained. the inverse of some band matrixes are obtained which are required in proving the convergence analysis of the presented method. convergence anal...

A recent variation of the classical geodetic problem, the strong geodetic problem, is defined as follows. If G is a graph, then sg(G) is the cardinality of a smallest vertex subset S, such that one can assign a fixed geodesic to each pair {x, y} ⊆ S so that these (|S| 2 ) geodesics cover all the vertices of G. In this paper, the strong geodetic problem is studied on Cartesian product graphs. A ...

The warden meets with 23 new prisoners when they arrive. He tells them, “You may meet today and plan a strategy. But after today, you will be in isolated cells and will have no communication with one another. “In the prison is a switch room, which contains two light switches labeled A and B, each of which can be in either the on or the off position. I am not telling you their present positions....

the present research proposes and optimizes the performance of a novel solar-driven combined cooling, heating, and power (cchp) kalina system for two seasons—winter and summer—based on exergy, exergo-economic, and exergo-environmental concepts applying a non-dominated sort genetic algorithm-ii (nsga-ii) technique. three criteria, i.e. daily exergy efficiency, total product cost rate, and total ...
