In recent years several fixed point theorems for hybrid pairs of mappings are proved and by now there exists considerable literature in this direction. To mention a few, one can cite Imdad and Ahmad [10], Pathak [19], Popa [20] and references cited therein. On the other hand Assad and Kirk [4] gave a sufficient condition enunciating fixed point of set-valued mappings enjoying specific boundary ...

The design of thin-walled cylinders in axial compression is limited by sensitivity to geometric imperfections. This paper focuses on reducing this imperfection from a perspective. By using variable-angle composites, the load paths are tailored reduce effective area over which imperfections can initiate buckling. Continuous Tow Shearing (CTS) one such manufacturing technique. It does not cause d...

Over the last two years, research conducted at the NCAUR in Peoria, IL, in conjunction with The Ohio State University (Khan et al, 1998a; Khan et al., 1998b; Khan et al., 1999a; Khan et al., 1999b; Schisler et al., 1999a; Schisler et al., 1999b), has culminated in the isolation, screening and identification of several putative biological control agents for suppression of FHB. This update provid...

Holte, R., L. Rosier, I. Tulchinsky and D. Varvel, Pinwheel scheduling with two distinct numbers, Theoretical Computer Science 100 (1992) 1055135. “The Pinwheel” is a real-time scheduling problem based on a problem in scheduling satellite ground stations but which also addresses scheduling preventive maintenance. Given a multiset of positive integers A = {aI, a,, _.., a,}, a schedule S for A is...

Many seabirds die each year after exposure to petroleum hydrocarbons (Piatt and Lensink 1990; Khan and Ryan 1991). Crude oil, following ingestion, induces hemolytic anemia which occurs 4 to 5 d later (Leighton et al. 1983). A recent study reported the presence of hemosiderin in the liver of common murres (Uria aalge) at intervals up to 42 d after oil-contamination (Khan and Ryan 1991). Hemoside...

INTRODUCTION There are many opportunities for nurses to assist improving patient's ex-perience of cancer. In fact, in every stage of cancer process, nurses can provide the re-quired and necessary cares and supports by representing substantial caring behaviors. Thus, by identifying and understanding the importance of caring behaviors which led to nurse-patient effective interactions, nurses woul...

A stochastic forming simulation procedure is developed and implemented to investigate the effect of geometric variability in pre-impregnated woven textiles on manufacturing. Image analysis is used to characterise variability in tow directions and unit cell size in a pre-impregnated carbon/epoxy satin weave textile. It is found that variab ility in tow orientations is significant, whereas variab...

having a look at the history of iran, one can realize that, the foundation of governorship in this country was based on two factors, religious belief and tradition, as the safavids came to power according to the former category and ruled for more than two centuries. the fall of the safavid dynasty not only ended their ruling, but decreased their holiness drastically. therefore, from then on the...
