This paper introduces an automatic bond graph design method based on genetic programming for the evolutionary design of micro-resonator. First, the system-level behavioral model is discussed, which based on genetic programming and bond graph. Then, the geometry parameters of components are automatically optimized, by using the genetic algorithm with constraints. To illustrate this approach, a t...

In this paper, a path planner is proposed for a fixed wing micro air vehicle (MAV), in the framework of fuzzy quadtrees. It is shown that a fuzzy version of the quadtree planner is apt for micro air vehicle applications with severe space, power and budgetary constraints. The algorithm can significantly reduce both space and time complexity and still yield an optimal and safe path for the vehicl...

Experimental details Preparation of Fe3O4 micro-spheres The mono-dispersed Fe3O4 micro-spheres were synthesized by a one-pot hydrothermal method. In a typical synthesis, FeCl3.6H2O (0.54 g), sodium citrate (1.2 g), and urea (0.2 g) were dissolved in distilled water (40 mL). Then, PAAS (0.2 g) was added under continuous stirring until it was totally dissolved. The solution was transferred to a 5...

abstract:the general perception of islamic finance is that it prohibits the practice of paying and receiving interest, but islamicfinance is much broader than interest rate prohibition. islamic financial services can be viewed as a set of financialservices which are diversified based on the needs of society.since in the iranian economy most of the enterprises are micro and/or small, micro finan...

a micro-channel heat exchanger reactor with different micro-baffle shapes has been studied numerically. governing equations were solved base on the finite volume method with fluent software. in upper section, oxidation reaction of methanol was occurred and in lower section, steam reforming of methanol was done. two sections were separated with solid part which played as heat exchanger and trans...

We demonstrate an application of a core notion of information theory, typical sequences and their related properties, to analysis of population genetic data. Based on the asymptotic equipartition property (AEP) for nonstationary discrete-time sources producing independent symbols, we introduce the concepts of typical genotypes and population entropy and cross entropy rate. We analyze three pers...

Micro-sensor networks are widely deployed sensor network in typical geographical areas where human intervention is almost impossible. A WSN is a collection of several small energy limited sensors. These devices are autonomous devices performs the job of data collection and forwarding it to the central node called sink node. The observed data can travel through multiple paths to reach sink node....
