This paper discusses the preservation of some stochastic orders between two interdependent series and parallel systems when the survival and distribution functions of all components switch to the exponentiated model. For the series systems, the likelihood ratio, hazard rate, usual, aging faster, aging intensity, convex transform, star, superadditive and dispersive orderings, and for the paralle...

soil slopes are sometimes curved in plan rather than being straight. this curvature,especially when it is convex, decreases the bearing capacity of the slope. finite element methodhas been used here in this research to investigate the reducing effect of curvature on bearingcapacity of a slope. failure of soil has been assumed to be according to mohr-coulomb criteria;but the flow rule of the soi...

let $g=(v,e)$ be a simple graph. a set $dsubseteq v$ is adominating set of $g$ if every vertex in $vsetminus d$ has atleast one neighbor in $d$. the distance $d_g(u,v)$ between twovertices $u$ and $v$ is the length of a shortest $(u,v)$-path in$g$. an $(u,v)$-path of length $d_g(u,v)$ is called an$(u,v)$-geodesic. a set $xsubseteq v$ is convex in $g$ ifvertices from all $(a, b)$-geodesics belon...

In this paper, we first characterize the convex $L$-subgroup of an $L$-ordered group by means of fourkinds of cut sets of an $L$-subset. Then we consider the homomorphic preimages and the product of convex $L$-subgroups.After that, we introduce an $L$-convex structure constructed by convex $L$-subgroups.Furthermore, the notion of the degree to which an $L$-subset of an $L$-ord...

‎let $x$ be a real normed  space, then  $c(subseteq x)$  is  functionally  convex  (briefly, $f$-convex), if  $t(c)subseteq bbb r $ is  convex for all bounded linear transformations $tin b(x,r)$; and $k(subseteq x)$  is  functionally   closed (briefly, $f$-closed), if  $t(k)subseteq bbb r $ is  closed  for all bounded linear transformations $tin b(x,r)$. we improve the    krein-milman theorem  ...

In this paper,  fuzzy convergence theory in the framework of $L$-convex spaces is introduced. Firstly, the concept of $L$-convex remote-neighborhood spaces is introduced and it is shown that the  resulting category is isomorphic to that of $L$-convex spaces. Secondly, by means of $L$-convex ideals, the notion of $L$-convergence spaces is introduced and it is proved that the  category of $L$-con...

in this paper, the concept of fuzzy convex subgroup (resp. fuzzy convex lattice-ordered subgroup) of an ordered group (resp. lattice-ordered group) is introduced and some properties, characterizations and related results are given. also, the fuzzy convex subgroup (resp. fuzzy convex lattice-ordered subgroup) generated by a fuzzy subgroup (resp. fuzzy subsemigroup) is characterized. furthermore,...
