in this paper, a method based on binary-coded genetic algorithm is proposed to explore an optimization method, for obtaining an optimal elliptical tank. this optimization method enhances the rollover threshold of a tank vehicle, especially under partial filling conditions. minimizing the overturning moment imposed on the vehicle due to c.g. height of the liquid load, lateral acceleration and ca...

When the crisscross baffles and logarithmic spiral baffles are placed on the bottom of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom, using CFD software FLUENT simulates the velocity field of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom and bottom baffles. Compare the velocity field of stirred tank with bottom crisscross baffle to the velocity field of stirred tank without bottom baffle and analysis the flow ...

Scour is a phenomenon that occurs as a result of natural erosion by ground water flow and transport of seabed material. In this research, scour around the legs of marine structures is simulated using the FLOW3D.V.9.3™ commercial software. The general scour model consists of two components, namely, the lift and thrust forces. The drag force, that is inserted to the structure, is a combination of...

Let S be a set of n points in Rd in general position. A set H of k-flats is called an mk-stabber of S if the relative interior of any m-simplex with vertices in S is intersected by at least one element of H. In this paper we give lower and upper bounds on the size of minimum mk-stabbers of point sets in Rd and in general position. We study mainly mk-stabbers in the plane and in R3.

Quentin Skinner is an intellectual historian known for his pioneering work on early-modern European political thought. He was educated at Bedford School and Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge. Author of such works as The Foundations of Modern Political Thought (1978) and Visions of Politics (2002) he served as the Regius Professor of History at the University of Cambridge, and currently as t...

Elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) are new generations of public key cryptosystems that have a smaller key size for the same level of security. The exponentiation on elliptic curve is the most important operation in ECC, so when the ECC is put into practice, the major problem is how to enhance the speed of the exponentiation. It is thus of great interest to develop algorithms for exponentiation...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we propose some Diffie-Hellman type key exchange protocols using isogenies of elliptic curves‎. ‎The first method which uses the endomorphism ring of an ordinary elliptic curve $ E $‎, ‎is a straightforward generalization of elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman key exchange‎. ‎The method uses commutativity of the endomorphism ring $ End(E) $‎. ‎Then using dual isogenies‎, ‎we propose...

Štúdium viazania stopových prvkov v sedimente vodnej nádrže Ružín Pre účely posúdenia možnosti využitia fyzikálnych a fyzikálno-chemických metód separácie, vybraná vzorka sedimentu z Ružína bola podrobené 5-stupňovej procedúre sekvenčnej extrakcie (SE) podľa Tessiera (Tessier et al., 1979) a Horowitza (Horowitz, 1991). Vo výluhoch bolo stanovované zastúpenie konštitučných (Fe, Mn, Ca a Mg) ako ...

Thirty-five years ago, B.F. Skinner (1976) lamented a decreasing trend in the prevalence of cumulative records in the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior ( JEAB). The editorial began with the two memorable lines, ‘‘Evidently we have not long to wait for an issue of JEAB without a single cumulative record! I shall not miss the records so much as the kinds of experiments that could s...
