Development of a parallel 3D navier–stokes solver for sediment transport calculations in channels
(MDPI AG, 2020)
We propose a method to parallelize a 3D incompressible Navier–Stokes solver that uses a fully implicit fractional-step method to simulate sediment transport in prismatic channels. The governing equations are transformed ...
An equivalence class decomposition of finite metric spaces via Gromov products
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017)
Let (X, d) be a finite metric space with elements P-i, i = 1,..., n and with the distance functions d(ij) The Gromov Product of the "triangle" (P-i, P-j, P-k) with vertices P-t, P-j and P-k at the vertex Pi is defined by ...
Application of epidemic models to phase transitions
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012)
The Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Recovered (SEIR) models describe the spread of epidemics in a society. In the typical case, the ratio of the susceptible individuals fall from a ...
A 'Regional Energy Hub' for achieving a low-carbon energy transition
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018)
The transition to a low-carbon energy economy will remain a cornerstone of national energy policies of countries committed to the climate change accord for decades to come. We think that transmission investment is one key ...
A hesitant fuzzy linguistic terms set-based AHP-TOPSIS approach to evaluate ERP software packages
(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2020)
Purpose In this paper, two popular multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods with hesitant fuzzy logic approach; hesitant fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (hesitant F-AHP) and hesitant fuzzy the technique for order ...
On the Classification of Fifth Order Quasi-linear Non-constant Separant Scalar Evolution Equations of the KdV-Type
(Physical Soc Japan, 2012)
Fifth order, quasi-linear, non-constant separant evolution equations are of the form u(t) = A(partial derivative(5)u/partial derivative x(5)) + (B) over tilde, where A and (B) over tilde are functions of x, t, u and of the ...
A memetic random-key genetic algorithm for a symmetric multi-objective traveling salesman problem
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2008)
This paper proposes a methodology to find weakly Pareto optimal solutions to a symmetric multi-objective traveling salesman problem using a memetic random-key genetic algorithm that has been augmented by a 2-opt local ...
A heuristic approach for allocation of data to RFID tags: A data allocation knapsack problem (DAKP)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012)
Durable products and their components are increasingly being equipped with one of several forms of automatic identification technology such as radio frequency identification (RFID). This technology enables data collection, ...
An Intelligent Approach For The Evaluation Of Transformers In A Power Distribution Project
(IOS Press BV, 2020)
In this study, a hybrid approach is presented for the evaluation and selection of transformers in a power distribution project. Ranking transformers and selecting the best among alternatives is a complex multiple criteria ...
A MATHEMATICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE CRITICAL POINT IN PHASE TRANSITIONS
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2013)
Let y(x) be a smooth sigmoidal curve, y((n)) be its nth derivative and {x(m,i)} and {x(a,i)}, i = 1, 2, ... , be the set of points where respectively the derivatives of odd and even order reach their extreme values. We ...
