Modeling of Wind Effects on Stratified Flows in Open Channels: A Model for the Istanbul Strait (Bosphorus)
(2016)
Stratified flows in open channels arise as a result of density or surface level differences. If the channel is connected to a basin at one or both ends, strong winds originating from the basin cause the "wind setup" effect ...
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 ...
On the uniqueness of the octonionic instanton solution on conformally flat 8-manifolds
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2016)
Let M be an 8-manifold and E be an SO(8) bundle on M. In a previous paper [F. Ozdemir and A.H. Bilge, "Self-duality in dimensions 2n > 4: equivalence of various definitions and the derivation of the octonionic instanton ...
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 ...
Self-duality in higher dimensions
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017)
Let w be a 2-form on a 2n dimensional manifold. In previous work, we called w "strong self-dual, if the eigenvalues of its matrix with respect to an orthonormal frame are equal in absolute value. In a series of papers, we ...
A mathematical characterization of the gel point in sol-gel transition
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2015)
We model the sol-gel transition in terms of Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR) models and compare with experimental results. We show, numerically, that the "gel point" described ...
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 ...
Maximal linear subspaces of strong self-dual 2-forms and the Bonan 4-form
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2011)
The notion of self-duality of 2-forms in 4-dimensions plays an eminent role in many areas of mathematics and physics, but although the 2-forms have a genuine meaning related to curvature and gauge-field-strength in higher ...
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 ...
