( International Scientific Research Publications , 2016 , Article)The aim of this paper is to present some coincidence point results and common fixed points for pair of self-mappings satisfying generalized contractive condition in the framework of b-metric spaces endowed with a graph. ... -
Stagnation point flow study with water based nanoparticles aggregation over a stretching sheet: numerical solution
( American Scientific Publishers , 2016 , Article)Intention of the current study is to examined the two dimensional stagnation point flow of waterbased nanofluid towards a stretching sheet. To simplify the problem similarity transformations are smearing on basic boundary ... -
Estimation procedures based on preliminary test in exponential distribution under progressive censoring
( Nova Science Publishers, Inc. , 2016 , Article)This paper considers the preliminary test estimator of the unknown parameter of the exponential distribution based on progressively Type-II censored samples. The mean squared error of the proposed estimator is derived and ... -
Weak and strong convergence theorems for generalized nonexpansive mappings
( Universitatii Al.I.Cuza din Iasi , 2016 , Article)We consider a class of generalized nonexpansive mappings introduced by Karapinar and seen as a generalization of Suzuki (C)-condition. We prove some weak and strong convergence theorems for approximating fixed points of ... -
Investigation of phase transformation for ferrite-austenite structure in stainless steel thin films
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)In this work we report on phase transformation of 304 stainless steel thin films due to heat treatment. Ex-situ annealing was applied for evaporated 304 stainless steel thin films inside an ultra-high vacuum chamber with ... -
The Schottky-Klein prime function: A theoretical and computational tool for applications
( Oxford University Press , 2016 , Article)This article surveys the important role, in a variety of applied mathematical contexts, played by the socalled Schottky-Klein (S-K) prime function. While it is a classical special function, introduced by 19th century ... -
Effect of Lorentz forces on forced-convection nanofluid flow over a stretched surface
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)Magnetic nanofluid hydrothermal analysis over a plate is studied that includes consideration of thermal radiation. The Runge-Kutta (RK4) method is utilized to get solution of ODEs which are obtained from similarity solution. ... -
Axisymmetric Powell-Eyring fluid flow with convective boundary condition: optimal analysis
( Springer Netherlands , 2016 , Article)The effects of axisymmetric flow of a Powell-Eyring fluid over an impermeable radially stretching surface are presented. Characteristics of the heat transfer process are analyzed with a more realistic condition named the ... -
Gender Difference in Teachers' Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching in the Context of Single-Sex Classrooms
( Springer Netherlands , 2016 , Article)This study examines gender differences of teachers on their mathematical knowledge for teaching in the context of single-sex classrooms in Saudi Arabia. A translated version of the Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (MKT) ... -
Fitted Galerkin spectral method to solve delay partial differential equations
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2016 , Article)In this paper, we consider a class of parabolic partial differential equations with a time delay. The first model equation is the mixed problems for scalar generalized diffusion equation with a delay, whereas the second ... -
On the basis number of the wreath product of ladders
( Charles Babbage Research Centre , 2016 , Article)The basis number of a graph G is defined to be the least non negative integer d such that there is a basis B of the cycle space of G such that each edge of G is contained in at most d members of B. In this paper, we determine ... -
Selective H2S sensor based on CuO nanoparticles embedded in organic membranes
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)We report on H2S gas sensors based on CuO nanoparticles that are embedded within polymer membranes of poly-vinyl-alcohol (PVA) and glycerol ionic liquid (IL). The nanoparticles were fabricated by the colloid microwave ... -
Nonexistence results for the Cauchy problem for some fractional nonlinear systems of thermo-elasticity type
( Wiley-VCH Verlag , 2016 , Article)We study the nonexistence of global solutions to the Cauchy problem for systems of parabolic-hyperbolic or hyperbolic thermo-elasticity equations posed in RN. For power nonlinearities, we present threshold critical exponents ... -
Why is it so difficult to attract FDI to the MENA countries ?
( Science Publications , 2016 , Article)In this study we constructively argue that the relationship between FDI flows and the per capita GDP for the MENA countries has a novel feature-hitherto unrecognised-which can partially explain the great difficulty of the ... -
Comparison of Interval Estimators of Pr(X < Y) in the Two-parameter Exponential Distribution
( Taylor and Francis Inc. , 2016 , Article)We consider confidence intervals for the stress-strength reliability Pr(X< Y) in the two-parameter exponential distribution. We have derived the Bayesian highest posterior density interval using non-informative prior ... -
New parametric solutions of some abel equations
( University of Miskolc , 2016 , Article)New parametric solutions of some Abel equations of second kind are found. The scheme for construction of these solutions utilizes a combination of differential invariants of a symmetry of an associated second order ODE and ... -
