A fast numerical method for ideal fluid flow in domains with multiple stirrers
( Institute of Physics Publishing , 2018 , Article)A collection of arbitrarily-shaped solid objects, each moving at a constant speed, can be used to mix or stir ideal fluid, and can give rise to interesting flow patterns. Assuming these systems of fluid stirrers are ... -
Estimation of common location parameter of two exponential populations based on records
( Taylor and Francis Inc. , 2018 , Article)Consider the problem of estimating the common location parameter of two exponential populations using record data when the scale parameters are unknown. We derive the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), the modified maximum ... -
New solitary wave and multiple soliton solutions for fifth order nonlinear evolution equation with time variable coefficients
( Elsevier B.V. , 2018 , Article)In this paper, we investigate the multiple soliton solutions and multiple singular soliton solutions of a class of the fifth order nonlinear evolution equation with variable coefficients of t using the simplified bilinear ... -
Design, fabrication, and characterization of Hg2+ sensor based on graphite oxide and metallic nanoclusters
( Elsevier B.V. , 2018 , Article)In this paper, sensors with field-effect transistor structure have been developed to detect low concentration of mercury ions (Hg2+) in water. These sensors are based on graphite oxide decorated with silver nanoclusters, ... -
T-tetrominoes tiling's Markov chain mixes fast
( Elsevier B.V. , 2018 , Article)Korn and Pak (2007) [3] conjectured that there exists a fully polynomial randomized approximation scheme (fpras) for approximating the number of ways of tiling a 4n x 4m rectangular lattice with T-tetrominoes. Using a flow ... -
Shrinkage estimates of covariance matrices to improve the performance of multivariate cumulative sum control charts
( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)Multivariate cumulative sum control charts require knowledge of the in-control process covariance parameters. Here, we show that the performance of the multivariate cumulative sum control charts for individual-observation ... -
Optical fluorescent spider silk electrospun nanofibers with embedded cerium oxide nanoparticles
( SPIE , 2018 , Article)The work demonstrates an electrospun nanocomposite of recombinant spider silk protein (rSSp) nanofibers with embedded cerium oxide (ceria) nanoparticles. RSSP (MaSp1) has been produced, extracted from goat milk, and ... -
Graphene-based nanopore approaches for DNA sequencing: A literature review
( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article Review)DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the blueprint of life as it encodes all genetic information. In genetic disorder such as gene fusion, copy number variation (CNV) and single nucleotide polymorphism, DNA sequencing is used ... -
Linearization of third-order ordinary differential equations u'''=f(x,u,u',u') via point transformations
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2018 , Article)The linearization problem for scalar third-order ordinary differential equations via point transformations was solved partially in the works of Al-Dweik et al by the use of the Cartan equivalence method. In order to solve ... -
The Ramsey number for two graphs of order 5
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2018 , Article)For two graphs F1 and F2, the Ramsey number R(F1, F2) is the smallest positive integer r such that for every graph G on r vertices, G contains F1 as a subgraph or the complement of G contains F2 as a subgraph. We present ... -
Optimal control of coupled parabolic–hyperbolic non-autonomous PDEs: infinite-dimensional state-space approach
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2018 , Article)This paper deals with the design of an optimal state-feedback linear-quadratic (LQ) controller for a system of coupled parabolic–hypebolic non-autonomous partial differential equations (PDEs). The infinite-dimensional state ... -
Embedding algorithms and applications to differential equations
( Academic Press , 2018 , Article)Algorithms for embedding certain types of nilpotent subalgebras in maximal subalgebras of the same type are developed, using methods of real algebraic groups. These algorithms are applied to determine non-conjugate subalgebras ... -
On the nonexistence of degenerate phase-shift discrete solitons in a dNLS nonlocal lattice
( Elsevier B.V. , 2018 , Article)We consider a one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schrdinger (dNLS) model featuring interactions beyond nearest neighbors. We are interested in the existence (or nonexistence) of phase-shift discrete solitons, which correspond ... -
On generalized Littlewood–Paley functions
( Springer-Verlag Italia s.r.l. , 2018 , Article)We study the Lp boundedness of certain classes of generalized Littlewood–Paley functions S(f). We obtain Lp estimates of S(f) with sharp range of p and under optimal conditions on ?. By using these estimates along with an ... -
Size-selected fabrication of alloy nanoclusters by plasma-gas condensation
( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)This work reports on the production of alloy Ti-Cu nanoclusters by magnetron sputtering and plasma-gas condensation inside an ultra-high compatible system. Inert-gas was introduced inside a source chamber to generate plasma, ... -
On some statistical approximation by (p, q)-Bleimann, Butzer and Hahn Operators
( MDPIAG , 2018 , Article)In this article, we propose a different generalization of (p, q)-BBH operators and carry statistical approximation properties of the introduced operators towards a function which has to be approximated where (p, q)-integers ... -
