The multistage homotopy-perturbation method: A powerful scheme for handling the Lorenz system
(
Elsevier
, 2007 , Article)
In this paper, a new reliable algorithm based on an adaptation of the standard homotopy-perturbation method (HPM) is presented. The HPM is treated as an algorithm in a sequence of intervals (i.e. time step) for finding ...
Effects of treated municipal wastewater and sea water irrigation on soil and plant characteristics
(
Springer Nature
, 2009 , Article)
The increasing need for water in the arid areas of the world has resulted in the emergence of wastewater application for agriculture and landscape. Using treated wastewater in agricultural irrigation can provide more ...
Seroprevalence and epidemiological correlates of Toxoplasma gondii infections among patients referred for hospital-based serological testing in Doha, Qatar
(
BioMed Central
, 2008 , Article)
Background. The city of Doha in Qatar has a high density of feral cats and there is a high risk of toxoplasmosis for the resident human population. No data currently exist for the prevalence of infection with Toxoplasma ...
Determination and selecting the optimum thickness of insulation for buildings in hot countries by accounting for solar radiation
(
Elsevier
, 2004 , Article)
Determination and selecting the optimum thickness of insulation is the prime interest of many engineering applications. One of those applications is insulating buildings with an appropriate insulation. Calculations have ...
Estimation of Pr(X ≤ Y) using record values in the one and two parameter exponential distributions
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2008 , Article)
Abstract
We consider the problem of estimating the stress-strength reliability when the available data is in the form of record values. The one parameter and two parameters exponential distribution are considered. In the ...
Application of Homotopy Perturbation Method to Singularly Perturbed Volterra Integral Equations
(
Asian Network for Scientific Information
, 2008 , Article)
In this study, the Homotopy-Perturbation Method (HPM) proposed by J.-H. He is adopted for solving singularly perturbed Volterra integral equations (SVIEs). Three numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness ...
A New Low Cost Linear Resolver Converter
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Article)
A new low cost converter topology is proposed for sinusoidal position encoders. The converter enables determination of the angle from the sine and cosine signals of the encoder. When used with resolvers, the implementation ...
Modeling, simulation and control of a scheibel liquid–liquid contactor: Part 1. Dynamic analysis and system identification
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
The liquid–liquid extraction process is well-known for its complexity and often entails intensive modeling and computational efforts to simulate its dynamic behaviour. However, rigorous mathematical models are usually ...
A systematic visual approach to molecular design via property clusters and group contribution methods
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2008 , Article)
In this work, a new simple yet effective, systematic method to synthesize and design molecules is presented. Visualization of the problem is achieved by employing an annex to the recently developed property clustering ...
La Convivencia: The Spirit of Co-existence in Islam
(
Islamic Research Institute, International Islamic University, Islamabad
, 2009 , Article)
The tremendous inter-dependence of our era underlines the importance of successfully removing racial, cultural and religious barriers in a manner that nurtures understanding, togetherness, and acceptance. To do so, would ...
