Electron-impact ionization of W5+
( American Physical Society , 2019 , Article)Electron-impact single-ionization cross sections for the W5+ ion have been studied experimentally and theoretically. Measurements of a detailed ionization spectrum and of absolute cross sections were performed employing ... -
Application of garch model to forecast data and volatility of share price of energy (Study on adaro energy Tbk, LQ45)
( Econjournals , 2018 , Article)Most of the times, Economic and Financial data not only become highly volatile but also show heterogeneous variances (heteroscedasticity). The common method of the Box Jenkins cannot be used for data modeling as the method ... -
Network Analysis of MERS Coronavirus within Households, Communities, and Hospitals to Identify Most Centralized and Super-Spreading in the Arabian Peninsula, 2012 to 2016
( Hindawi Limited , 2018 , Article)Contact history is crucial during an infectious disease outbreak and vital when seeking to understand and predict the spread of infectious diseases in human populations. The transmission connectivity networks of people ... -
Numerical conformal mapping onto the entire complex plane bounded with finite straight slit and logarithmic spiral slits
( Institute of Physics Publishing , 2019 , Conference Paper)This paper presents a fast boundary integral equation method with for computing conformal mappings of multiply connected regions. We consider the canonical region consists of the entire complex plane bounded by a finite ... -
Monitoring Coefficient of Variation Using Progressive Mean Technique
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Conference Paper)Control charts are mostly used for the monitoring of process mean and dispersion. In cases, when the process standard deviation is proportional to the mean, it is recommended to use control charts based on coefficient of ... -
Numerical conformal mapping onto the exterior unit disk with a straight slit and logarithmic spiral slits
( Institute of Physics Publishing , 2019 , Conference Paper)This paper presents a fast boundary integral equation method for numerical conformal mapping of unbounded multiply connected regions onto a disk with an infinite straight slit and finite logarithmic spiral slits. Some ... -
Investigation of optical and electrical properties of Cobalt-doped Ge-Sb-S thin film
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)Amorphous Germanium Antimony Sulphide (Ge-Sb-S) doped with Cobalt (Co) have been deposited on glass substrates by thermal evaporation technique on a glass substrate. The films deposited onto glass substrates are characterized ... -
Enhancing the performance of the EWMA control chart for monitoring the process mean using auxiliary information
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2019 , Article)When using control charts to monitor manufacturing processes, the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control chart is useful for detecting persistent shifts in the process parameter. This paper proposes enhancements ... -
Invariant characterization of scalar third-order ODEs that admit the maximal point symmetry Lie algebra
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2018 , Article)The Cartan equivalence method is used to deduce an invariant characterization of the scalar third-order ordinary differential equation u"' = f(x, u, u', u"), which admits the maximal 7-dimensional point symmetry Lie algebra. ... -
A note on the Ramsey numbers for theta graphs versus the wheel of order 5
( Kalasalingam University , 2018 , Article)The study of exact values and bounds on the Ramsey numbers of graphs forms an important family of problems in the extremal graph theory. For a set of graphs S and a graph F, the Ramsey number R(S,F) is the smallest positive ... -
