Direct discrete method and its application to neutron transport problems

construction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality

like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...

A Compromise Ratio Ranking Method of Triangular Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers\ and Its Application to MADM Problems

Triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TIFNs) is a special case of intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) set and the ranking of TIFNs is an important problem. The aim of this paper is to develop a new methodology for ranking TIFNs by using multiattribute decision making methods (MADM). In this methodology, the value and ambiguity indices of TIFNs may be considered as the attributes and the TIFNs in compa...

The Nodal Discrete Ordinates Method and Its Application to Lwr Lattice Problems

The Discrete Lagrangian Theory and Its Application to Solve Nonlinear Discrete Constrained Optimization Problems

In this research we present new results on discrete Lagrangian methods (DLM) and extend our previous (incomplete and highly simpli ed) theory on the method. Our proposed method forms a strong mathematical foundation for solving general nonlinear discrete optimization problems. Speci cally, we show for continuous Lagrangian methods the relationship among local minimal solutions satisfying constr...

Hartley Series Direct Method for Variational Problems

The computational method based on using the operational matrix of anorthogonal function for solving variational problems is computeroriented. In this approach, a truncated Hartley series together withthe operational matrix of integration and integration of the crossproduct of two cas vectors are used for finding the solution ofvariational problems. Two illustrative...
