چکیده

This paper is concerned with the modeling and simulation of extremely large networks. We derive a timedependent diffusion–convection partial differential equation, the solution of which captures the global characteristics of a stochastic network model. Continuum modeling provides a powerful way to deal with the number of components in large networks and opens up the use of highly sophisticated mathematical tools such as adaptive finite element methods. This, in turn, makes it possible to carry out}with reasonable computational burden even for very large systems}network performance evaluation and prototyping, network design, systematic parameter studies, and optimization of network characteristics.

Analysis of routing protocols and interference-limited communication in large wireless networks via continuum modeling

The evaluation and assessment of the design of large wireless networks is an important problem in numerous applications. Direct simulation is a traditional approach for studying such networks but is severely limited in its utility as the size of the network increases. This necessitates other means for studying large networks, one of which is the modeling of large networks with continuum models....

Estimating the continuum of quasars using the articial neural networks

A lot of absorption lines are in the bluewards of Lyα emission line of quasar which is well-known as Lyαforest. Most of absorption lines in this forest belong to the Lyα absorption of the neutral hydrogen in the inter-galactic medium (IGM). For high redshift quasars and in the continuum with low and medium resolution, there are no many regions without absorption, so that, the quasar continuum i...

Inelastic Continuum Modeling of Carbon Nanotube,s Behavior Using Finite Element Method

This paper describes a continuum model for analyzing the inelastic behavior of a single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) in different loading conditions. Because of limitations in using molecular dynamics (and other atomic methods) to model the failure load of the SWCNT, continuum mechanics methods are considered in this paper. Based on some experimental and theoretical results, an elasto-plastic...
