in this paper, direct numerical simulation of two-phase incompressible gas-liquid flow for simulation of bubble motion in a microtube is presented. microtube radius is 10 µm. the interface is tracked using volume of fluid (vof) method with continuous surface force (csf) model. the flow is solved using a finite volume scheme, based on piso algorithm. numerical simulation is performed on a axisym...

in this paper, a new approach for estimating the number of wideband sources is proposed which is based on rss or ism algorithms. numerical results show that the mdl-based and eit-based proposed algorithm havea much better detection performance than that in egm and aic cases for small differences between the incident angles of sources. in addition, for similar conditions, rss algorithm offers hi...

Abstract. The main contribution of the current paper is to propose a new effective numerical method for solving the first-order linear matrix differential equations. Properties of the Legendre basis operational matrix of integration together with a collocation method are applied to reduce the problem to a coupled linear matrix equations. Afterwards, an iterative algorithm is examined for solvin...

In this article, we propose a numerical algorithm for computing price of discrete single and double barrier option under the emph{Black-Scholes} model. In virtue of some general transformations, the partial differential equations of option pricing in different monitoring dates are converted into simple diffusion equations. The present method is fast compared to alterna...

The dynamic facility layout problem (DFLP) is the problem of finding positions of departments onthe plant floor for multiple periods (material flows between departments change during the planning horizon)such that departments do not overlap, and the sum of the material handling and rearrangement costs isminimized. In this paper a new optimization algorithm inspired from colonizing weeds, Invasi...

Optimal expansion of medium-voltage power networks is a common issue in electrical distribution planning. Minimizing total cost of the objective function with technical constraints and reliability limits, make it a combinatorial problem which should be solved by optimization algorithms. This paper presents a new hybrid simulated annealing and tabu search algorithm for distribution network expan...

in this paper, the researchers have investigated a concatenated robot move (crm) sequence problem and minimal part set (mps) schedule problem with different setup times for two-machine robotic cell. they have focused on simultaneous solving of crm sequence and mps schedule problems with different loading and unloading times. they have applied a simulated annealing (sa) algorithm to provide a go...
