This paper investigates factors affecting business analytics (BA) in software and systems development projects. is the first study to examine continuance projects from Pakistani professional’s perspective. The data was collected 186 professionals working analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modelling techniques. Our model able explain 40% variance of BA intention, 62% satisf...

In the present work, failure of a snow slab is analyzed by accounting Normal mode criteria. The analysis has been extended to include residual stress into the model (in addition to body forces). Intensity of crack energy release rate, and displacement components have been derived and their values have been estimated. The obtained results have been compared with the existing snow slab failure mo...

determination of critical points on hot stress-strain curve of metals is crucial in thermo-mechanical processes design. in this investigation a mathematical modeling is given to illustrate the behavior of metal during hot deformation processes such as hot rolling. the critical strain for the onset of dynamic recrystallization has been obtained as a function of strain at the maximum stress. in a...

We present an exact solution to the problem of the global shape description of a spherical vesicle distorted by a grafted latex bead. This solution is derived by treating the nonlinearity in bending elasticity through the (topological) Bogomol'nyi decomposition technique and elastic compatibility. We recover the "hat-model" approximation in the limit of a small latex bead and find that the regi...

With the aid of a direct projective approach, a general transformation solution for the nonautonomous nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) system is derived. Based on certain known exact solutions of the projective equation, some periodic and localized excitations with novel properties are correspondingly revealed by entrancing appropriate system parameters. The integrable constraint conditions for the ...

The density matrix positivity is a natural counterpart of unitarity. The resulting constraints for various parton distribution and correlations are considered. Their compatibility with leading order QCD evolution is guaranteed by the probabilistic interpretation of the latter. In the case of non-forward distributions the positivity constraints naturally imply the symmetric form of the evolution...

If the initial and boundary data for a partial differential equation (PDE) do not obey an infinite set of compatibility conditions, singularities will arise in its solutions. For dissipative equations, these singularities are well localized in both time and space, and an effective numerical remedy is available for accurate computation of initial transients. This study analyzes the nature of sim...

BACKGROUND Marital satisfaction is one of the main determinants of a family's correct function. A large number of veterans have been reported to suffer from depression, anxiety, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and physical disorders. The objective of this study is to examine association between Illogical thoughts and Dependence on Others and Marriage Compatibility in the Iranian...

The analysis of transient scattering from perfectly conducting as well as potentially inhomogeneous penetrable bodies often is effected using marching on in time based time domain integral equation methods. This paper reviews the state of the art in the field, highlighting recent advances that address not only their stability and computational efficiency, but also their convergence and hybridiz...

We introduce a new class of nonlinear equations admitting a representation in terms of Darboux-covariant compatibility conditions. Their special cases are, in particular, (i) the “general” von Neumann equation iρ̇ = [H, f(ρ)], with [f(ρ), ρ] = 0, (ii) its generalization involving certain functions f(ρ) which are non-Abelian in the sense that [f(ρ), ρ] 6= 0, and (iii) the Nahm equations.
