in this research, a two-phase algorithm based on the artificial neural network (ann) and a harmony search (hs) algorithm has been developed with the aim of assessing the reliability of structures with implicit limit state functions. the proposed method involves the generation of datasets to be used specifically for training by finite element analysis, to establish an ann model using a proven an...

Ground-state cooling and pure state preparation of a small object that is embedded in a thermal environment is an important challenge and a highly desirable quantum technology. This paper proves, with two different methods, that a fundamental constraint on the cooling dynamic implies that it is impossible to cool, via a unitary system-bath quantum evolution, a system that is embedded in a therm...

Artificial intelligence has been an active branch of research for computer scientists and psychologists for 50 years. The concept of mimicking human intelligence in a computer fuels the public imagination and has led to countless academic papers, news articles and fictional works. However, public expectations remain largely unfulfilled, owing to the incredible complexity of everyday human behav...

Study in surface water quality is important. Rivers are one of the main sources of water supply fordrinking, agriculture and industry. Unfortunately, sometime Rivers where wastewater dischargesare considered. For this reason,the pollutant transmission in river is one of the most importantproblems in Environmental Engineering. the Advection Dispersion Equation (ADE) is governedon the pollutant t...

The typical equation for bed level change in sediment transport in river, estuary and near shore systems is based on conservation of sediment mass. It is generally a nonlinear conservation equation for bed level. The physics here are similar to shallow water wave equations and gas dynamics equation which will develop shock waves in many circumstances. Many state-of-art morphological models use ...
