according to heidegger human existence is not encapsulated and limited in itself, rather it is a transcendental existence which is standing out in the world. this ecstasy is rooted in the deeper relation between human existence and being. in heidegger philosophy this necessary relation between man and world is an essential element in the existential structure of man. that is why he uses the ter...

we consider an approximation scheme using haar wavelets for solving a class of infinite horizon optimal control problems (ocp's) of nonlinear interconnected large-scale dynamic systems. a computational method based on haar wavelets in the time-domain is proposed for solving the optimal control problem. haar wavelets integral operational matrix and direct collocation method are utilized to ...

A MAD (maximal almost disjoint) family is an infinite subset A of the infinite subsets of ω = {0, 1, 2, . . . , } such that any two elements of A intersect in a finite set and every infinite subset of ω meets some element of A in an infinite set. A Q-set is an uncountable set of reals such that every subset is a relative Gδ set. It is shown that it is relatively consistent with ZFC that there e...

This paper presents a physics-based approach to anatomical surface segmentation, reconstruction, and tracking in multidimensional medical images. The approach makes use of a dynamic \balloon" model|a spherical thin-plate under tension surface spline which deforms elastically to t the image data. The tting process is mediated by internal forces stemming from the elastic properties of the spline ...

In typical Lamb wave simulation practices, effects of plate edge reflections are often not considered in order to simplify the wave signal interpretations. Methods that are based on infinite plates such as the semi-analytical finite element method is effective in simulating Lamb waves as it excludes the effect of plate edges. However, the inclusion of plate edges in a finite plate could render ...

An efficient and highly accurate, Symmetric Galerkin Boundary Element Method Finite Element Method based alternating method, for the analysis of three-dimensional non-planar cracks, and their growth, in structural components of complicated geometries, is proposed. The crack is modeled by the symmetric Galerkin boundary element method, as a distribution of displacement discontinuities, as if in ...
