the density functional theory (dft) and the natural bond orbital (nbo) calculations basedmethod b3lyp/6-31g* were carried out to study the interaction of carbon nanotube (8,0) withnitrobenzene in two situations perpendicular and parallel. formation energies of compounds,charges, the highest occupied molecular orbital (homo) and the lowest unoccupied molecular'orbital (lumo) and the homo-lumo ba...

Parallel tempering (PT) methods are a popular class of Markov chain Monte Carlo schemes used to sample complex high-dimensional probability distributions. They rely on collection $N$ interacting auxiliary chains targeting tempered versions the target distribution improve exploration state-space. We provide here new perspective these highly parallel algorithms and their tuning by identifying for...

The purpose of this paper is to explain the causes of long-run movements in the parallel market premium in the pre-and-post revolution Iranian economy. The paper suggests that the premium is affected by both real and monetary shocks. Non-spurious co-integration results indicate that negative oil revenue shocks and a revolution-induced exogenous capital outflow caused the parallel market paralle...

The main goal in this paper is to propose an optimization model for determining the structure of a series-parallel system. Regarding the previous studies in series-parallel systems, the main contribution of this study is to expand the redundancy allocation parallel to systems that have repairable components. The considered optimization model has two objectives: maximizing the system mean time t...
