Transfer functions are a standard description of onedimensional linear and time-invariant systems. They provide an alternative to the conventional representation by ordinary differential equations and are suitable for computer implementation. This article extends that concept to multidimensional (MD) systems, normally described by partial differential equations (PDEs). Transfer function modelin...

abstract: in this paper, a new population-based search called the bees algorithm (ba) is presented to estimate the time-dependent heat transfer coefficient and the corresponding heat flux at the boundaries of a two-dimensional body subjected to transient heat conduction, using the temperature measurements at discrete nodal locations on the boundaries, where heat flux is specified as the boundar...

In the design of heat exchangers, it is necessary to determine the heat transfer rate between hot and cold fluids in order to calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient and the heat exchanger efficiency. Heat transfer rate can be determined by inverse methods. In this study, the unknown space-time dependent heat flux imposed on the wall of a heat exchanger internal tube is estimated by app...

The frequency behavior of the tunnel injection quantum dot vertical cavitysurface emitting laser (TIQD-VCSEL) is investigated by using an analyticalnumericalmethod on the modulation transfer function. The function is based on therate equations and is decomposed into components related to different energy levelsinside the quantum dot and injection well. In this way, the effect of the tunnelingpr...

La division de la matrice est un geste relativement marginal en taille-douce. Que fragmentation du support vise recomposition ou déconstruction d’une plusieurs matrices préalablement gravées, cette pratique nous invite à repenser comme objet spécifiquement multiple.
