Many wave propagation problems (in acoustics or in railway catenary or cable car dynamics, for example) can be solved with high efficiency if the computational domain can be truncated to a small region of interest with appropriate absorbing boundary conditions. In this paper, highly absorbing and stable boundary conditions for linear using a flexible, optimization-based formulation. The propose...

In the catenary images, noise and artifacts are introduced due to the acquisition techniques and systems, which may influence the judgement of catenary quailty and working states. In this paper, the contourlet transform (CT) with performances of multi-scale, multi-resolution and anisotropy is proposed, which can be effectively applied to image denoising. However, the CT hasn’t the spinning inva...

Parametric imaging is a compartmental approach that processes nuclear imaging data to estimate the spatial distribution of the kinetic parameters governing tracer flow. The present paper proposes a novel and efficient computational method for parametric imaging which is potentially applicable to several compartmental models of diverse complexity and which is effective in the determination of th...

This paper presents a mathematical model for predicting the geometrical shapes of rigid, two-pin, moment-less arches of constant cross section. The advancement of this work lies in the inclusion of arch self-weight and the ability to produce moment-less arch forms for any span/rise ratio, and any ratio of uniformly distributed load per unit span, w, to uniformly distributed arch weight per unit...

‎A module $M$ is lifting if and only if $M$ is amply supplemented and‎ ‎every coclosed submodule of $M$ is a direct summand‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we are‎ ‎interested in a generalization of lifting modules by removing the condition‎"‎amply supplemented‎" ‎and just focus on modules such that every non-cosingular‎ ‎submodule of them is a summand‎. ‎We call these modules NS‎. ‎We investigate some gen...

An R-module M is called strongly noncosingular if it has no nonzero Rad-small (cosingular) homomorphic image in the sense of Harada. It is proven that (1) an R-module M is strongly noncosingular if and only if M is coatomic and noncosingular; (2) a right perfect ring R is Artinian hereditary serial if and only if the class of injective modules coincides with the class of (strongly) noncosingula...
