We present a new technique to extract the cosmological information from high-redshift supernova data in the presence of calibration errors and extinction due to dust. While in the traditional technique the distance modulus of each supernova is determined separately, in our approach we determine all distance moduli at once, in a process that achieves a significant degree of self-calibration. The...

In order to construct an algorithm for homogeneous diffusive motion that lives on a sphere, we consider the equivalent process of randomly rotating spin vector constant length. By introducing appropriate sets random variables based cross products, families methods with increasing efficacy exactly preserve modulus every realisation. This is done by exponentiating antisymmetric matrix whose entri...

Resilient modulus of pavement materials is a key property required for the pavement thickness design. This paper describes the results of an experimental study on the effects of temperature and loading frequency on the resilient modulus of a SBS polymer modified asphalt concrete under dry and saturated conditions. Dynamic creep tests were conducted on dry and saturated specimens of the mixture ...

The modulus of elasticity Youngs modulus E is a material property, that. From the Hooks law the modulus of elasticity is defined as the ratio of the stress to.modulus of elasticity of the cultured SC cells examined in this study, in central, non-nuclear regions, ranged between. Johnson B.all require an effective E, the Youngs modulus or elastic modulus, to quantify. Elastic moduli, such as the ...

Deformation modulus of rock mass has a significant role in the support design of an underground excavation. It is determined by expensive in-situ tests or by empirical models. Existing models for estimation of deformation modulus do not consider its stress dependence. Herein, data from several sources is used to develop a stress- (depth-) dependent relation for estimation of deformation modulus...

Abstract Multi-cluster fracturing technology was often used in horizontal well reservoir reconstruction to achieve production increase, which also affected casing equivalent stress distribution. This paper focuses on multi-cluster and establishes a model line with the reality. The three-dimensional finite element of fracture-formation-cement sheath-casing proposed, influence cluster spacing num...

Effect of High-Pressure with Temperature (HPP+T) and Thermal Processing (TP) were evaluated on the rheological characteristics mango pulp. Samples subjected to an equivalent condition a 5D (5 log reduction) process for HPP+T (600 MPa/6.3 min at 90 °C) TP (95 °C/10.5 min) be compared. Storage-modulus (G') loss-modulus (G'') modeled according oscillatory frequency using Power-Law. showed G' > ...

In this paper, we present a smoothing modulus-based iterative method for solving the stochastic mixed complementarity problems (SMCP). The main idea is that firstly transform expected value model of SMCP into an equivalent nonsmooth system equations, then obtain approximation smooth equations by using function, and finally solve it Newton method. We give convergence analysis, numerical results ...

Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) is one of the waste materials that highway agencies promote to use in new construction or rehabilitation of highways pavement. Since the use of RAP can affect the resilient modulus and other structural properties of flexible pavement layers, this paper aims to employ two different artificial neural network (ANN) models for modeling and evaluating the effects of ...
