in this work, a hybrid gmdh–neural network model was developed in order to predict the moisture content of papaya slices during hot air drying in a cabinet dryer. for this purpose, parameters including drying time, slices thickness and drying temperature were considered as the inputs and the amount of moisture ratio (mr) was estimated as the output. exactly 50% of the data points were used for ...

the absence of a universally accepted mathematical model for assessment of the effectiveness of drugs in the process of wound healing is one of the problems the health professionals have been faced. in this study, an “empirical” mathematical model is presented to evaluate its reliability from an experimental viewpoint and from a comparative aspect with previous models used to study wound healin...

the strength of concrete is a function of the proportions of the constituent materials, namely, cement, water, fine and coarse aggregates. the conventional methods used to determine the mix proportions that will yield the desired strength, are laborious, time consuming and expensive. in this paper, a mathematical method based on modified regression theory is formulated for the prediction of con...
