Cement-based materials are fundamental resources used to in construction. The increase in requests for and consumption of cement products, especially in Iran, indicates that more cement plants should be equipped. This study developed a geographical information system using pairwise comparison based on grey numbers to identify potential sites in which to set up cement plants. A group of five exp...

The best approximation problem in a hyperconvex metric space consists of finding conditions for given set-valued mappings F andG and a setX such that there is a point x0 ∈ X satisfying d G x0 , F x0 ≤ d x, F x0 for x ∈ X. When G I, the identity mapping, and when the set X is compact, best approximation theorems for mappings in hyperconvex metric spaces are given for the single-valued case in 1–...

Many algorithms have to deal with multiple representations of the same object. The process of aligning these representations is called registration. In this paper we present a new approach for the registration of free-form surfaces which is not based on finding closest points. Instead, our algorithm takes advantage of the graphics hardware and uses the depth buffer for determining the distance ...

The proximity relations inherent in triangulations of geometric data can be exploited in the implementation of nearest-neighbour search procedures. This is relevant to applications such as terrain analysis, cartography and robotics, in which triangulations may be used to model the spatial data. Here we describe neighbourhood search procedures within constrained Delaunay triangulations of the ve...

Notice that best proximity point results have been studied to find necessaryconditions such that the minimization problemminx∈A∪Bd(x,Tx)has at least one solution, where T is a cyclic mapping defined on A∪B.A point p ∈ A∪B is a best proximity point for T if and only if thatis a solution of the minimization problem (2.1). Let (A,B) be a nonemptypair in a normed...
