In this article we have considered Fredholm integro-differential equation type second-order boundary value problems and proposed a rational difference method for numerical solution of the problems. The composite trapezoidal quadrature and non-standard difference method are used to convert Fredholm integro-differential equation into a system of equations. The numerical results in experiment on s...

Kheirfam and Hasani (Sensitivity analysis for fuzzy linear programming problems with fuzzy variables, Advanced Modeling and Optimization, 12 (2010) 257-272), proposed a new method to deal with the sensitivity analysis of such fuzzy linear programming (FLP) problems in which all the elements of coefficient matrix of the constraints and the coefficients of the decision variables in the objective ...

Abstract. We derive optimal order, residual-based a posteriori error estimates for time discretizations by the two–step BDF method for linear parabolic equations. Appropriate reconstructions of the approximate solution play a key role in the analysis. To utilize the BDF method we employ one step by both the trapezoidal method or the backward Euler scheme. Our a posteriori error estimates are of...

We propose a new approach to assigning distance between fuzzy numbers. A pseudo-metric on the set of fuzzy numbers and a metric on the set of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are described. The regular reducing functions and the Hausdorff metric are used to define the metric. Using this metric, we can approximate an arbitrary generalized left right fuzzy number with a trapezoidal one. Finally, powers ...

It is generally agreed that of all quadrature formulae, the trapezoidal rule, while being the simplest, is also the least accurate. There is, however, a rather general class of integrals for which the trapezoidal rule can be shown to be a highly accurate means of obtaining numerical values. Specifically, if the integrand is a periodic, even function with all derivatives continuous, then the int...

Defuzzification is the process of converting a fuzzy quantity to precise quantity, just as fuzzification is the conversion of a precise quantity to a fuzzy quantity. Various types of defuzzification methods, are available for conversion of fuzzy to non-fuzzy. In this paper, defuzzification functions in intuitionistic fuzzy environment such as triangular, trapezoidal, L-trapezoidal, R-trapezoida...

trapezoidal channels are frequently used in irrigation networks and other free surface water conveyance systems. the computation of the critical flow depth is one of the primary importance in the design process. it is usually determined by using design charts of iteration techniques. however, researchers have recently proposed formulas that directly provide approximate solutions. this paper pre...

Abstract: To cure imperfections such as low accuracy and the lack of ability to nucleate hole in the conventional level set-based topology optimization method, a novel method using a trapezoidal method with discrete design variables is proposed. The proposed method can simultaneously accomplish topology and shape optimization. The finite element method is employed to obtain element properties a...

In this paper, we propose and analyze a new predictor-corrector method for solving a nonlinear system of equations using the weight combination of mid-point, Trapezoidal and quadrature formulas. A new algorithm based on this method has been presented. The proposed method has been tested on a series of examples published in the literature and shows good results. Comparison with other similar met...
