While many games and other virtual world applications include real-time simulation of rigid bodies, fluids and gasses have proven harder to animate efficiently. This report describes a method for extending previous work with particle systems to efficiently simulate smoke that interacts with rigid bodies, using an existing rigid body simulator. The method is applicable compressible fluids and ga...

With supervisory control theory it is possible to describe controllers which influence the behaviour of a system by disabling controllable events. But sometimes it is desirable to have a controller which not only disables controllable events but also chooses one among the enabled ones. This event can be interpreted as a command given to the plant. This idea is formalized in the concept of an im...

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is produced by some kind of acetic acid bacteria. BC demonstrates unique properties, including upward mechanical strength, superior crystallinity, high-water holding and elevated porosity, which make it every useful biomaterial in many different progressive processes. Nowadays, several research areas in industrial zones are concentrating to fabricate some applicable pro...

Flow shop sequencing problem is included in NP-hard problems and a number of heuristic methods have been developed to solve it. Most of these methods are offered for the crisp processing time. However fuzzy algorithm is appropriate for the problems with fuzzy processing time. This paper presents a method in which an algorithm is used to minimize make span of flow shop with fuzzy processing time...

The quality of manufactured products is characterized by many controllable quality factors. These factors should be optimized to reach high quality products. In this paper we try to find the controllable factors levels with minimum deviation from the target and with a least variation. To solve the problem a simple aggregation function is used to aggregate the multiple responses functions then a...

We study internal null controllability for degenerate parabolic equations of Grushin-type Gγ = ∂ xx + |x|∂ yy, (γ > 0), in the rectangle (x, y) ∈ Ω = (−1, 1)× (0, 1). Previous works proved that null controllability holds for weak degeneracies (γ small), and fails for strong degeneracies (γ large). Moreover, in the transition regime and with strip shaped control domains, a positive minimal time ...

A new integer 4 · 4 transform is adopted in the new video coding standard H.264/AVC. It consumes a big account of computation of a real-time encoder. To reduce the computation load of the new transform, pruned DCT algorithm is applied. To avoid serious encoding performance loss, a new condition is derived based on statistical sum of absolute value test(SSAVT) to identify pruned block adaptively...
