The present paper analyzes the existence of a long-run relationship between the trade balance and exchange rate of Iran and South Korea by a new approach. It proposes an asymmetric co-integrating NARDL model by two positive and negative partial sum decompositions which can use mixed I (0) and I (1) variables by bounds testing approach. The proposed tests are based on calculated F –statistics an...

Abstract: In this study an appropriate computational approach was presented for estimating the boiling temperatures of 41 different types of olefins and their derivatives. Based on the guidelines of this approach, several structural indices related to the organic components were applied using graph theory. Meanwhile, in addition to evaluating the relation between the boiling temperatures of ole...

Small deformations of a viscoelastic body are considered through the linear Maxwell and Kelvin-Voigt models in the quasi-static equilibrium. A robust mixed finite element method, enforcing the symmetry of the stress tensor weakly, is proposed for these equations on simplicial tessellations in two and three dimensions. A priori error estimates are derived and numerical experiments presented. The...

Experimental studies suggest that prolonged trunk flexion reduces passive support of the spine. To understand alterations of the synergy between active and passive tissues following such loadings, several studies have assessed the time-dependent behavior of passive tissues including those within spinal motion segments and muscles. Yet, there remain limitations regarding load-relaxation of the l...

I present a nonlinear differential equation model for the spectrum of Kelvin waves on a thin vortex filament. This model preserves the original scaling of the six-wave kinetic equation, its direct and inverse cascade solutions, as well as the thermodynamic equilibrium spectra. 1 Kelvulence: cascades and spectra. Kelvin waves propagating on a thin vortex filament were proposed by Svistunov to be...

This paper presents and compares 3 methods for the statistical localization of partially occulted landmarks. In many real applications, some information is visible in images and some parts are missing or occulted. These parts are estimated by 3 statistical approaches : a rigid registration, a linear method derived from PCA, which represents spatial relationships, and a non linear model based up...

This paper proposes a model predictive control (MPC) approach for non-linear systems where the dynamics are embedded inside linear parameter-varying (LPV) representation. The MPC problem is therefore replaced by an LPV problem, without using linearization. Compared to general MPC, advantages of this that it allows tractable construction terminal set and cost, only single convex program must be ...
