‎in this paper‎, ‎we find matrix representation of a class of sixth order sturm-liouville problem (slp) with separated‎, ‎self-adjoint boundary conditions and we show that such slp have finite spectrum‎. ‎also for a given matrix eigenvalue problem $hx=lambda vx$‎, ‎where $h$ is a block tridiagonal matrix and $v$ is a block diagonal matrix‎, ‎we find a sixth order boundary value problem of atkin...

The accuracy and efficiency of the elements proposed by finite element method (FEM) considerably depend on the interpolating functions namely shape functions used to formulate the displacement field within the element. In the present study, novel functions, namely basic displacements functions (BDFs), are introduced and exploited for structural analysis of nanobeams using finite element method ...

In this paper, we investigate a singular perturbation problem including a fourth order O.D.E. with general linear boundary conditions. Firstly, we obtain the necessary conditions of solution of O.D.E. by making use of fundamental solution, then by compatibility of these conditions with boundary conditions, we determine that, for given perturbation problem, whether boundary layer is formed or not.

The steady three-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a dusty fluid towards a stretching sheet with convective boundary conditions is investigated by using similarity solution approach. The free stream along z-direction impinges on the stretching sheet to produce a flow with different velocity components. The governing equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations b...

The vertex boundary-width problem (for short VBWP) is to determine the value of vbw(G)=max1 |V |minS⊆V,|S|= |N(S)| for a given graph G= (V ,E), where N(S)= {v / ∈ S|v is a neighbor of u for some u ∈ S}. In this paper, we give a lower bound for vertex boundary-width of complete k-ary trees. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The rodents’ fauna of boundary zones of Iran are still poorly known. In this research rodents fauna of Khaf township in northeast of Iran have been reported mainly based on pellets of birds of prey. Alive samples and also rodent’s remains from pellet materials of birds of prey in the present study was collected from 46 localities in Khaf, northeast of KhorasanRazavi province and different speci...

Unique continuation results are proved for metrics with prescribed Ricci curvature in the setting of bounded metrics on compact manifolds with boundary, and in the setting of complete conformally compact metrics on such manifolds. In addition, it is shown that the Ricci curvature forms an elliptic system in geodesic-harmonic coordinates naturally associated with the boundary data.

in recent years, decrease in depth of uromia lake, has resulted in higher increase of salinity threat in agricultural lands around the lake. the aims of this study were 1- investigation of the spatial changes in soil salinity using the bayesian maximum entropy method (bme); 2- prediction of the boundary between saline and agricultural lands; and 3- assessment of the uncertainty involved with sa...

Using a system of axioms among with a modified definition of boundary on the basis of the intuitionistic fuzzy sets, we formulate an inductive structure for the dimension of fuzzy spaces which has been defined by Coker. This new definition of boundary allows to characterize an intuitionistic fuzzy clopen set as a set with zero boundary. Also, some critical properties and applications are establ...
