fuzzy control systems have had various applications in a wide range of science and engineering in recent years. since an unstable control system is typically useless and potentially dangerous, stability is the most important requirement for any control system (including fuzzy control system). conceptually, there are two types of stability for control systems: lyapunov stability (a special case ...

Ground-level tropospheric ozone is one of the air pollutants of most concern. It is mainly produced by photochemical processes involving nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds in the lower parts of the atmosphere. Ozone levels become particularly high in regions close to high ozone precursor emissions and during summer, when stagnant meteorological conditions with high insolation and hi...

An exact solution is obtained for an axisymmetric steady-state‎ ‎thermo-mechanical stresses in a thick functionally graded‎ ‎cylinder‎. ‎The material properties are graded along the radial‎ ‎direction according to an exponential function of radial‎ ‎direction with three constants‎. ‎The advantage of the proposed‎ ‎model‎, ‎compared to the models with two constants such as the‎ ‎linear‎, ‎power ...

In this paper, we implement and compare the accuracy of ordinary kriging, lognormal ordinary kriging, inverse distance weighting (IDW) and splines for interpolating seasonally stable soil properties (pH, electric conductivity and organic matter) that have been demonstrated to affect yield production. The choice of the exponent value for IDW and splines as well as the number of the closest neigh...

In this paper, the reconcilability between the P-value and the posterior probability in testing a point null hypothesis against the one-sided hypothesis is considered. Two essential families, non regular and exponential family of distributions, are studied. It was shown in a non regular family of distributions; in some cases, it is possible to find a prior distribution function under which P-va...

In this paper we analyse a family of exponential integrators for secondorder differential equations in which high-frequency oscillations in the solution are generated by a linear part. Conditions are given which guarantee that the integrators allow second-order error bounds independent of the product of the step size with the frequencies. Our convergence analysis generalises known results on th...
