Abstract: The exponential distribution is a popular model in applications to real data. We propose a new extension of this distribution, called the Lomax-exponential distribution, which presents greater flexibility to the model. Also there is a simple relation between the Lomax-exponential distribution and the Lomax distribution. Results for moment, limit behavior, hazard function, Shannon entr...

in reinforced concrete design, there are situations where transfer of shear across a specific plane needs to be considered. examples of such situation include corbels, bearing shoes, ledger beam bearing, and a host of connection between precast concrete elements. in this study, the shear transfer behavior of reinforced concrete is investigated experimentally by conducting test on 6 precracked p...

we study the exponential decay of global solution for an n-dimensional thermo-elasticity systemin a bounded domain of ℜn . by using the multiplier technique and constructing an energy functional welladapted to the system, the exponential decay is proved.

in [1] we uniquely introduced ultra exponential functions (uxpa) and denednext step of the serial binary operations: addition, multiplication and power.also, we exhibited the topic of limit summability of real functions in [2,3]. inthis paper, we study limit summability of the ultra exponential functions andprove some of their properties. finally, we pose an unsolved problem aboutthem.

  Spreading and coating of nano and micro droplets on solid surfaces is important in a wide variety of applications including plasma spray coating, ink jet printing, DNA synthesis and etc. In spraying processes, most of droplets collide obliquely to the surface. The purpose of this article is to study the distribution of nano and micro droplets spreading when droplets impact at an oblique a...

dual systems of steel moment frame and reinforced concrete shear wall have combined the advantages of steel frames and reinforced concrete shear wall. these walls have increased the lateral stiffness of steel frames and have reduced seismic demands on steel frames thus providing opportunities to use such system. in this research intermediate dual system of steel moment frame was chosen with int...
