The effects of wave direction, frequency and the waterline shape of floating structures on the wave mean drift force formula have been considered separately by several authors but there isn't a general formula to take into account all of these effects. In this regard, Faltinsen’s wave drift force formula has been modified by adding finite draft coefficient. The results obtained from this formu...

This paper deals with the boundary value problem involving the differential equation ell y:=-y''+qy=lambda y, subject to the eigenparameter dependent boundary conditions along with the following discontinuity conditions y(d+0)=a y(d-0), y'(d+0)=ay'(d-0)+b y(d-0). In this problem q(x), d, a , b are real, qin L^2(0,pi), din(0,pi) and lambda is a parameter independent of x. By defining a new...

By exploiting a multichannel portable instrument for time-domain near-infrared spectroscopy (TD-NIRS), we characterized healthy neonates' brains in term of optical properties and hemodynamic parameters. In particular, we assessed the absolute values of the absorption and reduced scattering coefficients at two wavelengths, together with oxy-, deoxy- and total hemoglobin concentrations, and the b...

Following methods of Hayes, we state a conjectural product formula for ratios of Brumer–Stark units over real quadratic fields.

These days randomized-based population optimization algorithms are in wide use in different branches of science such as bioinformatics, chemical physics andpower engineering. An important group of these algorithms is inspired by physical processes or entities’ behavior. A new approach of applying optimization-based social relationships among the members of a community is investigated in this pa...

This paper deals with the boundary value problem involving the differential equation begin{equation*}     ell y:=-y''+qy=lambda y,  end{equation*}  subject to the standard boundary conditions along with the following discontinuity  conditions at a point $ain (0,pi)$  begin{equation*}     y(a+0)=a_1 y(a-0),quad y'(a+0)=a_1^{-1}y'(a-0)+a_2 y(a-0), end{equation*} where $q(x),  a_1 , a_2$ are  rea...

   The aim of this study was to campare the effects of  breast-feeding and formula-feeding on the charactristics of stool in infants,1 and 3 months of age.in this investigation,651 infants(338 girls(51.9%)) and 313 boys(48.1%) with the mean age of 2.18+_0.84 months were studied.this population included of infants presenting to tour different health and medical centres in Kerman for routine vac...

one of the main steps within the geoid computation methodology without applying the stokes formula is downward continuation of the harmonic residual observables from the surface of the earth down to the surface of the reference ellipsoid. this downward continuation is done via the abel-poisson integral and its derivatives. this integral in which the unknowns, i.e. harmonic residual potential va...
