The conventional differential quadrature (DQ) method is limited in its application to regular regions by using functional values along a mesh line to approximate derivatives. In this work, we extend the idea of DQ method to a general case. In other words, any spatial derivative is approximated by a linear weighted sum of all the functional values in the whole physical domain. The weighting coef...

The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. We derive and utilize explicit expressions of weighting coef...

The natural frequencies of non-uniform beams resting on elastic foundations are numerically obtained using the spline collocation procedure. The spline collocation method is a numerical approach effective at solving partial differential equations. The boundary conditions that accompanied the spline collocation procedure were used to convert the partial differential equations of non-uniform beam...

This paper proposesa new class of unit quaternion curves in SO(3). A general method is developed that transforms a curve in R3 (defined as a weighted sum of basis functions) into its unit quaternion analogue in SO(3). Applying the method to well-known spline curves (such as Bézier, Hermite, and B-spline curves), we are able to construct various unit quaternion curves which share many important ...

This paper investigates existence and uniqueness results for the first order fuzzy integro-differential equations. Then numerical results and error bound based on the left rectangular quadrature rule, trapezoidal rule and a hybrid of them are obtained. Finally an example is given to illustrate the performance of the methods.

Immiscible flows arise in many diverse applications mechanical, chemical, and environmental engineering. Such involve interfacial conditions often feature mass (species) diffusion. Motivated by non-Newtonian duct processing, the present article a comprehensive mathematical model computational simulation with modified cubic B-spline-Differential Quadrature method (MCB-DQM) is described for unste...

In this paper, vibration analysis of rotary tapered axially functionally graded (AFG) Timoshenko nanobeam is investigated in a thermal environment based on nonlocal theory. The governing equations of motion and the related boundary conditions are derived by means of Hamilton’s principle based on the first order shear deformation theory of beams. The solution method is considered using generaliz...

introduction 3d reconstruction of an object from its 2d cross-sections (slices) has many applications in different fields of sciences such as medical physics and biomedical engineering. in order to perform 3d reconstruction, at first, desired boundaries at each slice are detected and then using a correspondence between points of successive slices surface of desired object is reconstructed. mate...
