the quality of environmental impact assessment (eia) findings, as a decision support system, has always been a function of the extent of its boundaries. meanwhile, boundaries of a study area can be delineated physically or non-physically according to the eia working units or methodologies. six case studies have been conducted to consider the study areas of variety of eias namely, visual, cumula...

This research develops thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded cylinder under thermo-mechanical loadings. Heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinate system is solved. Thermal conductivity coefficient is graded along the radial direction. By considering a symmetric distribution of temperature, loading and boundary conditions, strain-displacement and stress-strain relations can b...

We present some fixed point results for a single mapping and a pair of compatible mappings via auxiliary functions which satisfy a generalized weakly contractive condition in partially ordered complete $G$-metric spaces. Some examples are furnished to illustrate the useability of our main results. At the end, an application is presented to the study of exi...

This paper presents the complete algorithm of site response analysis of nonhomogeneous topographic structures using transient two-dimensional boundary element method (BEM). Seismic behaviour of various topographic features including canyon, half plane, sedimentary filled valley and ridge sections, subjected to incident SV and P waves are analysed. The analysis shows the efficiency of the propos...
