nowadays, utilization of blended fuel in internal combustion engine is one of main topics in vehicle industries. the synergy effect will be highlighted when the potential of each fuel is employed and the engine performance will improve consequently.  in this research, the laminar flame speed of methane (main component of reference fuel for natural gas) and isooctane (main component of reference...

Shape blending has several applications in computer graphics. In this paper, we present a new method for smoothly blending among multiple polygonal shapes. The blended shape is computed as a weighted average of the input shapes. The weight of each input shape is allowed to vary across the shape. This feature increases the flexibility for controlling the local appearance of the blended shapes. O...

METHODS This study was conducted during the hematology block on year three students. Five lectures were delivered online only. Asynchronous discussion boards were created where students could interact with colleagues and instructors. A flipp...

This paper introduces optimally-blended quadrature rules for isogeometric analysis and analyzes the numerical dispersion of the resulting discretizations. To quantify the approximation errors when we modify the inner products, we generalize the Pythagorean eigenvalue theorem of Strang and Fix. The proposed blended quadrature rules have advantages over alternative integration rules for isogeomet...

Introduction: Blended learning is a mixture of various learning strategies and delivery methods to optimize the learning experience of the users. Objectives: The objective of this study was to compare a designed blended educational method with classical face to face method in the cognitive effect of the program on the students’ critical thinking. Methods: A comparative study was conducted on 41...
