Objective(s): Cell therapy has provided clinical applications to the treatment of motor neuron diseases. The current obstacle in stem cell therapy is to direct differentiation of stem cells into neurons in the neurodegenerative disorders. Biomaterial scaffolds can improve cell differentiation and are widely used in translational medicine and tissue engineering. The aim...

In this paper, an effective numerical method is introduced for the treatment of nonlinear two-dimensional Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations. Here, we use the so-called two-dimensional block-pulse functions.First, the two-dimensional block-pulse operational matrix of integration and differentiation has been presented. Then, by using this matrices, the nonlinear two-dimensional Vol...

in this paper, a method for finding an approximate solution of a class of two-dimensional nonlinear volterra integral equations of the first-kind is proposed. this problem is transformedto a nonlinear two-dimensional volterra integral equation of the second-kind. the properties ofthe bivariate shifted legendre functions are presented. the operational matrices of integrationtogether with the produ...

in this paper, the two-dimensional triangular orthogonal functions (2d-tfs) are applied for solving a class of nonlinear two-dimensional volterra integral equations. 2d-tfs method transforms these integral equations into a system of linear algebraic equations. the high accuracy of this method is verified through a numerical example and comparison of the results with the other numerical methods.

a modified f-expansion method to find the exact traveling wave solutions of  two-component nonlinear partial differential equations (nlpdes) is discussed. we use this method to construct many new solutions to the nonlinear whitham-broer-kaup system (1+1)-dimensional. the solutions obtained include jacobi elliptic periodic wave solutions which exactly degenerate to the soliton solutions, triangu...

In this paper airflow, nano-and micro-particle motions in an aerodynamic particle beam focusing system consisting of several lenses, a nozzle and the downstream chamber, was studied. A three-dimensional numerical simulation for the system was presented and the compressible airflow and thermal conditions in the aerodynamic lens system were evaluated. Dilute particle concentration was assumed so ...

based on symbolic manipulation program maple and using riccati equation mapping method several explicit exact solutions including kink, soliton-like, periodic and rational solutions are obtained for (2+1)-dimensional variable coefficient broer--kaup system in quite a straightforward manner. the known solutions of riccati equation are used to construct new solutions for variable coefficient broe...
