this paper uses a psopc model based non-destructive damage identification procedure using frequency and modal data. the objective function formulation for the minimization problem is based on the frequency changes. the method is demonstrated by using a cantilever beam, four-bay plane truss and two-bay two-story plane frame with different scenarios. in this study, the modal data are provided nume...

Sink location is considered as a basic service in geographic routing in wireless sensor networks. Obtaining the location of sink node by source node using an efficient method with low complexity has always been a challenging issue in research. In this paper, a sink location algorithm based on Fano plane is proposed. The research challenge is how to ensure the intersection of two SLQ (Location Q...

the purpose of this paper is to show that the ideas and techniques of the classical methods of finding stability, such as the criteria of leonhard and nyquist, can be used to derive simple algorithm to verify stability. this is enhanced by evaluating the argument of the characteristic equation of a linear system in the neighbourhood of the origin of the complex plane along the imaginary axis

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...

The minimum crossing number problem is among the oldest and most fundamental problems arising in the area of automatic graph drawing. In this paper, eight population-based meta-heuristic algorithms are utilized to tackle the minimum crossing number problem for two special types of graphs, namely complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs. A 2-page book drawing representation is employed for ...

In this paper, first a new algorithm for pole assignment of closed-loop multi-variable controllable systems in a prescribed region of the z-plane is presented. Then, robust state feedback controllers are designed by implementing a neural fuzzy system for the placement of closed-loop poles of a controllable system in a prescribed region in the left-hand side of z-plane. A new method based on the...
