Engineering economy set of mathematical techniques for economic evaluation of investment projects that present value and internal rate of return method are among the most important of these methods. Managers and investors have many reasons to using internal rate of return greater willingness shown. This is while the serious problems associated with using internal rate of return method. In recen...

The six-degree equations of flight in their classic form do not provide a proper physical perception due to a number of interferences. Nor do they render visible the important role of attack angles. In this study, attempts have been made to develop a complete set of 3D acceleration equations from the equations of normal and tangential acceleration αN=vωv, αt=v ̇. For this purpose, a coordinate s...

background and aim:  several reports have been published on the successful application of various bone substitute materials (bsm). appropriate physiologic and histologic characteristics and reactions of these materials against host cells are critically important. in this study, the biocompatibility of a new bone substitute material has been evaluated. materials and methods: in this experimental...

Biologically inspired complex systems are increasing. As the abstractions presented by biologically inspired systems, systems architects will be required to include the abstractions in their architecture in order to communicate the design to system implementers. The paper argues that in order to correctly present the architectures of bio inspired system a need of bio inspired views will be requ...

the simultaneous optimization of multiple responses is an important problem in the design of industrial processes in order to achieve improved quality. in this paper, we present a new metaheuristic approach including simulated annealing and particle swarm optimization to optimize all responses simultaneously. for the purpose of illustration and comparison, the proposed approach is applied to tw...

This paper investigates the development of a natural language (NL) interface for mixed initiative dialogues within a constrained domain and demonstrates the applicability of the functional approach to NL system development. The system consists of two major components, a natural language subsystem comprises a general-purpose parser that interprets a ‘plug and play’ tagged BNF grammar (which may ...
