Rotating machinery support design with the aim of reducing the force transmitted to the foundation has significant importance regarding the various applications of these machineries. In this paper presents a rapid approximate method for calculating the optimum support flexibility and damping of flexible rotors to minimize force transmissibility in the vicinity of the rotor first critical speed....

during recent years, determining appropriate strategy in the supply chain has become an important strategic issue. however, the nature of these decisions usually is complex and unstructured. to determine the best supply chain strategy, many quantitative and qualitative attributes such as cost, responsiveness and flexibility can be taken into account. in order to approximate the human subjective...

because of high cost of drilling and analysis of samples, it needs to predict gold and silvers based on pathfinder such as as, sb, cd, pb and zn and decrease the cost and time exploration project implementation. in this paper, the model based on a multilayer perceptron artificial neural network (mlp-ann) optimized by invasive weed optimization algorithm (iwo) to predict of gold and silver in za...

in this paper, the approximate solution of the differential system modeling hiv infection of cd4+ t cells isobtained by a reliable algorithm based on an adaptation of the standard variational iteration method (vim), which is called the multi-stage variational iteration method(msvim). a comparison between msvim and the fourthorder runge-kutta method (rk4-method) reveal that the proposed techniqu...

inventory control is one of the most important issues in supply chain management. in this paper, a three-echelon production, distribution, inventory system composed of one producer, a set of wholesalers and retailers is considered. costumers' demands can be approximated by a normal distribution and the inventory policy is a kind of continuous review (r, q). in this paper, a model based on ...

in this paper, the detector of moving target in mimo radar with widely separated antenna in the presence of α-stable clutter is proposed. due to the complexity of unknown parameter estimation in the presence of target, the rao test is applied. the α-stable model is a general model that can applied to different environments with appropriate selection of parameters. the problem with this model is...

1. Introduction Hormones, such as luteinizing hormone (LH), are secreted into the blood in short bursts, called pulses, and removed by a decay process. Using hormone assays from blood samples obtained at equally spaced intervals, investigators study secretion characteristics such as pulse frequency and amplitude to learn whether various diseases affect hormone secretion. Approximate entropy (Ap...

We develop a randomized approximation algorithm for the size of set union problem |A1∪A2∪...∪Am|, which is given list sets A1,...,Am with approximate mi Ai mi∈((1−βL)|Ai|, (1+βR)|Ai|), and biased random generators probability Prob(x=RandomElement(Ai))∈[1−αL|Ai|,1+αR|Ai|] each input element x∈Ai, where i=1,2,...,m αL,αR,βL,βR∈(0,1). The ratio |A1∪A2∪...∪Am| in range [(1−ϵ)(1−αL)(1−βL),(1+ϵ)(1+αR...

in this paper, using the best proximity theorems for an extensionof brosowski's theorem. we obtain other results on farthest points. finally, wedene the concept of e- farthest points. we shall prove interesting relationshipbetween the -best approximation and the e-farthest points in normed linearspaces (x; ||.||). if z in w is a e-farthest point from an x in x, then z is also a-best ...

Many of the physical phenomena, like friction, backlash, drag, and etc., which appear in mechanical systems are inherently nonlinear and have destructive effects on the control systems behavior. Generally, they are modeled by hard nonlinearities. In this paper, two different methods are proposed to cope with the effects of hard nonlinearities which exist in friction various models. Simple inver...
