This paper presents an integrative agent model for adaptive human-aware information presentation. Within the agent model, meant to support humans in demanding tasks, a domain model is integrated which consists of a dynamical model for human functioning, and a model determining the effects of information presentation. The integrative agent model applies model-based reasoning methods to the domai...

Herein paper compares the analytical model with the FEM based numerical model of the axisymmetric bending of circular sandwich plates. Also, the paper describes equations of the circular symmetrical sandwich plates bending with isotropic face sheets and the nonlinear elastic core material. The method of constructing an analytical solution of nonlinear differential equations has been described. ...

because of inhomogeneity and anisotropy of composite materials, defining a unique fatigue criterion to be suitable for different loading conditions is much more difficult in comparison with traditional materials. for this reason many tests on evaluating the damages such as crack density, stiffness reduction and residual strength are used by various researchers to monitor the fatigue process. in...

this paper presents a model for prediction of the mechanical behavior of sand-gravel mixtures using generalized plasticity and critical state concepts. proposed model is based on the difference between critical state lines of sand and sand-gravel mixture in e-lnp' plane. a generalized plasticity model is considered as the base model for sandy soil. its state parameter, dilation rate and ha...

This study was undertaken to evaluate a novel aerobic wastewater treatment model for the remediation of refinery effluents and to assess the removal efficiency of Bulkholderia cepacia strain AJI and Corynebacterium kutscheri strain AJ2 to clean oil waste from petrochemical company. Wastewater quality parameters including pH, BOD5, COD, TDS, OIL & GREASE, PHENOL concentration, TPH and THC were m...

with the complexity and amount of information in a wide variety of comparative performance reports in poultry production, making a decision is difficult. this problem is overcomed only when all data can be put into a common unit. for this purpose, five different decision making analysis approaches including  maximin, equally likely, weighted average, ordered weighted averages and technique for ...
