This paper studies the dynamic behavior of price elasticity and its effects on the overall profit. Although price elasticity has a significant effect on sales, its dynamics have not been examined so far in pricing models. In this paper, a simple pricing model is suggested in which, price elasticity is considered dynamic. The suggested pricing model is concerned with a monopolist that its object...

utilizing polymeric materials for damping mechanical waves is of great importance in various fields of applications such as military camouflage, prevention of structural vibrational energy transfer, and noise attenuation. this ability originates from segmental dynamics of chain-like polymer molecules. damping properties of styrene-butadiene rubbercontaining 10 wt% of monosize polystyrene partic...

a fundamental topic in computational fluid dynamics is the role of coordinate particularly for searching optimized coordinates. the objective of this study is the numerical modeling of supersonic flows using a new coordinate system i.e. unified coordinate system (ucs) uses moving mesh with motionless viewing window technique. ucs has an advantage over traditional coordinate systems (eulerian an...

Project managers are grappling with a variety of risks today as a result of increasing complexity and dynamics of projects in different stages of project life cycle. Thus, it seems quite necessary to employ an efficient risk management process that can overcome the shortcomings of traditional methods in order to handle such complexities and reach the optimal project management. This matter is e...

in this paper an optimal controller is proposed for a self-balancing electrical vehicle called segway pt. this vehicle has one platform and two wheels on the sides and the rider stands on the platform. a handlebar, as a navigator, is attached to the body of segway, with which the rider controls the vehicle. since segway uses electrical energy produced by batteries, resource consumption manageme...
