This paper presents three new systematic approaches for computing coefficient matrices of the Heffron-Phillips multi-machine model (K1, …, K6). The amount of computations needed for conventional and three new approaches are compared by counting number of multiplications and divisions. The advantages of new approaches are: (1) their computation burdens are less than 73 percent of that of convent...

simulation of turbulence boiling, generation of vapour and predication of its behaviour are still subject to debate in the two-phase flow area and they receive a high level of worldwide attention. in this study, a new arrangement of the three dimensional governing equations for turbulence two-phase flow with heat and mass transfer are derived by using ensemble averaging two-fluid model and util...

Supply Chain (SC) design problems are often characterized with uncertainty related to the decisionmaking parameters. The Stochastic Goal Programming (SGP) was one of the aggregating procedures proposed to solve the SC problems. However, the SGP does not integrate explicitly the Decision-Maker’s preferences. The aim of this paper is to utilize the Chance Constrained Programming and the Satisfact...

In this paper, we use Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for abstracting the style of a composer and for recognizing it out of an unknown excerpt. We employed a data set of 605 musical themes written by five well-known composers (Mozart, Beethoven, Dvorak, Stravinsky, Beatles). A preliminary investigation based on descriptive statistics served the purpose of choosing a group of suitable music represen...

this paper deals with the interfacial effects of silica fume (sf) and styrene-butadiene polymer (sbr) on compressive strength of concrete. analyzing the compressive strength results of 32 concrete mixes performed over two water-binder ratios (0.35, 0.45), four percentages replacement of silica fume (0%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%) and four percentages of sbr (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%) were investigated. a mathemati...

Frequency response diagrams of a system include detailed and recognizable information about the structural and parameter effects of the transfer function model of the system. The information are qualitatively and quantitatively obtainable from simultaneous consideration of amplitude ratio and phase information. In this paper, some rules and relationships are presented for making use of frequenc...

AAII.com ranks four stock-picking models by Buffet, Graham, Greenblatt, and O’Neil (CAN SLIM) that consistently outperform the S&P 500. Implementing these requires complicated procedures an average investor might find challenging. Also, website does not identify companies comprising each portfolio or provide statistical analyses. We show how inexpert can easily implement models. Given CAN S...
