Super- and sub-additive transformations of aggregation functions have been recently introduced by Greco, Mesiar, Rindone and v{S}ipeky [The superadditive and the subadditive transformations of integrals and aggregation functions, {it Fuzzy Sets and Systems} {bf 291} (2016), 40--53]. In this article we give a survey of the recent development regarding the existence of aggregation functions with ...

the main objective of this study is to investigate the production factors productivity in large manufacturing sub-sectors. for this purpose, using statistical data for period 1972-2004, we have tried to study and analyze the trend and level of production factors productivity (partial and total productivity) in each sub-sectors classified according to isic two digits code. the average and margin...

Background & Aim: The use of herbal extracts as safe and effective factors for eradicating of stores pests has attracted much attention. In this paper, the bio-effects of fumigation and repellent effects of essential oil of Eucalyptus globolus were investigated on red flour beetle. Experimental: In this study, the toxicity, fumigation and repellency contacts were assayed by topical ap...

Wallflower (Erysimum cheiri (L.) Crantz) is a common medicinal plant in Persian medicine and nowadays some traditional products from wallflower are consumed on global markets. The aim of the present study was to study the phytochemical constituents of wallflower and discuss safety evaluations related to the traditional wallflower preparations. Major Persian scholars (e.g. Avicenna) boo...

background: there is unprecedented increase in the processing and packaging of many plant materials into food supplements, herbal medicine, skincare and cosmetic products for human needs. baphia nitida is used for topical skincare products. toluene, a toxic aromatic solvent, is increasingly being used in the production of these skincare and cosmetic products in many industries. this study asses...

We consider functions F : R n ! R n which are homogeneous and nonexpansive in thè 1 norm. We refer to these as topical functions. We study the existence of the cycle time vector (F) = lim k!1 F k (~ x)=k, which, if it exists, is independent of ~ x 2 R n. For a restricted class of topical functions, the cycle time is known to be implicated in the existence of xed points and this provides the mot...

Convergent product is an assembly shape concept integrating functions and sub-functions to form a final product. To conceptualize the convergent product problem, a web-based network is considered in which a collection of base functions and sub-functions configure the nodes and each arc in the network is considered to be a link between two nodes. The aim is to find an optimal tree of functionali...
