To my Mother and Father. It's all because of you. Thank you! " Doing science is not such a barrier to feeling or such a dehumanizing influence as is often made out. It does not take the beauty from nature. The only rules of scientific method are honest observations and accurate logic. To be great science it must also be guided by a judgment, almost an instinct, for what is worth studying. No on...

in this paper, the nonlinear free vibrations of thin symmetric and non-symmetric cross-ply composite plates subjected to biaxial initial stresses are investigated. because of their excellent properties such as specific strength and specific stiffness, composite plates have wide applications in aerospace and mechanical structures. based on von-karman's strain-displacement relations and using gal...

The homotopy perturbation method is a powerful device for solving a wide variety of problems arising in many scientific applications. In this paper, we investigate several integral equations by using T-stability of the Homotopy perturbation method investigates for solving integral equations. Some illustrative examples are presented to show that the Homotopy perturbation method is T-stable for s...

We study the ever more integrated and ever more unbalanced trade relationships between European countries. To better capture the complexity of economic networks, we propose two global measures that assess the trade integration and the trade imbalances of the European countries. These measures are the network (or indirect) counterparts to traditional (or direct) measures such as the trade-to-GDP...

the current paper focuses on some analytical techniques to solve the non-linear duffing oscillator with large nonlinearity. four different methods have been applied for solution of the equation of motion; the variational iteration method, he’s parameter expanding method, parameterized perturbation method, and the homotopy perturbation method. the results reveal that approximation obtained by th...

Semi-solid materials undergo strain localization and shear band formation as a result of granular nature of semi-solid deformation. In the present study, to analyze the shear localization, a unified viscoplastic constitutive model was developed for the homogeneous flow. Then, a linearized analysis of the stability performed by examining the necessary condition for the perturbation growth. For t...

In this paper, Elzaki Homotopy Perturbation Method is employed for solving linear and nonlinear differential equations with a variable coffecient. This method is a combination of Elzaki transform and Homotopy Perturbation Method. The aim of using Elzaki transform is to overcome the deficiencies that mainly caused by unsatised conditions in some semi-analytical methods such as Homotopy Perturbat...

in this paper, first a new homotopy perturbation method for solving a fractional order nonlinear telegraph equation is introduced. by applying the proposed method, the nonlinear equation is translated to linear equations for per iteration of homotopy perturbation method. then, the obtained problems are solved with separation method. in the examples, it is illustrated that the exact solution is ...

In this work we present a multi-neighborhood, parallel local search approach for the Multi-Mode Resource-Constrained Multi-Project Scheduling Problem (MMRCMPSP). The search in multiple neighborhoods is conducted in parallel with dynamic load balancing among processors. Our solver works with an indirect solution representation and navigates through space of the feasible solutions by combining he...
