This article deals with the Hadamard instability of the so-called μ(I) model of dense rapidly sheared granular flow, as reported recently by Barker et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 779, 2015, pp. 794–818). The present paper presents a more comprehensive study of the linear stability of planar simple shearing and pure shearing flows, with account taken of convective Kelvin wavevector stretching by t...

Rios and Selinger have recently proposed a categorical model for the quantum programming language Proto-Quipper-M, which is an important fragment of the Quipper language. In this work, we describe an extension to their categorical model with the additional property that it is DCPOenriched, bringing us closer to modeling general recursion in the language. Similar to their model, our model exhibi...

in this study, application of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) in forecasting three perspectives (1, 2, and 4 years) ahead of iran’s agricultural products export was compared with arima as the most common econometrics linear forecasting method. for this purpose, iran’s agricultural products export revenues related to 1959-2010, and forecast performance measures such as r2, mad, and...

Plasma turbulence in a linear device is explored for the first time with three-dimensional global two-fluid simulations, focusing on the plasma parameters of the Large Plasma Device. Three instabilities are present in the simulations: the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability, a sheath-driven instability, and a resistive drift wave instability. The Kelvin-Helmholtz mode is shown to dominate the transpor...

a total number of 116,984 weight records belonging to 12,397 baluchi lambs reared in abbas abad breeding station during years 1978-2008 were used for phenotypic evaluation of maximum daily growth (mdg) and analysis of environmental factors affecting this trait. the initial data were performed by foxpro program and then gompertz non-linear model was fitted on the weight records of individual lam...

A theoretical analysis is made of the large-scale, stationary, zonally asymmetric motions that result from heating and the orographic effect in the tropical atmosphere. The release of latent heat dominates the sensible and radiational heating and the latter two effects are ignored. The first linear model is a continuous stratified atmosphere in solid westward rotation with no dissipation. Of al...

For understanding the structure of an MHD-scale Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) in a non-linear stage, we have performed two-dimensional two-fluid simulations including finite electron inertial effects. In the twofluid system, magnetic reconnection occurs spontaneously because the ’frozen-in’ condition can be broken by the electron inertial effects. When an MHD-scale velocity shear exists, a...

The Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability is a basic hydrodynamic phenomenon in sheared flows. Magnetic fields can strongly influence the linear and non-linear behavior of this instability. A recent full parameter study (Paper I) of the growth and saturation of the KH instability in two-dimensional (2D) compressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) augmented the vast body of knowledge on magnetically ind...

an adaptive version of growing and pruning rbf neural network has been used to predict the system output and implement linear model-based predictive controller (lmpc) and non-linear model-based predictive controller (nmpc) strategies. a radial-basis neural network with growing and pruning capabilities is introduced to carry out on-line model identification.an unscented kalman filter (ukf) algor...

This paper describes our experimental testing of linear viscoelastic creep behaviours in HamiMelon. Experimental data shows that HamiMelon has complex viscoelastic property which cannot be well described by the standard model. Consequently, this study develops a fractional derivative model to describe such complex viscoelastic creep behaviours of Hami Melon. The analytical creep function of the...
