In this study, we introduce conditions for the existence of solutions for an iterative functional differential equation of fractional order. We prove that the solutions of the above class of fractional differential equations are bounded by Tsallis entropy. The method depends on the concept of Hyers-Ulam stability. The arbitrary order is suggested in the sense of Riemann-Liouville calculus.

The cross-entropy method [2] is a simple but efficient method for global optimization. In this paper we provide two online variants of the basic CEM, together with a proof of convergence.

this paper concentrates on a new procedure which experimentally recognises gears and bearings faults of a typical gearbox system using a least square support vector machine (lssvm). two wavelet selection criteria maximum energy to shannon entropy ratio and maximum relative wavelet energy are used and compared to select an appropriate wavelet for feature extraction. the fault diagnosis method co...

The current study focuses on the problem of determining investment attrаctiveness of countries by means of monitoring regional stock markets. The method of using the permutation entropy as a model of investment attractiveness estimation is suggested. We have calculated the permutation entropy for the time series of stock markets of countries for the period from 2005 to 2018. The countries with ...

The present study carefully examined entropy generation during wustite pellet reduction to sponge iron. The finite volume method was used to solve the governing equations. The grain model was used to simulate the reaction rate. The reactant gases including carbon monoxide and hydrogen were converted to water and carbon dioxide after wustite reduction. Entropy is generated by heat transfer, mass...

2-d and axisymmetric navier-stokes equations are solved using reiman-roe solver with different limiters for second-order accurate schemes. the results were obtained for supersonic viscous flows over semi-infinite axisymmetric and 2-d bodies. the free stream mach numbers were 7.78 and 16.34. the stability of roe method with different limiters and entropy conditions were considered. the results s...

due to the importance of “service quality and customerssatisfaction” subject, this study seeks to investigate and prioritize thefactors which are effective on service quality and customers satisfactionusing grey relational analysis (gra) method. in the case of statisticalpopulations with large sizes, none of the other methods can competewith gra from the viewpoint of calculation accuracy. the s...

This study discusses the application of Taguchi method in assessing minimum entropy generation and maximum heat transfer rate for natural convection in an enclosure embedded with isothermal cylinder. The simulations were planned based on Taguchi’s L25 orthogonal array with each trial performed under different conditions of position and aspect ratio (AR) of the cylinder. The thermal lattice Bolt...
