A unified method for simulating multiphase flows using an exactly mass, momentum, and energy conserving Cell-Integrated SemiLagrangian advection algorithm is presented. The deforming material boundaries are represented using the moment-of-fluid method. The new algorithm uses a semi-implicit pressure update scheme that asymptotically preserves the standard incompressible pressure projection meth...

Bivariate semi-logistic and Marshall-Olkin bivariate semi-logistic distributions are introduced. Some properties of these distributions are studied. First order autoregressive processes with bivariate semi-logistic and Marshall-Olkin bivariate semi-logistic distributions as marginals are introduced and studied.

in this paper, a multi-period and multi-resource operating room (or) scheduling and rescheduling problem with elective and semi-elective (semi-urgent) patients is addressed. a scheduling-rescheduling framework based on the so-called rolling horizon approach is proposed to solve the problem. the core of the proposed framework is a novel proposed mixed-integer linear programming (milp) model with...

quantitative analysis of production through evaluation of inputs consumption quantity is of main principles in agricultural policies, which is followed by increasing in production through optimal use of resources. this study has been conducted to estimate different types of production functions in mechanized farms of broiler chicks located in gorgan city. cross-section survey data were gathered...

the efficiency of three statistical models, ahp surface-weighted density bivariate (semi-quantitative models), stepwise multivariate regression and logistic multivariate regression models were compared in chehel-chai watershed in golestan province, iran. in current study the hazard map was prepared according to the top model of landslide hazard map. chehel-chai watershed is located as one of go...

this study investigated the effectiveness of heat treatment (50°c, 60°c and 70°c for 1 h and 2h at 75-80% rh) and cold treatment (0°c and-5°c for 24h and 48h) in the control of storage pests in zahedi and piyarom dates. before and after each treatment, the number of surviving adults, larvae, pupae and eggs were recorded and the percentage of infestation was calculated. the dates were treated at...

the polynomial interpolation in one dimensional space r is an important method to approximate the functions. the lagrange and newton methods are two well known types of interpolations. in this work, we describe the semi inherited interpolation for approximating the values of a function. in this case, the interpolation matrix has the semi inherited lu factorization.
