-Surface waves with a frequency of 0.5-2.5 Hz were generated on a homogeneously fluidized bed. The propagation velocity and rate of attenuation of the induced pressure fluctuations were measured using signal averaging techniques. The measured wave velocity and attenuation rate correlated well with predictions based on a theory which considers the bed as an incompressible liquid with low viscosi...

This paper proposes the concepts of a neutrosophic number and a trapezoidal neutrosophic number (TNN), the basic operational relations of TNNs, and the score function of TNN. Then, we develop a trapezoidal neutrosophic weighted arithmetic averaging (TNWAA) operator and a trapezoidal neutrosophic weighted geometric averaging (TNWGA) operator to aggregate TNN information and investigate their pro...

We develop a new decision making approach for dealing with uncertain information and apply it in tourism management. We use a new aggregation operator that uses the uncertain weighted average (UWA) and the uncertain induced ordered weighted averaging (UIOWA) operator in the same formulation. We call it the uncertain induced ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging (UIOWAWA) operator. We ...

Xu and Da [Z.S. Xu, Q.L. Da, The uncertain OWA operator, International Journal of Intelligent Systems, 17 (2002) 569–575] introduced the uncertain ordered weighted averaging (UOWA) operator to aggregate the input arguments taking the form of intervals rather than exact numbers. In this paper, we develop some dependent uncertain ordered weighted aggregation operators, including dependent uncerta...

Previous studies have demonstrated that the perceived direction of motion of a visual stimulus can be decoded from the pattern of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) responses in occipital cortex using multivariate analysis methods (Kamitani and Tong, 2006). One possible mechanism for this is a difference in the sampling of direction selective cortical columns between voxels, implying ...

The objective of this work is to present a triangular interval type-2 (TIT2) intuitionistic fuzzy sets and their corresponding aggregation operators, namely, TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging, TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging and TIT2 intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid averaging based on Frank norm operation laws. Furthermore, based on these operators, an approach to mul...

In this contribution, selected results from [1–3] are presented in a compact and simplified way. addition, the variety of fiber orientation tensors is used to determine maximum deviation direction-dependent Young's modulus, which can arise if only second-order directional information included specific meanfield homogenization. Focusing on special case planar distributions, identified [1] consid...

In wireless channel the noise has a zero mean. This channel property can be used in the enhancement of the noise performance in the digital receivers by oversampling the received signal and calculating the decision variable based on the time average of more than one sample of the received signal. The averaging process will reduce the effect of the noise in the decision variable that will approa...

The café wall pattern is composed of rows of alternating light and dark tiles, and alternate rows are shifted by one fourth of a cycle. The rows of tiles are separated by narrow horizontal mortar lines whose luminance is between those of the dark and the light tiles. Although the mortar lines are physically parallel, they are perceived to be tilted, which is known as the café wall illusion. In ...

The simultaneous-sequential method was used to test the processing capacity of statistical summary representations both within and between feature dimensions. Sixteen gratings varied with respect to their size and orientation. In Experiment 1, the gratings were equally divided into four separate smaller sets, one of which with a mean size that was larger or smaller than the other three sets, an...
