In this paper, we study fuzzy substructures in connection withHv-structures. The original idea comes from geometry, especially from thetwo dimensional Euclidean vector space. Using parameters, we obtain a largenumber of hyperstructures of the group-like or ring-like types. We connect,also, the mentioned hyperstructures with the theta-operations to obtain morestrict hyperstructures, as Hv-groups...

The automated welding systems, have received much attention in recent years, because they are highly suitable not only to increase the quality and productivity, but also to decrease manufacturing time and cost for a given product. To get the desired quality welds in automated welding system is challenging, an algorithm is needed that has complete control over the relevant process parameters in ...

We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard Abstract Recent years have seen an increased interest in cloth simulation. There has been little analysis, however, of the parameters controlling simulation behaviour. In this thesis, we present two primary contributions. First, we discuss a series of experiments investigating the influence of the parameters of a popular cloth simulat...

Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a plant compound derived from glucosinolates, found in cruciferous vegetables. Researchers have indicated that I3C shows great promise as a cancer preventative and hormone-balancing agent. HyperChem 7.5 software was used for quantum mechanical calculations. The geometry optimization was carried out using Ab Initio method. QSAR parameters were generated with semi empir...

in this paper, single, bi-layered and three-layered tube hydroforming processes were numerically simulated using the finite element method. it was found that the final bulges heights resulted from the models were in good agreement with the experimental results. three types of modeling were kept with the same geometry, tube material and process parameters to be compared between the obtained hydr...

A method of correction and optimization of stamping processes is proposed. The experiment design and finite element methods are interfaced. This is applied on a part showing large springback. After the determination of the important process parameters to study, a fractional factorial experiment design is built and the corresponding numerical simulations are carried out. Their results are the de...

Based on the notion of an order function we construct and determine the parameters of a class of error-correcting evaluation codes. This class includes the one-point algebraic geometry codes as well as the generalized Reed-Muller codes, and the parameters are determined without using heavy machinery from algebraic geometry.

Sedimentation is one of the most important problems in harbors that results in considerable economic costs. Harbor planforms affects the flow pattern in the harbor basin and consequently, plays an important role in sediment transport and sedimentation. In the present study, a two dimensional depth-averaged hydrodynamic and sediment transport model has been developed to investigate the effect of...
