Several radial basis function based methods contain a free shape parameter which has  a crucial role in the accuracy of the methods. Performance evaluation of this parameter in different  functions with various data has always been a topic of study. In the present paper, we consider studying the methods which determine an optimal value for the shape parameter in interpolations of radial basis  ...

in this paper, natural convection heat transfer over a vertical plate in a darcy porous medium saturated with a nanofluid subject to heat generation/absorption was theoretically studied. the governing partial differential equations were transformed to a set of ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations and solved using finite difference method. the influence of parametric ...

Present study explores the effect of Hall current, non-linear radiation, irregular heat source/sink on magnetohydrodynamic flow of Casson nanofluid past a nonlinear stretching sheet. Viscous and Joule dissipation are incorporated in the energy equation. An accurate numerical solution of highly nonlinear partial differential equations, describing the flow, heat and mass transfer...

Efficient Global Optimization (EGO) algorithm with Kriging model is stable and effective for an expensive black-box function. However, How to get a more global optimal point on the basis of surrogates has been concerned in simulation-based design optimization. In order to better solve a black-box unconstrained optimization problem, this paper introduces a new EGO method named improved generaliz...

‎In the present paper‎, ‎optimal heating of temperature field which is modelled as a boundary optimal control problem‎, ‎is investigated in the uncertain environments and then it is solved numerically‎. ‎In physical modelling‎, ‎a partial differential equation with stochastic input and stochastic parameter are applied as the constraint of the optimal control problem‎. ‎Controls are implemented ...
