In this work, we used a grain-based numerical model based on the concept of lattice. The modelling was done to simulate the lab experiments carried out on the mortar samples. Also the analytical solutions corresponding to the viscosity-dominated regime were used to estimate the fracture length and width, and the results obtained were compared with the numerical simulations. As the analytical so...

The hybrid fuzzy differential equations have a wide range of applications in science and engineering. We consider the problem of nding their numerical solutions by using a novel hybrid method based on fuzzy neural network. Here neural network is considered as a part of large eld called neural computing or soft computing. The proposed algorithm is illustrated by numerical examples and the result...

‎In this paper‎, ‎the numerical solutions of linear and nonlinear Volterra integral‎ ‎equations with nonvanishing delay are considered by two methods‎. ‎The methods are developed by means of‎ ‎the sinc approximation with the single exponential (SE) and double exponential (DE)‎ ‎transformations‎. ‎The existence and uniqueness of sinc-collocation solutions for these equations are provided‎. ‎Thes...

Many time-varying phenomena of various fields in science and engineering can be modeled as a stochastic differential equations, so investigation of conditions for existence of solution and obtain the analytical and numerical solutions of them are important. In this paper, the Adomian decomposition method for solution of the stochastic differential equations are improved.  Uniqueness and converg...

the numerical methods are of great importance for approximating the solutions of nonlinear ordinary or partial differential equations, especially when the nonlinear differential equation under consideration faces difficulties in obtaining its exact solution. in this latter case, we usually resort to one of the efficient numerical methods. in this paper, the chebyshev collocation method is sugge...

in this paper, we introduce a family of fractional-order chebyshev functions based on the classical chebyshev polynomials. we calculate and derive the operational matrix of derivative of fractional order $gamma$ in the caputo sense using the fractional-order chebyshev functions. this matrix yields to low computational cost of numerical solution of fractional order differential equations to the ...

This paper provides an incremental layerwise finite element formulation for the viscoelastic analysis of multilayered pavements.  The constitutive behavior of asphalt concrete is represented by the Prony series. Layerwise finite element has been shown to provide an efficient and accurate tool for the numerical simulation of laminated structures. Most of the previous research on numerical simula...

in this article, a numerical approximation to the solution of the newell-whitehead equation (nwe) and cauchy problem of ill-posed non-linear diffusion equation have been studied. the presented scheme is obtained by using the derivative of the cubic b-spline quasi-interpolation (bsqi) to approximate the spatial derivative of the dependent variable and first order forward difference to approximat...
