using the electrostatic capacity of a condenser, the existence of a distance function on a finsler space is discussed. this distance function divides finsler spaces into the two classes, denoted here by i and ii. the topology generated by this distance on the finsler spaces of class ii coincides with its intrinsic topology. this work provides a natural extension of mathematical analysis tools n...

Let G be a group with identity e. Let R be a G-graded commutative ring and let M be a graded R-module. The graded classical prime spectrum Cl.Specg(M) is defined to be the set of all graded classical prime submodule of M. The Zariski topology on Cl.Specg(M); denoted by ϱg. In this paper we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for Cl.Specg(M) with the Zariski topology to be a Noetherian...

in this paper, a new cascaded multilevel inverter by capability of increasing the number of output voltage levels with reduced number of power switches is proposed. the proposed topology consists of series connection of a number of proposed basic multilevel units. in order to generate all voltage levels at the output, five different algorithms are proposed to determine the magnitude of dc volta...

Topology optimization has been an interesting area of research in recent years.  The main focus of this paper is to use an evolutionary swarm intelligence algorithm to perform Isogeometric Topology optimization of continuum structures.  A two-dimensional plate is analyzed statically and the nodal displacements are calculated.  The nodal displacements using Isogeometric analysis are found to be ...

This study focuses on the topology optimization of structures using a hybrid of level set method (LSM) incorporating sensitivity analysis and isogeometric analysis (IGA). First, the topology optimization problem is formulated using the LSM based on the shape gradient. The shape gradient easily handles boundary propagation with topological changes. In the LSM, the topological gradient method as ...
