A Novel Approach For Solving Volterra Integral Equations Involving Local Fractional Operator, Hassan K. Jassim Jun 2017

A Novel Approach For Solving Volterra Integral Equations Involving Local Fractional Operator, Hassan K. Jassim

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The paper presents an approximation method called local fractional variational iteration method (LFVIM) for solving the linear and nonlinear Volterra integral equations of the second kind with local fractional derivative operators. Some illustrative examples are discussed to demonstrate the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed method. Furthermore, this method does not require spatial discretization or restrictive assumptions and therefore reduces the numerical computation significantly. The results reveal that the local fractional variational iteration method is very effective and convenient to solve linear and nonlinear integral equations within local fractional derivative operators.

Stability Of Triangular Libration Points In The Sun - Jupiter System Under Szebehely’S Criterion, M. R. Hassan, Md. A. Hassan, M. Z. Ali

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In the present study, the classical fourth-order Runge-Kutta method with seventh-order automatic step-size control has been carried out to examine the stability of triangular libration points in the Sun-Jupiter system. The Sun is a highly luminous body and Jupiter is a highly spinning body, so radiation pressure of the Sun and oblateness of the Jupiter cannot be neglected. These factors must have some effects on the motion of the infinitesimal mass (spacecraft) and consequent effects on the stability of the triangular libration points. It is to be noted that in our problem, infinitesimal mass exerts no influence of attraction on …

Two Dimensional Kinematic Surface In Lorentz-Minkowski 5-Space With Constant Scalar Curvature, E. M. Solouma Jun 2017

Two Dimensional Kinematic Surface In Lorentz-Minkowski 5-Space With Constant Scalar Curvature, E. M. Solouma

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper we analyzed the problem of investigating locally the scalar curvature of the two dimensional kinematic surfaces foliated by the homothetic motion of an eight curve in Lorentz-Minkowski 5-space Ls. We express the scalar curvature of the corresponding two dimensional kinematic surfaces as the quotient of hyperbolic functions {sinh mv, cosh mv }. From that point, we derive the necessary and sufficient conditions that the coefficients of hyperbolic functions vanished identically. Additionally, an example is given to show two dimensional kinematic surfaces with constant scalar curvature.

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Circulant matrices over finite fields are widely used in cryptographic hash functions, Lattice based cryptographic functions and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). Maximum distance separable codes over finite field GF2 have vital a role for error control in both digital communication and storage systems whereas maximum distance separable matrices over finite field GF2 are used in block ciphers due to their properties of diffusion. Rhotrices are represented in the form of coupled matrices. In the present paper, we discuss the circulant- like rhotrices and then construct the maximum distance separable rhotrices over finite fields.

Effect Of Buoyancy And Magnetic Field On Unsteady Convective Diusion Of Solute In A Boussinesq Stokes Suspension Bounded By Porous Beds, Nirmala P. Ratchagar, R. Vijayakumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Hydromagnetic free and forced convection in a parallel plate channel bounded by porous bed and transverse magnetic field has been considered. When there is a uniform axial temperature variation along the walls, the primary flow shows incipient flow reversal at the upper plate for an increase in temperature along that plate. Similarly flow reversal at the lower plate occurs with a decrease in temperature along that plate. The magnetic field, arising as a body couple in the governing equations is shown to increase the axis dispersion coefficient. The effect of various physical parameters such as Hartmann number, Grashof number, porous …

A Simple Linear Time Algorithm For Computing A 1-Median On Cactus Graphs, Kien T. Nguyen, Pham V. Chien, Ly H. Hai, Huynh D. Quoc Jun 2017

A Simple Linear Time Algorithm For Computing A 1-Median On Cactus Graphs, Kien T. Nguyen, Pham V. Chien, Ly H. Hai, Huynh D. Quoc

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We address the problem of finding a 1-median on a cactus graph. The problem has already been solved in linear time by the algorithms of Burkard and Krarup (1998), and Lan and Wang (2000). These algorithms are complicated and need efforts. Hence, we develop in this paper a simpler algorithm. First, we construct a condition for a cycle that contains a 1-median or for a vertex that is indeed a 1-median of the cactus. Based on this condition, we localize the search for deriving a 1-median on the underlying cactus. Complexity analysis shows that the approach runs in linear time.
