The weights of the criteria are determined using the ITARA approach, and the RAM method is used to rank the alternatives. these methods are used under the neutrosophic sets to deal with vague and uncertainty data. This study uses the Probabilistic Simplified Neutrosophic sets to overcome …

Effective Approach To Shock Absorption Performance Evaluation Of Mechanical Component Springs Using The Single Valued Trapezoidal Neutrosophic Numbers For Structural Stability, Hanwei Qu, Caiyun Duan, Jiancheng Yu

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

We propose a decision-making approach for shock absorption performance evaluation of mechanical component springs. The main goal of this research is to provide a decision support system that will help decision makers to select the best alternative to alleviate this ambiguity. The selection of the best alternative is done using the multi-attribute group decision-making approach. The hybrid model is created utilizing two-step logarithmic normalization (ARLON) and Single Valued Trapezoidal Neutrosophic Numbers (SVTNNs) for MEREC and alternative ranking. The criteria's relevance levels are ascertained using the innovative SVTNN-MEREC approach. The alternatives are ranked using the recently developed SVTNN-ARLON technique. The suggested …

Fixed Point Theorems In Neutrosophic Fuzzy Metric Space And A Characterization To Its Completeness, Samriddhi Ghosh, Ramakant Bhardwaj, Satyendra Narayan, Sonam Sonam

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

The present research work aims to establish some basic conventional fixed point theorems such as the Banach fixed point theorem, Edelstein fixed point theorem and Kannan fixed point theorem, for a recently introduced topological space, known as the neutrosophic fuzzy metric space. The Kannan fixed point theorem has also further been classified into two categories namely, (1/2)−Kannan and (1)−Kannan fixed point theorems. Also the concept of semi-metric in the said space has been introduced, and along with it the results hence obtained are used to characterize the completeness of the mentioned space. To the best of known literatures, this type …

Application Of The Neutrosophic Fuzzy Sets In Profession Determination, K. Rajesh, S. Moorthy, A. Jeeva, D. Moganraj

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

We present several operations, such as algebraic sum, algebraic product, and arithmetic mean, over the neutrosophic sets extended with moment in time and sketch numbers. Through mathematical illustrations, we explore various properties and apply this concept to professional decision-making. Existing neutrosophic set (NS) and fuzzy set theories lack the capability to dynamically account for time and evolving circumstances. Many approaches fail to provide satisfactory solutions for handling evolving decision criteria or dynamic uncertainties. While operations like algebraic sum, algebraic product, and arithmetic mean exist for neutrosophic sets, their adaptation and extension to dynamic and temporal dimensions (moment in time and …

Solving A Global-Mixed Integer Signomial Geometric Fractional Programming Problem, J. Shirin Nejad, M. Saraj

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This article addresses mixed integer fractional signomial geometric programming (MIFSGP) problems, which have been widely used in industrial design. In this paper, first, we convert fractional signomial programming into a nonfractional problem so that it maintains its geometric structure. Then, convex relaxation is used to reach a mixed integer global solution. Although, in many cases, we obtain a better objective function value with this process, designers may still be dissatisfied with the rupture between the original objective function value and the relaxed value. Therefore, we apply a spatial branch and bound algorithm to decrease that distance to an acceptable extent …

Risk Assessment Of Municipal Water Supply And Drainage Project Costs Using Neutrosophic Numbers, Huihui Gao, Kun Qian

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Risk assessment of municipal water supply and drainage project costs is a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. Water supply and drainage have various conflict criteria. Two MCDM methods are used in this study such as SIWEC and MACONT. The SIWEC method is used to compute the criteria weights and the MACONT method is used to rank the alternatives. These methods are used under the trapezoidal fuzzy neutrosophic sets (TFNSs) to deal with uncertainty and vague information. Eight criteria and eleven alternatives ate used to evaluate the MCDM problem. The sensitivity analysis is conducted to show the stability of the ranks. …

Edge Connectivity Of A Neutrosophic Graph, Aparna Tripathy, Amaresh Chandra Panada, Siva Prasad Behera, Bhabani S. Mohanty

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Neutosophic graphs are an extension of fuzzy and intuitionistic fuzzy graphs by including the uncertainty, vagueness, and indeterminacy that are normal in the real world. This paper looks into the edge connectivity of a neutrosophic graph, which is a basic parameter that shows how strong and fault-tolerant networks are that are modelled by these graphs. Edge connectivity, which is the smallest number of edges that need to be taken away from a graph to make it trivial or disconnected, is a key concept in figuring out how strong and resilient networks are in many situations. This paper also addresses computational …

LAII Conference Room

Join the LAII and the Department of Political Science for a workshop on op-ed writing.

One of the most important components of a liberal arts education is learning how to conduct research and prepare academic papers. However, for those interested in working in policy, one of the most important skills that they can learn is how to distill the complex information learned through research into a condensed format that is more likely to be read by both policymakers and the general public—particularly through op-eds. This is particularly true for those that …

Language In Context: Exploring The Learning Experiences Of Culturally And Linguistically Diverse Students In Stem After-School Program, Gulnara Kussainova

Language, Literacy, and Sociocultural Studies ETDs

This study examines how language shapes interactions and learning outcomes for culturally and linguistically diverse middle school girls and their facilitators in an after-school STEM program. Grounded in the multiple identities approach, it explores how participants navigate hierarchies, build relationships, and engage through their multiple identities. Using Systemic Functional Linguistics, it analyzes linguistic strategies to reveal how language empowers or marginalizes. Focusing on interpersonal meanings of tenor, it examines expressions of authority and autonomy. The findings emphasize how participants’ multiple identities—such as gender, race, language, and cultural background—shape their STEM learning experiences. By exploring the intersection of linguistic and social …

Analytical Electrochemistry Of Nickel, Platinum, And Platinum-Nickel Electrodepositions, Kyle James Troche

Nanoscience and Microsystems ETDs

Nickel and platinum electrodeposits have numerous applications in corrosion and wear-resistant coatings, electronic connectors, heat resistance, metal finishings, and catalysts. The addition of additives can vastly change the morphology of the deposition. Electrokinetic parameters can be calculated by conducting rotating disk electrode (RDE) experiments along with Koutecky-Levich analysis. Significant challenges need to be addressed to deposit uniform films of Pt-Ni alloys from a single co-deposition bath. The main challenge is platinum’s catalytic property to reduce the overpotential for the hydrogen generation reaction. An Investigation into methanol and carbon monoxide’s hydrogen generation reaction suppression was conducted. Electrodeposition of nickel, platinum, and …

Women's Work: Building Peace In War-Affected Communities Of Uganda And Sierra Leone, Jennifer Moore
