An Ore Adit Planning With The Help Of Three Dimensional Ore Body Modeling: A Case Study From Çulfa Çukuru Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag Deposit, Sinan Akiska, Elif Akiska Dec 2018

An Ore Adit Planning With The Help Of Three Dimensional Ore Body Modeling: A Case Study From Çulfa Çukuru Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag Deposit, Sinan Akiska, Elif Akiska

Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration

Çulfa Çukuru Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag mineralization has occurred along the metamorphic and metamorphic-dacitic volcanic rock contacts of the Sakarya zone on the Biga Peninsula. The base metal mineralization (Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag±Au) developed along the contact and fracture planes of these rocks can be observed as veins, lenses and disseminated ore geometries in the calc-silicate rock assemblages. Base metal mineralizations are mainly controlled lithologically and are generally associated with recrystallized limestones. In this study, the surface and the subsurface were modeled using the topographical data and the geochemical data (%Pb and %Zn) collected from 42 boreholes of Çulfa Çukuru which is located 20 km South-Southeast …


Teaching Differential Equations Without Computer Graphics Solutions Is A Crime, Beverly H. West Nov 2018

Teaching Differential Equations Without Computer Graphics Solutions Is A Crime, Beverly H. West

CODEE Journal

In the early 1980s computer graphics revolutionized the teaching of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Yet the movement to teach and learn the qualitative methods that interactive graphics affords seems to have lost momentum. There still exist college courses, even at big universities, being taught without the immense power that computer graphics has brought to differential equations. The vast majority of ODEs that arise in mathematical models are nonlinear, and linearization only approximates solutions sufficiently near an equilibrium. Introductory courses need to include nonlinear DEs. Graphs of phase plane trajectories and time series solutions allow one to see and analyze the …


The Upside Of Down Syndrome: Math Is My Superpower!, Heidi Berger Jul 2018

The Upside Of Down Syndrome: Math Is My Superpower!, Heidi Berger

Journal of Humanistic Mathematics

My son Isaac has Down syndrome. He was born in 2015, within a year of me receiving tenure at Simpson College. The experience of being his mother has had a profound effect on me as a mathematician. Having been with him through eleven surgeries over sixteen hospitalizations, I wanted to learn about his medical complexities and, more generally, about coordinated health care for those with chronic illness. To accomplish these goals, I’ve looked to my teaching and research. In the spring of 2016, I designed a sophomore-level mathematical modeling course on the respiratory system. In the summer of 2016, I …


Modeling Of Flood And Post-Flood Ocean Floor Cooling, William J. Worraker, Richard Ward Jul 2018

Modeling Of Flood And Post-Flood Ocean Floor Cooling, William J. Worraker, Richard Ward

Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism

Given that the earth’s ocean basins are geologically young, few areas being older than early Jurassic, and that most creation scientists regard Jurassic rocks as Flood deposits, these basins must have formed during and since the Flood, i.e. within no more than 4500 years. This paper represents a first attempt at modeling ocean basin formation by the separation of the continents and cooling of mantle material emplaced at spreading centres well within that limited time. We use a spreadsheet-based finite difference solution of the heat diffusion equation applied to a simple widely-used plate model of ocean lithosphere formation. Having verified …


Model Of Optimization Of Technological Regimes Of Oilextraction Production For The Minimum Costs, G. Kh. Abdullayeva Mar 2018

Model Of Optimization Of Technological Regimes Of Oilextraction Production For The Minimum Costs, G. Kh. Abdullayeva

Central Asian Problems of Modern Science and Education

In the stochastic manufacturing process conditions and classification of end products of oil extraction production by intersecting quality areas, manufacturing costs can be reduced by varying the values for the number of modes and their coordinates. 25 Built in the model optimization mode technology is designed to surround the purposes of (current) planning production of oil extraction enterprise products


Research On Power-Frequency Electromagnetic Interference Model Of Multicore Twisted Signal Cable Of High-Speed Railway, Bowen Zhang, Jiangjian Xie, Zhixin Wang, Jin Yang, Hao Yan Jan 2018

Research On Power-Frequency Electromagnetic Interference Model Of Multicore Twisted Signal Cable Of High-Speed Railway, Bowen Zhang, Jiangjian Xie, Zhixin Wang, Jin Yang, Hao Yan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

With the increase in the traction power of high-speed railways, the power-frequency electromagnetic interference of traction current to the signal cables becomes increasingly more severe. In this paper, the calculation model of the magnetic interference to signal cable was established on the MATLAB/Simulink platform based on the multiconductor transmission line theory. This model took SPTYWPL03-8B 8-core twist signal cable as an example and the power-frequency interference of external current to the signal cable was analyzed theoretically. In addition, experiments on electromagnetic interference of double-ended and single-ended signal cables were performed to validate the simulation model. Experiments showed that the relative …


Rlgc(F) Modeling Of A Busbar Distribution System Via Measured S-Parameters Atcenelec And Fcc Bands, Zeynep Hasirci, İsmai̇l Hakki Çavdar, Mehmet Öztürk Jan 2018

Rlgc(F) Modeling Of A Busbar Distribution System Via Measured S-Parameters Atcenelec And Fcc Bands, Zeynep Hasirci, İsmai̇l Hakki Çavdar, Mehmet Öztürk

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper addresses the extraction of accurate frequency-dependent per-unit-length RLGC parameters for busbar distribution systems using measured S-parameters for the CENELEC and FCC bands. A busbar is a distribution system element (three phase, low voltage) with a modular structure that carries electrical energy in buildings. The S-parameters of a busbar distribution system at different current levels (630 A, 1250 A, 2000 A) are measured with a vector network analyzer and then analyzed for three different two-port connections (L1-N, L2-N, L3-N). A frequency- dependent RLGC(f) model is used to characterize the busbar as a transmission line using a derivative-free optimization algorithm. …


A New Semianalytical Method For Analysis Of The Disc-Type Permanent Magnethysteresis Motor In Steady-State Operational Conditions, Ali Behniafar, Ahmad Darabi Jan 2018

A New Semianalytical Method For Analysis Of The Disc-Type Permanent Magnethysteresis Motor In Steady-State Operational Conditions, Ali Behniafar, Ahmad Darabi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Considering the characteristics of hysteresis and permanent magnet motors, it seems that these two motors are complements of each other. Thus, their combination yields a motor with an excellent performance. In order to preserve the major advantages of both motors in the new motor, a disc-type slotless structure is chosen. This paper presents a new finite-element method for the modeling of disc-type permanent magnet hysteresis synchronous (PMHS) motor. In this modeling method a new iterative algorithm is used. Programming software has been linked to finite- element software because of its limitation in the modeling of hysteresis phenomena. Validity of the …
