Convergence Of The Sinc Method Applied To Volterra Integral Equations, M. Zarebnia, J. Rashidinia Jun 2010

Convergence Of The Sinc Method Applied To Volterra Integral Equations, M. Zarebnia, J. Rashidinia

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A collocation procedure is developed for the linear and nonlinear Volterra integral equations, using the globally defined Sinc and auxiliary basis functions. We analytically show the exponential convergence of the Sinc collocation method for approximate solution of Volterra integral equations. Numerical examples are included to confirm applicability and justify rapid convergence of our method.


Uniform Stabilization Of N-Dimensional Vibrating Equation Modeling ‘Standard Linear Model’ Of Viscoelasticity, Ganesh C. Gorain Dec 2009

Uniform Stabilization Of N-Dimensional Vibrating Equation Modeling ‘Standard Linear Model’ Of Viscoelasticity, Ganesh C. Gorain

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we deal with the elastic vibrations of flexible structures modeled by the ‘standard linear model’ of viscoelasticity in n-dimensional space. We study the uniform exponential stabilization of such kind of vibrations after incorporating separately very small amount of passive viscous damping and internal material damping of Kelvin-Viogt type in the model. Explicit forms of exponential energy decay rates are obtained by a direct method, for the solution of such boundary value problems without having to introduce any boundary feedback.


Circular Nonlinear Subdivision Schemes For Curve Design, Jian-Ao Lian, Yonghui Wang, Yonggao Yang Jun 2009

Circular Nonlinear Subdivision Schemes For Curve Design, Jian-Ao Lian, Yonghui Wang, Yonggao Yang

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Two new families of nonlinear 3-point subdivision schemes for curve design are introduced. The first family is ternary interpolatory and the second family is binary approximation. All these new schemes are circular-invariant, meaning that new vertices are generated from local circles formed by three consecutive old vertices. As consequences of the nonlinear schemes, two new families of linear subdivision schemes for curve design are established. The 3-point linear binary schemes, which are corner-cutting depending on the choices of the tension parameter, are natural extensions of the Lane-Riesenfeld schemes. The four families of both nonlinear and linear subdivision schemes are implemented …


On Generalized Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta Distributions, Mridula Garg, Kumkum Jain, S. L. Kalla Jun 2009

On Generalized Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta Distributions, Mridula Garg, Kumkum Jain, S. L. Kalla

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we introduce a function which is an extension to the general Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta function. Having defined the incomplete generalized beta type-2 and incomplete generalized gamma functions, some differentiation formulae are established for these incomplete functions. We have introduced two new statistical distributions, termed as generalized Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta beta type-2 distribution and generalized Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta gamma distribution and then derived the expressions for the moments, distribution function, the survivor function, the hazard rate function and the mean residue life function for these distributions. Graphs for both these distributions are given, which reflect the role of shape and scale …


Analytical Solution Of Time-Fractional Advection Dispersion Equation, Tariq O. Salim, Ahmad El-Kahlout Jun 2009

Analytical Solution Of Time-Fractional Advection Dispersion Equation, Tariq O. Salim, Ahmad El-Kahlout

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we get exact solution of the time-fractional advection-dispersion equation with reaction term, where the Caputo fractional derivative is considered of order α ϵ (0,2]. The solution is achieved by using a function transform, Fourier and Laplace transforms to get the formulas of the fundamental solution, which are expressed explicitly in terms of Fox’s H-function by making use of the relationship between Fourier and Mellin transforms. As special cases the exact solutions of time-fractional diffusion and wave equations are also obtained, and the solutions of the integer order equations are mentioned.

Mehler-Fock Transformation Of Ultradistribution, Deshna Loonker, P. K. Banerji

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper deals with the testing function space Z and its dual Z', which is known as ultradistrbution. Some theorems and properties are investigated for the Mehler-Fock transformation and its inverse for the ultradistribution.


On A-Ary Subdivision For Curve Design Ii. 3-Point And 5-Point Interpolatory Schemes, Jian-Ao Lian Dec 2008

On A-Ary Subdivision For Curve Design Ii. 3-Point And 5-Point Interpolatory Schemes, Jian-Ao Lian

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The a-ary 3-point and 5-point interpolatery subdivision schemes for curve design are introduced for arbitrary odd integer a greater than or equal to 3. These new schemes further extend the family of the classical 4- and 6-point interpolatory schemes.


On A-Ary Subdivision For Curve Design: I. 4-Point And 6-Point Interpolatory Schemes, Jian-Ao Lian Jun 2008

On A-Ary Subdivision For Curve Design: I. 4-Point And 6-Point Interpolatory Schemes, Jian-Ao Lian

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The classical binary 4-point and 6-point interpolatery subdivision schemes are generalized to a-ary setting for any integer a greater than or equal to 3. These new a-ary subdivision schemes for curve design are derived easily from their corresponding two-scale scaling functions, a notion from the context of wavelets.


Rethinking Pythagorean Triples, William J. Spezeski Jun 2008

Rethinking Pythagorean Triples, William J. Spezeski

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

It has been known for some 2000 years how to generate Pythagorean Triples. While the classical formulas generate all of the primitive triples, they do not generate all of the triples. For example, the triple (9, 12, 15) can’t be generated from the formulas, but it can be produced by introducing a multiplier to the primitive triple (3, 4, 5). And while the classical formulas produce the triple (3, 4, 5), they don’t produce the triple (4, 3, 5); a transposition is needed. This paper explores a new set of formulas that, in fact, do produce all of the triples …


Certain Expansion Formulae Involving A Basic Analogue Of Fox’S H-Function, S. D. Purohit, R. K. Yadav, S. L. Kalla Jun 2008

Certain Expansion Formulae Involving A Basic Analogue Of Fox’S H-Function, S. D. Purohit, R. K. Yadav, S. L. Kalla

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Certain expansion formulae for a basic analogue of the Fox’s H-function have been derived by the applications of the q-Leibniz rule for the Weyl type q-derivatives of a product of two functions. Expansion formulae involving a basic analogue of Meijer’s G-function and MacRobert’s E-function have been derived as special cases of the main results.


Signed Decomposition Of Fully Fuzzy Linear Systems, Tofigh Allahviranloo, Nasser Mikaeilvand, Narsis A. Kiani, Rasol M. Shabestari Jun 2008

Signed Decomposition Of Fully Fuzzy Linear Systems, Tofigh Allahviranloo, Nasser Mikaeilvand, Narsis A. Kiani, Rasol M. Shabestari

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

System of linear equations is applied for solving many problems in various areas of applied sciences. Fuzzy methods constitute an important mathematical and computational tool for modeling real-world systems with uncertainties of parameters. In this paper, we discuss about fully fuzzy linear systems in the form AX = b (FFLS). A novel method for finding the non-zero fuzzy solutions of these systems is proposed. We suppose that all elements of coefficient matrix A are positive and we employ parametric form linear system. Finally, Numerical examples are presented to illustrate this approach and its results are compared with other methods.


A New Family Of Pr Two Channel Filter Banks, Jian-Ao Lian Dec 2007

A New Family Of Pr Two Channel Filter Banks, Jian-Ao Lian

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A new family of multidimensional dimensional (MD) perfect reconstruction (PR) two channel filter banks with finite impulse response (FIR) filters induced from systems of biorthogonal MD scaling functions and wavelets are introduced. One of the advantages of this construction is that the biorthogonal scaling functions and wavelets are easy to establish due to the interpolatory property of the scaling functions to start with. The other advantage is that all filters can be centrosymmetric or bi-linear phase. Examples of two dimensional (2D) bi-linear phase PR twochannel FIR filter banks will be demonstrated.


Bidimensional Pr Qmf With Fir Filters, Jian-Ao Lian Dec 2007

Bidimensional Pr Qmf With Fir Filters, Jian-Ao Lian

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Multidimensional perfect reconstruction (PR) quadrature mirror filter (QMF) banks with finite impulse response (FIR) filters induced from systems of biorthogonal multivariate scaling functions and wavelets are investigated. In particular, bivariate scaling functions and wavelets with dilation as an expansive integer matrix whose determinant is two in absolute value are considered. Demonstrative quincunxial examples are explicitly given and new FIR filters are constructed.


A Complexification Of Rolle’S Theorem, J. P. Pemba, A. R. Davies, N. K. Muoneke Jun 2007

A Complexification Of Rolle’S Theorem, J. P. Pemba, A. R. Davies, N. K. Muoneke

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A new version of the classical Rolle’s theorem is proved for any complex-valued differentiable function of the complex variable on an open connected convex subset of the complex field. The associated Mean-Value theorem follows naturally. A few explicit illustrative examples are provided in the closing section of the paper.
