Modeling And Analysis Of The Spread Of An Infectious Disease Cholera With Environmental Fluctuations, Manju Agarwal, Vinay Verma
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
A nonlinear delayed mathematical model with immigration for the spread of an infectious disease cholera with carriers in the environment is proposed and analyzed. It is assumed that all susceptible are affected by carrier population density. The carrier population density is assumed to follow the logistic model and grows due to conducive human population density related factors. The model is analyzed by stability theory of differential equations and computer simulation. Both the disease-free (DFE), (CFE) and endemic equilibria are found and their stability investigated. Bifurcation analyses about endemic equilibrium are also carried out analytically using the theory of differential equations. …

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this article an efficient modification of the variational iteration method (VIM) is presented using Chebyshev polynomials. Special attention is given to study the convergence of the proposed method. The new modification is tested for some examples to demonstrate reliability and efficiency of the proposed method. A comparison of our numerical results those of the conventional numerical method, the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method (RK4) are given. The comparison shows that the solution using our modification is fast-convergent and is in excellent conformance with the exact solution. Finally, we conclude that the proposed method can be applied to a large class of …

In this paper the t-distal notion is extended for fuzzy dynamical systems on fuzzy metric spaces. A method for constructing fuzzy metric spaces is studied. The product of t-distal fuzzy dynamical systems is considered. It is proved that: a product of fuzzy dynamical systems is t- distal if and only if its components are t-distal. The persistence of the t-distal property up to a fuzzy factor map is proved.

Fractional Integrals And Derivatives For Sumudu Transform On Distribution Spaces, Deshna Loonker, P. K. Banerji
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
We propose, in the present paper, the investigation of the Sumudu transformation for certain distribution spaces with regard to the fractional integral and differential operators of the transform. This paper is organized in two sections, first of which gives an abriged text on fractional operators and the Sumudu transform (which is less discussed and reserached). Basic concept in analysing the investigation is initiated by the fact that the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral can be expressed as one of the appropriate forms of the Abel integral equation, which is the second section of this paper.

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this paper, a new combined extended Conjugate-Gradient (CG) and Variable-Metric (VM) methods is proposed for solving unconstrained large-scale numerical optimization problems. The basic idea is to choose a combination of the current gradient and some pervious search directions as a new search direction updated by Al-Bayati's SCVM-method to fit a new step-size parameter using Armijo Inexact Line Searches (ILS). This method is based on the ILS and its numerical properties are discussed using different non-linear test functions with various dimensions. The global convergence property of the new algorithm is investigated under few weak conditions. Numerical experiments show that the …

The information technology project control literature has documented that clan control is often essential in complex multistakeholder projects for project success. However, instituting clan control in such conditions is challenging as people come to a project with diverse skills and backgrounds. There is often insufficient time for clan control to develop naturally. This paper investigates the question , "How can clan control be enacted in complex IT projects? " Recognizing social capital as a resource , we conceptualize a clan as a group with strong social capital (i.e., where its members have developed their structural, cognitive, and relational ties to …

Higher Homotopy Operations And André-Quillen Cohomology, David Blanc, Mark W. Johnson, James M. Turner
University Faculty Publications and Creative Works
There are two main approaches to the problem of realizing a Π-algebra (a graded group Λ equipped with an action of the primary homotopy operations) as the homotopy groups of a space X. Both involve trying to realize an algebraic free simplicial resolution G . of Λ by a simplicial space W ., and proceed by induction on the simplicial dimension. The first provides a sequence of André-Quillen cohomology classes in H n+2(Λ;Ω nΛ) (n≥1) as obstructions to the existence of successive Postnikov sections for W . (cf. Dwyer et al. (1995) [27]). The second gives a sequence of geometrically …

In this paper, we show the applicability of the first integral method for obtaining exact solutions of some nonlinear partial differential equations. By using this method, we found some exact solutions of the Landau-Ginburg-Higgs equation and generalized form of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and approximate long water wave equations. The first integral method is a direct algebraic method for obtaining exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. This method can be applied to nonintegrable equations as well as to integrable ones. This method is based on the theory of commutative algebra.

The generalized differential transform method (GDTM) is a powerful tool for solving fractional equations. In this paper we solve the Mathieu fractional equation by this method. The approximate solutions obtained are compared with the exact solution. We also show that if both differential orders decrease, we can still have an approximate solution in the different interval of p.

Conference Papers
This paper investigates a method of classifying domestic electricity load profiles through Self Organising Maps (SOMs). Approximately four thousand customers are divided into groups based on their electricity demand patterns. Dwelling and occupant characteristics are then investigated for each group. The results show that SOMs are an effective way of classifying customers into groups in terms of their electrical load profile and that certain dwelling and occupant characteristics are significant factors in determining which group they end up in.

We consider a general swarm model of self-propelling agents interacting through a pairwise potential in the presence of noise and communication time delay. Previous work has shown that a communication time delay in the swarm induces a pattern bifurcation that depends on the size of the coupling amplitude. We extend these results by completely unfolding the bifurcation structure of the mean field approximation. Our analysis reveals a direct correspondence between the different dynamical behaviors found in different regions of the coupling-time delay plane with the different classes of simulated coherent swarm patterns. We derive the spatiotemporal scales of the swarm …
