In this paper we present three new methods of order four using anaccelerating generator that generates root-finding methods of arbitrary order ofconvergence, based on existing third-order multiple root-finding methods free ...

We present a theoretical and experimental approach for the characterization of the damage induced anisotropy superimposed to the constitutive anisotropy of fiber-reinforced composite materials. The proposed theoretical ...

At the present time, Turkey and the Western Balkan countries' policies at the economic and political arena have been re-shaped by internal and external dynamics. Which does not change is the policy-making process. In each ...

The article deals with nonlinear analysis of the thin plates. Nonlinear numerical shell model, whose flexural state is based on the Germain-Kirchhoff theory, takes into account geometrical nonlinearity. Material model of ...

A novel nature-inspired algorithm called the Dynamic Virtual Bats Algorithm (DVBA) is presented in this thesis. DVBA is inspired by a bat’s ability to manipulate frequency and wavelength of the emitted sound waves when ...
