In this article, a new spectral method (BSQLM) for solving the partial differential equation is shown to unravel the heat transfer within the boundary layer. Some fluid layers at the free stream were given an impulsive motion in the horizontal direction. The thermal conductivity of the non-Newtonian fluid is assumed to be temperature dependent due to the influence of internal heat source; hence modified to suit the case of melting heat transfer following all the fundamental theories. The mathematical model was non-dimensionalised and parameterised using similarity transformation suitable to unravel the flow at short-time and long-time periods. Smooth transitions within the time frame 0 ≤ ξ ≤ 1 in the domain 0 ≤ η ≤ 1 are observed. The minimum temperature distribution is ascertained when the magnitude of Prandtl number is significantly large.","PeriodicalId":399731,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Comput. Sci.

The first step avoids integrating stiff ODEs during the unbounded search for initial estimates of model parameters. To avoid integration, a polynomial approximation of experimental data is generated, differentiated and compared directly to the ODE model, obtaining crude but physically plausible estimates for model parameters. Particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is used for the parameter search to overlook combinations of model parameters leading to undefined solutions of the stiff ODE. After initial estimates are determined, the second step numerically solves the ODE. This refines model parameter values through a bounded search. We demonstrate this method by fitting the model parameters (activation energies and pre-exponential factors) of the Arrhenius-based temperature-dependent kinetic coefficients in the shrinking core solid-state chemical kinetics model for the reduction of Cobalt (II, III) Oxide (Co(_3)O(_4)) particles to Cobalt (II) Oxide (CoO).","PeriodicalId":399731,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The SSO algorithm is based on the simulation of cooperative behaviour of social-spiders. In SSO algorithm, individuals emulate a group of spiders which interact to each other based on the biological laws of the cooperative colony. The algorithm considers two different search agents (spiders): males and females. Depending on gender, each individual is conducted by a set of different evolutionary operators which mimic different cooperative behaviour which are typically found in the colony. The experiment results show that the social-spider optimisation algorithm can be an efficient alternative for large-scale 0-1 knapsack problems.","PeriodicalId":399731,"journal":{"name":"Int. J.

Firstly, the original acoustic impulse response signals are analysed by statistical analysis and local mean decomposition (LMD), in order to construct the mixed domain features, which are made up of time, frequency and time-frequency domain features. Then the kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) is adopted to reduce the high-dimensional features of mixed domain and extract the main features which reflect the operation state of main components. Finally, the main features are input to extreme learning machine (ELM) for state recognition. After the feature extraction by KPCA, the redundancy of input features is eliminated. The simulation results show that KPCA is more sensitive to the nonlinear characteristics of the pipeline blockage signal when compared with PCA. Meanwhile, ELM is superior to BP in terms of classification accuracy and time consuming.","PeriodicalId":399731,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Comput. Sci.

Amputees with myoelectric hands wish to control the prostheses according to their own will and act like human hands as much as possible. Therefore, substantial research efforts have been put forth to advance the control of myoelectric hands. However, the tactile sensing and feedback of the myoelectric hands are still missing, thus limit hand grasp capabilities. In fact, integration of tactile sensing and feedback with hand prostheses plays an important role in improving the manipulation performance and enhancing perceptual embodiment for users. This paper reviews current state-of-the-art of tactile sensing technologies, including tactile sensor types and integration methods. Then, it introduces the basic theory of SEMG signals and presents an overview of the sensory feedback employed to prosthetic hand. The paper concludes with a detailed discussion of challenging issues and future developments.","PeriodicalId":399731,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Comput. Sci.

The approach of the proposed method is to approximate unknown function from the solution of the minimisation problem based on the overspecified data. This problem is ill-posed, in the sense that the solution (if it exist) does not depend continuously on the data. To regularise this ill-conditioned, we apply the Tikhonov regularisation 0th, 1st and 2nd method to obtain the stable numerical approximation to the solution. A stability analysis shows that this numerical scheme approximation is unconditionally stable. Numerical results for two inverse source identification problems show that the proposed numerical algorithm is simple, accurate, stable and computationally efficient.","PeriodicalId":399731,"journal":{"name":"Int.
