The complex dielectric constants of building materials are present in the reflection, transmission and diffraction coefficients of the ray tracing formulation. Any deviation of the dielectric constants included in ray ...

A new formulation for the sensitivity analysis of three-dimensional finite elements is presented. The method is based upon the implicit differentiation and calculates all parts of deformed element stiffness matrix. These parts are found by a rather...

A two-dimensional sensitivity analysis using the finite element method is discussed. The factoring technique and Wang\\'s method are applied to the same problem. Both plane stress and plane strain problems are solved in this paper. Although the same...

). The developed GA–ANN, which included 11 hidden neurons, could predict honey viscosity with correlation coefficient of 0.997. The overall agreement between ANFIS predictions and experimental data was also very good (r=0.999). Sensitivity analysis results showed...

The Bowen ration energy balance (BREB) is considered as a standard method for

estimating lake evaporation. The BREB method however requires numerous input data which

may not be readily available especially ...

The aims of this study were to evaluate the energy consumption and its modeling in industrial milk production units using data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach and sensitivity analysis. Data were collected from 44 industrial milk production units...

For Considering low vehicle speed in urban areas, there have been 465 fatal crashes collectively in the urban municipality of Mashhad city all of which involved bicycles or motorcycles, from spring 2010 until spring 2013. ...

. Sensitive analysis is also used for observation of varieties in the value of water. Results showed that, irrigation water is the most effective and significant variable in the controversial area. Results of the sensitive analysis indicated that...
