Summary

When modeling real-world problems, we often have to deal with measurements of different, related and mutually dependent processes. Partial differential equations are frequently used to model several physical phenomenons, arising in applied sciences and engineering. The solutions of these PDEs are of primary importance for the determination of physical behaviour of these physical phenomenons. The exact/analytical solutions of these PDEs are ideal, but due to mathematical complications, the exact/analytical solutions are possible only for simple problems with simple boundary conditions. The exact solutions of nonlinear PDEs arised in science and engineering are not always possible or time-consuming and thus the use of approximate/numerical approaches continuously remains an important alternative for the numerical treatment of these type equations. The numerical solutions of PDEs have been of much importance for many years. in the last few years, tremendous progress has been made to this area, due to the development of computer technology. Although significant progress has been made, still the numerical methods are in the early stage of their development.

 

This Special Issue deals with the recent advances in computer based techniques for partial differential equations of integer order as well as fractional-order, especially in science and engineering, and will accept high-quality papers having original research results.


The purpose of this Special Issue is to unite mathematicians with physicists, engineers and other researchers, for whom differential equations are valuable research tools.

    Abstract In this paper, we developed a mathematical model for Streptococcus suis, which is an epidemic by considering the moisture that affects the infection. The disease is caused by Streptococcus suis infection found in pigs which can be transmitted to humans. The patients of Streptococcus suis were generally found in adults males and the elderly who contacted pigs or who ate uncooked pork. In human cases, the infection can cause a severe illness and death. This disease has an impact to the financial losses in the swine industry. In the development of models for this disease, we have divided the… More >

    Abstract In this paper, three-dimensional flows in laminar subsonic cascades at relatively low Reynolds numbers (Re < 2500) are presented, based on numerical calculations. The stator and rotor blade designs are those for a MEMS-based Rankine microturbine power-plant-on-a-chip with 109-micron chord blades. Blade passage calculations in 3D were done for different Reynolds numbers, tip clearances (from 0 to 20%) and incidences (0° to 15°) to determine the impact of aerodynamic conditions on the flow patterns. These conditions are applied to a blade passage for a stationary outer casing. The 3D blade passage without tip clearance indicates More >

    Abstract We present a novel quantum algorithm to evaluate the hamming distance between two unknown oracles via measuring the degree of entanglement between two ancillary qubits. In particular, we use the power of the entanglement degree based quantum computing model that preserves at most the locality of interactions within the quantum model structure. This model uses one of two techniques to retrieve the solution of a quantum computing problem at hand. In the first technique, the solution of the problem is obtained based on whether there is an entanglement between the two ancillary qubits or not.… More >

    Abstract

    Energy conservation is a crucial issue to extend the lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) where the battery capacity and energy sources are very restricted. Intelligent energy-saving techniques can help designers overcome this issue by reducing the number of selected sensors that report environmental measurements by eliminating all replicated and unrelated features. This paper suggests a Hybrid Sensor Selection (HSS) technique that combines filter-wrapper method to acquire a rich-informational subset of sensors in a reasonable time. HSS aims to increase the lifetime of WSNs by using the optimal number of sensors. At the same time, HSS

    Abstract COVID-19 is a growing problem worldwide with a high mortality rate. As a result, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a pandemic. In order to limit the spread of the disease, a fast and accurate diagnosis is required. A reverse transcript polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test is often used to detect the disease. However, since this test is time-consuming, a chest computed tomography (CT) or plain chest X-ray (CXR) is sometimes indicated. The value of automated diagnosis is that it saves time and money by minimizing human effort. Three significant contributions are made by… More >

    Abstract This article is intended to examine the fluid flow patterns and heat transfer in a rectangular channel embedded with three semi-circular cylinders comprised of steel at the boundaries. Such an organization is used to generate the heat exchangers with tube and shell because of the production of more turbulence due to zigzag path which is in favor of rapid heat transformation. Because of little maintenance, the heat exchanger of such type is extensively used.

    Abstract Communication is a basic need of every human being; by this, they can learn, express their feelings and exchange their ideas, but deaf people cannot listen and speak. For communication, they use various hands gestures, also known as Sign Language (SL), which they learn from special schools. As normal people have not taken SL classes; therefore, they are unable to perform signs of daily routine sentences (e.g., what are the specifications of this mobile phone?). A technological solution can facilitate in overcoming this communication gap by which normal people can communicate with deaf people. This… More >

    Abstract Nonlinear modelling has a significant role in different disciplines of sciences such as behavioral, social, physical and biological sciences. The structural properties are also needed for such types of disciplines, as dynamical consistency, positivity and boundedness are the major requirements of the models in these fields. One more thing, this type of nonlinear model has no explicit solutions. For the sake of comparison its computation will be done by using different computational techniques. Regrettably, the aforementioned structural properties have not been restored in the existing computational techniques in literature. Therefore, the construction of structural preserving… More >
