Abstract
This paper deals with the numerical implementation of the exponential Drucker-Parger plasticity model in the commercial finite element software, ABAQUS, via user subroutine UMAT for adhesive joint simulations. The influence of hydrostatic pressure on adhesive strength was investigated by a modified Arcan fixture designed particularly to induce a different state of hydrostatic pressure within an adhesive layer. The developed user subroutine UMAT, which utilizes an associated plastic flow during a plastic deformation, can provide a good agreement between the simulations and the experimental data. Better numerical stability at highly positive hydrostatic pressure loads for a very high order of exponential… More >

Abstract With the development of urbanization, the problem of neurological diseases brought about by population aging has gradually become a social problem of worldwide concern. Aging leads to gradual degeneration of the central nervous system, shrinkage of brain tissue, and decline in physical function in many elderlies, making them susceptible to neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), stroke, Parkinson’s and major depressive disorder (MDD). Due to the influence of these neurological diseases, the elderly have troubles such as memory loss, inability to move, falling, and getting lost, which seriously affect their quality of life.

Abstract Continuum topology optimization considering the vibration response is of great value in the engineering structure
design. The aim of this study is to address the topological design optimization of harmonic excitation structures with

topology optimization. The topological design model and sensitivity formulation are derived. The requirement of
minimum size control is transformed into a geometric constraint using the discrete variables. Consequently, thin

Abstract 3D vehicle detection based on LiDAR-camera fusion is becoming an emerging research topic in autonomous driving. The algorithm based on the Camera-LiDAR object candidate fusion method (CLOCs) is currently considered to be a more effective decision-level fusion algorithm, but it does not fully utilize the extracted features of 3D and 2D. Therefore, we proposed a 3D vehicle detection algorithm based on multimodal decision-level fusion. First, project the anchor point of the 3D detection bounding box into the 2D image, calculate the distance between 2D and 3D anchor points, and use this distance as a new fusion feature to enhance the… More >

Abstract The artificial immune system, an excellent prototype for developing Machine Learning, is inspired by the function of the powerful natural immune system. As one of the prevalent classifiers, the Dendritic Cell Algorithm (DCA) has been widely used to solve binary problems in the real world. The classification of DCA depends on a data pre-processing procedure to generate input signals, where feature selection and signal categorization are the main work. However, the results of these studies also show that the signal generation of DCA is relatively weak, and all of them utilized a filter strategy to remove unimportant attributes.

Abstract Survival data with a multi-state structure are frequently observed in follow-up studies. An analytic approach based
on a multi-state model (MSM) should be used in longitudinal health studies in which a patient experiences a

attempts are made to identify the risk factors associated with the transition hazard rates or probabilities of disease
progression. The usual variable selection methods, including stepwise and penalized methods, do not provide

Abstract This paper suggests a new modified version of the traditional Weibull distribution by adding a new shape parameter utilising the modified alpha power transformed technique. We refer to the new model as modified alpha power transformed Weibull distribution. The attractiveness and significance of the new distribution lie in its power to model monotone and non-monotone failure rate functions, which are quite familiar in environmental investigations. Its hazard rate function can be decreasing, increasing, bathtub and upside-down then bathtub shaped. Diverse structural properties of the proposed model are acquired including quantile function, moments, entropies, order statistics, residual life and reversed failure… More >

Abstract Nonparametric (distribution-free) control charts have been introduced in recent years when quality characteristics do not follow a specific distribution. When the sample selection is prohibitively expensive, we prefer ranked-set sampling over simple random sampling because ranked set sampling-based control charts outperform simple random sampling-based control charts.

Pythagorean fuzzy hypersoft set (PFHSS) is the most influential and capable leeway of the hypersoft set (HSS) and Pythagorean fuzzy soft set (PFSS). It is also a general form of the intuitionistic fuzzy hypersoft set (IFHSS), which provides a better and more perfect assessment of the decision-making (DM) process. The fundamental objective of this work is to enrich the precision of decision-making. A novel mixed aggregation operator called Pythagorean fuzzy hypersoft Einstein weighted geometric (PFHSEWG) based on Einstein’s… More >

Abstract According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cancer is the leading cause of death for children in low and middle-income countries. Around 400,000 kids get diagnosed with this illness each year, and their survival rate depends on the country in which they live. In this article, we present a Pythagorean fuzzy model that may help doctors identify the most likely type of cancer in children at an early stage by taking into account the symptoms of different types of cancer. The Pythagorean fuzzy decision-making techniques that we utilize are Pythagorean Fuzzy TOPSIS, Pythagorean Fuzzy Entropy (PF-Entropy), and Pythagorean Fuzzy Power… More >

Abstract In this paper, we present the existence and uniqueness of fixed points and common fixed points for Reich and Chatterjea pairs of self-maps in complete metric spaces. Furthermore, we study fixed point theorems for Reich and Chatterjea nonexpansive mappings in a Banach space using the Krasnoselskii-Ishikawa iteration method associated with and consider some applications of our results to prove the existence of solutions for nonlinear integral and nonlinear fractional differential equations. We also establish certain interesting examples to illustrate the usability of our results. More >

Abstract Generally, the field of fixed point theory has attracted the attention of researchers in different fields of science and engineering due to its use in proving the existence and uniqueness of solutions of real-world dynamic models. C*-algebra is being continually used to explain a physical system in quantum field theory and statistical mechanics and has subsequently become an important area of research. The concept of a C*-algebra-valued metric space was introduced in 2014 to generalize the concept of metric space. In fact, It is a generalization by replacing the set of real numbers with a C*-algebra. After that,

Abstract Recent research on nanostructures has demonstrated their importance and application in a variety of fields. Nanostructures are used directly or indirectly in drug delivery systems, medicine and pharmaceuticals, biological sensors, photodetectors, transistors, optical and electronic devices, and so on. The discovery of carbon nanotubes with Y-shaped junctions is motivated by the development of future advanced electronic devices. Because of their interaction with Y-junctions, electronic switches, amplifiers, and three-terminal transistors are of particular interest. Entropy is a concept that determines the uncertainty of a system or network. Entropy concepts are also used in biology, chemistry, and applied mathematics. Based on the… More >

Abstract The doubly resolving sets are a natural tool to identify where diffusion occurs in a complicated network. Many real-world phenomena, such as rumour spreading on social networks, the spread of infectious diseases, and the spread of the virus on the internet, may be modelled using information diffusion in networks. It is obviously impractical to monitor every node due to cost and overhead limits because there are too many nodes in the network, some of which may be unable or unwilling to send information about their state. As a result, the source localization problem is to find the number of nodes… More >

Abstract The problem of investigating the minimum set of landmarks consisting of auto-machines (Robots) in a
connected network is studied with the concept of location number or metric dimension of this network. In this
paper, we study the latest type of metric dimension called as local fractional metric dimension (LFMD) and find
its upper bounds for generalized Petersen networks GP(n, 3), where n ≥ 7. For n ≥ 9. The limiting values of
LFMD for GP(n, 3) are also obtained as 1 (bounded) if n approaches to infinity. More >

Abstract In early December 2019, a new virus named “2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)” appeared in Wuhan, China. The disease quickly spread worldwide, resulting in the COVID-19 pandemic. In the current work, we will propose a novel fuzzy soft modal (i.e., fuzzy-soft expert system) for early detection of COVID-19. The main construction of the fuzzy-soft expert system consists of five portions. The exploratory study includes sixty patients (i.e., forty males and twenty females) with symptoms similar to COVID-19 in (Nanjing Chest Hospital, Department of Respiratory, China). The proposed fuzzy-soft expert system depended on five symptoms of COVID-19 (i.e., shortness of breath, sore… More >

Abstract In this paper, we define the curve at a constant distance from the edge of regression on a curve r(s) with arc length parameter s in Galilean 3-space. Here, d is a non-isotropic or isotropic vector defined as a vector tightly fastened to Frenet trihedron of the curve r(s) in 3-dimensional Galilean space. We build the Frenet frame of the constructed curve with respect to two types of the vector d and we indicate the properties related to the curvatures of the curve . Also, for the curve , we give the conditions to be a circular helix. Furthermore, we… More >

Abstract Laplace transform is one of the powerful tools for solving differential equations in engineering and other science subjects. Using the Laplace transform for solving differential equations, however, sometimes leads to solutions in the Laplace domain that are not readily invertible to the real domain by analytical means. Thus, we need numerical inversion methods to convert the obtained solution from Laplace domain to a real domain. In this paper, we propose a numerical scheme based on Laplace transform and numerical inverse Laplace transform for the approximate solution of fractal-fractional differential equations with order . Our proposed numerical scheme is based on… More >

Abstract This study focuses on the dynamics of drug concentration in the blood. In general, the concentration level of a drug
in the blood is evaluated by the mean of an ordinary and first-order differential equation. More precisely, it is solved
through an initial value problem. We proposed a new modeling technique for studying drug concentration in blood
dynamics. This technique is based on two fractional derivatives, namely, Caputo and Caputo-Fabrizio derivatives.
We first provided comprehensive and detailed proof of the existence of at least one solution to the problem; we
later proved the uniqueness of the existing solution. The proof… More >
