This paper presents the natural convection around a tilted hot cylinder immersed in Casson fluid and enclosed by a square container. The parameters of Casson fluid are set to be (0.1≤η ≤ 1.0), aspect ratio (0.1≤AR ≤ 0.7), tilt angle (0^°≤γ ≤ 90^° ) and Rayleigh number (10^3≤Ra ≤ 10^6) are inspected to reveal their influences on Casson fluid flow and heat transfer. The governing equations were solved with COMSOL Multiphysics 5.6 software. The walls of the enclosure and the cylinder are fixed as T_c and T_h. Findings are delineated as stream functions, isothermal contours, and average Nusselt numbers. The study reveals that for the range of η, AR and Ra investigated, the rate of heat transfer of the enclosure wall increases with increasing η, AR and Ra; while for the heated rectangular obstacle, the rate of heat transfer decreases with AR growth but improves with increasing η and Ra. At Ra=106, γ increment results in heat transfer enhancement for the enclosure and cylinder walls. For Ra in the interval of 10^3≤Ra ≤ 10^5, the response of the thermal profiles of both the rectangular cylinder and enclosure walls to cylinder orientation depends on the value of Ra and γ considered.

Gasoline is one of the essential commodities in today's societies and its price can affect different aspects of citizens' lives. This article studies the impacts of the sudden increase in gasoline price on the volume of intercity traffic at national and provincial scales, along with the changes in driving speed distribution and the percentage of speeding violations. The studied period includes four months in two consecutive years. Data was collected from more than 2400 loop detectors placed on the roads of 31 provinces of Iran. This data is used for implementing Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD) on traffic volume and speeding violation percentage. Statistical measures of speed distribution are also used to examine changes in driving speed. According to the literature, the optimal driving speed for fuel consumption is about 50 to 70 km/h. This study showed a 7.4% increase in the probability of driving in the 50 to 70 km/h range after the price increase. Also, according to research results, the volume of intercity traffic and the percentage of speeding violations has decreased due to the rise in gasoline price.

In this modest work, we present a numerical study of the phenomenon of laminar natural convection in a vertical plate, whose wall was maintained at a constant temperature.It was assumed that the boundary layer problem was initially given in a two-dimensional flow even though the physical properties of the fluid were considered to be constant except for the density change with the temperature.The governing equations of the model have been transformed and simplified into a non-linear system of ordinary differential equations (ODE) through the use of similarity variables which we were able to solve numerically using the Runge-Kutta method. This method has better opted for the numerical resolution of this system which was developed in FORTRAN code on the computer. The numerical results of the model were presented in tabular form and the velocity and temperature profiles for various Prandtl numbers were analyzed and depicted graphically. Also, the expressions of the mean heat transfer rate and the average Nusselt number for the whole plate were obtained in the analysis. The results were compared at the end with the numerical results obtained in the literature, showing that they were in good agreement.

Cost overrun and time delays in water industry construction projects persuade the authorities to improve the project management approach by adopting building information modeling (BIM). However, BIM is new in the water industry and, with the many aspects and extensive details involved, its successful implementation requires an effective strategic plan. To address this need, in this project a customized BIM strategic plan development method is proposed and followed for the water industry projects in Iran. As a result, two 5-year implementation phases are proposed and specifications of the required infrastructures are outlined. The first phase targets the implementation of BIM maturity level one in pilot projects and BIM maturity level two becomes mandatory at the end of phase two. To the best of the authors' knowledge, for the first time, a systematic method for the BIM strategic plan development in an industry, with multiple organizations involved, is proposed in this research. The two types of BIM committees introduced and utilized in this research can inspire other BIM strategic plan development efforts for large industries, e.g. transportation industry, the electric power industry, and the oil and gas industry, with multiple organizations in charge and different types of construction projects implemented.

Technological development has led to a diversification of loads in transmission and distribution systems. The rise of non-linear loads in the system is one of the biggest effects of this variation as semiconductor technology develops. Nonlinear loads are characterized by current and voltage characteristics that are not purely sinusoidal, also known as harmonics. Harmonics cause the system insulation to degrade and increase energy loss. Therefore, it's crucial to get rid of harmonics before they occur. This study intends to lower the risk of distribution system damage by employing complex harmonic forecasting methods. An RNN-based forecasting algorithm has been created by using actual system power quality data obtained from the Organized Industrial Zone in Bandırma, Turkey. Parameters that are most likely to be neglected in simulation studies are also taken into account in the calculation by using actual data. Active power data, current harmonic data and calendar data were used together to design harmonic forecasting model. Graphs and calculations were used to discuss the results. The obtained minimum values of the RMSE, MAE, and MAPE are 2,116, 0,666 and 11,619, respectively. The convergence as a result of these calculations has allowed high forecasting performance of power quality distortions.

An optimization algorithm based on training and learning is formed based on the process of training and learning in a class. A deep neural network is one of the types of feedforward neural networks whose connection pattern among its neurons is inspired by the visual cortex of animals' brain. The present study considers decreasing prediction error for the types of time series and the uncertainty in estimation parameters, improving the structure of the deep neural network and increasing response speed in the proposed neural network method; besides, the competitive performance and the collaboration among the neurons of deep neural network are also increased. Selected data is related to Qeshm weather (suitable weather conditions to study our purpose) prediction during 2016 onwards. In this study, for the purpose of analyzing the prediction issue of power consumption of domestic expenses in the indefinite and severe fluctuation mode, we decided to combine two methods of Long Short-Term Memory and Convolutional Neural Network. For the training of the deep network, the BP algorithm is used.

This paper introduces a newly designed four-dimensional memristive chaotic system. The novel oscillator is chaotic regarding the findings that the system’s dynamic has one positive Lyapunov exponent. Also, due to the results of the equilibrium points analysis, it is shown that the oscillator has a line of equilibria, so the attractors of this system are hidden. Moreover, the study of energy dissipation of this system, power spectrum, and Poincaré sections are conducted to investigate the system's dynamics. The complex features of this system are investigated with the aid of bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents spectra, approximate entropy, and basin of attraction.

This paper proposes a hybrid method for order reduction of the bilinear system model using Balanced Truncation (BT) and Bilinear Iterative Rational Krylov Algorithm (BIRKA). Bilinear BT (BBT) has low accuracy but guarantees stability, while BIRKA convergence suffers from sensitivity to initial choice of reduced-order system. The proposed method first determines the order of the reduced bilinear model by minimizing the index of Integral Square Error (ISE). Then, the initial guess of reduced-order system is provided via two approaches, BBT and Linear BT (LBT), to guarantee the convergence of BIRKA. The result of BBT is a good stable initial guess for BIRKA, but it is very computationally expensive to solve the generalized Lyapunov equations to find the solution. LBT decreases the computational complexity by providing the initial guess via solving the Lyapunov equations. To further decrease the complexity, the condition number is substituted in place of the eigenvalues in BIRKA. Three bilinear test systems are considered to show the efficiency of proposed method. Finally, the performance of the proposed method is compared with some classical methods. The results show that the convergence probability of BIRKA increases. Also, the time for the determining the model order reduction decreases.

Computational creativity modeling, including concept combination, enables us to foster deeper abilities of AI agents. Although concept combination has been addressed in a lot of computational creativity studies, findings show incompatibility amongst empirical data of concept combination and the results of the used methods. In addition, even though recent neuroscientific studies show the crucial impact of retrieving concepts’ relations explicitly stored in episodic memory, it has been underestimated in modeling creative processes. In this paper, a quantum cognition-based approach is used to more effectively consider the context and resolve logical inconsistencies. Also, episodic memory is leveraged as the basis for the concept combination modeling process based on the created context. The result of the proposed process is a set of meaningful concepts and expressions as a combination of stimuli and related episodes which are used to depict a visual collage as an image. The significant improvement in the quality of results in comparison with the existing methods suggests that quantum-like modeling can be considered as the foundation for developing AI agents capable of creating artistic images or assisting a person during a creative process.

The separation of a fluid from an immiscible liquid can be used in many natural ways. Traditional methods are currently used to accomplish this process. In this study, we attempted to investigate the effect of changes in the geometric radius of the water droplet in the oil medium and applied voltage to provide outputs which can be used to better design water separating electro-filter for crude oil. Furthermore, the most important innovation of this article is to study considering the effects of the presence and absence of Earth's gravity. The results of this work show that changes in geometry and voltage were effective in the deformation and movement of the drops, but their effects were not significant compared to the presence and absence of gravity. In other words, the effect of considering Earth's gravity in this study tends to make the results realistic, and the results would not be comparable to those obtained in the absence of Earth's gravity.
