Shape memory alloy is one of the materials classified as 'smart' materials. Its anomalous behaviour has gained more attention in the field of engineering. There are numerous mathematical models that have been developed to analyze its behaviour. In this paper, a newly developed constitutive model for shape memory alloy is presented. The features of the newly developed model are presented and compared with some of the existing models.

In this paper first a system of ordinary differential equations is formulated for an extended SIR influenza model. In our model, the emergence of drug resistance and the evolution of resistant strains are assumed. As a result, the coexistence of sensitive and resistant strains leads to the occurrence of consecutive epidemic waves during the disease infection. We employ two main control strategies: prophylaxis and antiviral treatment to study their influences in eradicating or mitigating the outbreak. Then we develop a deterministic model to a SDE form for taking into consideration the stochasticity of drug resistance spread. The basic reproduction numbers and the control reproduction numbers are calculated for the sensitive and resistant strains. Also we discuss the numerical results obtained for the final size of the epidemic from both, the deterministic and stochastic models.

Soil pollutant concentrations such as heavy metal Cr, Cu, Ni, and Zn were collected at 1082 sampling sites in Changhua county of Taiwan. This study applies a spatial autocorrelation analysis for identifying multiple soil pollution hotspots based on original and re-sampling data in the study area. Results show that the multiple hotspots for four heavy metals and are strongly related to the locations of industrial plants and irrigation systems in the study area. Soil pollution hotspots are clearly defined based on the LISA (local indicators of spatial association) cluster maps. The cluster maps show a clear spatial autocorrelation of soil pollutants in cLHS samples, especially for Cr. Furthermore, the maps explore the spatial patterns of hazards and capture the hotspot areas without exhaustive sampling in the study area.

This paper proposes a new method of creating 3D visual data cubes for high volume/dimension OLAP data analysis with intuitive region selection. Previous methods construct data cubes directly from a data warehouse and build table format cubes with multi-dimensional attributes, in order to specify target ranges for analysis. However, it is a difficult task to select appropriate attributes and their ranges from high cardinality of dimensions with hierarchical structure. The new method reduces the number of dimensions according to the levels of relationship, then confines analysis target ranges with intuitive 3D graphical interface to build an analysis target cube.

In literature several correlation filters have been proposed for image recognition. Traditionally linear correlation is applied among the images for this purpose, however, the operation is not robust when images are corrupted with non-Gaussian noise. In this paper we propose the use of morphological correlation combined with nonlinear filters for robust image recognition. Performance of the proposed technique is compared with that of classical linear filtering in terms of discrimination capability. Computer simulation results are provided and discussed.

A sub-ontology extracted from its base ontology data contains only the concepts and relationships pertaining to the information required by the user. Sub-ontology extraction and sub-ontology tailoring are then viewed as possible solutions to efficiently utilize large-scale ontology data sparsely distributed on a Semantic Grid environment. This shall contribute to reduce the communication overhead in transporting the ontology data, increase the processing performance, improve the reliability in aggregating the required ontology/sub-ontology, and improve the tailoring process of sub-ontology reuse. This paper discussed preliminary experiments as a showcase to illustrate sub ontology extraction and tailoring on a prototype Semantic Grid environment. Functional analysis and discussion of the results are described.
