Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUsing Regression to Establish Weights for a Set of Composite Equations through a Numerical Analysis Approach: A Case of Admission Criteria to a CollegeRamzi Naim Nasser, Viviane NaimyProblem statement: Mathematically little is known of college admission criteria as in school grade point average, admission test scores or rank in class and weighting of the criteria into a composite equation. Approach: This study presented a method to obtain weights on “composite admission” equation. The method uses an iterative procedure to build a prediction equation for an optimal weighted … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,185 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestment, Taxes and the Cost of Capital: An Euler Equation Specification TestHuntley SchallerProblem statement: Previous studies (primarily employing goodness-of-fit tests) have found it difficult to provide clear and direct evidence that taxes and the interest rate have a strong influence on investment. Approach: The objective of this study was to test whether the cost of capital, which includes taxes and the interest rate, affects investment. This study used the Euler equation for … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Method for Constructing the Coefficients of Pressure Correction Equation for Colocated Unstructured GridsR. Rafee, H. RahimzadehOne of the important equations in numerical solution of Navier Stokes equations is the pressure correction equation. In this article, a new method for constructing the coefficients of this equation for colocated unstructured meshes is proposed. This method is based on momentum interpolation. The method is compared with the approach adopted in literature. The complete discretization of the Navier Stokes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,142 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHomotopy Perturbation Method and Variational Iteration Method for Solving Zakharov-Kuznetsov EquationB. Ganjavi, H. Mohammadi, D.D. Ganji, A. BarariThis article investigates a nonlinear dispersive Zakharov-Kuznetsov ZK (3, 3, 3) equation. This equation governs the behavior of weakly nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in plasma comprising cold ions and hot isothermal electrons in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) and Variational Iteration Method (VIM) are implemented for solving the ZK equation. Homotopy results were compared with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,802 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePower Series Solution for a Two-step Reactive-diffusive Equation with Variable Pre-exponential FactorE.A. Adebile, O.K. Koriko, U.S. IdiongWe discussed in this research a power series method for solution of a two-step reactive-diffusive equation with variable pre-exponential factor. A transformation was used to fit in the geometry of the model to allow an asymptotic series expansion which is invoked in a two compartmental regions with respect to the spatial variable. Adequate matching conditions were used at the interface … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,855 accessesView PDFCite
