Harmony-Scatter Search to Solve Travelling Salesman Problem
...Show More Authors

This paper presents a hybrid metaheuristic algorithm which is Harmony-Scatter Search (HSS). The HSS provides Scatter Search (SS) with random exploration for search space of problem and more of diversity and intensification for promising solutions. The SS and HSS have been tested on Traveling Salesman Problem. A computational experiment with benchmark instances is reported. The results demonstrate that the HSS algorithm produce better performance than original Scatter Search algorithm. The HSS in the value of average fitness is 27.6% comparing with original SS. In other hand the elapsed time of HSS is larger than the original SS by small value. The developed algorithm has been compared with other algorithms for the same problem, and the result was competitive with some algorithm and insufficient with another.

Experimental Study of Interior Temperature Distribution Inside Parked Automobile Cabin
...Show More Authors

Temperature inside the vehicle cabin is very important to provide comfortable conditions to the car passengers. Temperature inside the cabin will be increased, when the car is left or parked directly under the sunlight. Experimental studies were performed in Baghdad, Iraq (33.3 oN, 44.4 oE) to investigate the effects of solar radiation on car cabin components (dashboard, steering wheel, seat, and inside air). The test vehicle was oriented to face south to ensure maximum (thermal) sun load on the front windscreen. Six different parking conditions were investigated. A suggested car cover was examined experimentally. The measurements were recorded for clear sky summer days started at 8 A.M. till 5 P.M.

  This paper studies the existence of  positive solutions for the following boundary value problem :-
 
 y(b) 0 α y(a) - β y(a) 0     bta             f(y) g(t) λy    
 
 
The solution procedure follows using the Fixed point theorem and obtains that this problem has at least one positive solution .Also,it determines (  ) Eigenvalue which would be needed to find the positive solution .

Modification Adomian Decomposition Method for solving Seventh OrderIntegro-Differential Equations
...Show More Authors

In this paper, a method based on modified adomian decomposition method for solving Seventh order integro-differential equations (MADM). The distinctive feature of the method is that it can be used to find the analytic solution without transformation of boundary value problems. To test the efficiency of the method presented two examples are solved by proposed method.

Distinction of Two Zero-Spaced Iron Pipes in GPR Radargram for Engineering Problems
...Show More Authors

The researchers have tried to focus on how to determine the number of pipes that are present in one obtained hyperbola in radargram profile. Ground Penetration Radar (GPR) survey was performed to distinguish between two zero-spaced iron pipes in radargram. The field work was carried out by constructing artificial rectangular models with dimensions of length, width, and depth equal to 10.0, 1.0, 0.65 meter respectively that filled with dry clastic mixture deposit, three twin sets of air filled iron pipes of 15.24 cm (6 inch) diameter were buried horizontally and vertically inside the mixture at different distances together. Visual and Numerical interpretation were chosen to get the best results. In the visual interpretation, the amplitude

Teaching Problems Faced by Female Teachers of Students with Intellectual Disability in Special Education Programs and the Proposed Solutions for that from their point of view - a qualitative study
...Show More Authors

This study aims to identify the teaching problems that teachers of students with intellectual disabilities face, in addition to exploring the solutions suggested by them in order to overcome such problems or challenges. The researchers used a qualitative approach in order to understand the teachers' perceptions about these problems in a more in-depth way. The interview tools (in-depth and semi-structured interviews) were used to collect data from (3) female teachers from special education programs in the Asir region. The results revealed a number of themes including problems related to students, teachers and the teaching methods they use, curricula, school environment, and school administration. Moreover, the results indicated that famil

Solving Oscillating Problems Using Modifying Runge-Kutta Methods
...Show More Authors

     This paper develop conventional Runge-Kutta methods of order four and order five to solve ordinary differential equations with oscillating solutions. The new modified Runge-Kutta methods (MRK) contain the invalidation of phase lag, phase lag’s derivatives, and amplification error. Numerical tests from their outcomes show the robustness and competence of the new methods compared to the well-known Runge-Kutta methods in the scientific literature.

Abstract

Prescribing drugs to patients to treat ailments or reducing their morbidity may not be enough, even if the drugs were all indicated and in the right dose. Clinical pharmacists play a pivotal role in conducting information and instruction to patients and conveying feedback to treating physician when appropriate, and the final goal is in the interest of the patient.  Identification and classification of drug related problems and discussing them with the health care providers.  Prospective, interventional, clinical study for 180 hemodialysis patients, and was designed as two phases, an observational phase to identify drug related problems and classifying them according to the latest Pharmaceutical

Solution of 2nd Order Nonlinear Three-Point Boundary Value Problems By Semi-Analytic Technique
...Show More Authors

    In this paper, we present new algorithm for the solution of the second order nonlinear three-point boundary value problem with suitable multi boundary conditions. The algorithm is based on the semi-analytic technique and the solutions which are calculated in the form of a rapid convergent series. It is observed that the method gives more realistic series solution that converges very rapidly in physical problems. Illustrative examples are provided to demonstrate the efficiency and simplicity of the proposed method in solving this type of three point boundary value problems.
