The ability to calculate the material density sensitivity coefficients of power with respect to the material density has broad application prospects for accelerating Monte Carlo-Thermal Hydraulics iterations. The second-order material density sensitivity coefficients for the general Monte Carlo score have been derived based on the differential operator sampling method in this paper, and the calculation of the sensitivity coefficients of cell power scores with respect to the material density has been realized in continuous-energy Monte Carlo code RMC. Based on the power-density sensitivity coefficients, the sensitivity coefficients of power scores to some other physical quantities, such as power-boron concentration coefficients and power-temperature coefficients considering only the thermal expansion, were subsequently calculated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated in the power-density coefficients problems of the pressurized water reactor (PWR) moderator and the heat pipe reactor (HPR) reflectors. The calculations were carried out using RMC and the ENDF/B-VII.1 neutron nuclear data. It is shown that the calculated sensitivity coefficients can be used to predict the power scores accurately over a wide range of boron concentration of the PWR moderator and a wide range of temperature of HPR reflectors.

The enormous success of the theory of hypergeometric series in a single variable has stimulated the development of a corresponding theory in two and more variables. A wide variety of investigations in the theory of several variable hypergeometric functions have been essentially motivated by the fact that solutions of many applied problems involving partial differential equations are obtainable with the help of such hypergeometric functions. Here, in this trend, we aim at presenting further decomposition formulas for Saran function $F_E$, which are used to give some integral representations of the function $F_E$. We also present a system of partial differential equations for the Saran function $F_E$.

A computational method for solving singularly perturbed boundary value problem of differential equation with shift arguments of mixed type is presented. When shift arguments are sufficiently small (o(ε)), most of the existing method in the literature used Taylor's expansion to approximate the shift term. This procedure may lead to a bad approximation when the delay argument is of O(ε). The main idea for this work is to deal with constant shift arguments, which are independent of ε. In the present method, we construct the formally asymptotic solution of the problem using the method of composite expansion. The reduced problem is solved numerically by using operator compact implicit method, and the second problem is solved analytically. Error estimate is derived by using the maximum norm. Numerical examples are provided to support the theoretical results and to show the efficiency of the proposed method.

This article presents an adaptive directional differential evolution (ADDE) algorithm and its application in solving discrete sizing truss optimization problems. The algorithm is featured by a new self-adaptation approach and a simple directional strategy. In the adaptation approach, the mutation operator is adjusted in accordance with the change of population diversity, which can well balance between global exploration and local exploitation as well as locate the promising solutions. The directional strategy is based on the order relation between two difference solutions chosen for mutation and can bias the search direction for increasing the possibility of finding improved solutions. In addition, a new scaling factor is introduced as a vector of uniform random variables to maintain the diversity without crossover operation. Numerical results show that the optimal solutions of ADDE are as good as or better than those from some modern metaheuristics in the literature, while ADDE often uses fewer structural analyses.

This study presents a 4 node, 11 DOF/node plate element based on higher order shear deformation theory for lamina composite plates. The theory accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strain through the thickness of the plate. Differential field equations of composite plates are obtained from energy methods using virtual work principle. Differential field equations of composite plates are obtained from energy methods using virtual work principle. These equations were transformed into the operator form and then transformed into functions with geometric and dynamic boundary conditions with the help of the Gâteaux differential method, after determining that they provide the potential condition. Boundary conditions were determined by performing variational operations. By using the mixed finite element method, plate element named HOPLT44 was developed. After coding in FORTRAN computer program, finite element matrices were transformed into system matrices and various analyzes were performed. The current results are verified with those results obtained in the previous work and the new results are presented in tables and graphs.

In this paper, we establish the existence of solutions and the approximate controllability for the semilinear neutral differential control system under natural assumptions such as the local Lipschitz continuity of nonlinear term. First, we deal with the regularity of solutions of the neutral control system using fractional powers of operators. We also consider the approximate controllability for the semilinear neutral control equation, with a control part in place of a forcing term, using conditions for the range of the controller without the inequality condition as in previous results.

In this paper, we consider the approximate controllability for a class of semilinear integro-differential functional control equations in which nonlinear terms of given equations satisfy quasi-homogeneous properties. The main method used is to make use of the surjective theorems that is similar to Fredholm alternative in the nonlinear case under restrictive assumptions. The sufficient conditions for the approximate controllability is obtain which is different from previous results on the system operator, controller and nonlinear terms. Finally, a simple example to which our main result can be applied is given.

In the article, we handle with the existence and controllability results for fractional impulsive neutral functional integro-differential equation in Banach spaces. We have used advanced phase space definition for infinite delay. State dependent infinite delay is the main motivation using advanced version of phase space. The results are acquired using Schaefer's fixed point theorem. Examples are given to illustrate the theory.

The primary focus of this paper is to thoroughly examine and analyze a coupled system by a Hilfer-Hadamard-type fractional differential equation with coupled boundary conditions. To achieve this, we introduce an operator that possesses fixed points corresponding to the solutions of the problem, effectively transforming the given system into an equivalent fixed-point problem. The necessary conditions for the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the system are established using Banach's fixed point theorem and Schaefer's fixed point theorem. An illustrate example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed controllability results.

We looked at nonlocal controllability for Hilfer fractional differential equations with almost sectorial operator in this manuscript. We show certain necessary criteria for nonlocal controllability using the measure of noncompactness and the Mönch fixed point theorem. Finally, we provided theoretical and practical applications are given to demonstrate how the abstract results might be applied.
