  • The demand on the underwater communications is extremely increasing in searching for underwater resources, marine expedition, or environmental researches, yet there are many problems with the wireless communications because of the characteristics of the underwater environments. Especially, with the underwater wireless networks, there happen inevitable delay time and spacial inequality due to the distances between the nodes. To solve these problems, this paper suggests a new solution based on ALOHA-Q. The suggested method use random NAV value. and Environments take reward through communications success or fail. After then, The environments setting NAV value from reward. This model minimizes usage of energy and computing resources under the underwater wireless networks, and learns and setting NAV values through intense learning. The results of the simulations show that NAV values can be environmentally adopted and select best value to the circumstances, so the problems which are unnecessary delay times and spacial inequality can be solved. Result of simulations, NAV time decreasing 17.5% compared with original NAV.

  • Children from low income families are vulnerable to physical problems including obesity, asthma, hypertension and psychological problems including depression, anxiety. This study was done to identify trends in welfare policy for children from low-income families and future direction for solving health disparity problems. Dream Start is a government-sponsored project that offers services for vulnerable children, ages 0 (include pregnant woman) to 12 years and their families. The Korean Government has made an effort to alleviate health disparity through the 'Health Plan' by establishing health objectives. However, in spite of these efforts by the Korean government, health disparity has worsened in Korea. In order to strengthen family function as well as promote growth and development for vulnerable children, experts in child care need to be significantly involved in identifying neglected children in the community.

  • Limit analysis has been rendered versatile in many problems such as structural problems and metal forming problems. In metal forming analysis, a slip-line method and an upper bound method approach to limit solutions is considered as the most challenging areas. In the present work, a general algorithm for limit solutions of plastic flow is developed with the use of finite element limit analysis. The algorithm deals with a generalized Holder inequality, a duality theorem, and a combined smoothing and successive approximation in addition to a general procedure for finite element analysis. The algorithm is robust such that from any initial trial solution, the first iteration falls into a convex set which contains the exact solution(s) of the problem. The idea of the algorithm for limit solution is extended from rigid/perfectly-plastic materials to work-hardening materials by the nature of the limit formulation, which is also robust with numerically stable convergence and highly efficient computing time.

  • Power system analysis, Non-Convex Economic Dispatch (NED) is considered as an open and demanding optimization problem. Despite the fact that realistic ED problems have non-convex cost functions with equality and inequality constraints, conventional search methods have not been able to effectively find the global answers. Considering the great potential of meta-heuristic optimization techniques, many researchers have started applying these techniques in order to solve NED problems. In this paper, a new and efficient approach is proposed based on imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA). The proposed algorithm which is named multi-operator ICA (MuICA) merges three operators with the original ICA in order to simultaneously avoid the premature convergence and achieve the global optimum answer. In this study, the proposed algorithm has been applied to different test systems and the results have been compared with other optimization methods, tending to study the performance of the MuICA. Simulation results are the confirmation of superior performance of MuICA in solving NED problems.

  • Biaffine Matrix Inequality (BMI) is known to provide the most general framework in control synthesis, but problems involving BMI's are very difficult to solve because nonconvex optimization should be solved. In the previous paper, we proposed a new solver for problems involving BMI's using Evolutionary Algorithms (EA). In this paper, we solve several control synthesis examples such as Reduced-order control, Simultaneous stabilization, Multi-objective control, $H_{\infty}$ optimal control, Maxed $H_2$ / $H_{\infty}$control design, and Robust $H_{\infty}$ control. Each of these problems is formulated as the standard BMI form, and solved by the proposed algorithm. The performance in each case is compared with those of conventional methods.

  • The well-known Vlasov-Poisson equation describes plasma physics as nonlinear first-order partial differential equations. Because of the nonlinear condition from the self consistency of the Vlasov-Poisson equation, many problems occur: the existence, the numerical solution, the convergence of the numerical solution, and so on. To solve the problems, a viscosity term (a second-order partial differential equation) is added. In a viscosity term, the Vlasov-Poisson equation changes into a parabolic equation like the Fokker-Planck equation. Therefore, the Schauder fixed point theorem and the classical results on parabolic equations can be used for analyzing the Vlasov-Poisson equation. The sequence and the convergence results are obtained from linearizing the Vlasove-Poisson equation by using a fixed point theorem and Gronwall's inequality. In numerical experiments, an implicit first-order scheme is used. The numerical results are tested using the changed viscosity terms.

  • Let 𝒜n be the class of analytic functions f(z) of the form f(z) = z + ∑k=n+1 αkzk, n ∈ ℕ defined on the open unit disk 𝔻, and let $${\Omega}_n:=\{f{\in}{\mathcal{A}}_n:\|zf^{\prime}(z)-f(z)\|<{\frac{1}{2}},\;z{\in}{\mathbb{D}}\}$$. In this paper, we make use of differential subordination technique to obtain sufficient conditions for the class Ωn. Writing Ω := Ω1, we obtain inclusion properties of Ω with respect to functions which map 𝔻 onto certain parabolic regions and as a consequence, establish a relation connecting the parabolic starlike class 𝒮P and the uniformly starlike UST. Various radius problems for the class Ω are considered and the sharpness of the radii estimates is obtained analytically besides graphical illustrations.

  • In this paper, we introduce a class of generalized quasivariational inclusions for fuzzy mappings and show its equivalence with a class of fixed point problems. Using this equivalence, we develop the Mann and Ishikawa type perturbed iterative algorithms for this class of generalized quasivariational inclusions. Further, we prove the existence of solutions for the class of generalized quasivariational inclusions and discuss the convergence criteria for the perturbed algorithms.
