The European laws and recently the Romanian ones impose more and more strict norms to the large nitrogen dioxide polluters. They are obligated to continuously improve the installations and products so that they limit and reduce the nitrogen dioxide pollution, because it has negative effects on the human health and environment. In this paper are presented these researches made within a case study for the Timi�oara municipality, regarding the modeling and simulation of the nitrogen dioxide dispersion phenomenon coming from various sources in atmosphere with the help of analytical-experimental methods. The mathematical model resulting from these researches is accurately enough to describe the real situation. This was confirmed by comparing the results obtained based on the model with real experimental values.

The piped hydraulic transportation of tube-contained raw material is an emerging technique for transporting materials. In this technique, the piped vehicle is one of the core components, and its motion characteristics directly determine the transportation energy consumption and the transportation cost of this technique. To study the motion characteristics of the piped vehicle, the force of the piped vehicle was analyzed from the mechanical perspective in this paper. On the assumption that the piped vehicle moved steadily and it had sufficient stiffness, the mathematical model of the piped vehicle motion was established in the turbulent flow according to the stress characteristics of the piped vehicle and the factors influencing its motion characteristics, and then the mathematical model was tested by experiments. The findings show that the calculated values of the velocities of the piped vehicle were identical to the experimental values with changes in various influencing factors. When the flow discharge, the diameter or length of the piped vehicle increased, or the mass of transported material decreased, the velocity of the piped vehicle increased. The maximum relative error did not exceed 9.47%, which proved that the mathematical model of the piped vehicle motion was rational. The results can provide theoretical basis to improve the structure of the piped vehicle and the piped hydraulic transportation technique of tube-contained raw material.

Lapping is a finishing process where loose abrasive grains contained in a slurry are pressed against a workpiece to reduce its surface roughness. To perform a lapping operation, the user needs to set the values of the respective lapping conditions (e.g., pressure, depth of cut, the rotational speed of the pressing lap plate, and alike) based on some material properties of the workpiece, abrasive grains, and slurry, as well as on the desired surface roughness. Therefore, a mathematical model is needed that establishes the relationships among the abovementioned parameters. The mathematical model can be used to develop a lapping operation optimization system, as well. To this date, such a model and system are not available mainly because the relationships among lapping conditions, material properties of abrasive grains and slurry, and surface roughness are difficult to establish. This study solves this problem. It presents a mathematical model establishing the required relationships. It also presents a system developed based on the mathematical model. In addition, the efficacy of the system is also shown using a case study. This study thus helps systematize lapping operations in regard to real-world applications.

A methodology is proposed for designing a mathematical model for shock absorbers; the proposal is guided by characteristic diagrams of the shock absorbers. These characteristic diagrams (Force-Displacement, Velocity-Acceleration) are easily constructed from experimental data generated by standard tests. By analyzing the diagrams at different frequencies of interest, they can be classified into one of seven patterns, to guide the design of a model. Finally, the identification of the mathematical model can be obtained using conventional algorithms. This methodology has generated highly non-linear models for 2 degrees of freedom magneto-rheological dampers with high precision (2–10% errors).

Abstract This study aimed to detect the most important factor that affects dates production. About 108 questionary forms collecttted palm orchard farmers in Karbala to estimate the dates production function in Karbala governorate for the agricultural season 2021 (the district of Al-jadual Al-Gharby). The study distributed those formmmsss for about 10% of the total palm orchards in Al-jadual Al-Gharby district of the holy governorate of Karbala. The study used the method of ordinary Least squares (OLS) to estimate the mathematical model of the function. The results showed that the double Logarithmic function in terms of its estimation of the estimated Coefficients by one unit leads to a corresponding change in the produced quality of dates and the same direction by 0.188 0.808) % respectively, and that the capital variable is more in fluently in production than the work variable. As for the total production elasticity (the sum of the partial elasticities of the resources used), which represents returns to scale, it amounted to about (0.996), which indicates a decrease in the return to scale.

The optimum tilt angle of solar panels or collectors is crucial when determining parameters that affect the performance of those panels. A mathematical model is used for determining the optimum tilt angle and for calculating the solar radiation on a south-facing surface on a daily, monthly, seasonal, semi-annual, and annual basis. Photovoltaic Geographical Information System (PVGIS) and Photovoltaic Software (PVWatts) is developed by the NREL (US National Renewable Energy Laboratory) are also used to calculate the optimum monthly, seasonal, semi-annual, and annual tilt angles and to compare these results with the results obtained from the mathematical model. The results are very similar. PVGIS and PVWatts are used to estimate the solar radiation on south-facing surfaces with different tilt angles. A case study of a mono-crystalline module with 5 kWP of peak power is used to find out the amount of increased energy (gains) obtained by adjusting the Photovoltaic (PV) tilt angles based on yearly, semi-annual, seasonal, and monthly tilt angles. The results show that monthly adjustments of the solar panels in the main Palestinian cities can generate about 17% more solar energy than the case of solar panels fixed on a horizontal surface. Seasonal and semi-annual adjustments can generate about 15% more energy (i.e., it is worth changing the solar panels 12 times a year (monthly) or at least 2 times a year (semi-annually). The yearly optimum tilt angle for most Palestinian cities is about 29°, which yields an increase of about 10% energy gain compared to a solar panel fixed on a horizontal surface.

The examination of maneuvering qualities of a ship is necessary to ensure its navigational safety and prediction of trajectory. The study of maneuverability of a ship is a three-step process, which involves selection of a suitable mathematical model, estimation of the hydrodynamic derivatives occurring in the equation of motion, and simulation of the standard maneuvering tests to determine its maneuvering qualities. This paper reports the maneuvering studies made on a container ship model (S175). The mathematical model proposed by Son and Nomoto (1981, “On Coupled Motion of Steering and Rolling of a High Speed Container Ship,” J. Soc. Nav. Arch. Jpn., 150, pp. 73–83) suitable for the nonlinear roll-coupled steering model for high-speed container ships is considered here. The hydrodynamic derivatives are determined by numerically simulating the planar motion mechanism (PMM) tests in pure yaw and combined sway–yaw mode using an Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes Equations (RANSE)-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver. The tests are repeated with the model inclined at different heel angles to obtain the roll-coupled derivatives. Standard definitive maneuvers like turning tests at rudder angle, 35 deg and 20 deg/20 deg zig-zag maneuvers are simulated using the numerically obtained derivatives and are compared with those obtained using experimental values.

The objective of this paper is to determine the number and species of trees to be planted in order to maximize a profit through an integer linear programming model. The mathematical model is developed in terms of the profit function. This objective function is therefore, a difference between carbon credit revenue and costs of plantation. The economical plants are only considered in the model. Consequently, fourteen different tree species are to be investigated. The objective function is subjected to several constraints i.e. planting area, carbon sequestration and so on. The planting envelope of each tree is assigned 4 by 4 meters. In this paper, the Eastern part of Thailand is considered the case study. It is found that three kinds of plants, Copper pod, Cananga, and Bullet wood are suitable for planting. A number of trees to be planted in 1600 square meter are twenty, thirty, and fifty plants respectively. The profit earned is of 12,112 $ per year in the next fifth year.

Catenary theory is recognized as the most effective suspension theory which can reflect the real situation of suspension. Catenary equation belongs to transcendental function, so there are some difficulties in calculation and application. Parabola theory, suspension curve theory and perturbation method are gradually formed as the theoretical basis for the study of suspension cables. This paper takes the 500m spherical radio telescope project as the background. The modeling method of suspension cable under multiple concentrated loads is analyzed, and the mathematical model of supporting cable after load is derived. The research in this paper provides a reference for the establishment of mathematical model of suspension cable in practice.
