Title | : | Similarity Solution of an Unsteady Heat and Mass Transfer Boundary Layer Flow over a continuous Surface in a Porous Medium with Hydromagnetic Field |
Country | : | Bangladesh |
Authors | : | Md.Jashim Uddin |
Abstract:The unsteady hydromagnetic boundary layer flow of an incompressible and electrically conducting
fluid through a porous medium bounded by a moving surface has been considered. It is assumed that the moving
surface has a velocity profile with respect to time and fluid flow is taken under the influence of a transverse
magnetic field. The similarity solution is used to transform the system of partial differential equations,
describing the problem under consideration, into a boundary value problem of coupled ordinary differential
equations and an efficient numerical technique is implemented to solve the reduced system. The effects of the
parameters such as Magnetic parameter, Prandtl number and Eckert number are discussed graphically on
velocity and temperature distributions.

Title | : | On The Application of Hyperbolic Activation Function in Computing the Acceleration of Reverse Analysis Method |
Country | : | Nigeria |
Authors | : | Augustine Pwasong || Caleb Nimyel |
Abstract:Hyperbolic activation function is examined for its ability to accelerate the performance of doing data
mining by using a technique named as Reverse Analysis method. In this paper, we describe how Hopfield
network perform better with hyperbolic activation function and able to induce logical rules from large database
by using reverse analysis method: given the values of the connections of a network, we hope to determine what
logical rules are entrenched in the database. We limit our analysis to Horn clauses. The analysis for this study
was simulated using Microsoft Visual C++ software, 2010 Express.

Title | : | The Impact of Social Networks on Tertiary Education |
Country | : | Nigeria |
Authors | : | Caleb Nanchen Nimyel || Garba Gabriel Naankang |
Abstract:Since the inception of the Internet and the integration of email technology into our personal and work lives especially in academics, our ways of communication began to metamorphose. The Internet, which is consortium computer networks, is transforming educational processes and interpersonal communication especially through Social Networks. Young people, born into a world of laptops and cell phones, text messaging and tweeting, continually spend time exposed to digital technology and streaming so much that they perhaps experience fundamentally different brain development that favors constant communication and multitasking.

Title | : | Application of Regression and Neural Network Models in Computing Forecasts for Crude Oil Productions |
Country | : | Nigeria |
Authors | : | Augustine Pwasong || Caleb Nimyel |
Abstract: In this study, a quadratic regression model and a two layered layer recurrent neural network (TLLRNN) method were used to model forecasting performance of the daily crude oil production data of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). The two methods were applied on the difference series and log difference series of the NNPC series. The results indicates that the two layered layer recurrent neural network model have better forecasting per-formance greater than the quadratic regression method based on the mean error square sense. The root mean square error (RMSE) and the mean absolute error (MAE) were applied to ascertain the assertion that the two layered layer recurrent neural network method have better forecasting performance greater than the quadratic regression method. The outcome of the analysis also indicates that modeling forecasting performance of the NNPC data with the log dif-ference series of the data gives greater forecasting performances than modeling with the difference series of the NNPC data irrespective of the method used in modeling with the series.

Title | : | A Study on Differential Equations on the Sphere Using Leapfrog Method |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | S.Karunanithi || S. Chakravarthy || S. Sekar |
Abstract:In this article, a new method of analysis of the differential equations on the sphere using Leapfrog method is presented. To illustrate the effectiveness of the Leapfrog method, an example of the dif ferential equations on the sphere has been considered and the solutions were obtained using methods taken taken from the literature [17] and Leapfrog method. The obtained discrete solutions are compared with the exact solutions of the differential equations on the sphere. Solution graphs for the differential equations on the sphere have been presented in the graphical form to show the efficiency of this Leapfrog method. This Leapfrog method can be easily implemented in a digital computer and the solution can be obtained for any length of time.

Title | : | Exact solutions for weakly singular Volterra integral equations by using an efficient iterative method |
Country | : | Iraq |
Authors | : | M. A. AL-Jawary || A. M. Shehan |
Abstract:In this paper, an iterative method proposed by Daftardar-Gejji and Jafari namely (DJM) will be presented to solve the weakly singular Volterra integral equation (WSVIE) of the second kind. This method is able to solve large class of linear and nonlinear equations effectively, more accurately and easily. In this iterative method the solution is obtained in the series form that converges to the exact solution if it exists. The main contribution of the current paper is to obtain the exact solution rather than numerical solution as done by some existing techniques.
