Tide tables are the method of choice for water level predictions in most coastal regions. However, for many locations along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, tide tables do not meet United States National Ocean Service (NOS) ...

Tide charts, based upon harmonic analysis, is the general method of choice for predicting water levels. In the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico, however, tide charts are woefully inadequate for the prediction of water ...

In this work we present numerical results for the 2D problem of scattering E polarised whispering-gallery mode from concave convex perfectly conducting boundary. The results were obtained by applying the developed method ...

What happens when you press the sine key on your calculator? How does a calculator quickly produce the values of trigonometric functions? For instance, how does the TI-89 calculate sin 1.0? You might be surprised to know ...

The determination of critical points of mixtures is important for both practical and theoretical reasons in the modeling of phase behavior, especially at high pressure. The equations that describe the behavior of complex ...

The risk free rate on bonds is a very important quantity that allows calculation of premium values on bonds. This quantity of stochastic nature has been modeled with different degrees of sophistication. This paper reviews ...

In this paper is presented a distributed algorithm based on Ant System concepts,called Combinatorial Ant System, to solve dynamic combinatorial optimization problems. Our approach consists of mapping the solution space of ...
