By associating last progresses in photography, computer science and additive manufacturing, cost-effective planar stitching of non-structured photographs of microscope slides into high definition large pictures is achievable. The proposed method, inspired by previous works and state-of-the art equipment, uses non-professional camera, little pre-processing, no post processing, and little to no investment is needed. A total duration of 41 min was observed to create a high-quality, high-resolution full picture of a sagittal cross-section of a permanent maxillary central incisor, from 16 original photographs with a \(\times\)40 microscope optical magnification. Final pictures weights are in-between 60 Mo and 340 Mo, depending on the format and the number of initial photographs. Higher magnification does not seem to enhance pictures, but sensibly increases file weight. This method has numerous applications, such as research, sharing and teaching and will certainly be enhanced in the future thanks to the high speed development of smartphone abilities.

With the establishment of 200-mile territorial zone in the Bay of Bengal for most countries having coastlines. The control of fishing in these zones has become highly regulated by these countries concerned. In this sense, fishing in territorial waters can be considered a sole owner fishery problem. If the people of a country are allowed to fish freely in the territorial zones, it can be termed as an open access fishery. In an open access fishery, the exploitation of fishing opportunity is completely uncontrolled. This study deals with the problem of harvesting in the prey-predator fishery model in the open access zones and seeks a plan for prey for sustainable fishing, particularly in Sundarbans ecosystem which is situated in the coastal area of the Bay of Bengal. The positive steady state of both local and global stability has been established. Optimal harvesting strategy is also studied for these purposes.

In this article, we introduce new subclasses of normalized analytic functions in the unit disk \(U\), defined by a generalized Raducanu-Orhan differential Operator. Various results are driven including coefficient inequalities, growth and distortion theorem, closure property, \(\delta$\)-neighborhoods, extreme points, radii of close-to-convexity, starlikeness and convexity for these subclasses.

The performance of fins, commonly used as heat enhancement devices are greatly affected by both the geometry and material properties. These consideration in fin design has stimulated an extensive research interest in the recent time. In this study, investigation on the thermal responses of moving irregular porous fins with trapezoidal, concave and convex profiles of copper, aluminium, silicon nitrides and stainless steel materials is examined. The developed thermal model is solved using differential transform method (DTM). On the verification of result obtained with numerical method using Runge-Kutta, a good agreement with the solution of approximate method is achieved. In the parametric studies carried out, the effect of physical parameters such as convective-conductive, convective-radiative term, internal heat generation, porosity, surface emissivity, power index of heat transfer coefficient, Peclet number and Darcy number on the thermal behaviour of fins are examined and discussed. The comparative analysis carried out on the effect of materials on non-dimensional temperature distribution reveals that copper obtains the highest temperature while the stainless steel gets the lowest. More-so, the fins with concave geometry gives the highest volume adjusted efficiency with increase in Peclet number while that with convex profile has the least. These result output are essential and would be useful in the future design of fins with optimum size reduction and high efficiency.

The article investigates the behaviour of the multiplication table of the ring \(\mathbb{Z}_n\). To count the number of 1s appear on the main diagonal of the multiplication table of \(\mathbb{Z}_n\), conclusively an explicit formula is induced for any \(n \geq 2\).

By using some mixed techniques of the Mawhin coincidence degree theory and the Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem, we obtained the existence of positive periodic solutions of the neutral nonlinear differential system. Also, sufficient conditions for the existence of positive periodic solutions to the system with feedback control are given. Our results substantially extend and improve existing results.

Generating homotopy-based approaches (HBAs) in thermal-fluid sciences is an efficient manner for finding absolutely convergent series expansions. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the viscoelastic Walter’s B fluid past a stretching wall. To answer this, the governing differential equation is derived by substituting similarity variables into the partial differential equations (PDEs) and associated boundary conditions. The present HBA is also developed by minimizing the averaged square residual error included in the quadratic resistance law (QRL). By comparing the present findings with those available in the literature, it is seen that the 9th-order HBA can provide an incredible degree of accuracy and reliability. Furthermore, it is found that the central processing unit (CPU) time is greatly reduced when the auxiliary parameter is selected as \(\hbar\)=-0.122.

In this paper, we extend some estimates of the right hand side of a Hermite- Hadamard-Fejér type inequality for generalized convex functions whose derivatives absolute values are generalized convex via local fractional integrals.

This work is concerned with a comparative study of performances of meshfree (radial basis functions) and mesh-based (finite difference) schemes in terms of their accuracy and computational efficiency while solving multi-dimensional initial-boundary value problems governed by a nonlinear time-dependent reaction-diffusion Brusselator system. For computing the approximate solution of the Brusselator system, we use linearly implicit Crank-Nicolson (LICN) scheme, Peaceman-Rachford alternating direction implicit (ADI) scheme and exponential time differencing locally one dimensional (ETD-LOD) scheme as mesh-based schemes and multiquadric radial basis function (MQRBF) as a meshfree scheme. A few numerical results are reported.
