Study on MOOC scoring algorithm based on Chinese University MOOC learning behavior data
Heliyon, 2018 Existing online learning evaluation methods do not accurately reflect learning effects, which only considers test and assignment scores. A comprehensive evaluation algorithm is proposed in this paper based on the big data of learning behavior.

A mathematical model for entropy generation in a Powell-Eyring nanofluid flow in a porous channel
Heliyon, 2019 The continuous generation of entropy leads to exergy destruction which reduces the performance of a physical system. Hence, entropy minimization becomes necessary.

On the Role of Applied Mathematics
Advances in Mathematics, 1976 AbstractThis paper concerns itself with the nature of applied mathematics, and how to make its role effective. Its differences from pure mathematics and from theoretical sciences are pointed out with the help of illustrative examples. Recommendations are made for supporting a program of education and research in applied mathematics to make it an ...

“Mathematics” applied to Chemistry [PDF]
Nature, 1905 IN his notice of my book “Researches on the Affinities of the Elements” in NATURE, November 16, the reviewer impugns the legality of applying mathematical formulae to my surfaces. I trust I may be allowed to answer briefly my critic's objections. His difficulty as to the non-continuous nature is imaginary, and arises from a mistaking of the object to ...

Effect of time dependent viscosity and radiation efficacy on a non-Newtonian fluid flow
Heliyon, 2019 In the present article we have studied the radiation effects on the flow of a viscoelastic fluid flow past a spongy plate by considering the viscosity as variable.

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Population Ecology, EarlyView.Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Heliyon, 2018 The side sensitive group runs (SSGR) chart is better than both the Shewhart and synthetic charts in detecting small and moderate process mean shifts. In practical circumstances, the process parameters are seldom known, so it is necessary to estimate them
