    Abstract: The application of partial differential equations to drumhead vibration, signal transmission and chemical communication in insects has been investigated. This study looked at three cases in communication namely: a single drumbeat on an idealized circular drumhead being struck at the centre of the circular membrane; signal transmission in a Coaxial ...

    Abstract: In this paper, we propose and analyze new two efficient iterative methods for finding the simple roots of nonlinear equations. These methods based on a Jarratt's method, Householder's method and Chun&Kim's method by using a predictor-corrector technique. The error equations are given theoretically to show that the proposed methods have twelfth-orde... Show More

    Abstract: The inclusion of stochastic interest rate is an essential element of any realistic option pricing method. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to incorporate interest rates in the Fourier transform method for pricing European options in exponential Levy models. With the assumption of stochastic independence between the underlying log asset price... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper the idea is to use a coordinate transformation that takes a system of ordinary differential equations with no obvious solution to system of integrables. The techniques that which introduced presented the cases of symmetry transformations also the particular case that involving an integrating factory homogeneous coordinates all these t... Show More
