The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new class of rings that is closely related to the class of pseudo-Krull domains. Let 𝓗 = {R | R is a commutative ring and Nil(R) is a divided prime ideal of R}. Let R ∈ 𝓗 be a ring with total quotient ring T(R) and define 𝜙 : T(R) → R_Nil(R) by ${\phi}({\frac{a}{b}})={\frac{a}{b}}$ for any a ∈ R and any regular element b of R. Then 𝜙 is a ring homomorphism from T(R) into R_Nil(R) and 𝜙 restricted to R is also a ring homomorphism from R into R_Nil(R) given by ${\phi}(x)={\frac{x}{1}}$ for every x ∈ R. We say that R is a 𝜙-pseudo-Krull ring if 𝜙(R) = ∩ R_i, where each R_i is a nonnil-Noetherian 𝜙-pseudo valuation overring of 𝜙(R) and for every non-nilpotent element x ∈ R, 𝜙(x) is a unit in all but finitely many R_i. We show that the theories of 𝜙-pseudo Krull rings resemble those of pseudo-Krull domains.

This study investigates the population model of the spread of HIV/AIDS which the infection is generated by an infectious individual in a population of susceptible. A mathematical model is presented for the transmission dynamics of HIV infection within the communities of homosexual males. The pattern on the epidemic character of HIV, the causative agent of AIDS, was analysed by the mathematical model of AIDS system which is derived according to the ecological relationship between five epidemilogic states of individuals. The computer simulation was performed using real data and the following conclusions are drawn on the basis of the simulations. 1. The model structure and the algorithm described n the thesis is good. 2. In proportion to increase Ro, the population of AIDS patient increases and the time of its widespread reaches earlier. 3. The AIDS patients will be maximum between 7 and 21 years after an attack of AIDS and widespread between 10 and 20 years. 4. Considering the properties of the incubation periods, the maximum number of infected person is increased, and the attack rate is decreased.

The development of Science and Technology and the social change require new paradigm in Education. In a traditional paradigm, learners have been regarded as a passive being and knowledge could be transmitted to learner. But within this paradigm, it is difficult to confront the social change and to develop problem solving skills in various context. This results in a new, alternative perspective, Constructive paradigm. As an alternative to the traditional settings, Constructive paradigm emphasizes the learner centered instruction. The reform movement in mathematics education including NCTM's standards revolves around this paradigm and the open education movement in our educational system is based on it. Open education values learner's interest, autonomy and internal motivation in learning. However, open education has been misunderstood by most of the teachers. It should be understood as the change of paradigm. In this study, as a way of helping students connect mathematics to their everyday lives and construct meaningful mathematical knowledge and concept, mathematical modelling is suggested. It consists of posing and specifying the real problem, formulation and constructing a mathematical model, analyzing and solving a mathematical problem. interpreting the solution and comparing with reality and communicating results. In this process, technology like computer can be a powerful tool. It can help students explore various problems more easily and concretely.

In this paper, we introduce and investigate a new class of modules that is closely related to the class of Noetherian modules. Let R be a commutative ring and M be an R-module. We say that M is an r-Noetherian module if every r-submodule of M is finitely generated. Also, we call the ring R to be an r-Noetherian ring if R is an r-Noetherian R-module, or equivalently, every r-ideal of R is finitely generated. We show that many properties of Noetherian modules are also true for r-Noetherian modules. Moreover, we extend the concept of weakly Noetherian rings to the category of modules and we characterize Noetherian modules in terms of r-Noetherian and weakly Noetherian modules. Finally, we use the idealization construction to give non-trivial examples of r-Noetherian rings that are not Noetherian.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and S be a multiplicatively closed subset of R. In this article we introduce a new class of ring, called S-multiplication rings which are S-versions of multiplication rings. An R-module M is said to be S-multiplication if for each submodule N of M, sN ⊆ JM ⊆ N for some s ∈ S and ideal J of R (see for instance [4, Definition 1]). An ideal I of R is called S-multiplication if I is an S-multiplication R-module. A commutative ring R is called an S-multiplication ring if each ideal of R is S-multiplication. We characterize some special rings such as multiplication rings, almost multiplication rings, arithmetical ring, and S-P IR. Moreover, we generalize some properties of multiplication rings to S-multiplication rings and we study the transfer of this notion to various context of commutative ring extensions such as trivial ring extensions and amalgamated algebras along an ideal.

Let R be a commutative graded ring with nonzero identity and n a positive integer. Our principal aim in this paper is to introduce and study the notions of graded n-irreducible and strongly graded n-irreducible ideals which are generalizations of n-irreducible and strongly n-irreducible ideals to the context of graded rings, respectively. A proper graded ideal I of R is called graded n-irreducible (respectively, strongly graded n-irreducible) if for each graded ideals I₁, . . . , I_n+1 of R, I = I₁ ∩ · · · ∩ I_n+1 (respectively, I₁ ∩ · · · ∩ I_n+1 ⊆ I ) implies that there are n of the I_i 's whose intersection is I (respectively, whose intersection is in I). In order to give a graded study to this notions, we give the graded version of several other results, some of them are well known. Finally, as a special result, we give an example of a graded n-irreducible ideal which is not an n-irreducible ideal and an example of a graded ideal which is graded n-irreducible, but not graded (n - 1)-irreducible.

The use of metric trial functions to represent the real stress field in what is called the unsymmetric finite element formulation is an effective way to improve predictions from distorted finite elements. This approach works surprisingly well because the use of parametric functions for the test functions satisfies the continuity conditions while the use of metric (Cartesian) shape functions for the trial functions attempts to ensure that the stress representation during finite element computation can retrieve in a best-fit manner, the actual variation of stress in the metric space. However, the issue of how to handle situations where there is locking along with mesh distortion has never been addressed. In this paper, we show that the use of a consistent definition of the constrained strain field in the metric space can ensure a lock-free solution even when there is mesh distortion. The three-noded Timoshenko beam element is used to illustrate the principles. Some significant conclusions are drawn regarding the optimal strategy for finite element modelling where distortion effects and field-consistency requirements have to be reconciled simultaneously.

Models for water treatment processes include simulation, i.e., modelling of water quality, flow hydraulics, process controls and design. Water treatment processes are inherently dynamic because of the large variations in the influent water flow rate, concentration and composition. Moreover, these variations are to a large extent not possible to control. Mathematical models and computer simulations are essential to describe, predict and control the complicated interactions of the water treatment processes. An accurate description of such systems can therefore result in highly complex models, which may not be very useful from a practical, operational point of view. The main objective is to combine knowledge of the process dynamics with mathematical methods for processes estimation and identification. Good modelling practice is way to obtain this objective and to improve water treatment processes(its understanding, design, control and performance- efficiency). By synthesize of existing knowledge and experience on good modelling practices and principles the aim is to help address the critical strategic gaps and weaknessesin water treatment models application.

To assess the groundwater flow near high-level radioactive waste repositories, it is important to understand the effect of coupling among thermal, hydraulic, and mechanical effects. In this paper, detailed mathematical approach to model the groundwater flow near the waste form surrounded by buffer, influenced by decay heat of radioactive waste along with stress change is developed. Two cases(1) before the full expansion of buffer and (2) after the full expansion of buffer are modelled. Based on the mathematical models in this paper, detailed numerical study shall be pursued later.

학생들이 실세계와 수학적 세계사이를 연관시켜 사고하고 해석하는 방법 및 실제 문제를 해결하는 일반적인 전략의 방법론의 하나가 수학적 모델링(Mathematical modelling)이라고 볼 수 있다. 한편, 수학 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 과정에서 구체적인 조작 활동을 통하여 학생 스스로가 지식을 ‘구성(construction)’ 할 수 있도록 해 주어야 한다는 구성주의적 사조가 대두되고 있는데, 본 논문에서는 구성주의적 관점에서 수학적 모델링을 통한 수학 교수 ${\cdot}$ 지도를 위한 활용 방안을 한 예시를 통해서 고찰해 보고자 한다.
