The present study proposes an extreme learning machine (ELM) and a support vector machine (SVM) integrated with the response surface methodology (RSM) to solve the complexity in optimization and prediction of the ethyl ester and methyl ester production process. The novel hybrid models of ELM-RSM and ELM-SVM are further used as a case study to estimate the yield of methyl and ethyl esters through a trans-esterification process from waste cooking oil (WCO) based on American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards. The results of the prediction phase were also compared with artificial neural networks (ANNs) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), which were recently developed by the second author of this study. Based on the results, an ELM with a correlation coefficient of 0.9815 and 0.9863 for methyl and ethyl esters, respectively, had a high estimation capability compared with that for SVM, ANNs, and ANFIS. Accordingly, the maximum production yield was obtained in the case of using ELM-RSM of 96.86\% for ethyl ester at a temperature of 68.48 °C, a catalyst value of 1.15 wt. \%, mixing intensity of 650.07 rpm, and an alcohol to oil molar ratio (A/O) of 5.77; for methyl ester, the production yield was 98.46\% at a temperature of 67.62 °C, a catalyst value of 1.1 wt. \%, mixing intensity of 709.42 rpm, and an A/O of 6.09. Therefore, ELM-RSM increased the production yield by 3.6\% for ethyl ester and 3.1\% for methyl ester, compared with those for the experimental data.}, subject = {Biodiesel}, language = {en} } @article{IlyaniAkmarLahmerBordasetal., author = {Ilyani Akmar, A.B. and Lahmer, Tom and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Beex, L.A.A. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Uncertainty quantification of dry woven fabrics: A sensitivity analysis on material properties}, series = {Composite Structures}, journal = {Composite Structures}, doi = {10.1016/j.compstruct.2014.04.014}, pages = {1 -- 17}, abstract = {Uncertainty quantification of dry woven fabrics: A sensitivity analysis on material properties}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{VuBacRafieeZhuangetal., author = {Vu-Bac, N. and Rafiee, Roham and Zhuang, Xiaoying and Lahmer, Tom and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Uncertainty quantification for multiscale modeling of polymer nanocomposites with correlated parameters}, series = {Composites Part B: Engineering}, journal = {Composites Part B: Engineering}, pages = {446 -- 464}, abstract = {Uncertainty quantification for multiscale modeling of polymer nanocomposites with correlated parameters}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{GoebelLahmerOsburg, author = {G{\"o}bel, Luise and Lahmer, Tom and Osburg, Andrea}, title = {Uncertainty analysis in multiscale modeling of concrete based on continuum micromechanics}, series = {European Journal of Mechanics-A/Solids}, journal = {European Journal of Mechanics-A/Solids}, abstract = {Uncertainty analysis in multiscale modeling of concrete based on continuum micromechanics}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{GhasemiRafieeZhuangetal., author = {Ghasemi, Hamid and Rafiee, Roham and Zhuang, Xiaoying and Muthu, Jacob and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Uncertainties propagation in metamodel-based probabilistic optimization of CNT/polymer composite structure using stochastic multi-scale modeling}, series = {Computational Materials Science}, journal = {Computational Materials Science}, pages = {295 -- 305}, abstract = {Uncertainties propagation in metamodel-based probabilistic optimization of CNT/polymer composite structure using stochastic multi-scale modeling}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{NanthakumarLahmerZhuangetal., author = {Nanthakumar, S.S. and Lahmer, Tom and Zhuang, Xiaoying and Park, Harold S. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Topology optimization of piezoelectric nanostructures}, series = {Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids}, journal = {Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids}, pages = {316 -- 335}, abstract = {Topology optimization of piezoelectric nanostructures}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{AlemuHabteLahmeretal., author = {Alemu, Yohannes L. and Habte, Bedilu and Lahmer, Tom and Urgessa, Girum}, title = {Topologically preoptimized ground structure (TPOGS) for the optimization of 3D RC buildings}, series = {Asian Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Asian Journal of Civil Engineering}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham}, doi = {10.1007/s42107-023-00640-2}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20230517-63677}, pages = {1 -- 11}, abstract = {As an optimization that starts from a randomly selected structure generally does not guarantee reasonable optimality, the use of a systemic approach, named the ground structure, is widely accepted in steel-made truss and frame structural design.

Such a one-time fixed layout trend, in addition to its lack of a systemic approach, does not necessarily guarantee optimality. In this study, an approach for generating a candidate ground structure to be used for cost or weight minimization of 3D RC building structures with included slabs is developed. A multiobjective function at the floor optimization stage and a single objective function at the frame optimization stage are considered. A particle swarm optimization (PSO) method is employed for selecting the optimal ground structure. This method enables generating a simple, yet potential, real-world representation of topologically preoptimized ground structure while both structural and main architectural requirements are considered.

In this work, we employ reverse nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (RNEMD) to the systematical study of the thermal conductivity of GNRs (with model size of 4 nm × 15 nm) under the shear strain. Our studies show that the thermal conductivity of GNRs is not sensitive to the shear strain, and the thermal conductivity decreases only 12-16\% before the pristine structure is broken. Furthermore, the phonon frequency and the change of the micro-structure of GNRs, such as band angel and bond length, are analyzed to explore the tendency of thermal conductivity. The results show that the main influence of shear strain is on the in-plane phonon density of states (PDOS), whose G band (higher frequency peaks) moved to the low frequency, thus the thermal conductivity is decreased. The unique thermal properties of GNRs under shear strains suggest their great potentials for graphene nanodevices and great potentials in the thermal managements and thermoelectric applications.}, subject = {W{\"a}rmeleitf{\"a}higkeit}, language = {en} } @article{ZhaoLuRabczuk, author = {Zhao, Jiyun and Lu, Lixin and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {The tensile and shear failure behavior dependence on chain length and temperature in amorphous polymers}, series = {Computational Materials Science}, journal = {Computational Materials Science}, pages = {567 -- 572}, abstract = {The tensile and shear failure behavior dependence on chain length and temperature in amorphous polymers}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{FathiSajadzadehMohammadiSheshkaletal., author = {Fathi, Sadegh and Sajadzadeh, Hassan and Mohammadi Sheshkal, Faezeh and Aram, Farshid and Pinter, Gergo and Felde, Imre and Mosavi, Amir}, title = {The Role of Urban Morphology Design on Enhancing Physical Activity and Public Health}, series = {International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health}, volume = {2020}, journal = {International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health}, number = {Volume 17, Issue 7, 2359}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/ijerph17072359}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200402-41225}, pages = {29}, abstract = {Along with environmental pollution, urban planning has been connected to public health.

The aim of this study was to promote physical activity in the main structure of the city via urban design in a way that the main form and morphology of the city can encourage citizens to move around and have physical activity within the city. Functional, physical, cultural-social, and perceptual-visual features are regarded as the most important and effective criteria in increasing physical activities in urban spaces, based on literature review. The environmental quality of urban spaces and their role in the physical activities of citizens in urban spaces were assessed by using the questionnaire tool and analytical network process (ANP) of structural equation modeling. Further, the space syntax method was utilized to evaluate the role of the spatial integration of urban spaces on improving physical activities. Based on the results, consideration of functional diversity, spatial flexibility and integration, security, and the aesthetic and visual quality of urban spaces plays an important role in improving the physical health of citizens in urban spaces. Further, more physical activities, including motivation for walking and the sense of public health and happiness, were observed in the streets having higher linkage and space syntax indexes with their surrounding texture.}, subject = {Morphologie}, language = {en} } @article{BenZhaoZhangetal., author = {Ben, S. and Zhao, Jun-Hua and Zhang, Yancheng and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {The interface strength and debonding for composite structures: review and recent developments}, series = {Composite Structures}, journal = {Composite Structures}, abstract = {The interface strength and debonding for composite structures: review and recent developments}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{AreiasRabczukBarbosa, author = {Areias, Pedro and Rabczuk, Timon and Barbosa, J.I.}, title = {The extended unsymmetric frontal solution for multiple-point constraints}, series = {Engineering Computations}, journal = {Engineering Computations}, abstract = {The extended unsymmetric frontal solution for multiple-point constraints}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{IşıkBueyueksaracLeventEkincietal., author = {I{\c{s}}{\i}k, Ercan and B{\"u}y{\"u}ksara{\c{c}}, Ayd{\i}n and Levent Ekinci, Yunus and Ayd{\i}n, Mehmet Cihan and Harirchian, Ehsan}, title = {The Effect of Site-Specific Design Spectrum on Earthquake-Building Parameters: A Case Study from the Marmara Region (NW Turkey)}, series = {Applied Sciences}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Applied Sciences}, number = {Volume 10, issue 20, article 7247}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/app10207247}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20201022-42758}, pages = {23}, abstract = {The Marmara Region (NW Turkey) has experienced significant earthquakes (M > 7.0) to date.

Additionally, the differences between the previous and updated regulations of the country were investigated. Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and Peak Ground Velocity (PGV) were obtained for each province by using earthquake ground motion levels with 2\%, 10\%, 50\%, and 68\% probability of exceedance in 50-year periods. The PGA values in the region range from 0.16 to 0.7 g for earthquakes with a return period of 475 years.

Static adaptive pushover analyses were performed for the sample reinforced-concrete building using each province's design spectrum. The variations in the earthquake and structural parameters were investigated according to different geographical locations.

The application of this approach to water management, environmental management and cane supply management is outlined, where the literature indicates that the application of extreme learning machine (ELM) has never been explored in this realm. Consequently, the leading objective of the current research was set to filling this gap by applying ELM to launch swift and accurate model for crop production data-driven. The key learning has been the need for innovation both in the technical aspects of system function underpinned by modelling of sugarcane growth. Therefore, the current study is an attempt to establish an integrate model using ELM to predict the concluding growth amount of sugarcane. Prediction results were evaluated and further compared with artificial neural network (ANN) and genetic programming models. Accuracy of the ELM model is calculated using the statistics indicators of Root Means Square Error (RMSE), Pearson Coefficient (r), and Coefficient of Determination (R2) with promising results of 0.8, 0.47, and 0.89, respectively.

For this purpose, 103 synoptic stations with at least 30 years of data were utilized.

Results indicate the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), NAO, and PDO have the most impact on seasonal precipitation, respectively. Additionally, these indices have the highest impact on the precipitation in winter, autumn, spring, and summer, respectively. SOI has a diverse impact on winter precipitation compared to the PDO and NAO, while in the other seasons, each index has its special impact on seasonal precipitation. Generally, all indices in different phases may decrease the seasonal precipitation up to 100\%.

In this regard, the current research aims at evaluating the performance of two data-driven techniques, namely multilayer perceptron (MLP) and gene expression programming (GEP), for predicting the solubility of carbon dioxide (CO2) in ionic liquids (ILs) as the function of pressure, temperature, and four thermodynamical parameters of the ionic liquid. To develop the above techniques, 744 experimental data points derived from the literature including 13 ILs were used (80\% of the points for training and 20\% for validation). Two backpropagation-based methods, namely Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) and Bayesian Regularization (BR), were applied to optimize the MLP algorithm. Various statistical and graphical assessments were applied to check the credibility of the developed techniques. The results were then compared with those calculated using Peng-Robinson (PR) or Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) equations of state (EoS). The highest coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.9965) and the lowest root mean square error (RMSE = 0.0116) were recorded for the MLP-LMA model on the full dataset (with a negligible difference to the MLP-BR model). The comparison of results from this model with the vastly applied thermodynamic equation of state models revealed slightly better performance, but the EoS approaches also performed well with R2 from 0.984 up to 0.996. Lastly, the newly established correlation based on the GEP model exhibited very satisfactory results with overall values of R2 = 0.9896 and RMSE = 0.0201.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @article{ThumserBergmannVormwald, author = {Thumser, Rayk and Bergmann, Joachim W. and Vormwald, Michael}, title = {Residual stress fields and fatigue analysis of autofrettaged parts}, series = {International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping}, journal = {International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping}, pages = {113 -- 117}, abstract = {Residual stress fields and fatigue analysis of autofrettaged parts}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{BeexKerfridenRabczuketal., author = {Beex, L.A.A. and Kerfriden, Pierre and Rabczuk, Timon and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain}, title = {Quasicontinuum-based multiscale approaches for plate-like beam lattices experiencing in-plane and out-of-plane deformation}, series = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, journal = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, abstract = {Quasicontinuum-based multiscale approaches for plate-like beam lattices experiencing in-plane and out-of-plane deformation}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{ZhangWeiZhaoetal., author = {Zhang, Yancheng and Wei, Ning and Zhao, Jun-Hua and Gong, Yadong and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Quasi-analytical solution for the stable system of the multi-layer folded graphene wrinkles}, series = {Journal of Applied Physics}, journal = {Journal of Applied Physics}, abstract = {Quasi-analytical solution for the stable system of the multi-layer folded graphene wrinkles}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{MostBucher, author = {Most, Thomas and Bucher, Christian}, title = {Probabilistic analysis of concrete cracking using neural networks and random fields}, series = {Probabilistic Engineering Mechanics}, journal = {Probabilistic Engineering Mechanics}, pages = {219 -- 229}, abstract = {Probabilistic analysis of concrete cracking using neural networks and random fields}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{MousaviSteinkeJuniorTeixeiraetal., author = {Mousavi, Seyed Nasrollah and Steinke J{\´u}nior, Renato and Teixeira, Eder Daniel and Bocchiola, Daniele and Nabipour, Narjes and Mosavi, Amir and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin}, title = {Predictive Modeling the Free Hydraulic Jumps Pressure through Advanced Statistical Methods}, series = {Mathematics}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Mathematics}, number = {Volume 8, Issue 3, 323}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/math8030323}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200402-41140}, pages = {16}, abstract = {Pressure fluctuations beneath hydraulic jumps potentially endanger the stability of stilling basins. This paper deals with the mathematical modeling of the results of laboratory-scale experiments to estimate the extreme pressures. Experiments were carried out on a smooth stilling basin underneath free hydraulic jumps downstream of an Ogee spillway. From the probability distribution of measured instantaneous pressures, pressures with different probabilities could be determined. It was verified that maximum pressure fluctuations, and the negative pressures, are located at the positions near the spillway toe. Also, minimum pressure fluctuations are located at the downstream of hydraulic jumps. It was possible to assess the cumulative curves of pressure data related to the characteristic points along the basin, and different Froude numbers. To benchmark the results, the dimensionless forms of statistical parameters include mean pressures (P*m), the standard deviations of pressure fluctuations (σ*X), pressures with different non-exceedance probabilities (P*k\%), and the statistical coefficient of the probability distribution (Nk\%) were assessed. It was found that an existing method can be used to interpret the present data, and pressure distribution in similar conditions, by using a new second-order fractional relationships for σ*X, and Nk\%.

TiO2-Al2O3/water in the role of an innovative type of nanofluid was synthesized by the sol-gel method. The results indicated that 1.5 vol.\% of nanofluids enhanced the thermal conductivity by up to 25\%. It was shown that the heat transfer coefficient was linearly augmented with increasing nanoparticle concentration, but its variation with temperature was nonlinear. It should be noted that the increase in concentration may cause the particles to agglomerate, and then the thermal conductivity is reduced. The increase in temperature also increases the thermal conductivity, due to an increase in the Brownian motion and collision of particles. In this research, for the sake of predicting the thermal conductivity of TiO2-Al2O3/water nanofluid based on volumetric concentration and temperature functions, an artificial neural network is implemented. In this way, for predicting thermal conductivity, SOM (self-organizing map) and BP-LM (Back Propagation-Levenberq-Marquardt) algorithms were used. Based on the results obtained, these algorithms can be considered as an exceptional tool for predicting thermal conductivity. Additionally, the correlation coefficient values were equal to 0.938 and 0.98 when implementing the SOM and BP-LM algorithms, respectively, which is highly acceptable.

Nonetheless, Li-ion batteries suffer from temperature rises which sometimes lead to operational damages or may even cause fire. An appropriate solution to control the temperature changes during the operation of Li-ion batteries is to embed batteries inside a paraffin matrix to absorb and dissipate heat. In the present work, we aimed to investigate the possibility of making paraffin nanocomposites for better heat management of a Li-ion battery pack. To fulfill this aim, heat generation during a battery charging/discharging cycles was simulated using Newman's well established electrochemical pseudo-2D model. We couple this model to a 3D heat transfer model to predict the temperature evolution during the battery operation. In the later model, we considered different paraffin nanocomposites structures made by the addition of graphene, carbon nanotubes, and fullerene by assuming the same thermal conductivity for all fillers. This way, our results mainly correlate with the geometry of the fillers. Our results assess the degree of enhancement in heat dissipation of Li-ion batteries through the use of paraffin nanocomposites.

For this purpose, 13 independent variables affecting GES in the study area, namely, altitude, slope, aspect, plan curvature, profile curvature, drainage density, distance from a river, land use, soil, lithology, rainfall, stream power index (SPI), and topographic wetness index (TWI), were prepared.

The results indicate that the area under the curve (AUC) value from receiver operating characteristic (ROC) considering the testing datasets of PSO-DLNN is 0.89, which indicates superb accuracy.

The nonlocal governing equations are expressed as an integral form on support and dual-support. The first example shows that the nonlocal elasticity has the same form as dual-horizon non-ordinary state-based peridynamics. The derivation is simple and general and it can convert efficiently many local physical models into their corresponding nonlocal forms.

Results for three different structures are compared to examine the most critical factors in the perforation and resistance force during the impact. To analyze the perforation and impact resistance, kinetic energy and displacement time history of the projectile as well as perforation resistance force of the projectile are investigated. Interestingly, although the elasticity module and tensile strength of the graphene are by almost five times higher than those of MoS2, the results demonstrate that 1T and 2H-MoS2 phases are more resistive to the impact loading and perforation than graphene. For the MoS2nanosheets, we realize that the 2H phase is more resistant to impact loading than the 1T counterpart. Our reactive molecular dynamics results highlight that in addition to the strength and toughness, atomic structure is another crucial factor that can contribute substantially to impact resistance of 2D materials.

The length, the core and skin thicknesses are the design variables of Case 1. For Case 2, the objective functions are the fabrication cost, the beam weight and the end deflection of the sandwich structures.

The purpose of this investigation was to boost toughness and to reduce the production cost of the FFF-printed tensile test samples with the desired part thickness. To remove the need for numerous and idle printing samples, the response surface method (RSM) was used. Statistical analysis was performed to deal with this concern by considering extruder temperature (ET), infill percentage (IP), and layer thickness (LT) as controlled factors. The artificial intelligence method of artificial neural network (ANN) and ANN-genetic algorithm (ANN-GA) were further developed to estimate the toughness, part thickness, and production-cost-dependent variables. Results were evaluated by correlation coefficient and RMSE values.

Meteorological data including PE, temperature (T), relative humidity (RH), wind speed (W), and sunny hours (S) collected from 2011 through 2017. The accuracy of the studied methods was determined using the statistical indices of Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), correlation coefficient (R) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE). Furthermore, the Taylor charts utilized for evaluating the accuracy of the mentioned models. The results of this study showed that at Gonbad-e Kavus, Gorgan and Bandar Torkman stations, GPR with RMSE of 1.521 mm/day, 1.244 mm/day, and 1.254 mm/day, KNN with RMSE of 1.991 mm/day, 1.775 mm/day, and 1.577 mm/day, RF with RMSE of 1.614 mm/day, 1.337 mm/day, and 1.316 mm/day, and SVR with RMSE of 1.55 mm/day, 1.262 mm/day, and 1.275 mm/day had more appropriate performances in estimating PE values.

This work develops a vibration-based methodology for determining modal information of three-dimensional space truss structures. The method uses a relatively complex space truss structure for its verification. Numerical modelling of the system gives modal information about the expected vibration behaviour. The identification process involves closely spaced modes that are characterised by local and global vibration mechanisms. To distinguish between local and global vibrations of the system, modal strain energies are used as an indicator. The experimental validation, which incorporated a modal analysis employing the stochastic subspace identification method, has confirmed that considering relatively high model orders is required to identify specific mode shapes. Especially in the case of the determination of local deformation modes of space truss members, higher model orders have to be taken into account than in the modal identification of most other types of structures.}, subject = {Fachwerkbau}, language = {en} } @article{HaefnerEckardtLutheretal., author = {H{\"a}fner, Stefan and Eckardt, Stefan and Luther, Torsten and K{\"o}nke, Carsten}, title = {Mesoscale modeling of concrete: Geometry and numerics}, series = {Computers and Structures}, journal = {Computers and Structures}, pages = {450 -- 461}, abstract = {Mesoscale modeling of concrete: Geometry and numerics}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{ZhaoWeiFanetal., author = {Zhao, Jun-Hua and Wei, Ning and Fan, Z. and Jiang, Jin-Wu and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Mechanical properties of three types of carbon allotropes}, series = {Nanotechnology}, journal = {Nanotechnology}, abstract = {Mechanical properties of three types of carbon allotropes}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{MortazaviCunibertiRabczuk, author = {Mortazavi, Bohayra and Cuniberti, G. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of graphitic carbon nitride: A molecular dynamics study}, series = {Computational Materials Science}, journal = {Computational Materials Science}, pages = {285 -- 289}, abstract = {Mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of graphitic carbon nitride: A molecular dynamics study}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{JiangRabczuk, author = {Jiang, Jin-Wu and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Mechanical Oscillation of Kinked Silicon Nanowires: a Natural Nanoscale Spring}, series = {Applied Physics Letters}, journal = {Applied Physics Letters}, abstract = {Mechanical Oscillation of Kinked Silicon Nanowires: a Natural Nanoscale Spring}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{MosaviShokriMansoretal., author = {Mosavi, Amir Hosein and Shokri, Manouchehr and Mansor, Zulkefli and Qasem, Sultan Noman and Band, Shahab S. and Mohammadzadeh, Ardashir}, title = {Machine Learning for Modeling the Singular Multi-Pantograph Equations}, series = {Entropy}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Entropy}, number = {volume 22, issue 9, article 1041}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/e22091041}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210122-43436}, pages = {1 -- 18}, abstract = {In this study, a new approach to basis of intelligent systems and machine learning algorithms is introduced for solving singular multi-pantograph differential equations (SMDEs).
