      Analytical target cascading for the design of an advanced technology heavy truck 

      Louca, Loucas S.; Kokkolaras, M.; Delagrammatikas, G. J.; Michelena, N. F.; Filipi, Z. S.; Papalambros, P. Y.; Assanis, D. N. (American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2002)
      Analytical target cascading (ATC) is a methodology that can be used during the early development stages of large and complex systems for propagating desirable overall product targets to appropriate individual specifications ...

      Enhanced group analysis and exact solutions of variable coefficient semilinear diffusion equations with a power source 

      Vaneeva, Olena O.; Popovych, R. O.; Sophocleous, Christodoulos (2009)
      A new approach to group classification problems and more general investigations on transformational properties of classes of differential equations is proposed. It is based on mappings between classes of differential ...

      Lie group analysis of two-dimensional variable-coefficient Burgers equation 

      Ivanova, Nataliya M.; Sophocleous, Christodoulos; Tracinà, Rita (2010)
      The modern group analysis of differential equations is used to study a class of two-dimensional variable coefficient Burgers equations. The group classification of this class is performed. Equivalence transformations are ...

      A model accuracy and validation algorithm 

      Sendur, P.; Stein, J. L.; Peng, H.; Louca, Loucas S. (American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2002)
      Dynamic models of physical systems with physically meaningful states and parameters have become increasingly important, for design, control and even procurement decisions. The successful use of models in these contexts ...

      Similarity reductions of the (1 + 3)-dimensional Burgers equation 

      Christou, Marios Andreas; Ivanova, Nataliya M.; Sophocleous, Christodoulos (2009)
      We consider the (1 + 3)-dimensional Burgers equation ut = uxx + uyy + uzz + uux which has considerable interest in mathematical physics. We complete the list of similarity reductions that are obtained from the Lie symmetries ...

      Viscoplastic flow development in a channel with slip along one wall 

      Panaseti, Pandelitsa; Georgiou, Georgios C. (2017)
      The flow development of a Herschel–Bulkley fluid in a horizontal channel is considered assuming that slip occurs only on the upper wall due to slip heterogeneities. Hence, the velocity profile is allowed to be asymmetric ...
