We propose a mathematical model of the coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)to investigate the transmission and control mechanism of the disease in the community of Nigeria.Using stability theory of differential equations,the qualitative behavior of model is studied.The pandemic indicator represented by basic reproductive number R0 is obtained from the largest eigenvalue of the next-generation matrix.Local as well as global asymptotic stability conditions for the disease-free and pandemic equilibrium are obtained which determines the conditions to stabilize the exponential spread of the disease.Further,we examined this model by using Atangana–Baleanu fractional derivative operator and existence criteria of solution for the operator is established.We consider the data of reported infection cases from April 1,2020,till April 30,2020,and parameterized the model.We have used one of the reliable and efficient method known as iterative Laplace transform to obtain numerical simulations.The impacts of various biological parameters on transmission dynamics of COVID-19 is examined.These results are based on different values of the fractional parameter and serve as a control parameter to identify the significant strategies for the control of the disease.In the end,the obtained results are demonstrated graphically to justify our theoretical findings.

BHGSO:Binary Hunger Games Search Optimization Algorithm for Feature Selection Problem

In machine learning and data mining,feature selection(FS)is a traditional and complicated optimization problem.Since the run time increases exponentially,FS is treated as an NP-hard problem.The researcher’s effort to build a new FS solution was inspired by the ongoing need for an efficient FS framework and the success rates of swarming outcomes in different optimization scenarios.This paper presents two binary variants of a Hunger Games Search Optimization(HGSO)algorithm based on V-and S-shaped transfer functions within a wrapper FS model for choosing the best features from a large dataset.The proposed technique transforms the continuous HGSO into a binary variant using V-and S-shaped transfer functions(BHGSO-V and BHGSO-S).To validate the accuracy,16 famous UCI datasets are considered and compared with different state-of-the-art metaheuristic binary algorithms.The findings demonstrate that BHGSO-V achieves better performance in terms of the selected number of features,classification accuracy,run time,and fitness values than other state-of-the-art algorithms.The results demonstrate that the BHGSO-V algorithm can reduce dimensionality and choose the most helpful features for classification problems.The proposed BHGSO-V achieves 95%average classification accuracy for most of the datasets,and run time is less than 5 sec.for low and medium dimensional datasets and less than 10 sec for high dimensional datasets.

A New Idea of Fractal-Fractional Derivative with Power Law Kernel for Free Convection Heat Transfer in a Channel Flow between Two Static Upright Parallel Plates

Nowadays some new ideas of fractional derivatives have been used successfully in the present research community to study different types of mathematical models.Amongst them,the significant models of fluids and heat or mass transfer are on priority.Most recently a new idea of fractal-fractional derivative is introduced;however,it is not used for heat transfer in channel flow.In this article,we have studied this new idea of fractal fractional operators with power-law kernel for heat transfer in a fluid flow problem.More exactly,we have considered the free convection heat transfer for a Newtonian fluid.The flow is bounded between two parallel static plates.One of the plates is heated constantly.The proposed problem is modeled with a fractal fractional derivative operator with a power-law kernel and solved via the Laplace transform method to find out the exact solution.The results are graphically analyzed via MathCad-15 software to study the behavior of fractal parameters and fractional parameter.For the influence of temperature and velocity profile,it is observed that the fractional parameter raised the velocity and temperature as compared to the fractal operator.Therefore,a combined approach of fractal fractional explains the memory of the function better than fractional only.

Al_(2)O_(3) andγAl_(2)O_(3) Nanomaterials Based Nanofluid Models with Surface Diffusion:Applications for Thermal Performance in Multiple Engineering Systems and Industries

Thermal transport investigation in colloidal suspensions is taking a significant research direction.The applications of these fluids are found in various industries,engineering,aerodynamics,mechanical engineering and medical sciences etc.A huge amount of thermal transport is essential in the operation of various industrial production processes.It is a fact that conventional liquids have lower thermal transport characteristics as compared to colloidal suspensions.The colloidal suspensions have high thermal performance due to the thermophysical attributes of the nanoparticles and the host liquid.Therefore,researchers focused on the analysis of the heat transport in nanofluids under diverse circumstances.As such,the colloidal analysis of H_(2)O composed byγAl_(2)O_(3)and Al_(2)O_(3)is conducted over an elastic cylinder.The governing flow models ofγAl_(2)O_(3)/H_(2)O and Al_(2)O_(3)/H_(2)O is reduced in the dimensionless form by adopting the described similarity transforms.The colloidal models are handled by implementing the suitable numerical technique and provided the results for the velocity,temperature and local thermal performance rate against the multiple flow parameters.From the presented results,it is shown that the velocity of Al_(2)O_(3)–H_(2)O increases promptly against a high Reynolds number and it decreases for high-volume fraction.The significant contribution of the volumetric fraction is examined for thermal enhancement of nanofluids.The temperature of Al_(2)O_(3)–H_(2)O andγAl_(2)O_(3)–H_(2)O significantly increases against a higherϕ.Most importantly,the analysis shows thatγAl_(2)O_(3)–H_(2)O has a high local thermal performance rate compared to Al_(2)O_(3)–H_(2)O.Therefore,it is concluded thatγAl_(2)O_(3)–H_(2)O is a better heat transfer fluid and is suitable for industrial and technological uses.

.The thermal performance enhances for higher volumetric fraction and
.Further,it is noticed that thermal performance prevailed in(MoS_(2)–SiO_(2))–H_(2)O throughout the analysis.Therefore,(MoS_(2)–SiO_(2))–H_(2)O is better for industrial and engineering uses where high heat transfer is required to accomplished different processes of production.

The present study is focused on the unsteady two-phase flow of blood in a cylindrical region.Blood is taken as a counter-example of Brinkman type fluid containing magnetic(dust)particles.The oscillating pressure gradient has been considered because for blood flow it is necessary to investigate in the form of a diastolic and systolic pressure.The transverse magnetic field has been applied externally to the cylindrical tube to study its impact on both fluids as well as particles.The system of derived governing equations based on Navier Stoke’s,Maxwell and heat equations has been generalized using the well-known Caputo–Fabrizio(C–F)fractional derivative.The considered fractional model has been solved analytically using the joint Laplace and Hankel(L&H)transformations.The effect of various physical parameters such as fractional parameter,Gr,M and
γ on blood and magnetic particles has been shown graphically using the Mathcad software.The fluid behaviour is thinner in fractional order as compared to the classical one.

Heat Transfer in MHD Flow of Maxwell Fluid via Fractional Cattaneo-Friedrich Model:A Finite Difference Approach

The idea of fractional derivatives is applied to several problems of viscoelastic fluid.However,most of these problems(fluid problems),were studied analytically using different integral transform techniques,as most of these problems are linear.The idea of the above fractional derivatives is rarely applied to fluid problems governed by nonlinear partial differential equations.Most importantly,in the nonlinear problems,either the fractional models are developed by artificial replacement of the classical derivatives with fractional derivatives or simple classical problems(without developing the fractional model even using artificial replacement)are solved.These problems were mostly solved for steady-state fluid problems.In the present article,studied unsteady nonlinear non-Newtonian fluid problem(Cattaneo-Friedrich Maxwell(CFM)model)and the fractional model are developed starting from the fractional constitutive equations to the fractional governing equations;in other words,the artificial replacement of the classical derivatives with fractional derivatives is not done,but in details,the fractional problem is modeled from the fractional constitutive equations.More exactly two-dimensional magnetic resistive flow in a porous medium of fractional Maxwell fluid(FMF)over an inclined plate with variable velocity and the temperature is studied.The Caputo time-fractional derivative model(CFM)is used in the governing equations.The proposed model is numerically solved via finite difference method(FDM)along with L1-scheme for discretization.The numerical results are presented in various figures.These results indicated that the fractional parameters significantly affect the temperature and velocity fields.It is noticed that the temperature field increased with an increase in the fractional parameter.Whereas,the effect of fractional parameters is opposite on the velocity field near the plate.However,this trend became like that of the temperature profile,away from the plate.Moreover,the velocity field retarded with strengthening in the magnetic parameter due to enhancement in Lorentz force.However,this effect reverses in the case of the temperature profile.

State-of-Charge Estimation of Lithium-Ion Battery for Electric Vehicles Using Deep Neural Network

It is critical to have precise data about Lithium-ion batteries,such as the State-of-Charge(SoC),to maintain a safe and consistent functioning of battery packs in energy storage systems of electric vehicles.Numerous strategies for estimating battery SoC,such as by including the coulomb counting and Kalman filter,have been established.As a result of the differences in parameter values between each cell,when these methods are applied to highcapacity battery packs,it has difficulties sustaining the prediction accuracy of overall cells.As a result of aging,the variation in the parameters of each cell is higher as more time is spent in operation.It is suggested in this study to establish an SoC estimate model for a Lithium-ion battery by employing an enhanced Deep Neural Network(DNN)approach.This is because the proposed DNN has a substantial hidden layer,which can accurately predict the SoC of an unknown driving cycle during training,making it ideal for SoC estimation.To evaluate the nonlinearities between voltage and current at various SoCs and temperatures,the proposed DNN is applied.Using current and voltage data measured at various temperatures throughout discharge/charge cycles is necessary for training and testing purposes.When the method has been thoroughly trained with the data collected,it is used for additional cells cycle tests to predict their SoC.The simulation has been conducted for two different Li-ion battery datasets.According to the experimental data,the suggested DNN-based SoC estimate approach produces a low mean absolute error and root-mean-square-error values,say less than 5%errors.

IRKO:An Improved Runge-Kutta Optimization Algorithm for Global Optimization Problems

Optimization is a key technique for maximizing or minimizing functions and achieving optimal cost,gains,energy,mass,and so on.In order to solve optimization problems,metaheuristic algorithms are essential.Most of these techniques are influenced by collective knowledge and natural foraging.There is no such thing as the best or worst algorithm;instead,there are more effective algorithms for certain problems.Therefore,in this paper,a new improved variant of a recently proposed metaphorless Runge-Kutta Optimization(RKO)algorithm,called Improved Runge-Kutta Optimization(IRKO)algorithm,is suggested for solving optimization problems.The IRKO is formulated using the basic RKO and local escaping operator to enhance the diversification and intensification capability of the basic RKO version.The performance of the proposed IRKO algorithm is validated on 23 standard benchmark functions and three engineering constrained optimization problems.The outcomes of IRKO are compared with seven state-of-the-art algorithms,including the basic RKO algorithm.Compared to other algorithms,the recommended IRKO algorithm is superior in discovering the optimal results for all selected optimization problems.The runtime of IRKO is less than 0.5 s for most of the 23 benchmark problems and stands first for most of the selected problems,including real-world optimization problems.

The unsteady magnetohydrodynamic(MHD)flow on a horizontal preamble surface with hybrid nanoparticles in the presence of the first order velocity and thermal slip conditions are investigated.Alumina(Al_(2)O_(3))and copper(Cu)are considered as hybrid nanoparticles that have been dispersed in water in order to make hybrid nanofluid(Cu-Al_(2)O_(3)/water).The system of similarity equations is derived from the system of partial differential equations(PDEs)by using variables of similarity,and their solutions are gotten with shooting method in the Maple software.In certain ranges of unsteadiness and magnetic parameters,the presence of dual solutions can be found.Further,it is examined that layer separation is deferred due to the effect of the hybrid nanoparticles.Moreover,the capacity of the thermal enhancement of Cu-Al_(2)O_(3)/water hybrid nanofluid is higher as compared to Al_(2)O_(3)/water based nanofluid and enhancements inCu are caused to rise the fluid temperature in both solutions.In the last,solutions stability analyzes were also carried out and the first solution was found to be stable.
