In this study, we consider high-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations with the initial and boundary conditions. These kinds of differential equations are essential tools for modelling problems in physics, biology, neurology, engineering, ecology, economy, astrophysics, physiology and so forth. Each of the mentioned problems are described by one of the following equations with the specific physical conditions: Riccati, Duffing, Emden-Fowler, Lane Emden type equations. We seek the approximate solution of these special differential equations by means of a operational matrix technique, called the Laguerre collocation method. The proposed method is based on the Laguerre series expansion and the collocation points. By using the method, the mentioned special differential equations together with conditions are transformed into a matrix form which corresponds to a system of nonlinear algebraic equations with unknown Laguerre coefficients, and thereby the problem is approximately solved in terms of Laguerre polynomials. In addition, some numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method and the obtained results are compared with the existing results in literature.

In this study, we consider some nonlinear partial integro-differential equations. Most of these equations are used as mathematical models in many problems of physics, biology, chemistry, engineering, and in other areas. Our main purpose is to propose a new numerical method based on the Laguerre and Taylor polynomials, called matrix collocation method, for the numerical solution of the mentioned nonlinear equations under the initial or boundary conditions. To show the effectiveness of this approach, some examples along with error estimations are illustrated by tables and figures.

In this study, we develop a novel matrix collocation method based on the Laguerre polynomials to find the approximate solutions of some parabolic delay differential equations with integral terms subject to appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The method reduces the solution of the mentioned equations to the solution of a matrix equation which corresponds to system of algebraic equations with unknown Laguerre coefficients. Besides, the error analysis together with numerical results are performed to illustrate the efficiency of our method computationally.

Porous Silicon Based Sensor for Organic Vapors

EN
Porous silicon (PS) has been an attractive material for enhancing optical properties of silicon. Its large surface area for sensor applications and compatibility with silicon-based technologies has been a driving force for further technology development. In this study, ability of PS to sense at room temperature organic vapors such as acetone, trichloroethylene and hexane, which are harmful to human health, has been investigated. Electrical (DC) and photo-luminescence (PL) measurements in a controlled atmosphere (nitrogen gas and an organic vapor mix) were performed to test the sensor response towards the organic vapors. It was found that PS surface is very sensitive against these vapors. The experimental results also suggested that PS can be used as a new electro-optical material to sense harmful vapors.
