Research on Optimal Design of Pressure Relief Blasting Parameters of Middle Rock Pillar in Near Vertical Coal Seam by Yadi Wang, Shiqi Yu, Hai Rong, Liting Pan

“…Through 9 groups of orthogonal tests, the optimal combination of the three indexes is 6 kg charge, 150 mm hole diameter and 10 m hole row spacing. The practical engineering application results of the combination are tested by downhole transient electromagnetic detection (TEM), and it is found that the pressure relief effect is obvious. …”

A Fixed Point Technique for Set-Valued Contractions with Supportive Applications by Hasanen A. Hammad, Manuel De la Sen

“…In this manuscript, exciting fixed point results for a pair of multivalued mappings justifying rational Gupta-Saxena type Ω-contractions in the setting of extended b-metric-like spaces are established. The theoretical results have also been strengthened by some nontrivial examples. …”

Les inégalités d’accès aux ressources urbaines dans les franges périphériques de Belo Horizonte (Brésil) : quelles évolutions ? by Eugênia Viana Cerqueira

“…This paper aims at evaluating inequalities in access to urban resources the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte in the light of the recent socio-spatial evolutions of the peripheral spaces. First, the analysis of resources relative density helps identifying their spatial distribution in the MRBH. …”

Common Fixed Points of Multistep Noor Iterations with Errors for a Finite Family of Generalized Asymptotically Quasi-Nonexpansive Mappings by S. Imnang, S. Suantai

“…We introduce a general iteration scheme for a finite family of generalized asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces. The new iterative scheme includes the multistep Noor iterations with errors, modified Mann and Ishikawa iterations, three-step iterative scheme of Xu and Noor, and Khan and Takahashi scheme as special cases. …”

Weak Convergence Theorems for Strictly Pseudocontractive Mappings and Generalized Mixed Equilibrium Problems by Jong Soo Jung

“…We introduce a new iterative method for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a strictly pseudocontractive mapping, the set of solutions of a generalized mixed equilibrium problem, and the set of solutions of a variational inequality problem for an inverse-strongly-monotone mapping in Hilbert spaces and then show that the sequence generated by the proposed iterative scheme converges weakly to a common element of the above three sets under suitable control conditions. …”
