This paper develops a model to identify the role of perspiration in temperature distribution of human skin. The model has been solved by using the energy balance equation on the surface of human skin. The role played by thermal conductance, convection, and heat radiation during heat transfer in human skin has been considered, and the relevant laws such as Fourier law for conduction, Newton’s Law for convection, and Stefan–Boltzmann’s law for radiation have been used in the model. Pennes’ bioheat equation has been employed to estimate the heat flow in the dermal region of skin including subcutaneous tissue.

Wigner-Ville transform or Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) associated with quaternion offset linear canonical transform (QOLCT) was proposed by Bhat and Dar. This work is devoted to the development of the theory proposed by them, which is an emerging tool in the scenario of signal processing. The main contribution of this work is to introduce WVD and ambiguity function (AF) associated with the QOLCT (WVD-QOLCT/AF-QOLCT). First, the definition of the WVD-QOLCT is proposed, and then several important properties such as dilation, nonlinearity, and boundedness are derived. Second, we derived the AF for the proposed transform. A bunch of important properties, including the reconstruction formula associated with the AF, are studied.

The acceptance sampling plan (ASP) is a statistical tool used in industry for quality control to determine the quality of products by selecting a specified number for testing in order to accept or reject the lot. The main objective is to develop a new ASP based on truncated life tests assuming that the lifetime follows the two parameters Quasi Shanker distribution, since this distribution showed its superiority in providing a better model for some applications than the exponential distribution. The ASP steps are carried out to find the minimum sample sizes needed to assert the certain life mean that are calculated under a given customer’s risk. The operating characteristic values of the sampling plan and the producer risk values are obtained. The efficiency of the suggested plans is analyzed based on real data that is fitted to the Quasi Shanker distribution. For various values of the Quasi Shanker distribution parameters, numerical examples are presented for illustrative purposes. The results indicate that the suggested ASP provides smaller sample sizes than other competitors considered in this study. The suggested ASP has been found to provide a substantial sampling economy in terms of reducing the sample. Hence, it is recommended that the ASP can be used in industry and for future research works as double and group ASP.
