Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling of Drying Characteristics of Chilies in a Rotating Fluidized Bed TechniqueKittichai Triratanasirichai, Watcharin Dongbang, Worachest PirompugdProblem statements: The present study investigates experimentally the thin layer drying of chilies in the Rotating Fluidized Bed (RFB) technique and its mathematical modeling. Approach: The layer’s height was fixed at 4±0.5 cm. In addition, the drying air velocity and the centrifugal acceleration ratio were fixed at 2 m sec-1 and G = 2.5 (106 rpm), respectively. With 6 data … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 6,970 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Fast Hybrid Algorithm Approach for the Exact String Matching Problem Via Berry Ravindran and Alpha Skip Search AlgorithmsAbdulwahab Ali AlmazroiProblem statement: String matching algorithm had been an essential means for searching biological sequence database. With the constant expansion in scientific data such as DNA and Protein; the development of enhanced algorithms have even become more critical as the major concern had always been how to raise the performances of these search algorithms to meet challenges of scientific information. Approach: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Noises on the Analysis of Fundamental Frequency Contours for Thai SpeechSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In speech communication, noises from surrounding environments affect the communication quality with various aspects. The received speech quality should be analyzed to see how the important noises reduce the speech quality so that we can eliminate them in an appropriate way. Approach: This study presents a study on the analysis of the noise effects on Thai speech. Four … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Power Analysis of Precomputation Based Content Addressable MemoryM. Arun, A. KrishnanProblem statement: In this study we discus about Signature Detection Technique (SDT) used in Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS). Design of SDT using Content Addressable Memory (CAM) is discussed. Approach: Two novel architectures, XOR and ones count based Pre computation CAM architectures are proposed and implemented in third party back end tool with 0.18 mm technology, power consumptions are compared. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Fast Hybrid Algorithm for the Exact String Matching ProblemAbdulwahab Ali Al-mazroi, Nur’Aini Abdul RashidProblem statement: Due to huge amount and complicated nature of data being generated recently, the usage of one algorithm for string searching was not sufficient to ensure faster search and matching of patterns. So there is the urgent need to integrate two or more algorithms to form a hybrid algorithm (called BRSS) to ensure speedy results. Approach: This study proposes … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContrasting Three Popular Explanations for the Muller-Lyer IllusionMichael R. WoloszynProblem statement: Using the method of adjustment, participants compared the line lengths of ‘dumbbell’ and ‘spectacle’ versions of Muller-Lyer (circles and ovals at the endpoints in place of arrowheads). Approach: Three popular competing explanations for the illusion (conflicting cues, misapplied size constancy scaling and confusion hypothesis) make differing predictions concerning the pattern of change in illusion strength when the bounding … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 22,797 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrivate Giving Crowding Government Funding in Public Higher EducationG. Thomas SavProblem statement: Private giving and government funding are critical revenue sources for public colleges and universities. If increased private giving reduces government funding, then that type and extent of crowding out carries important managerial and public policy implications. Approach: The study used a government funding reaction function and an instrumental variable approach to empirically estimate the potential for crowding out. … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPre-Feasibility Study of Hybrid Hydrogen Based Energy Systems for Coastal Residential ApplicationsMohd Zamri Ibrahim, Roziah Zailan, Marzuki Ismail, Abdul Majeed MuzathikProblem statement: The purpose of this study is to design a renewable energy hydrogen based power system to provide electricity to a coastal residential area in east coast area (Kuala Terengganu) of Malaysia. Approach: The selected case study represents a power demand of 20 kWh day-1. The autonomous system used in this study is diesel generator, wind and photovoltaic hybrid … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuarter-Sweep Projected Modified Gauss-Seidel Algorithm Applied to Linear Complementarity ProblemW. S. Koh, J. Sulaiman, R. MailProblem statement: Modified Gauss-Seidel (MGS) was developed in order to improve the convergence rate of classical iterative method in solving linear system. In solving linear system iteratively, it takes longer time when many computational points involved. It is known that by applying quarter-sweep iteration scheme, it can decrease the computational operations without altering the accuracy. In this study, we investigated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Control Technique Applied in Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag MitigationRosli Omar, Nasrudin Abd Rahim, Marizan SulaimanThe Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) was a power electronics device that was able to compensate voltage sags on critical loads dynamically. The DVR consists of VSC, injection transformers, passive filters and energy storage (lead acid battery). By injecting an appropriate voltage, the DVR restores a voltage waveform and ensures constant load voltage. There were so many types of the control … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,141 accessesView PDFCite
