Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improvement Method for Swell Problem in Sulfate Soils that Stabilized by LimeM. JahanshahiIn this research low plasticity clay (CL) has to be mixed by varying percents of gypsum and after that this mixture would be treated with different amounts of lime, in two methods: regular application and Double application. The swell examinations would be done on these samples; and the influence of sulfates and mixing method on different quantities of swell will … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField and Laboratory Suction- Soil Moisture Relationship of Unsaturated Residual SoilsBujang B.K. Huat, Faisal H. Ali, A. AbdullahSoils located above the groundwater table such as residual soils are generally unsaturated and possess negative pore-water pressures. A soil-water (moisture) characteristic curve (SWCC) that relates the water content of a soil to matric suction is an important relationship for the unsaturated soil mechanics. The SWCC essentially shows the ability of an unsaturated soil to retain water under various matric … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultivariate Option Pricing with Gaussian Mixture Distributions and Mixed CopulasJimbo Henri Claver, Tatanfack Emerson, Shu FelixRecently, it has been reported that the hypothesis proposed by the classical black scholes model to price multivariate options in finance were unrealistic, as such, several other methods have been introduced over the last decades including the copulas methods which uses copulas functions to model the dependence structure of underlying assets. However, the previous work did not take into account … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2023 · 6,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterizing Soil Penetration Resistance of Planted Sago Palm (Metroxylon spp.) Under Mineral Soils EcosystemMohd Effendi Wasli, Nurul Hidayah Che Ali, Roland Yong et al.In-situ soil assessment such as field soil compaction can often be a helpful approach in help determining soil suitability for certain crops. In this study, an assessment was conducted to characterize the Soil Penetration Resistance (SPR) in planted sago palm (Metroxylon spp.) plantation at different growth of rosette and trunking stages under mineral soils ecosystem. SPR in-situ assessment would provide … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2021 · 6,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIrrigation System Using Hyperspectral Data and Machnie Learning Techniques for Smart AgricultureSanthi Balachandran, Sourna Lakshmi, Nithya RajendranWater is the main resource for agriculture. Management of water in agricultural field is a challenging process. To manage the water content in the agricultural field, smart irrigation system has been proposed by using fuzzy based decision support system on Hyperspectral Image benchmark dataset. Hyperspectral images are the process of collected and processed the images from electromagnetic spectrum. Recent studies … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 15 Apr 2020 · 7,691 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLithofacies and Depositional Environment of Volcano-Sedimentary Deposits of Se Mayo Oulo BasinElie Fosso Menkem, David Sebag, Benjamin Ngounou Ngatcha, Alain DurandThe study of volcano-sedimentary deposits of Mangbai in SE Mayo Oulo basin-Cameroon leads to the identification of five major distinct lithofacies types. From the coarset to the finest lithofacies, there are: Gb-clast supported by massive coble and boulder, Gg-granule to massive gravel, Sm-massive sand, Sh-horizontal layered sandstones, Fml-massive laminated claystones. Coarse facies (Gb, Gg, Sm) are cemented with volcanic matrix … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 19 Dec 2013 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeoelectrical Resistivity Imaging and Refraction Seismic Investigations at Sg.Udang, MelakaZeinab Asry, Abdul Rahim Samsudin, Wan Zuhairi Yaacob, Jasni YaakubProblem statement: A Reconnaissance geophysical survey of an area near Sg.Udang, Melaka was conducted using geoelectrical resistivity and seismic refraction methods. The main objective of this study is to determine the depth of bedrock in the study area. The resistivity imaging measurement employing Wenner electrode configuration was carried out using an ABEM SAS 1000 terrameter and electrode selector system ES464. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 13 Jun 2012 · 8,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Monitoring System for Mitigation Planning: The Case of "Bagnaschino" Landslide in Northern ItalyGiuliani Andrea, Bonetto Sabrina, Castagna Sara et al.Problem statement: The Bagnaschino landslide occurred in November 1994 that caused extensive floods and many landslides all over northern Italy. In southern Piedmont, the Casotto River (Cuneo Province) damaged many kilometers of provincial road and the river was dammed by this landslide. The landslide involves an area of about 100 thousands m3, but a good knowledge of the landslide is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHandling the Dependence of Claim Severities with Copula ModelsYulia Resti, Noriszura Ismail, Saiful Hafizah JaamanProblem statement: Several studies have been carried out on the modeling of claim severity data in actuarial literature as well as in insurance practice. Since it is well established that the claim cost distributions generally have positive support and are positively skewed, the regression models of Gamma and Lognormal have been used by practitioners for modeling claim severities. However, the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPresence and Origin of Fluoride in the Complex Terminal Water of Ouargla Basin (Northern Sahara of Algeria)Imed Eddine Nezli, Samia Achour, Mohamed Djidel, Saïd AttalahProblem statement: The underground waters in the oriental regions of the Algerian Sahara, present real chemical quality problems. Their content in fluorides always exceeds the limit of the recommended levels. That is 0.8 mg L-1, according to the maximum temperature in the region. Combined to a high salinity, it affects the health of the population living around the region. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,677 accessesView PDFCite
