Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Heavy Metals in the Surface Sediments of the Main Wadis in the Region of Meknes-MoroccoA. Lammini, A. Dehbi, H. Omari, A. AbdallaouiBecause of their growing demographic and industrial expansion, the urban areas of the city of Meknes are likely to disturb the ecological balance of watercourse. In the present work, we had evaluate the degree of sediment’s contamination by heavy metals (Al, Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb and Zn) in the main wadis of the Meknes region (Boufekrane, Wislane and Toulal) … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,109 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ADVERSE EFFECT OF STEEL PARTICLE CONTAMINANTS ON FATIGUE LIFE OF GREASE LUBRICATED BALL BEARINGSA. Stathis, Th. Costopoulos, D. Koulocheris, K. RaptisThe rating life of ball bearings is reduced when hard particle contaminants are present in the lubricant. Usually, this life reduction is taken into account in the calculation of modified rating life by using the contamination factor through a general characterization of the lubrication conditions. However, the impact of contaminant’s variables such as size, hardness and concentration level has to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2014 · 6,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Deoxyribonucleic Acid Compression Algorithm Using Auto-Regression and Swarm IntelligenceWalid Aly, Basheer Yousif, Bassem ZohdyDNA compression challenge has become a major task for many researchers as a result of exponential increase of produced DNA sequences in gene databases; in this research we attempt to solve the DNA compression challenge by developing a lossless compression algorithm. The proposed algorithm works in horizontal mode using a substitutional-statistical technique which is based on Auto Regression modeling (AR), … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 30 May 2013 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Between Dispersion and Mean Toassess Healthcare Servicee FficiencyRamalingam ShanmugamMotivation for this research work started while helping a hospital administrator to assess whether patient oriented activity duration, X≥0 is reflecting the service’s efficiency? Higher value of the sample mean duration, X implies lesser productivity in the hospital and more healthcare cost. Likewise, larger value of sample dispersion, sx2 in the service durations is an indicator of lesser reliability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2012 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison of the Bayesian and Other Methods for Estimation of Reliability Function for Burr-XII DistributionSafaa Ali Nasir, Nashaat Jaisam Al-AnberProblem statement: The Burr-XII distribution has been widely used especially in the modeling of life time event data. It provides a statistical model which has a wide variety of application in many areas and the main advantage is its ability in the context of life time event among other distributions. The conventional maximum likelihood method is the usual way to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLatent Dirichlet Allocation Model for Raga Identification of Carnatic MusicRajeswari Sridhar, Manasa Subramanian, B. M. Lavanya et al.Problem statement: In this study the Raga of South Indian Carnatic music is determined by constructing a model. Raga is a pre-determined arrangement of notes, which is characterized by an Arohana and Avarohana, which is the ascending and descending arrangement of notes and Raga lakshana. Approach: In this study a Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model is constructed to identify the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 30 Aug 2011 · 7,734 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeural Network in Modeling Malaysian Oil Palm YieldZuhaimy Ismail, Azme KhamisProblem statement: Forecasting of palm oil yield has become an important element in the management of oil palm industry for proper planning and decision making. The importance of yield forecasting has led us to explore modeling of palm oil yield for Malaysia using the most recent development of Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The main issue in yield forecasting is to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 8,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Research Approach to Rebuild Sport FacilitiesGaetano Raiola, Tiziana D’IsantoProblem statement: The game court of team sport, part of Sport Centre of Arturo Collana, was closed after structural accident in 2006 and the local administration is now designing the rebuilding of it. For this reason, it has already allocated economical resource to study a partial reconstruction of it to reutilize actual structure. The problem is how can satisfy the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2011 · 7,306 accessesView PDFCite
