Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Functionality of Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor Compared to that of Foil GaugeBashir Ahmed Tahir, Jalil Ali, Rosly Abdul RahmanTechnology such as Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors are widely accepted in almost all industries. FBG are being investigated for their applicability in other markets such as smart structures. Fiber optic sensors can also be used in many different applications. Fiber optic sensors are available in several types; among them, the Bragg grating sensor is being studied in this research. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDye Removal from Aqueous Solution by using Adsorption on Treated Sugarcane BagasseS. Saiful Azhar, A. Ghaniey Liew, D. Suhardy et al.The use of cheap and ecofriendly adsorbents has been studied as an alternative substitution of activated carbon for the removal dyes from wastewater. Adsorbents prepared from sugarcane baggase-an agro industries waste was successfully used to remove the methyl red from an aqueous solution in a batch reactor. This study investigates the potential use of sugarcane baggase, pretreated with formaldehyde (PCSB) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 9,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalyzing the Electricity Consumption Using Experimental Design TechniqueS. F. Ghaderi, M. A. Azadeh, Sh. BamdadExperimental design technique is a powerful tool that is used in uncertainty cases, when a great amount of data is available. In this paper, the effects of different factors on the determination of electricity consumption are analyzed. This analysis is based on experimental design technique. The implementation of the proposed technique is shown applying electricity consumption in Iran. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEclecticism Beyond Orthodoxies: African Social Science Research in the Fight Against HIV/AIDSAmbe-Uva T. NomThis study examines the importance of social science research on HIV/AIDS in Africa. There is a dearth of social science research on HIV/AIDS epidemic in Africa as available literature focus essentially on biomedical and epidemiological aspect of HIV/AIDS research and behavioral changes. In Africa however, efforts at preventing and mitigating the impact of HIV/AIDS epidemic will have to consider the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,970 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Ultimate Ruin Probabilities under Interest ForceJuma Kasozi, Jostein PaulsenThis work addresses the issue of ruin of an insurer whose portfolio is exposed to insurance risk arising from the classical surplus process. Availability of a positive interest rate in the financial world forces the insurer to invest into a risk free asset. We derive a linear Volterra integral equation of the second kind and apply an order four Block-by-block … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,491 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCreating Improved Models of Business Processes Through Statistical Analysis of Customer Orders with Multiple Types of ComplexityRaschid Ijioui, Heike Emmerich, Jürgen Hubert, Frank SchillerTo gain a better understanding of the internal work processes in service-oriented supply chains, it is very important to design models that are able to realistically describe the components of the supply chain. To meet this goal, it is necessary to find suitable statistical distributions of the processing times for the orders passing the chain. In this article we examine … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality Metric Development Framework (qMDF)K. Mustafa, R. A. KhanSeveral object-oriented metrics have been developed and used in conjunction with the quality models to predict the overall quality of software. However, it may not be enough to propose metrics. The fundamental question may be of their validity, utility and reliability. It may be much significant to be sure that these metrics are really useful and for that their construct … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRevisiting Overflow in Integer MultiplicationEyas El-Qawasmeh, Ahmed DalalahInteger multiplication is a very common operation that is executed in many applications. However, some of these applications suffer from the overflow problem caused by the multiply operation of two operands. The overflow occurs whenever the multiplication of any two-integer numbers exceeds the maximum limit available for the result. Many programming languages ignored this problem; therefore, the programmer has to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simple Approach for Building Cooling Load EstimationF. A. Ansari, A. S. Mokhtar, K. A. Abbas, N. M. AdamThe present work is to demonstrate how some very simple problems are made mathematically complex and seemingly tedious due to academic or business compulsions. There are some problems in which mathematical model are developed after making many simplifying assumptions. But, when it comes to solving these models, very sophisticated and complex schemes are applied. For such problems, dual policy does … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSewage Treatment Plant Sludge: A Source of Potential Microorganism for Citric Acid ProductionParveen Jamal, Md. Zahangir Alam, M. Ramlan et al.This research emphasizes on the utilization of Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) sludge, which is an inexpensive and easily available raw material and a good source for growth of microorganisms because it has enough nutrients and trace elements. This can be considered as an alternative cost effective solution for waste management in addition to the production of a value added product … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 8,933 accessesView PDFCite
