Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordComplexity in Human Perception of Brightness: A Historical Review on the Evolution of the Philosophy of Visual PerceptionKuntal Ghosh, Kamales BhaumikProblem statement: The “eye-brain” complex, which contributes maximally to visual perception, is no doubt a very interesting object for complexity study. In this review we shall try to present some of its aspects in perceiving brightness. It is a well-known fact that the perceived brightness of any surface depends on the brightness of the surfaces that surround it, a phenomenon … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMATHEMATICAL MODELING AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THIN LAYER HALOGEN DRYER OF STRAWBERRY AND STUDY IT’S EFFECT ON ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITYAsaad Rehman Saeed Al-Hilphy, Ali Khudhair Jaber AlRikabiThe halogen drying characteristics of strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch) slices were investigated. Drying experiments were carried out a three different drying temperatures (60, 70 and 80°C). The effect of drying temperature on the drying rate, drying coefficient, efficiency, effective diffusivity of the strawberry and antioxidant activity were evaluated. The best model for describing the halogen drying process was chosen by … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Sep 2013 · 7,367 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModeling Tourist Arrivals Using Time Series Analysis: Evidence From AustraliaGurudeo AnandTularam, Victor Siew Howe Wong, Seyed AbdelhamidShobeiriNejadAustralian tourism has a logistic trend as Butler’s model shows. The stagnation has not been reached so opportunities exist to increase tourism. The logistic model predicts 7.2 million tourists in 2015 but time series models of ARIMA and VAR improve the prediction and explain the data. The ARIMA (2, 2, 2) fits well while the VAR lead to Granger causalities … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 10 Sep 2012 · 7,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGroundwater Resources Management in Various Scenarios Using Numerical ModelS. Askari Marnani, M. Chitsazan, Y. Mirzaei, B. JahandidehProblem statement: Iran is an arid country and only small percent of its water demand is met by rainfall. At present, about 55% of Iran's water being supplied by aquifers and 45% from surface water. Population growth, joint with economic development and rapid growth in industry and farming, has caused a vast increase in demand for water in Iran. But … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 13,769 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMathematical Model of Double Pass Photovoltaic Thermal Air Collector with FinsEbrahim M. Ali Alfegi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Yusof Hj Othman, Baharudin Bin YatimProblem statement: The efficiency of photovoltaic cells is generally temperature dependent (efficiency decrease when the temperature of the photovoltaic cells increase). This problem can be solved by cooling the solar cells during operation and operated at low temperature. Approach: This study presented a numerical model of double pass Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) solar air collector with fins attached to the back … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStudy of the Drying Kinetics of Lemon GrassMustafa Ibrahim, K. Sopian, W. R.W. DaudProblem statement: The thin- layer drying experiments were conducted to examine the effect of drying air temperature and humidity on the drying kinetics. Approach: A model to estimate the drying behavior of Lemon grass was developed). Results: Four different thin-layer drying models were compared with respect to their coefficient of determination (R2), Mean Bias Error (MBE) and Root Mean Square … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,432 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe 2D Eulerian Approach of Entrained Flow and Temperature in a Biomass Stratified Downdraft GasifierA. Rogel, Jasni AguillónThis paper describes a “1-D+2-D” numerical model used to simulate the gasification of pine wood pellets in a stratified downdraft gasifier whereby Eulerian conservation equations are solved for particle and gas phase components, velocities and specific enthalpies. The model takes into account the biomass particle process such as heating up, drying, primary pyrolysis of biomass, secondary pyrolysis of tar, homogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
