Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating some Reliability Analysis Methodologies in Seismic DesignA. El Ghoulbzouri, A. Khamlichi, F. Lopez Almansa et al.Problem statement: Accounting for uncertainties that were present in geometric and material data of reinforced concrete buildings was performed in this study within the context of performance based seismic engineering design. Approach: Reliability of the expected performance state is assessed by using various methodologies based on finite element nonlinear static pushover analysis and specialized reliability software package. Reliability approaches that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Perturbative Approach in Nonlinear Singularity AnalysisTat-Leung YeeProblem statement: The study is devoted to the “mirror” method which enables one to study the integrability of nonlinear differential equations. Approach: A perturbative extension of the mirror method is introduced. Results: The mirror system and its first perturbation are then utilized to gain insights into certain nonlinear equations possessing negative Fuchs indices, which were poorly understood in the literatures. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2011 · 7,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign For Test Technique for Leakage Power Reduction in Nanoscale Static Random Access MemoryN. M. Sivamangai, GunavathiProblem statement: As technology scales down, the integration density of transistors increases and most of the power is dissipated as leakage. Leakage power reduction is achieved in Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) cells by increasing the source voltage (source biasing) of the SRAM array. Another promising issue in nanoscaled devices is the process parameter variations. Due to these variations, higher … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 15 Jul 2011 · 6,509 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Clustering Based Genetic Algorithm for Solving Complex NP ProblemsR. Sivaraj, T. RavichandranProblem statement: The selection process is a major factor in genetic algorithm which determines the optimality of solution for a complex problem. The selection pressure is the critical step which finds out the best individuals in the entire population for further genetic operators. The proposed algorithm tries to find out the best individuals with reduced selection pressure than standard genetic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSubway Train Braking System: A Fuzzy Based Hardware ApproachMamun Bin Ibne Reaz, Jubayer Jalil, Hafizah Husain, Badariah BaisProblem statement: Automated subway train-braking system require perfection, efficiency and fast response. In order to cope with this concerns, an appropriate algorithm need to be developed which need to be implemented in hardware for faster response. Approach: In this research, the FPGA realization of fuzzy based subway train braking system has been presented on an Alter FLEX10K device to provide … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 7,179 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeighted Centroid Modified Simplex and Linear Constrained Response Surface Optimization Methods for the Xbar-R Chart Variable DeterminationPongchanun LuangpaiboonProblem statement: Although economic Xbar-R chart designs do guarantee the minimal operating cost, they typically have poor levels of statistical performance measures. The obvious limitation of the economic design is that the Type I error rate seems to be very high for many situations and will cause a large number of false alarms. This situation leads to an investigation of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Hybrid Encoding Genetic Algorithm on Pickup and Delivery Traveling Salesman Problem with Traffic ConditionsSupat PatvichaichodProblem statement: This study deals with the pickup and delivery traveling salesman problem with traffic conditions (PDTSPTW), an extension of the pickup and delivery traveling salesman problem (PDTSP) where each customer to be served is associated with two quantities of product to be collected and delivered. Almost PDTSP problems uses distance between each point of customers as Euclidean Distance and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 6,781 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDisclosure Factors of Executive Managers Remuneration: A Probit ModelThemistokles Lazarides, Elektra PitoskaProblem statement: The study contributes to the literature that argues that the convergence trend of corporate governance systems is either nominal or hasn’t the impact that the advocates of this theory hypothesize. Approach: The objective of the study was to test this hypothesis the key issue of remuneration had been chosen to illustrate that the differences of corporate governance systems … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2010 · 7,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccurate Wavelet Neural Network for Efficient Controlling of an Active Magnetic Bearing SystemYoussef Harkouss, Souhad Mcheik, Roger AchkarProblem statement: The synthesis of a command by the neural network has an excellent advantage over the classical one such as PID. This study presented a fast and accurate Wavelet Neural Network (WNN) approach for efficient controlling of an Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) system. Approach: The proposed approach combined neural network with the wavelet theory. Wavelet theory may be exploited … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 9 Nov 2010 · 15,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterpolating Operators for MultiapproximationEman Samir BhayaProblem statement: There are no simple definitions of operators for best multiapproximation and best one sided multiapproximation which work for any measurable function in Lp for, p>0. This study investigated operators that are good for best multiapproximation and best one sided multiapproximation. Approach: We first introduced some direct results related to the approximation problem of continuous functions by Hermit-Fejer interpolation … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,659 accessesView PDFCite
