Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFacial Features for Template Matching Based Face RecognitionChai Tong Yuen, M. Rizon, Woo San San, Tan Ching SeongProblem statement: Template matching had been a conventional method for object detection especially facial features detection at the early stage of face recognition research. The appearance of moustache and beard had affected the performance of features detection and face recognition system since ages ago. Approach: The proposed algorithm aimed to reduce the effect of beard and moustache for facial features … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 9,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn situ Shear Tests of Soil Samples with Grass Roots in Alpine EnvironmentE. Comino, A. DruettaProblem statement: The presence of vegetation increases the soil burden stability along slopes and reduces soil erosion. Its contribution is due to mechanical (reinforcing soil shear resistance) and hydrologic controls on streambank and superficial landslides. This study presented the results carried out from experimental in situ test focused to study the increased shear resistance of soil blocks due to root-reinforcement. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,259 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison the Proposed Probabilistic-Based Time-History and the Traditional PSHA ApproachA. NicknamThe main objective of this article is to demonstrate the ability of our technique in estimating the probabilistic-based time-history to be used in dynamic analysis of structures. The result of using our technique is compared with that of traditional approach proposed by Cornell (Cornell, 1968), in the form of response spectrum through a case study. Good agreement of the two … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 6,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of Airflow around Vehicle A-pillar Region and Windnoise Generation PredictionM. H. Shojaefard, K. Goudarzi, H. FotouhiFlow separation and reattachment around the vehicle A-pillar region dictates strong pressure fluctuations on the side window surfaces and can also lead to generate aerodynamic noise. The objective of this work is to investigate qualitative flow visualization of airflow behaviour around vehicle A-pillar and its potential to generate windnoise in this region. By means of Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) under … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,335 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Parameters Affecting Warping In Radial Forging ProcessF. Djavanroodi, M. Sabeghi, K. AbriniaRadial forging is a process in which one or two punches move axially causing a radial flow into a die cavity by means of which a flange is formed. During forging, warping, in which the lower face of thin flange rises from the die face may occur. To better understand the effect of parameters affecting the warping in radial forging … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImage Recognition Using Combination of Discrete Multi_Wavelet and Wavenet TransformDr Mikhled AlfaouriFocus of the method was to present image identification and labeling using new combination of dynamic transforms. This method is based on using the combination of the Discrete Multi-wavelet Transform (DMWT) and Wavenet Transform (WN). In this method, the resulting coefficients were computed by the proposed multi-wavelets transform for single-level decomposition. The low pass sub bands of the upper left … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrace Metal Mercury Levels in Residential Homes in KuwaitL. AL-Awadi, A. R. Khan, R. Al-KandariKuwait is an oil rich state on the northeastern corner of Arabian Peninsula and has faced the unprecedented man made environmental disaster in early 1991 of igniting over 600 oil wells those continually burnt for a period of over six months. The use of crude and heavy fuel oil in the power generating facilities has aggravated the pollution due to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing GIS for Retail Planning in Jeddah CityAbdulkader A MuradThe aim of this paper was to identify the possibilities of using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in retail planning field. A spatial database was created for one major retail center called Cornaish center in Jeddah city, Saudi Arabia. The results of the GIS analysis covers three retail planning issues called Proximity to retail center, retail demand characteristics and spatial interaction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-precision Detection of Facial Landmarks to Estimate Head Motions Based on Vision ModelsXiaohong W. Gao, Sergey Anishenko, Dmitry Shaposhnikov et al.A new approach of determination of head movement is presented from the pictures recorded via digital cameras monitoring the scanning processing of PET. Two human vision models of CIECAMs and BMV are applied to segment the face region via skin colour and to detect local facial landmarks respectively. The developed algorithms are evaluated on the pictures (n=12) monitoring a subject’s … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWound Healing Process of Uncomplicated “Rusterholz” Ulcer, Following Treatment by Wooden Block and Hoofgel® in Bovine Hoof: Histopathological AspectsH. Azarabad, I. Nowrouzian, E. Soleymani et al.A broad and very detailed histopathological knowledge on cutaneous wound healing particularly in human skin is available, but few studies have documented this event in bovine claw sole ulcers. It seems the mechanism of wound healing might be basically the same followed by second intention healing which is finished in a period of time by formation of granulation tissue in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
