Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlane Versus Elastic Wave AVO Anisotropic Synthetic Modeling in Derby Field, Southeastern Niger DeltaChukwuemeka Ngozi Ehirim, Nnamdi Ogbonna ChikezieAVO based Zoeppritz’s plane wave and elastic spherical wave anisotropic synthetic modelling have been investigated in Derby field, Southeastern Niger delta. The objective of the study is to investigate the influence of anisotropy on plane and elastic wave AVO synthetics modeling over shale-gas sand horizons in the field. Well log data was check shot corrected and correlated with pre-stack data … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 6 May 2017 · 7,896 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA new Framework of Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) Based on Quantitative and Qualitative DataRachid Belhaj, Mohamed TkiouatStrategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) is a new concept followed especially in private sector; it is an approach to managing human resource that supports long-term business goals, it tries to enhance the management of HR to a strategic level through human capital. The purpose of this paper is to shed light on the main concepts used in the strategic human … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 14 Feb 2017 · 10,222 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Market Orientation on Business Performance in the Multinational Service IndustriesMartin Owusu Ansah, Richard ChinomonaThe paper examined the extent of market orientation on business performance in the multinational service industries in Ghana. It applied the behavioral viewpoint of market orientation measurement using MKTOR scale as a base in eliciting information from eleven marketing managers through in - depth interview while one hundred and sixty-three marketing managers were also surveyed using structured questionnaires. Structural Equation … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2017 · 8,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison between Different Data Mining Algorithms in Freight Mode ChoiceAmir Samimi, Hesamoddin Razi-Ardakani, Amir NohekhanThis research aims to study application of support vector machine algorithm, artificial neural networks and five different types of decision trees in predicting mode choice of freight transportation. Performance of these models has been compared with log it model which is one the most prevalent statistical models in the field. Effect of factors such as cargo weight, distance, type and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 5 Feb 2017 · 7,623 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvanced XFEM Simulation of Pull-out and Debonding of Steel Bars and FRP-Reinforcements in Concrete BeamsNicola Orlando, Elena BenvenutiAn innovative three-dimensional model is applied to the pull-out of steel bars and the debonding of FRP plates from concrete specimens. The shearing and opening modes at the interface of debonding is fully captured. The model is based on an innovative variant of the regularized eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) developed by the authors. In this method, the displacement discontinuity … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 6 Oct 2016 · 8,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStakeholders Selection Model for Software Requirements ElicitationFares Anwar, Rozilawati RazaliRequirements elicitation is the most critical phase in software requirements engineering. The process is resource intensive, as it concerns with a lot of dedicated stakeholders gathering purposefully to present and stipulate software requirements. The extent of effectiveness of the process is greatly influenced by the suitability of the stakeholders in the process of gathering the requirements. Previous studies indicate that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 7 Jun 2016 · 8,017 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydraulic Flow through Engineering Bentonite-Based Containment BarriersEric Wooi Kee Loh, Devapriya Chitral WijeyesekeraThis paper presents the use of software modelling as a tool to study the impact of hydraulic "resistivity" on the contaminant transport through bentonite-based containment barriers. A sensitivity analysis on the predicted data was carried out by varying the boundary conditions as well as the hydraulic resistance to flow through varying contaminant transport parameters. Accordingly, both advective and diffusive flow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 4 Nov 2015 · 6,703 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWork-Family Enrichment: Its Mediating Role in the Relationships Between Workplace Support Factors and Teachers' Job SatisfactionNg Swee Fung, Aminah Ahmad, Zoharah OmarThe role of work-family enrichment in the relationships between workplace support factors and employee attitudes at work has not been given much attention. This paper aims to examine whether work-family enrichment mediates the relationships between workplace social support, namely supervisor support and co-worker support and job satisfaction. Self-administered questionnaires were employed to collect data from 280 teachers working in Malaysian … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,510 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMODELING ISOSTERIC HEAT OF BANANA FOAM MAT USING NEURAL NETWORK APPROACHPreeda Prakotmak, Hataitep Wongsuwan, Somchart Soponronnarit, Somkiat PrachayawarakornInformation on the adsorption isotherm and the thermodynamic properties can assist in optimizing food processing operations such as drying, packaging and storage in the assessment of the quality of food. In this study, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used for modelling the water activity/Equilibrium Relative Humidity (ERH) of banana foam mat under a range of values of the Experimental … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 13 May 2014 · 6,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractESTIMATING LOSS SEVERITY DISTRIBUTION: CONVOLUTION APPROACHRo J. PakFinancial loss can be classified into two types such as expected loss and unexpected loss. A current definition seeks to separate two losses from a total loss. In this article, however, we redefine a total loss as the sum of expected and unexpended losses; then the distribution of loss can be considered as the convolution of the distributions of both … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 2 May 2014 · 6,896 accessesView PDFCite
