Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Non-Residential Building Energy ConsumptionYongzhi Gao, Weijun Gao, Ji Xuan, Yutaka TonookaProblem statement: China’s energy consumption is increasing with a high-speed in recent years. Especially since building energy consumption caught pubic eyes and became a crucial problem of society, it forced the public to make estimation in order to reduce energy consumption efficiently. However, it is very difficult to analyze a non-residential building accurately due to China’s statistical collection system and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two-Dimensional Wave Prediction Model Along the Best Track of Typhoon Linda 1997Worachat Wannawong, Usa W. Humphries, Prungchan Wongwises et al.Problem statement: A two-dimensional wave prediction model along the best track of Typhoon Linda 1997 was interested to study the impact of typhoon wind-wave characteristics. The dynamical wave model with deep water condition was used to predict the wave height (Hs) of Typhoon Linda before and after entering into the Gulf of Thailand (GoT). Approach: The standard one-way nested grid … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Coupled Mathematical Model for a Temperature Dependant Blood Perfusion in Heterogeneous Biological Tissues during Microwave HeatingE. A. Adebile, B. N. Akintewe, K. M. OwolabiProblem statement: The temperature variation in heterogeneous three layered biological tissues was investigated. Approach: The blood perfusion was considered to be temperature dependent. The heating modalities were taking to go on simultaneously in each of the regions on the one hand and also sequentially in another arrangement. The asymptotic series solution was modified for the three layers and the matching … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,576 accessesView PDFCite

KheradmandProblem statement: The Muteh mining district is located in 70 km northeast of Golpaygan city within the Sanandaj-Sirjan metamorphic belt. There are 2 gold mines, 7 gold occurrences and numerous mineral indices in the Muteh gold district. There are few researches on Muteh gold district, but a detailed model is not clear yet. The aim of this study is to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA GA Based Transmission Network Expansion Planning Considering Voltage Level, Network Losses and Number of Bundle LinesS. Jalilzadeh, H. Shayeghi, M. Mahdavi, H. HadadianTransmission Network Expansion Planning (TNEP) was studied considering voltage level, network losses and number of bundle lines using decimal codification based genetic algorithm (DCGA). TNEP determines the characteristic and performance of the future electric power network and directly influences the operation of power system. Up till now, various methods have been presented for the solution of the Static Transmission Network … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,585 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplied Issues of Agritourism Cooperation and Sustainable Endogenous DevelopmentHelen Theodoropoulou, Roido Mitoula, Olga Astara, Panagiotis KaldisThis research aims at examining how an agritourism cooperative and its activities promote endogenous development using local human, natural and technological resources in a sustainable way with other local production activities. Technology allows the agritourism cooperative to effectively use local resources and simultaneously to increase its competitiveness in marketing of products. So, the cooperative becomes more competitive in regional and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,732 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome Fast Methods for Fitting Some One-parameter Spatial ModelsR. J. MartinIt is common in geographic modelling to use a one-parameter spatial model to specify the inverse covariance matrix in terms of I-βW, for some known matrix W. Exact Gaussian maximum likelihood estimation of β requires evaluation of the determinant of the covariance matrix. For large data sets, this evaluation of the determinant can be slow and good approximations can be … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,066 accessesView PDFCite
