Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Channel Estimation for Multiuser Underwater Communication SystemsS. Aliesawi, C. C. Tsimenidis, B. S. Sharif, M. JohnstonProblem statement: Multiple Access Interference (MAI) signals and poor estimation of the unknown channel parameters in the presence of limited training sequences are two of the major problems that degrade the systems’ performance. Two synchronous multiuser receivers with Rake reception of Interleave Division Multiple Access (IDMA) and Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) systems, in conjunction with channel estimation, are considered … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 20 Feb 2012 · 7,355 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStability and Ergonomic Design Features of Tractor Mounted Hydraulic Elevator for Coconut HarvestingKishor Purushottamrao Kolhe, Ashok G. Powar, Amit D. Dhakane, Sham H. MankarProblem statement: The most important design criterion of mechanized device was safety; safety comprises both the safety of operator and safety of maintenance personnel. Failures and safety of harvesting platform of Tractor Mounted Hydraulic Elevator (TMHE) powered by tractor PTO was tested by finite element method for the mechanical harvesting of coconut orchards using digital ergonomic hart rate meter. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2011 · 8,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistinguishing Congestion and Technical Inefficiency in Presence Undesirable OutputFaranak Hosseinzadeh Saljooghi, Mohammad Mahallati RayeniProblem statement: This study focuses on problems of congestion and how they might be treated in universities, also investigates a methodology to measure undesirable outputs congestion in addition to inputs congestion, from both theoretical and empirical perspectives. Congestion indicates an economic state where inputs are overly invested. Evidence of congestion occurs whenever reducing some inputs can increase outputs. Approach: The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 2 Aug 2011 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Approach based on Winter's Model and Weighted Fuzzy Time Series for Forecasting Trend and Seasonal DataSuhartono, Muhammad Hisyam LeeProblem statement: In the literature, the most studied of fuzzy time series for the purpose of forecasting is the first order fuzzy time series model. In this model, only the first lagged variable is used when constructing the first order fuzzy time series model. Therefore, such approaches fail to analyze accurately trend and seasonal time series which is an important … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Development of Robot Hand SystemPanchumarthy Seetharamaiah, Mandapati Venkateswara Rao, Geddapu Venkata SatyanarayanaResearch on robot hand design is being carried out to accommodate a variety of tasks such as grasping and manipulation of objects in the field of industrial applications, service robots and rehabilitation robots. Problem statement: To design and develop a microcontroller-based four fingered robotic hand with a simple and minimal control strategy to pick and place application with object detection … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 6,771 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrogeological Prognosis with Regard to Realisation of the New Colle Di Tenda Road TunnelCinzia Banzato, Massimo Vincenzo Civita, Adriano Fiorucci et al.Problem statement: The doubling of Tenda pass road tunnel jointing SW France to Piedmont (Italy) was planned to penetrate a complicate rock structure in which several complex play an hydrogeologic role including carbonate-Karst aquifer between flysch impervious complexes. The main problem of the project is the presence of an hydraulic circulation feeding a spring of social and economic great importance … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Fish Farming on Household Income: A Case Study from Mymensingh DistrictSyed Mohammad Aminur Rahman, Ariful Haque, Syed Md. Ashrafur RahmanProblem statement: Fisheries sector is a rising sector in Bangladesh. Many farmers are shifting their rice fields to ponds for fish farming in the study areas. This transformation of farming raises a question to the researchers whether fish farming has any impact on household income or not. Thus, the researchers took the present study to identify the contribution of fish … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 2 Feb 2011 · 8,175 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of IBS Precast Concrete Beam-Column Connections Under Earthquake Effects: A Literature ReviewPatrick Tiong Liq Yee, Azlan Bin Adnan, Abdul Karim Mirasa, Ahmad Baharuddin Abdul RahmanProblem statement: Despite demonstrating rather much benefits comparing to the conventional cast-in-place construction, the acceptance level of precast concrete building is still reportedly low in Malaysia. The implication imposed by stricter seismic design provisions would only worsen the matter. Approach: The main objective of this study was to identify the most appropriate type of beam-column connections to be introduced to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 17,554 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimating the Parameters of the Negative-Lindley Distribution using Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-ShannoNaushad Mamode KhanProblem statement: The Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) technique is the most efficient statistical approach to estimate parameters in a cross-sectional model. Often, MLE gives rise to a set of non-linear systems of equations that need to be solved iteratively using the Newton-Raphson technique. However, in some situations such as in the Negative-Lindley distribution where it involves more than one unknown … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 7,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Method of a Low-Pass Filter Based on Microstrip T-Lines with Cut-Off Frequency 10 GHz by the Extraction of its Wave-Scattering Parameters from its Causal Bond Graph ModelHichem Taghouti, Abdelkader MamiProblem statement: This study presented a jointly application of bond graph technique and wave-scattering formalism for a new realization called scattering bond graph model which has the main advantage to show up explicitly the different wave propagation. Approach: For that, we proposed to find the scattering matrix from the causal bond graph model of a low-pass filter based on Microstrip … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2010 · 8,262 accessesView PDFCite
