Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClassification Model for Hotspot Occurrences Using Spatial Decision Tree AlgorithmImas Sukaesih Sitanggang, Razali Yaakob, Norwati Mustapha, A. N. AinuddinDeveloping a predictive model for forest fires occurrence is an important activity in a fire prevention program. The model describes characteristics of areas where fires occur based on past fires data. It is essential as an early warning system for preventing forest fires, thus major damages because of fires can be avoided. This study describes the application of data mining … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2013 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Stability of Underground Rock Pillars through a Probabilistic ApproachMassimo Guarascio, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: When the room and pillar mining method is adopted, the dimensioning of the rock pillars is one of the most important aspects that need to be faced from the engineering point of view. The available calculation methods are usually simplified and involve the areas of influence method for the evaluation of the mean axial stress induced in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 30 Jun 2012 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Bio-Oil: A By-Product from Slow Pyrolysis of Oil Palm Empty Fruit BunchesK. H. Khor, K. O. Lim, Z. A. ZainalProblem statement: Oil palm Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB) are abundant biomass in Malaysia. Studies about production of biofuels using slow pyrolysis of EFB are still lacking. So, this study was aimed to understand the physical and chemical properties of the bio-oil and its simple blends. Approach: EFB was slow pyrolysed with internal heating at terminal temperature of 600°C in a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,016 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractional Calculus Theoretical Evolution for Radiation QuantitiesAmin Al-Okour, Sherin A. Sareireh, Abdullah Ajlouni, Abdul-Wali AjlouniProblem statement: Radiation dosimetry features depend on semi-empirical formulas that lack a strong mathematical framework. This is due to the fact that the microscopic radiation interaction with matter includes energy losses that have never been described properly in quantum mechanics, which deals with conserved energy systems. Approach: Using the recent theory of the quantization of nonconservative systems using fractional calculus. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2012 · 6,661 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractBeef Cattle Farm Development Policies to Overcome Beef Distribution Problem in Indonesia: A Literature ReviewBasril BasyarThis study aims to formulate policy solutions to the distribution of beef in Indonesia by using a descriptive approach relying on secondary data obtained from various state agencies as well as relevant previous studies literature. This study seeks to address the question as to how to formulate ideal livestock policies to help boost beef production and distribution in Indonesia. The … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 26 Feb 2021 · 7,479 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUncertainty Assessment for the Buckling Analysis of Glass Columns with Random ParametersMohammad Momeni, Chiara BedonLoad-bearing elements composed of glass, as known, are often susceptible to buckling collapse mechanisms. This intrinsic characteristic (and thus potential limitation for design) typically derives from the use of relatively small thicknesses to cover large spans and surfaces, thus resulting in a multitude of columns, beams, or plates that are characterized by high slenderness. In the literature, accordingly, several and … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 22 Dec 2020 · 6,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Analysis of Spatial MechanismsFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe paper briefly presents how structural analysis is performed on spatial mechanisms, presenting a practical application in the mechatronics of parallel robots, especially in Steward platforms. Structural analysis always helps to better understand the phenomena and especially the way the mechanisms are made. At spatial mechanisms the problems are a little more complex than those raised by plane mechanisms. For … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 May 2018 · 7,971 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCRITERIA FOR THE COMPLEXITY OF SUCCESSIVE ASTRONOMICAL PARADIGMSPanagiotis Papaspirou, Kostas Karamanos, Xenophon MoussasWe investigate the complexity of three successive astronomical paradigms in the science of Physics, namely the Ptolemaic paradigm, the Copernican paradigm and the Keplerian paradigm and mention briefly some characteristic facts about the colossal Newtonian paradigm. This complexity can be understood according to five criteria, as proposed by Thomas Kuhn, the father of the epistemological notion of the paradigm, as … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2014 · 8,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Influencing the Extent of Practice of Organic Farming Technologies: A Case Study of Tangail District in BangladeshMd. Asaduzzaman Sarker, Yoshihito ItoharaThe study was attempted to explore the major factors influencing the extent of practice of organic farming technologies (called OFTs from here) by the Bangladeshi farmers. The empirical data for the study were collected from the organic farmers of the selected villages of Tangail district in Bangladesh. The results of the study identified four factors like development of knowledge and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysical Characterizations of Sands and Their Influence in Fall VelocityRuiz-Martinez Gabriel, Mendoza-Baldwin Edgar, Silva-Casarín RodolfoCancun beach is one of the most important tourist resorts on the Mexican coast, and is of prime importance to the local and national economies. As a result of the intense use of the beach and the unavailability of sand reserves, the extreme weather events that occur in the region (hurricanes) have permanently damaged the beach. Over the last two … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,460 accessesView PDFCite
