Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Daily and Monthly Results of Three Evapotranspiration Models in Tropical Zone: A Case StudySeyed Reza Saghravani, Sa’ari Mustapha, Shaharin Ibrahim, Elias RandjbaranProblem statement: Evapotranspiration (ET) has crucial role in agricultural activity, water management and hydraulic engineering. Recently many forms of the equation have been applied for estimating daily and monthly evapotranspiration around the world. Approach: In this study, the daily and monthly ET was estimated by Penman, Penman-Monteith (P&M) and Hargreaves equation to evaluate general relationships for estimating monthly and daily … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReliability of Axially Loaded Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer Confined Reinforced Concrete Circular ColumnsVenkatarman Nagaradjane, Pulipaka Narasimharao Raghunath, Kannan SugunaMonte-Carlo simulation based procedure was applied for assessing the reliability of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) confined reinforced concrete columns. Assessment of reliability provides a quantitative measure of effectiveness of repair. Problem Statement: The procedure presented in the paper could be used for assessing the reliability of reinforced concrete columns before and after the application of FRP wrap, thus helping to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Pan Evaporation Coefficient using Neuro-Genetic ApproachPakorn Ditthakit, Chaiyuth ChinnarasriProblem statement: The pan evaporation coefficient (Kp) is used to convert pan Evaporation (Ep) to reference Evapotranspiration (ETo) due to its simplicity and suitability for locations with limited availability of meteorological data. Approach: This study presents the use of neuro-genetic approach for estimating Kp for Class A pan and Colorado Sunken pan under green and dry fetch conditions. Results: Representative … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,207 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling and Controller Design of an Electro-Hydraulic Actuator SystemM. F. Rahmat, S. Md. Rozali, N. Abdul Wahab et al.Problem statement: Electro-hydraulic actuators are widely used in motion control application. Its valve needs to be controlled to determine direction of the motion. Mathematical modeling is a description of a system in terms of equations. It can be divided into two parts; physical modeling and system identification. The objective of this study was to obtain mathematical model of an electro-hydraulic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 11,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEvaluating Methods of Estimation and Modelling Spatial Distribution of Evapotranspiration in the Middle Heihe River Basin, ChinaChuanyan Zhao, Zhongren Nan, Guodong ChengSeven models commonly used to estimate the daily reference evapotranspiration (ET0) were evaluated in the middle Heihe River Basin of the arid northwestern part of China. The objectives of the study are to choose the appropriate model for estimating the areal distribution of ET0 and to explain the spatial-temporal distribution of the same through GIS in the study area. The … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEstimating 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
