Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredicting CO2 Emissions Using Multivariate Regression: Assessing the Impact of Pandemics and Industrial RevolutionsYoussef Mekki, Chouaib Moujahdi, Noureddine Assad, Aziz DahbiThis paper explores the prediction of CO2 emissions usingMultivariate Regression models, incorporating the influence of significanthistorical events such as pandemics and industrial revolutions. Whileexisting research primarily focuses on carbon emissions alone in forecastingmodels, this study emphasizes the importance of incorporating multiplefactors for a comprehensive understanding of CO2 dynamics. Beyondemissions, factors such as socioeconomic indicators, industrial activities,environmental policies, and historical events … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 7 · 23 Jul 2025 · 3,426 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVALUATION OF THE ADEQUACY OF THE WIND SPEED EXTRAPOLATION LAWS FOR TWO DIFFERENT ROUGHNESS METEOROLOGICAL SITESDalila Khalfa, Abdelouaheb Benretem, Lazher Herous, Issam MeghlaouiIncreasing knowledge on wind shear models to strengthen their reliability appears as a crucial issue, markedly for energy investors to accurately predict the average wind speed at different turbine hub heights and thus the expected wind energy output. This is particularly helpful during the feasibility study to abate the costs of a wind power project. The extrapolation laws were found … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2014 · 7,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShape Retrieval through Angular Distance with Shortest Augmenting Path AlgorithmD. Chitra, N. Devarajan, T. ManigandanProblem statement: The shape of an object is very important in object recognition. Shape matching is a challenging problem, especially when articulation and deformation of a part occurs. These variations may be insignificant for human recognition but often cause a matching algorithm to give results that are inconsistent with our perception. Approach: We proposed a customized approach to measure similarity … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 21 Oct 2011 · 6,817 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison of the Bayesian and Other Methods for Estimation of Reliability Function for Burr-XII DistributionSafaa Ali Nasir, Nashaat Jaisam Al-AnberProblem statement: The Burr-XII distribution has been widely used especially in the modeling of life time event data. It provides a statistical model which has a wide variety of application in many areas and the main advantage is its ability in the context of life time event among other distributions. The conventional maximum likelihood method is the usual way to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of an Educational Scenario Exercise on Participants' Competencies of Systemic ThinkingSimon BurandtProblem statement: Education for sustainable development (ESD) aims to shape key competencies of individuals and therefore needs methods to enable learners to acquire these competencies. Systemic thinking can be regarded as a meta-competency in ESD, because it contains many important aspects found in most key competencies of ESD. Scenario analysis is described as a learning environment that fosters the acquisition … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2010 · 8,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEdge Tracing Manipulation of Clothes Based on Different Gripper TypesKhairul Salleh Mohamed Sahari, Hiroaki Seki, Yoshitsugu Kamiya, Masatoshi HikizuProblem statement: Edge tracing is considered important for deformable object manipulation in order to spread and reveal the original shape of an object before it can be sorted. It is important in unfolding clothes to reveal its original state during sorting. Tracing in this study context involved tracing the clothes edge, with the robot arm movement based on feedback from … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 8,025 accessesView PDFCite
