Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMoments of Order Statistics from Nonidentically Distributed Three Parameters Beta typeI and Erlang Truncated Exponential VariablesA. A. Jamjoom, Z. A. AL-SaiaryProblem statement: Moments of order statistics of independent non-identically distributed (INID) random variables is not an easy subject to deal with for continuous distributions. One is forced to use messy algebraic calculations (whether one uses permanents or not). This was the motivation behind this study. In this study the moments of order statistics arising from independent nonidentically distributed three parameters … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,373 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSummarizing Spatial Distribution Density, Movement Patterns and Food Resources to Study the Impacts of Logging and Forest Conversion on Orang-utan PopulationRaymond Alfred, Koh Pei Hue, Lee Shan Khee, Rayner AlfredProblem statement: Orang-utan is classified as a totally protected species and is listed as an endangered species in Borneo. The survival of this species is highly dependent on the existence and quality of the lowland forest of Sabah. However, most of the pristine habitats in the lowland area have been converted into other land use activities such as a large … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Buoyancy Force in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of a Two-Dimensional Continuous Ohmic Heating ProcessElzubier A. Salih, Thomas S.Y. Choong, S. Y. Sergie et al.Problem statement: Earlier work on ohmic heating technique focused on viscous food and foods containing solid particles. In this study, the use of ohmic heating on sterilization of guava juice is carried out. Computational fluid dynamics is used to model and simulate the system. Approach: Investigate the buoyancy effect on the CFD simulation of continuous ohmic heating systems of fluid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoplankton Community of Elechi Creek, Niger Delta, Nigeria-A Nutrient-Polluted Tropical CreekO. A. Davies, J. F.N. Abowei, C. C. TawariProblem statement: Elechi Creek of the Upper Bonny Estuary in the Niger Delta contributes to the Rivers State Fish resources. It is a sink receiving organic anthropogenic wastes from Diobu, Eagle Island and waterfront dwellers of Diobu areas. Fishing, car washing, bathing, swimming and other human activities are constantly going on within and around this creek. Based on these activities, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,968 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEconomic Ordering Quantity Model with Lead Time Reduction and Backorder Price Discount for Stochastic DemandMing-Cheng LoThis study considered reorder point on the continuous review inventory model under controllable lead time with mixture of backorder price discounts and partial lost sales. We developed a continuous review inventory model where the lead time, the order quantity, backorder discount and safety factor were considered as the decision variables of a mixture of backorders and lost sales inventory model. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffective Thermophilic Composting of Crop Residues for Inactivation of Tobacco Mosaic VirusA.E. Ghaly, F. Alkoaik, A. Snow, R. SinghAn effective thermophilic composting bioreactor, in which a homogenous distribution of temperature was maintained at 63-65°C by the addition of a bioavailable carbon and low mixing, was developed. The bioreactor operated on a mixture of tomato plant residues-wood shavings-municipal solid waste compost infected with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). The initial C: N ratio and moisture content of the compost mixture … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison of Spatio-Temporal Bayesian Models for Reconstruction of Rainfall Fields in a Cloud Seeding ExperimentSujit k. sahu, Giovanna Jona Lasinio, Arianna orasi, Kanti V. MardiaIn response to the drought experienced in Southern Italy a rain seeding project has been setup and developed during the years 1989-1994. The initiative was taken with the purpose of applying existing methods of rain enhancement technology to regions of south Italy including Puglia. The aim of this study is to provide statistical support for the evaluation of the experimental … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction Intervals for Future Observations Based on Samples of Random SizesMohammad Z. Raqab, Haroon M. BarakatOn the basis of failure times of an informative sample (X-sample) of random size M of iid continuous random variables, we consider the prediction problem of failure times of another independent future sample (Y-sample) of random size N of iid variables from the same distribution. In this paper, we derive various exact prediction intervals for future failure times from the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2018 · 7,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Quality of Transport and Environmental Protection, Part IRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Aversa Raffaella, Samuel Kozaitis et al.The today main challenge to protect the environment through the development of new and more efficient transportation systems is presented. The absolutely necessary goods distribution and human transfers are polluting and damaging the environment and new solution should be envisaged; the conflicting strategies to adopt new types of environment friendly transportation while maintaining operative the more economically convenient, but largely … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Sep 2017 · 7,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccessing the Appropriateness of a Spatial Regression Using Generalized (h1h2-)Slepian Random FieldWayan Somayasa, Jamhir Safani, La Ode Ngkoimani, Muhamad Zamrun F.In this study we derived asymptotic goodness-of-fit test (model check) for spatial regression where the critical region as well as the p-value of the tests are approximated based on the distribution of a type of the integral functional of the generalized (h1h2-)-Slepian field and the set-indexed Gaussian white noise. Such random fields are obtained as the limit process of the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 2 May 2017 · 7,362 accessesView PDFCite
