Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Environmental and Hydraulic Performance of Bio-Composite Revetment BlocksThamer A. Mohamed, Nor A. Alias, Abdul H. Ghazali, Mohd. S. JaafarIt is necessary to develop a concrete revetment block which can cater for environment and at the same time it will be effective in protecting river banks (stabilize the slope of banks) from scouring during flood. In the present study, the environmental and hydraulic performance of the proposed revetment block was evaluated through laboratory and field tests. The tested revetment … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,969 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Detection and Classification Algorithm for Power Quality Disturbances using WaveletsC. Sharmeela, M. R. Mohan, G. Uma, J. BaskaranThis study presents a novel method to detect and classify power quality disturbances using wavelets. The proposed algorithm uses different wavelets each for a particular class of disturbance. The method uses wavelet filter banks in an effective way and does multiple filtering to detect the disturbances. A qualitative comparison of results shows the advantages and drawbacks of each wavelet when … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,634 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Neutral Network in Predicting Corporate FailureHuong G. NguyenThis study investigates the predictive power of three neutral network models: Multi-layer neural network, probabilistic neural network, and logistic regression model in predicting corporate failure. Basing on the database provided by The Corporate Scorecard Group (CSG), we combine financial ratios which deem to be significant predictors of corporate bankruptcy in many previous empirical studies to build our predictive models and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,327 accessesView PDF Cite
