Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordComplexity in Human Perception of Brightness: A Historical Review on the Evolution of the Philosophy of Visual PerceptionKuntal Ghosh, Kamales BhaumikProblem statement: The “eye-brain” complex, which contributes maximally to visual perception, is no doubt a very interesting object for complexity study. In this review we shall try to present some of its aspects in perceiving brightness. It is a well-known fact that the perceived brightness of any surface depends on the brightness of the surfaces that surround it, a phenomenon … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordLow Cycle Fatigue Behavior of a Reduced End Plate Moment Connection (T-Stub)Chemin Lim, Wonchang Choi, Emmett A. Sumner, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: In this research, four reduced End Plate Moment Connection (EPMC) specimens (T-stubs) are tested to verify the numerical and theoretical methods for preanalysis of the Low Cycle Fatigue (LCF) behavior of a four-bolt extended unstiffened EPMC. Approach: The T-stub specimens are bolted to a support frame and a monotonic load is applied to the stem plate. Yield line … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 12 Jan 2012 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEvaluation of a Dual-Purpose Chemical Applicator for Paddy FieldsMohammed Shu’aibu Abubakar, Desa Ahmad, Othman Jamarei et al.Problem statement: One of the major problems of rice production is the shortage of labor resulting from migration from rural to urban areas, making it very difficult to meet peak demands for paddy production. In most developing countries of Southeast Asia, agricultural mechanization of paddy field operation is mostly carried out using conventional machines. For example in rice production powerintensive … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInvestigation on the Behavior of Rigid Polyvinylchloride Pipes Subjected to Uniaxial Compression LoadsAbdullah Ali Nasser Alhamati, Abdul Halim Ghazali, Jamalodin Norzaie et al.The objective of this research was to investigate the capability of rigid Polyvinylchloride (PVC-U) pipes to sustain axial loads. The behavior of PVC-U pipes specimens subjected to short-term uniaxial compression loads was experimentally investigated. Results of the load-displacement tests on pipes of different wall thickness, diameter and specimen heights were recorded. The experimental test results show that the PVC-U pipes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 6,696 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordImprovement of Tone Intelligibility for Average-Voice-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: Tone intelligibility in speech synthesis is an important attribute that should be taken into account. The tone correctness of the synthetic speech is degraded considerably in the average-voice-based HMM-based Thai speech synthesis. The tying mechanism in the decision tree based context clustering without appropriate criterion causes unexpected tone neutralization. Incorporation of the phrase intonation to the context clustering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 24 Jan 2012 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordBackscattered Acoustic Energy by Monobubbles Experimental Approach and Statistical Study of the AttenuationAli Khelil, Claude ManteProblem statement: As the number of air bubbles in the sea is very high, they are so many acoustic diffusers who make illegible the recordings the purpose of which is to quantify the alive bodies. The signals backscattered by air bubbles constitute a parasite in offshore recordings and must be eliminated. It is planned to finalize techniques allowing the localization … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,579 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEstimation of Naturally Modified Mineral Water Protection Activity Against Experimental InfectionsEdward Vladimir Krizhanovsky, Kwong Choong LimAn estimation of protective efficiency of naturally modified mineral water (BAE Synergy Liquid preparation) was performed on animals in models of flue and anthrax infections. The preparation exhibited a significant effect as a preventive and therapeutic agent at these infections. …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,873 accessesView PDFCite
