Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two Dimensional Infinite Element Model to Study Temperature Distribution in Human Dermal Regions due to TumorsK. R. pardasani, Madhvi shakyaIn this study, a two dimensional infinite element model has been developed to study thermal effect in human dermal regions due to tumors. This model incorporates the effect of blood mass flow rate, metabolic heat generation and thermal conductivity of the tissues.The dermal region is divided into three natural layers, namely, epidermis, dermis and subdermal tissues. A uniformly perfused tumor … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Integrated Production Scheduling System in the Process IndustryMohamed K. Omar, Yasothei A.P. Suppiah, Siew C. TeoThis study introduces a three-level hierarchical production planning and scheduling approach developed and implemented in a resin factory. Our approach proposes at the first level a mixed-integer linear programming for solving the aggregate planning model. At the second level, a weighted-integer goal-programming model is developed to disaggregate the developed aggregate plans. A sequencing algorithm is developed for the third level … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybridization of Neural Learning Algorithms Using Evolutionary and Discrete Gradient ApproachesRanadhir Ghosh, John Yearwood, Moumita Ghosh, Adil BagirovIn this study we investigated a hybrid model based on the Discrete Gradient method and an evolutionary strategy for determining the weights in a feed forward artificial neural network. Also we discuss different variants for hybrid models using the Discrete Gradient method and an evolutionary strategy for determining the weights in a feed forward artificial neural network. The Discrete Gradient … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPharmacodynamic Comparison of the Carbapenems Against E. coli and Klebsiella spp. Containing Extended spectrum β-lactamasesKathryn J. Eagye, Joseph L. Kuti, David P. NicolauCarbapenems are the treatment of choice for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). Ertapenem is a new member of the carbapenem class, and is often grouped with imipenem and meropenem as a recommended treatment for ESBLs. However, new in vitro data question ertapenem’s inclusion as a first line treatment for these bacteria, suggesting that ertapenem has a lower likelihood of obtaining appropriate pharmacodynamic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Rhizobacterial Inoculation on Growth of the Sweetpotato CultivarY. Farzana, O. RadizahSweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is the most important of local tuber crops in Malaysia. It is usually planted on marginal soils such as peat and sandy soils. Malaysian consumes a lot of sweetpotato and its production requires high fertilizer input, which can lead to increased production cost and environment problems. The use of bio-fertilizer and bioenhancer such as N2 (nitrogen) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupplying a Common Distribution Load through Two Different SourcesM. H. Naeem, K. P. BasuPhase angle difference between any two Busbar voltages of a big power system varies with the loading and operating condition of the power system. Supplying a common distributed load from these two phase shifted sources needs the application of a controlled phase shifter. Three-phase tapped autotransformer connected in delta with properly controlled variation of input and output tap settings may … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPeriodic Review Probabilistic Multi-Item Inventory System with Zero Lead Time under Constraints and Varying Order CostHala A. FerganyThis study treats the probabilistic safety stock n-items inventory system having varying order cost and zero lead-time subject to two linear constraints. The expected total cost is composed of three components: the average purchase cost; the expected order cost and the expected holding cost. The policy variables in this model are the number of periods Nr* and the optimal maximum … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 7,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractJob Satisfaction Among Academic Staff in Private Universities in MalaysiaA. S. Santhapparaj, Syed S. AlamThis study examines the relationships between pay, promotion, fringe benefits, working condition, support of research, support of teaching, gender and job satisfaction of academic staff in private universities in Malaysia. The required information was collected from 173 teaching staff who were randomly selected from three universities. The regression results indicate that pay, promotion, working condition and support of research have … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics of Infected Snails and Mated Schistosoma Worms within the Human HostG. Besigye-Bafaki, L. S. LuboobiMale and female worms are independently distributed within a human host each with a Poisson probability distribution mass function. Mating takes place immediately when partners are available. It was found that the mated worm function is non-linear near the origin and becomes almost linear as the worms increase. They increase with increase in the worm load due to aggregation of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Simulation of a Turbulent Lean, Premixed Combustion with an Explicit Algebraic Stress ModelWilliam Vicente, Martín Salinas-Vázquez, Eliseo Martínez, Alejandro RodríguezA computational model is used in the present paper to study the influence of the turbulence modeling on the chemical species in a turbulent lean premixed flame. The simulated configuration is about a lean, premixed bluff-body-stabilized flame with a recirculation zone. To achieve the objectives, three different models were used for turbulence modeling as listed next: 1) standard k-ε, 2) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,319 accessesView PDFCite
