Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplified Block Matching Algorithm for Fast Motion Estimation in Video CompressionM. Ezhilarasan, P. ThambiduraiBlock matching motion estimation was one of the most important modules in the design of any video encoder. It consumed more than 85% of video encoding time due to searching of a candidate block in the search window of the reference frame. To minimize the search time on block matching, a simplified and efficient Block Matching Algorithm for Fast Motion … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,052 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeural Network for Performance of Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer Plated RC BeamsN. Pannirselvam, P.N. Raghunath, K. SugunaPrediction of the properties other than moment carrying capacity of GFRP plated RC beams does not have any straight forward mechanism. This study presents a General Regression Neural Network (GRNN) based computational model for predicting the yield load, ultimate load, yield deflection, ultimate deflection, deflection ductility and energy ductility of such beams. Results from experimental investigations carried out on nine … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Takeoff Angle of Bucket Type Energy Dissipater on Scour HoleNor Azlina Alias, Thamer Ahmed Mohamed, Abdul Halim Ghazali, Megat Johari Megat Mohd. NoorScour holes formed downstream of bucket type energy dissipater may affect the safety and stability of the structure. In this study, a physical model is employed to study the impact of takeoff angle of bucket type energy dissipater on the scour hole. The area of longitudinal profile of the scour hole is used to evaluate the seriousness of the scour … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 8,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Treatment of the Mathematical Models for Water PollutionF. B. Agusto, O. M. BamigbolaTo evaluate the environmental impact of pollution, mathematical models play a major role in predicting the pollution level in the regions under consideration. This paper examines the various mathematical models involving water pollutant. We also give the implicit central difference scheme in space, and a forward difference method in time for the evaluation of the generalized transport equation. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,386 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrientation Detection of Sensed Objects using a Four Sensor Tactile System with Applications in Bio-RoboticsAshkan Mirbagheri, Javad Dargahi, Siamak Najarian, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheA novel approach is presented that can be used in determining the sensitivity of a four sensor tactile sensor to the orientation of the contacted objects. Computer simulations were conducted by using a rectangular probe of 14 mm by 7 mm size and applying three magnitudes of forces, i.e., 0.5, 1, and 2 N. A bi-variate function was obtained, showing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombustion Analysis of a CI Engine Performance Using Waste Cooking Biodiesel Fuel with an Artificial Neural Network AidGholamhassan NAJAFI, Barat GHOBADIAN, Talal F. YUSAF, Hadi RAHIMIA comprehensive combustion analysis has been conducted to evaluate the performance of a commercial DI engine, water cooled two cylinders, in-line, naturally aspirated, RD270 Ruggerini diesel engine using waste vegetable cooking oil as an alternative fuel. In order to compare the brake power and the torques values of the engine, it has been tested under same operating conditions with diesel … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 8,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligence System for Software Maintenance Severity PredictionParvinder Singh Sandhu, Sunil Kumar, Hardeep SinghThe software industry has been experiencing a software crisis, a difficulty of delivering software within budget, on time, and of good quality. This may happen due to number of defects present in the different modules of the project that may require maintenance. This necessitates the need of predicting maintenance urgency of the particular module in the software. In this paper, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,947 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Social Capital on Adoption of Rural Development Programs by Farmers in the Caspian Sea Region of IranA. Ahmadi Firouzjaie, H. Sadighi, M.A. MohammadiThe main purpose of this study was to measure social capital (consisting of structural and cognitive) of mainly rice producing farmers in the Caspian See region of Iran. The secondary purpose was to determine the influence of farmers' social capital on adoption of Rural Development Programs (RDPs). This was a descriptive-correlation and a causal-comparative survey study. The population of this … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,034 accessesView PDFCite
