Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Consanguinity in the Moroccan Population of DoukkalaAbderrazak El Khair, Noura Dahbi, Khadija Cheffi et al.Consanguinity, or the practice of marrying close relatives, is a prevalent phenomenon in many parts of the world, including North Africa. It seems to offer psychological, social, economic, and cultural advantages for couples and their families. In Morocco, the situation of this marital behavior is far from being closely defined. The objective of this research endeavor is to furnish a … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2023 · 7,866 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of the Thermodynamic Equilibrium of Fragrance Mixtures, Limonene, Linalool and Geraniol, using the Unifac and Cosmo-Sac Models and the Estimation of their Combined Properties in Binary, Ternary and Quaternary MixturesLavínia Mota Cristianismo Silva, José Izaquiel Santos da Silva, Rogério Alexandre Alves de Melo, Edilailsa Januário de MeloPerfume is a non-ideal complex mixture of chemicals originating from the extraction of essential oils and these oils are volatile components extracted from plants, some animals, or even synthesized. For this reason, to compose a fragrance, there are countless possibilities to combine one element and another, which makes the process slow and expensive. Therefore, in this study, we will combine … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2022 · 7,462 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Non-Technical Electricity Loss Detection Using Artificial Neural Networks: Case of Cameroon Distribution NetworkLekini Nkodo Claude Bernard, Bell Serge Samuel, Nyemb Nsoga Valjacques et al.Non-Technical Losses (NTL) represent a critical challenge for power utilities, particularly in developing countries. This paper proposes an unsupervised deep learning approach based on an autoencoder to detect abnormal electricity consumption patterns in the Cameroonian distribution network. The model learns normal customer behavior using historical consumption data and identifies anomalies through reconstruction error analysis. Statistical thresholds are applied to classify … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 23 Jul 2026 · 1,233 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalyzing Temperature-Dependent Thermal Properties of Titanium Aluminide Using ANN Predictive ModelingArmaghan Shalbaftabar, Kristen Rhinehardt, Dhananjay KumarThis study presents a comprehensive analysis of the thermal behavior of Titanium Aluminide (TiAl) across a range of temperatures using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) predictive model. The study investigates various material properties of TiAl, including Band Gap, Young Module, Density, Energy Absorption, Thermal Conductivity, and Specific Heat, at different temperature points. The ANN model accurately captures the temperature-dependent trends … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 20 Nov 2024 · 4,315 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring Factors Affecting on Willingness to Observe Air Pollution Reduction Policies in Tehran, IranPejman Jafari, Afrooz BotshekanOne of the most important issues of these days is an environmental pollution. Environmental problems such as air pollution and climate changes in urban areas are the results of human behavior. Only change in human behavior can reduce these environmental problems. Thus, studying attitude and behavior of people is a precondition to change this situation. This study aimed to examine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2021 · 7,806 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBig Data in Educational Institutions using RapidMiner to Predict Learning EffectivenessEvaristus Didik Madyatmadja, David Jumpa Malem Sembiring, Sinek Mehuli Br Perangin Angin et al.Schools, universities, colleges and other educational institutions store a lot of data related to students and teachers as well as those related to education. You can analyze this data to gain insights that can improve the operational efficiency of your organization. Educational institution's needs based on student behavior, student exam results, each student's growth and changed educational regulations can be … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 29 Apr 2021 · 6,839 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKnowledge, Training Status and Willingness to Implement Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation of Medical University Students in Chongqing, ChinaHuixian Zhou, Chuan Pu, Feng Chen et al.Timely bystander Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is key to improving survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Medical university students are potential bystander CPR providers. This study aimed to identify the current level of CPR knowledge, the present status of training and factors affecting the willingness to perform CPR among medical university students in Chongqing, China. Random sampling method was used and a … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 5 Apr 2021 · 7,609 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Effect of Soil Particle Characterization on Internal Friction AngleArezou Rasti, Hamid Ranjkesh Adarmanabadi, Maria Pineda, Jesse ReinikainenOne of the critical design parameters used in evaluating soil structure is the friction angle, derived from Mohr's Circle failure criterion. The soil friction angle is an engineering parameter estimated in the laboratory to quantify the soil shear strength in geotechnical applications. This paper indicates an experimental study investigating the impact of particle size on different sandy soils shear strength … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 21 Feb 2021 · 8,899 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydro-Mechanical Constraints and Deformations in Road Embankments Using Unsaturated Low-Swelling SoilSoumaïla Gandema, Marcel Bawindsom Kébré, Rimyalegdo Kiébré et al.In this paper, we present the results of a simulation of the evolution of stresses and deformations in a road embankment using unsaturated low-swelling soil under hydro-mechanical pressures, modeled with the finite element code Code_Bright. We assume that this embankment, which supports asphalt, follows the Barcelona Thermo-Elasto-Plastic model (BBM-TEP). This model describes the Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical (THM) behavior of unsaturated fine soils … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 16 Nov 2025 · 2,752 accessesView PDF Cite
