Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Higher Order Dispersion Terms in the Nonlinear Schrodinger EquationRobert Beech, Frederick OsmanThis study presents a concise graphical analysis of solitonic solutions to a nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE). A sequence of code using the standard NDSolve function has been developed in Mathematica to investigate the acceptable accuracy of the NLSE in relatively small ranges of the dispersive parameter space. An operator splitting approach was used in the numerical solutions to expand the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,491 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWORKSHOP ON THE SOURCES, QUANTIFICATION AND HEALTH IMPLICATIONS OF BIOAEROSOLS WORKSHOP REPORTKaren Exley, Sarah Robertson, Francis D. Pope et al.Scientists, health care professionals and the general public have all raised concerns about the potential health impact natural and manmade sources bioaerosols. In response in september 2012 the Natural Environmental Research Council and public health England jointly funded a workshop to review the 'sources, quantification and health implications of bioaerosols'. The organising committee for the workshop identified five priority areas-(1) … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 28 Oct 2014 · 6,639 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLagrangian Micromixing Models for Concentration Fluctuations: An OverviewPaolo Monti, Giovanni Leuzzi, Andrea AmicarelliThis study presents a brief overview of the main features, theoretical formulations and validation tests of some Lagrangian micromixing models, currently used for estimations of the ensemble mean and the turbulent fluctuations of concentration. Their application fields regards several pollutant dispersion phenomena such as: accidents (power or production plants, terroristic attacks, hydrocarbons storage and transport, extraordinary emissions), odours (power plants … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 28 Dec 2012 · 6,779 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Critical Processing Variables on Sesame Milk QualityIbrahim Afaneh, Khaled Abu-Alruz, Jihad M. Quasem et al.Problem statement: In previous study sesame milk was developed. The developed milk had slightly acceptable dispersion stability and taste and there were a need to improve it. Approach: Dispersion stability and taste were improved by investigating the interaction effects of sesame seed to water ratios (10 or 12 or 14 % sesame seeds) and different pasteurization treatments (65°C-30 min or … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2011 · 8,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEstimating the Parameters of the Negative-Lindley Distribution using Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-ShannoNaushad Mamode KhanProblem statement: The Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) technique is the most efficient statistical approach to estimate parameters in a cross-sectional model. Often, MLE gives rise to a set of non-linear systems of equations that need to be solved iteratively using the Newton-Raphson technique. However, in some situations such as in the Negative-Lindley distribution where it involves more than one unknown … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 7,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsApplication of a Statistical Model to Biological Data Analysis: Exclusive BreastfeedingNaushad Mamode Khan, Cheika Jahangeer, Daya Goburdhun, Maleika Heenaye-Mamode KhanProblem statement: Breastfeeding is of utmost importance in the maternal life of a woman, particularly exclusive breastfeeding. Exclusive breastfeeding during the first 6 months of life supports optimal growth and development during infancy and reduces the risk of obliterating diseases and problems. Many probability distributions were proposed to model such data such as the mixed Poisson distributions. However, the estimation … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 10,818 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDevelopment of Vegetable Based Milk from Decorticated Sesame (Sesamum Indicum)Jihad M. Quasem, Ayman Suliman Mazahreh, Khaled Abu-AlruzProblem statement: Decorticated sesame seed can supply us with nutritious, functional and healthy meals with relatively low cost. These properties make sesame a valuable source of protein and other nutrients to be utilized in imitated dairy products, which could be used for infant and adults with lactose intolerance as well as for vegetarian or others who like to eat dairy … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 11,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn the Pulsewidth Analysis in the Presence of PMD and PDL in Optical Fibers Using Neural Network AlgorithmA. Sivasubramanian, V. C. RavichandranIn long haul networks, the random birefringence induced in the optical fiber leads to a considerable Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD). Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) mainly occurs in optical components and depends on the state of polarization of optical signals. The presence of PMD and PDL causes pulsewidth narrowing and the pulsewidth reduction depends on states of polarization at which the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of the Mass Transfer Process in Oil SpillFabián Betancourt, Arturo Palacio, Alejandro RodriguezA revision of the models used to study the behavior of the mass loss processes associated with petroleum spills on water and to compare those models with experimental data. The processes of mass transfer studied in this work are evaporating, dissolution, vertical dispersion, emulsification and the changes of properties associated with these. The comparison of the estimations with the field … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPre-Reinforcement Sprinkle FRP for Reinforced-Concrete Beams against Earthquakes, FRP: Consumption in Civil EngineeringMoein Zargar, Hossein Gholami, Hossein Norouzi et al.Nowadays, the reinforcement is used by green concrete, coated steel sheet, reinforcement, fiber reinforced such as carbon, aramid, and glass as earthquake reinforcement methods for concrete structures. regard the reinforcing structures and buildings against earthquake forces in the future, only simple methods for lowering prices should not be considered and the earthquake behaviors should be completely transparent.
