Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign, Fabrication and Operational Evaluation of a Co-Pyrolysis System for Waste-Plastics Derived Fuels: A Study of Edo NorthKevin Otoikhian, Ubani Oluwaseun Amune, Kennedy Edogamhe et al.This research work designed, developed and assessed the performance of a co-pyrolysis system generating waste-plastic extract fuels from mixed Municipal Waste Plastics (MWP) while evaluating High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Polypropylene (PP) and Polystyrene (PS) as the main municipal waste plastic sources. The materials selected for the reactor were carefully studied to meet the pyrolysis system's strength, operability and safety requirements. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2022 · 7,517 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOdds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution: Properties and EstimationRosaiah Kanaparthi, Gadde Srinivasa Rao, Kruthiventi Kalyani, Devireddy Charana Udaya SivakumarWe propose a distribution called Odds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution (OELLD), which is an odds family of distribution. Its hazard rate is an increasing and decreasing function based on the value of the parameter. Explicit expressions for the ordinary moments, L-moments, quantile, generating functions, Bonferroni Curve, Lorenz Curve, Gini's index and order statistics are derived. The parameters of the proposed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2017 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Family: Σh DistributionsYasser Mohamed Amer, Rania Mustafa ShalabiIn this study, a new method is proposed for generating families of the sum of the hazard functions for two distributions named the Σh distributions. This new family will help in the application of a wider range of life time data. Many new distributions, which are members of the family, are presented with emphasis on the Σh Exponential-Lomax distribution. Details … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2021 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Uniform Truncated Negative Binomial Distribution and its PropertiesBahady I. Kamel, Shaban E. Abo Youssef, Mohamed G. SiefA new three parameters continuous distribution which is named the Uniform Truncated Negative Binomial (UTNB) distribution is introduced. It has the uniform and the Marshall-Olkin extended uniform distributions as sub-models. Some reliability and statistical properties of the new distribution are derived, including the shape behavior of the density and hazard rate functions, the mean residual life, moments and moment generating … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2016 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCognitively Inspired Algorithm for Imprecise NavigationMelissa Shahrom, Zalilah Abd AzizThis paper presents an algorithm, namely the private navigation algorithm. The aim of this algorithm is to bridge the gap between high quality navigation services and low quality of location information or imprecise data. Generally, the imprecision is due to the poor positioning technology and the algorithms use to protect location privacy. The benefits of the algorithm are at least … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 14 Jul 2016 · 7,097 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFitted Reproducing Kernel Method for Solving a Class of Third-Order Periodic Boundary Value ProblemsAsad Freihat, Radwan Abu-Gdairi, Hammad Khalil et al.In this article, the reproducing kernel Hilbert space W24 [0, 1] is employed for solving a class of third-order periodic boundary value problem by using fitted reproducing kernel algorithm. The reproducing kernel function is built to get fast accurately and efficiently series solutions with easily computable coefficients throughout evolution the algorithm under constraint periodic conditions within required grid points. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 11 May 2016 · 7,647 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Lignin Fraction Extracted from Brazilian Energy CropsDiogo José Horst, Jhon Jairo Ramírez Behainne, Pedro Paulo de Andrade Junior, Luís Filippe SerpeThis study quantifies the extraction performance and some properties of the lignin obtained from six crops with potential for generating thermal energy in Brazil. A full factorial design (22) with four replicates including two extraction methods and two particles size distributions was adopted for assessing the fraction of lignin, as well as its Higher Heating Value (HHV) and composition given … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2015 · 7,581 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow (Un)biased are Airport Security Screening Procedures? A Social-Cognitive ExperimentPoornima Madhavan, Jeremy R. BrownProblem statement: This research examined the role that social-cognitive biases such as gender biases and racial biases play in decision making processes during the screening of carry-on luggage at airports. This research is unique in that no research so far has addressed the social-psychological underpinnings of airport security screening procedures. Approach: Participants (n = 36) performed a computer simulated task … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Time-Dependent Mean and Variance of the Non-Stationary Markovian Infinite Server SystemPeter M. EllisProblem statement: In many queuing situations the average arrival and service rates vary over time. In those situations a transient solution for the state probabilities and mean and variance must be obtained. Approach: The mean and the variance of a particular infinite server model will be obtained using the state differential-difference equations and the factorial moment generating function. The average … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Combinational Circuits for Control PurposesMaher A. Nabulsi, Mohammed A.F. Al-HusainyProblem statement: Combinational circuits are used in computers for generating binary control decisions and for providing digital components for data processing. Approach: The use of combinational circuits and logic gates to control other circuits was discussed. Different systems that use logic gates, multiplexers, decoders and encoders to control different circuits were presented. This study presented a design and implementation of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,237 accessesView PDFCite
