Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractECONOMIC EVALUATION OF AQUACULTURE INVESTMENTS UNDER CONDITIONS OF RISK AND UNCERTAINTY IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEAFilippo Sgroi, Salvatore Tudisca, Anna Maria Di Trapani, Riccardo TestaThis study aims to analyze, from a technical and economic point of view, the choice between alternative investments in aquaculture under conditions of risk and uncertainty. In particular, a comparative analysis has been conducted between an inshore and an offshore farm producing European sea bass in the Mediterranean Sea. The applied model refers to the theory of subjective probability, assigning … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 1 Oct 2014 · 6,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Clock Tree Synthesis Under Stochastic Process Variation Modeling for Multi-FPGA SystemsKarthik Thirumalai Sampath, Jawahar Senthil Kumar VeerabadranIn this age of scientific computing, the experiment models and evaluation is a commonly employed rendition of the simulation methods. In addition to the optimality, the methods which depict underlying uncertainty in process variation. It is accomplished by adjusting number of samples on delay and wire width. Here addresses the thermal profile, if temperature gradually increases, also reduce worst case … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 29 Oct 2013 · 6,510 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPossibility and Evidence-Based Reliability Analysis and Design OptimizationHong-Zhong Huang, Liping He, Yu Liu et al.Engineering design under uncertainty has gained considerable attention in recent years. A great multitude of new design optimization methodologies and reliability analysis approaches are put forth with the aim of accommodating various uncertainties. Uncertainties in practical engineering applications are commonly classified into two categories, i.e., aleatory uncertainty and epistemic uncertainty. Aleatory uncertainty arises because of unpredictable variation in the performance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 7,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTunnel Static Behavior Assessed by a Probabilistic Approach to the Back-AnalysisClaudio Oggeri, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: The steps of the validation procedure of the project of a tunnel are briefly illustrated in this study, starting from the geological and structural surveys on the excavation walls and the measurement of the physical and mechanical parameters during the excavation works. Unfortunately, however, the knowledge of the rock mass, which is fundamental to the project, is usually … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 4 Jun 2012 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Postmodern Design for Information Technology in Education in Relation to ModernismSaeid Zarghami Hamrah, Parvin BazghandiProblem statement: The purpose of present study is a comparative analysis of the philosophical bases of postmodernism in relation to modernism and suggesting the necessities of each base in the designing information technology in education. Approach: The research method for the present study was comparative analysis. Results: The first base was rejection of objective view toward the universe and accepting … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 26 Mar 2012 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Soil and Water Assessment Tools Model for Runoff EstimationM. Hosseini, M.S.M. Amin, A.M. Ghafouri, M.R. TabatabaeiProblem statement: The most of the distributed or physically-based hydrologic and water quality models from developed countries are not directly applicable in developing countries due to both lack of data and different climatic conditions. Hence, there is a need for a study to be conducted a catchment of developed countries. Approach: From a review of various models to estimate runoff … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 8,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhat Else do Epileptic Data RevealRamalingam ShanmugamProblem statement: Aggregating and analyzing data of all patients using statistical methodologies as often done in macro sense would be not useful when physician’s professional interest was only to provide the best medical care to the patient. For this purpose, individual data of the involved patient should be analyzed and modeled in a micro sense for the physician to notice … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2011 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing Community Health Risks: Proactive Vs Reactive SamplingSarah Taylor, Chelsea Papadopoulos, Sarah Vieillet, Peter Di MarcoProblem statement: A considerable number of native birds died in the West Australian coastal town of Esperance and surroundings during late 2006 and early 2007, which raised community concerns about environmental contamination. Forensic investigations of dead birds suggested that lead may have been the causative agent. At the time, lead and nickel, as well as iron ore and other materials, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,840 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Liquefaction Return Period for Bangalore Based on Standard Penetration Test Data: Performance Based ApproachK. S. Vipin, T. G. SitharamProblem statement: The conventional liquefaction evaluation is based on a deterministic approach. However in this method the uncertainty in the earthquake loading is not properly taken into account. However recent research in this field indicates that this uncertainty in the earthquake loading has to be considered in the liquefaction potential evaluation. Moreover the evaluation of liquefaction return period is not … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn The Estimation of Survival Function and Parameter Exponential Life Time DistributionHadeel Salim Al-Kutubi, Noor Akma IbrahimProblem statement: The study and research of survival or reliability or life time belong to the same area of study but they may belong to a different area of application. In survival analysis one can use several life time distribution, exponential distribution with mean life time θ is one of them. To estimate this parameter and survival function we must … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
