Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Probability and the Asymptotic Distribution Functions of Increasing Ordered Statistical DataA. A. El-Faheem, Eman A. MahmoudProblem statement: We considered two types of sequences of ordered statistical discrete data i1, i2…in, 1≤i1≤ i2≤… in≤n and ij = 1,2,…,n, j = 1,2,…,n. The first type is the order statistics of a sample of size n taken from the uniform discrete distribution on the set S = {1,2,…,n}, n ∈ N+. The other type is the increasing ordered … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of the Cuttings Cleaning During the Drilling OperationHussain H. Al-Kayiem, Nadia Mohd Zaki, Muhamad Z. Asyraf, Mahir Elya ElfeelProblem statement: Oil well cleaning is the ability of a drilling fluid to suspend and transport drilled cuttings from the down hole (bit face) to the surface. The cleaning performance was affected by many factors such as fluid viscosity, annular flow velocity, angle of inclination and drill cuttings size and shape and. Approach: Navier-Stoke equations, the continuity equation and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Evaluation of Phone Duration Models for Greek Emotional SpeechAlexandros Lazaridis, Vasiliki Bourna, Nikos FakotakisProblem statement: In this study we cope with the task of phone duration modeling for Greek emotional speech synthesis. Approach: Various well established machine learning techniques are applied for this purpose to an emotional speech database consisting of five archetypal emotions. The constructed phone duration prediction models are built on phonetic, morphosyntactic and prosodic features that can be extracted only … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnisotropy Influence of Cubic Solid on Dynamic Hertzian Contact Stiffness for a Vibrating Rigid IndenterJiayong TianProblem statement: Resonance-type microscopies have been widely used to evaluate the nanoscaled or microscaled surface elastic properties of materials by the resonance-frequency shifts of an oscillator, which contacts the surface of materials by a spherical tip. Approach: The tip-specimen contact is modeled to be a spring support, whose stiffness is given by the traditional Hertzian contact theory. However, because of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,711 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of Composite Hardened Walls Subjected to Blast LoadsGirum S. UrgessaProblem statement: There is currently no standard design guideline to determine the number of composites needed to retrofit masonry walls in order to withstand a given explosion. Past design approaches were mainly based on simplified single-degree-of-freedom analysis. A finite element analysis was conducted for concrete masonry walls hardened with composites and subjected to short duration blast loads. Approach: The analysis … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,266 accessesView PDFCite
