Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of Large Capacity Endplate Steel ConnectionsMohamed Eldemerdash, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Moayyad Al NasraProblem statement: Extended endplate connection is one of the most widely used beam-to column steel connections because of its fabrication simplicity, good overall performance and cost effectiveness compared with other connection types. The objective of this research is to develop three-dimensional finite element models to study the behavior of large capacity eight-bolt extended un-stiffened wide endplate steel connections, using current-technology … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 28 Jan 2012 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtending the Technology Acceptance Model to Account for Social Influence, Trust and Integration for Pervasive Computing Environment: A Case Study in University IndustryFarahwahida Mohd, Faudzi Ahmad, Norsila Samsudin, Suhizaz SudinProblem statement: The aims of this study are to develop ubiquitous computing environment using Bluetooth (UCEB) and measure the validity and reliability on in order to support student admission services in University Industry Selangor (UNISEL). Approach: This study is based on the descriptive survey research using revised Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), known as Pervasive Technology Acceptance Model (PTAM). Results: This … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Modeled K-Cluster Quality Mining of Hidden Knowledge for Decision SupportS. Parkash Kumar, K. S. RamaswamiProblem statement: The work presented Fuzzy Modeled K-means Cluster Quality Mining of hidden knowledge for Decision Support. Based on the number of clusters, number of objects in each cluster and its cohesiveness, precision and recall values, the cluster quality metrics is measured. The fuzzy k-means is adapted approach by using heuristic method which iterates the cluster to form an efficient … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 24 Aug 2011 · 6,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Multi-Dimensional Model of Violent BehaviorManuel Martinez-PonsProblem statement: A model of violence (Multidimensional Model of Violent Behavior; MMVB) was tested. Approach: 416 university students were surveyed to ascertain the difficulty they experience in coping with different forms of violence, violence forms they are prone to exhibit and their levels of psychopathology. Results: Factor analysis disclosed evidence of the MMVB’s construct validity; and correlational analysis shed light … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 9 Mar 2011 · 7,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDividend Maximization in the Cramer-Lundberg Model using Homotopy Analysis MethodJuma Kasozi, Fred Mayambala, Charles Wilson MaheraProblem statement: We used the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) to numerically compute the value function of the dividend payment in the basic insurance process. Approach: The process is a constant income stream from premiums which is subtracted a claim process of the Poisson type. Further, an allowance for payment of dividends to share holders was incorporated. Results: The case when … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPower System Oscillations Damping Using Unified Power Flow Controller-Based StabilizerLokman H. Hassan, M. Moghavvemi, Haider A.F. MohamedProblem statement: The Phillips-Heffron model of a power system with UPFC published by AJAS, demonstrates the effect of the UPFC in improving power system oscillation stability. Unfortunately, some of the equations have not been correctly derived and so working with this model in its existing form is misleading. Approach: In this study, the model is revisited and the equations are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrdinal Logistic Regression Model: An Application to Pregnancy OutcomesK. A. Adeleke, A. A. AdepojuProblem statement: This research aimed at modeling a categorical response i.e., pregnancy outcome in terms of some predictors, determines the goodness of fit as well as validity of the assumptions and selecting an appropriate and more parsimonious model thereby proffered useful suggestions and recommendations. Approach: An ordinal logistic regression model was used as a tool to model the three major … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 14,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Stock Dependent Economic Order Quantity Model for Perishable Items Under Inflationary ConditionsSingh Sarbjit, Singh Shiv RajProblem statement: In most of the earlier inventory models, effect of inflation has been ignored, which is playing pilot role in present environment. In this article, we have proposed an economic order quantity model for deteriorating items having stock dependent demand (whose demand varies with the stock) under the effect of inflation. Approach: Firstly, problem is framed in the form … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,387 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactor Analysis, Target Factor Testing and Model Designing of Aromatic Solvent Effect of the Formyl Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Chemical Shift in Para substituted BenzaldehydesGhazwan F. FadhilProblem statement: The variations of formyl proton Chemical Shifts (CS) of p-substituted benzaldehydes in aromatic solvents were investigated. The validity of several physical solvent and empirical solvent scales was examined. Also, to predict dipolarity-polarizability (π*) solvent scale for some aromatic solvents. Model designing was also achieved to rationalize the aromatic solvent effect on the formyl proton CS. Approach: The previously … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality Metric Development Framework (qMDF)K. Mustafa, R. A. KhanSeveral object-oriented metrics have been developed and used in conjunction with the quality models to predict the overall quality of software. However, it may not be enough to propose metrics. The fundamental question may be of their validity, utility and reliability. It may be much significant to be sure that these metrics are really useful and for that their construct … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,379 accessesView PDFCite
