Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Early Weaning on Performance, Health Parameters, and Carcass Traits of Bonsmara Bull Calves Under Feedlot ConditionsKgotso Patrick Matli, Thobela Louis Tyasi, Pieter FourieA feedlot is an intensive farming system used for finishing livestock. This study analyzed the performance, health, and carcass traits of Early-Weaned Calves (EWC) and Traditionally-Weaned Calves (TWC). A total of 285 Bonsmara bull calves were grouped into two weaning strategies, with 136 EWC (255±27.30 kg) and 149 TWC (308±24.60 kg). Backgrounding was followed by a finishing phase, with a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 14 Aug 2026 · 1,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE EFFICIENCY OF EMPIRICAL LIKELIHOOD WITH NUISANCE PARAMETERSXing WangIn this study we check the asymptotic efficiency of empirical likelihood in the presence of nuisance parameters combined with augmented moment conditions. We show that in the presence of nuisance parameters, the asymptotic efficiency of the empirical likelihood estimator of the parameter of interest will increase by adding more moment conditions, in the sense of the positive semidefiniteness of the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 17 Feb 2014 · 6,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleESTIMATION OF WEIBULL PARAMETERS USING A RANDOMIZED NEIGHBORHOOD SEARCH FOR THE SEVERITY OF FIRE ACCIDENTSSoontorn Boonta, Anchalee Sattayatham, Pairote SattayathamIn this study, we applied Randomized Neighborhood Search (RNS) to estimate the Weibull parameters to determine the severity of fire accidents; the data were provided by the Thai Reinsurance Public Co., Ltd. We compared this technique with other frequently-used techniques: the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE), the Method of Moments (MOM), the Least Squares Method (LSM) and the weighted least squares … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Study of Seasonal Physicochemical Parameters in River UsmaA. I. Ugwu, R. J. WakawaGrowing populations may put stresses on natural waters by impairing both the quality of the water and the hydrological budget. Abuja, being relatively a new city and the new Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria, has scarce physicochemical data on its water resources that could assist in making robust decision in mitigating the impact of human societies on natural waters; which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 20 Sep 2012 · 9,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstimating 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 accessEvery word in the titleIdentification the Specific Relationships among Physical Parameters which Use to Quantify Inactivation Effect of Charged Particles at Low DosesAbubaker Ali Yousif, Ismail Bin Bahari, Muhamad Samudi YasirProblem statement: The relationships among physical qualities parameters which are characterized charged particles are not extensively determined for all types of ionizing radiations; the specific physical parameters that are also qualified to quantify the radiation effects of charged particles have been investigated. Approach: Secondary data of charged particles which are used to irradiate mammalian cells in vitro has been employed … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMoments of Order Statistics from Nonidentically Distributed Three Parameters Beta typeI and Erlang Truncated Exponential VariablesA. A. Jamjoom, Z. A. AL-SaiaryProblem statement: Moments of order statistics of independent non-identically distributed (INID) random variables is not an easy subject to deal with for continuous distributions. One is forced to use messy algebraic calculations (whether one uses permanents or not). This was the motivation behind this study. In this study the moments of order statistics arising from independent nonidentically distributed three parameters … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,373 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimization of Cutting Parameters Based on Surface Roughness and Assistance of Workpiece Surface Temperature in Turning ProcessAdeel H. Suhail, N. Ismail, S. V. Wong, N. A. Abdul JalilProblem statement: In machining operation, the quality of surface finish is an important requirement for many turned workpieces. Thus, the choice of optimized cutting parameters is very important for controlling the required surface quality. Approach: The focus of present experimental study is to optimize the cutting parameters using two performance measures, workpiece surface temperature and surface roughness. Optimal cutting parameters … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 12,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Geometry and Dimensionless Parameters on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Closed–end Oscillating Heat-pipe at Vertical PositionS. Rittidech, K. PhalasinThis heat transfer characteristics of a closed-end oscillating heat-pipe (CEOHP) depend on a number of parameters. They are the number of turns, inner diameter of the tube, aspect ratio and the dimensionless parameters of heat transfer. The CEOHPs used to employ a copper tube with inner diameter of 0.66, 1.09 and 2.03 mm. The lengths of the evaporator, adiabatic and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 6,642 accessesView PDFCite
