Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimization of the Geometrical Parameters of a Solar Bubble Pump for Absorption-Diffusion Cooling SystemsN. Dammak, B. Chaouachi, S. Gabsi, M. BourouisProblem statement: The objective of this study was to optimize the geometrical parameters of a bubble pump integrated in a solar flat plate collector. Approach: This solar bubble pump was part of an ammonia/water/helium (NH3/H2O/He) absorption-diffusion cooling system. Results: An empirical model was developed on the basis of momentum, mass, material equations and energy balances. The mathematical model was solved … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 8,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimization of Field Development Scheduling, East Unity Oil Field, SudanTagwa A. Musa, Ahmed A.E. Ibrahin, Guan ZhenLiang, Fei QiIn order to improve the reservoir performance in East Unity oil field Sudan, the studies focused on characterization, modeling and simulation of the actual performance and future development. A model was constructed using a three-phase, three dimensional, black oil simulator (ECLIPSE). In this study a data from East Unity oil field Sudan started production at July 1999 was used to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInventory Models with Power Demand and Inventory-Induced Demand with Holding Cost FunctionsRakesh Prakash Tripathi, Sarla Pareek, Manjit KaurIn real life customers are motivated to buy more if there is more availability of product. In this study, we develop inventory model for inventory dependent demand with different holding cost function. Mathematical formulations are discussed for two situations i.e., power demand rate with inventory dependent holding cost functions and inventory-induced demand rate with time and inventory dependent holding cost … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 6 Apr 2017 · 7,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordNew Strategy to Optimize Lean Supply Chain Design by Meta-HeuristicThi Hong Dang Nguyen, Thien My DaoThis paper aims at presenting one novel quantitative strategy of optimizing the design of Lean supply chain using Meta-Heuristics. While classifying Lean Manufacturing tools in two categories, namely Functional and Tier Lean tools, we propose a new framework to design the Lean supply chain by implementing the former into a 5-echelon Fat supply chain. As the following step, we investigate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2017 · 7,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimization of Biodiesel Production from Spent Palm Cooking Oil Using Fractional Factorial Design Combined with the Response Surface MethodologyS.M. Zakir Hossain, Nahid Sultana, Muhammad Faisal Irfan et al.Fractional Factorial Design (FFD) of the experiments combined with the response surface methodology was used to determine the optimum conditions for the production of biodiesel from Used Cooking Oil (UCO) in a batch reactor. Spent palm olein cooking oil was used as a raw material for biodiesel production as it is commonly used in most of the restaurants in Bahrain. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 22 Nov 2016 · 8,446 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimization of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Freeze-Dried Sea Cucumber Powder with Response Surface Methodology and Its Antioxidant EvaluationYahui Pang, Jianfeng Sun, Qian LiuIn this study, freeze-dried sea cucumber powder was used as raw material and the preparation processing conditions were studied for hydrolysis of sea cucumber powder with neutral protease using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) to obtain a high concentration of sea cucumber polypeptide. The effects of hydrolysis temperature, pH, enzyme dosage and hydrolysis time on the degree of hydrolysis (DH) were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Oct 2016 · 7,435 accessesView PDFCite

GopalThe distributed computations are broadly used in the current world for processing large scale jobs. For data intensive applications with big data, it has recently received a very good attention. A simple programming model that allows easy development of scalable parallel applications to process big data on large clusters was required. In our proposed work the input files will be … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 31 Jan 2014 · 6,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHEURISTIC DISCRETIZATION METHOD FOR BAYESIAN NETWORKSMariana D.C. Lima, Silvia M. Nassar, Pedro Ivo R.B.G. Rodrigues et al.Bayesian Network (BN) is a classification technique widely used in Artificial Intelligence. Its structure is a Direct Acyclic Graph (DAG) used to model the association of categorical variables. However, in cases where the variables are numerical, a previous discretization is necessary. Discretization methods are usually based on a statistical approach using the data distribution, such as division by quartiles. In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 7,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMachining Performance Study on Metal Matrix Composites-A Response Surface Methodology ApproachA. Srinivasan, R. M. Arunachalam, S. Ramesh, J. S. SenthilkumaarProblem statement: Metal Matrix Composites (MMC) have become a leading material among composite materials and in particular, particle reinforced aluminum MMCs have received considerable attention due to their excellent engineering properties. These materials are known as the difficult-to-machine materials because of the hardness and abrasive nature of reinforcement element-like Alumina (Al2O3). Approach: In this study, an attempt has been made … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2012 · 8,024 accessesView PDFCite
