Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring the Operating Efficiency of Solar Cell Companies in Taiwan with Data Envelopment AnalysisJui-Min HsiaoThis study discusses the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) approach to measure the operating efficiency of solar cell companies. With active and constructive advancement of the government, competition in the solar cell industry became even tenser. When drawing up the competitive strategies, one firm should identify the key indicators of its operating efficiency. This study incorporates three inputs (the number of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 7 Nov 2012 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSequential Multiple Response Optimization for Manufacturing Flexible Printed CircuitPichpimon Kanchanasuttisang, Pongchanun LuangpaiboonProblem statement: Flexible Printed Circuit or FPC, one of automotive electronic parts, has been developed for lighting automotive vehicles by assembling with the LED. The quality performances or responses of lighting vehicles are relied on the circuit width of an FPC and the etched rate of acid solution. According to the current operating condition of an FPC company, the capability … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 12 Mar 2012 · 6,864 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTemperature Effect on Uncooled Semiconductor Laser Diode to the Network Performance SystemMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Nurain Izzati ShuhaimiProblem statement: The characteristics of a laser diode are highly dependent on the temperature of the laser chip. Thus, the effect of temperature on the network performance of uncooled semiconductor laser diode are studied by simulating its equivalent electrical circuit, developed from the rate equations that governing optical components directly into an electrical simulation framework. Approach: The simulations are carried … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2012 · 6,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Diurnally Cyclic Temperature on the Performance of a Continuous Mix Anaerobic DigesterAbdel E. Ghaly, Mariam T. Al HattabProblem statement: Concentrated livestock production is a major contributor to environmental problems through the production of large quantity of husks on relatively small land area. Anaerobic digestion represents a valuable means of cover by these husks into methane while reducing manure pollution problems. Methodology: An experimental apparatus, including data acquisition and control system, was developed and used to investigate the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 19 Jan 2012 · 9,230 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Solenoid Valve for Variable Rate Application SystemSaleh Mufleh Al-Saqer, Ghulam Mubashar HassanProblem statement: The aim of this research was to optimize the performance of solenoid valve used in Variable Rate Application System (VRA) in term of time response. The overall time response is usually divided into four parts i.e., plunger opening time, pressure opening time, plunger closing time and pressure closing time. Approach: The performance and design of the a solenoid … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeighted Centroid Modified Simplex and Linear Constrained Response Surface Optimization Methods for the Xbar-R Chart Variable DeterminationPongchanun LuangpaiboonProblem statement: Although economic Xbar-R chart designs do guarantee the minimal operating cost, they typically have poor levels of statistical performance measures. The obvious limitation of the economic design is that the Type I error rate seems to be very high for many situations and will cause a large number of false alarms. This situation leads to an investigation of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of Foreign Ownership on Firm Performance, Evidence from an Emerging Market: TurkeyAli Osman Gurbuz, Asli AybarsProblem statement: The inflows of foreign direct investment are important sources of finance for developing countries. Due to the increase in the amount of the international flows of capital over the last three decades, the issue of the possible impact of foreign direct investment on the performance of corporations and thus the economy has gained increased attention. The purpose of … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2010 · 15,829 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Self-Tuning Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, Based On Taguchi MethodM. Santhakumar, T. AsokanProblem statement: Conventional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers exhibit moderately good performance once the PID gains are properly tuned. However, when the dynamic characteristics of the system are time dependent or the operating conditions of the system vary, it is necessary to retune the gains to obtain desired performance. This situation has renewed the interest of researchers and practitioners in PID control. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination and Evaluation of Privatization Effects on Financial Performance of Firms in Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE)Hossein Panahian, Hamid AkbarzadehProblem statement: Does privatization process, as form of transferring the control of public (state-owned) companies via Tehran Stock Exchange, effect positively on their financial performance? In this study privatized and public firms were compared during 3 years before and after privatization process from 1994 -2007. Approach: To achieve the purpose of the study, the pre-test and post-test design was used. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 6,932 accessesView PDFCite
