Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCan Grammar Define Similarity of Human Natural Languages?Vladimir Nikolaevich Polyakov, Ivan Sergeevich Anisimov, Elena Andreevna MakarovaThe aim of the present study is to show that similarity of human natural languages can be conveyed not only by phonetic data, but also by grammar. The paper regards the largest typological database WALS and its possibilities in the sphere of genealogic relationship of languages. Using the method of two-objective optimization and data mining, which is new for linguistic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 5 Oct 2016 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCross-Section Optimization of Sandwich-Type Cylindrical Wind Turbine TowersStylianos M. Vernardos, Charis J. GantesAs wind energy is aggressively expanding within the alternative sources' part of modern world's energy pie, the need of addressing various obstacles that limit further wind utilization becomes all the more urgent. From a structural engineering point of view, surmounting the tower-base diameter limitation, dictated by the current transportation capabilities, is one of the industry's primary issues. The concept presented … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 7 Aug 2015 · 7,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcquisition and Research of the p-3C-SiC Epitaxial Layers Based on the 6H-SiC Semi-Insulating SubstratesLebedev Alexander Alexandrovich, S.P. Lebedev, E.V. Bogdanova et al.By now we know almost nothing about works on production of p-3C-SiC. Probably, it is due to the fact that the basic acceptor impurity (aluminium) accumulates on the interfaces of the twins and other structural defects in the 3C film and it is electrically neutral. We managed to produce the highly doped layers p-3C based on the conducting substrates of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 27 May 2015 · 6,466 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLoss Monitoring of Star Topology Sensor Network Based on Scheduling Algorithm for Assessing Structural Health InformationMohammud Ershadul Haque, Mohammud Fauzi Mohammud Zain, Mohammud Abdul Hannan et al.Sensor network is the new invention for assessing civil building structural health information. The new challenge to sensor network: large volume of received data, analyzing result at the computing section, patient coverage area, accuracy and reliability of the system, real time response, optimization development. To cover the entire patient region, sensor topology network is as a key characteristic of Sensor … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 5 Oct 2013 · 6,726 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Resistance to Human Immunodeficiency Virus Protease Inhibitors Using Molecular Mechanics and Machine Learning StrategiesA. Harishchander, D. Alex Anand, Sanjib SenapatiProblem statement: Drug resistance is the most important factor, which influences the failure of current HIV therapies. So, the ability to predict the drug resistance of HIV-1 protease mutants will be useful in developing more effective and longer lasting treatment regimens. Approach: Drug resistance of HIV-1 protease is predicted with two current protease inhibitors (Indinavir and Saquinavir). The problem was … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeuristic Algorithm in Optimal Discrete Structural DesignsAlongkorn Lamom, Thaksin Thepchatri, Wanchai RivepiboonThis study proposes a Heuristic Algorithm for Material Size Selection (HAMSS). It is developed to handle discrete structural optimization problems. The proposed algorithm (HAMSS), Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SA) and the conventional design algorithm obtained from a structural steel design software are studied with three selected examples. The HAMSS, in fact, is the adaptation from the traditional SA. Although the SA … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMINLP Optimization of Mechanical StructuresS. Šilih, T. Žula, Z. Kravanja, S. KravanjaWe presented optimization of mechanical structures, performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization approach. The MINLP is a combined continuous/discrete optimization technique, where a structural topology and standard/discrete sizes are optimized simultaneously with the continuous variables. Ddiscrete binary 0-1 variables were used to express the discrete decisions. For solution of this non-linear, continuous/discrete and non-convex MINLP class of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,125 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Pharmacological Targets Combining Docking and Molecular Dynamics SimulationsIlizaliturri-Flores Ian, Rosas-Trigueros Jorge Luis, Carrillo-Vazquez Jonathan Pablo et al.Studies that include both experimental data and computational simulations (in silico) have increased in number because the techniques are complementary. In silico methodologies are currently an essential component of drug design; moreover, identification and optimization of the best ligand based on the structures of biomolecules are common scientific challenges.
