Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstruction and Application of a Statistical Test for Coefficient of Variation on Normal DistributionsSolly Matshonisa Seeletse, Gezani Richman MiyambuIn this study a novel statistical test is derived for the Coefficient of Variation (CV) under normal distributions. This is a newly derived test with value to engineering sciences in aspects of production of accurate items. The CV can measure the precision of a measuring instrument, among other applications. In order to determine instrument reliability, start by generating measures using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 11 · 11 Nov 2017 · 7,850 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Dimensional Investigation of Mode I Stress Intensity Factor Variations in Crack Front Using Finite Element MethodM. M. MirsayarOverall failure may occur in many engineering structures due to the initiation and growth of cracks. Stress intensity factors are extensively used to investigate crack growth in Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM). In many cracked specimens, the stress singularity varies through the thickness and therefore, investigation of stress intensity factor variation in crack front and determination of its maximum value … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,331 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Dimensions Design Components for the Rectangular Indirect Resistance Electrical FurnacesSalah K. JawadProblem statement: The objective of this study was to study the Indirect Resistance Electrical Furnaces (IREF) based on analytical and experimental analyses. The analytical analysis focused on a constant set of equations representing the internal and external flow of heat energy in the furnace, which demonstrated, relatively with the surface area of walls, heat transferring inside the furnace chamber to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,429 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Daily and Monthly Results of Three Evapotranspiration Models in Tropical Zone: A Case StudySeyed Reza Saghravani, Sa’ari Mustapha, Shaharin Ibrahim, Elias RandjbaranProblem statement: Evapotranspiration (ET) has crucial role in agricultural activity, water management and hydraulic engineering. Recently many forms of the equation have been applied for estimating daily and monthly evapotranspiration around the world. Approach: In this study, the daily and monthly ET was estimated by Penman, Penman-Monteith (P&M) and Hargreaves equation to evaluate general relationships for estimating monthly and daily … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Design Strategy for Volumetric Efficiency Improvement in a Multi-cylinder Stationary Diesel Engine and its Validity under Transient Engine OperationP. Seenikannan, V.M. Periasamy, P. NagarajThis paper proposes an approach to improve engine performance of volumetric efficiency of a multi cylinder diesel engine. A computer simulation model is used to compare volumetric efficiency with instantaneous values. A baseline engine model is first correlated with measured volumetric efficiency data to establish confidence in the engine model's predictions. A derivative of the baseline model with exhaust manifold, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimized XGBoost for Ethereum Fraud Detection: A Cost-Sensitive ApproachSupriya P., Rubah Sheriff, Shreya Padaki et al.In today’s technologically advancing world, many fields from finance to healthcare and education are shifting toward a digital and decentralized format. A significant transformation is underway with the currency of the masses. Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum allow users to generate fungible tokens anonymously through smart contracts. However, these features also facilitate illicit transactions and cybercrimes like fraud, phishing, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 10 Jan 2026 · 2,770 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExperimental Evaluation of Anti-Stripping Additives Mixing in Road Surface Pavement MaterialsTienfuan Kerh, Yu-Min Wang, Yulern LinMost road surfaces in Taiwan are paved with asphalt concrete but the phenomena of rutting, cracking and stripping of the pavement are frequently occurring due to the effects of traffic flow, thermal variation and water erosion caused by rain. In this study, a series of experiments were performed to examine the effectiveness of anti-stripping fillers, which include; rock flour, rock … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEnhancing Quality in Agile Requirement Elicitation ProcessNavneet Kaur, Moshiur Bhuiyan, P.W.C. Prasad et al.Eliciting requirements is one of the key aspects of the software development life cycle. Incorrect determination of the requirements can lead to the failure of the projects. Traditional waterfall method does not accommodate changing requirements easily while agile methodology welcomes the changing requirements even at the later phases of the development life cycle. The aim of the research is to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2019 · 8,610 accessesView PDFCite
