Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreliminary Studies Aimed at the Re-Opening of Pestarena Gold Mine (North-Western Alps, Italy)Andrea Giuliani, Giuseppe Mandrone, Piergiorgio RossettiGold, among all conventional metals subject to a progressive increase in value in the international market, has jumped powerfully into the spotlight during all economic crises. This contingency led to reconsider the dismissing process of some Italian mining sites and in particular at Pestarena- in the Anzasca Valley near Macugnaga (NW Alps) -the most important historical gold mine in the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 1 Sep 2015 · 7,953 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS: HOW TO UNDERSTAND SUCH DIVERSE AND SO ENTANGLED PHYSIOPATHOLOGY?Carlos Henrique Melo Reis, Marco Orsini, Marco Antônio Araujo Leite et al.When in 1865, JeanMartin Charcotreported patients with progressive muscular atrophysuperimposedwith spasticity of inexorable evolution as result of combinedlesions of the anterior horn and lateral column of the spinal cord, hecertainly inaugurated an attempt on the comprehension of one of the mostcomplexes neurological clinical conditions, which until today persists withimmense voids on their comprehension, regardless of the enormous advancesachieved. Astime went … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 16 Feb 2015 · 7,149 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractON THE CHALLENGES OF THE USE AND INTEGRATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCESMariano MartínOverview: Although renewable energy sources are plentiful, their availability is highly volatile in time and distributed across regions while and the processes that transform them into useful power or chemicals are underdeveloped. In this work we discuss on the scope for the use and integration of renewable energy sources and the future development of the alternatives. Energy, the sources and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 11 Sep 2014 · 7,540 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 abstractA MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS OF THE INCLUSION OF INSTITUTIONAL BETTING FUNDS INTO STOCK MARKET: THE CASE OF TECHNICAL AND FUNDAMENTAL PAYOFF MODELS IN HORSERACE BETTINGCraig George Leslie Hopf, Gurudeo Anand TularamHorserace win and place returns have yet to be considered seriously as portfolio inputs in financial trading markets. However there exist technical and fundamental stochastic models of parametric and nonparametric distribution that appear to optimize expected returns from win and place investing in the horserace wagering market. In this study, a complex number optimization technique is introduced and applied to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 23 Aug 2014 · 6,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMULTI-STATE MODELS OF HIV/AIDS BY HOMOGENEOUS SEMI-MARKOV PROCESSZelalem Getahun DessieMulti-state stochastic models are useful tools for studying complex dynamics such as chronic diseases. The purpose of this study is to determine factors associated with the progression between different stages of the disease and to model the progression of HIV/AIDS disease of an individual patient under ART follow-up using semi-Markov processes. A sample of 1456 patients has been taken from … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 11 Aug 2014 · 8,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTRACKING THE POSITION OF MULTIPLE HUMAN GESTURES USING CONTOUR MAPPING ALGORITHMT. S. Arulananth, T. Jayasingh, S. RaviThis study relates to a method for determining the position variation (for example a moving object, facial gesture tracking) using markers. The movement is determined based on the periodic frames captured using a camera. The experimental results show that this algorithm can accurately segment human movements from complex background and can greatly reduce the computational workload with less storage memory, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 22 May 2014 · 6,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost-Effective Wire-Harness Model by Using Polymer Optical FiberMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Farshad Nasimi KhamenehIn the past decade automotive industries faced the exponential increase of in-vehicle electronic devices. The hydraulic systems are replacing with sophisticate electronic systems. Market demands for exploiting new in-vehicle technologies such as multimedia systems, internet access, GPS, Mobile communication, internal private network; engine, body and power train intelligent control and monitoring systems are increasing daily. These new needs make the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 25 Jun 2013 · 7,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractREPRESENTING MARKOV CHAINS WITH TRANSITION DIAGRAMSFarida KachapovaStochastic processes have many useful applications and are taught in several university programmes. Students often encounter difficulties in learning stochastic processes and Markov chains, in particular. In this article we describe a teaching strategy that uses transition diagrams to represent a Markov chain and to re-define properties of its states in simple terms of directed graphs. This strategy utilises the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 17 May 2013 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerioperative Care of Elderly Surgical PatientsAly SaberAdvancing age is characterized by functional impairment of the many regulatory processes that provide integration between organs and therefore, may lead failure to maintain homeostasis under conditions of physiological stress. There are two main factors helping to identify the high risk for surgery. The first relates to the type of surgery and the second to the scope of cardiopulmonary functional … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2013 · 8,008 accessesView PDFCite
