Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of Constitutive Models for Rubber-Like MaterialsAidy Ali, M. Hosseini, B. B. SahariProblem statement: This study reviewed the needs of different constitutive models for rubber like material undergone large elastic deformation. The constitutive models are widely used in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) packages for rubber components. Most of the starting point for modeling of various kinds of elastomer is a strain energy function. In order to define the hyperelastic material behavior, stress-strain … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 21,709 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLot-Sizing Decisions under Trade Credit Depending on the Ordering Quantity in Fuzzy Annual DemandChui-Yu Chiu, Zhi-Ping Lin, Yi LinProblem statement: In reality, there are of various products such as liquids, volatile, medicines and materials, in which the rate of deterioration is very large. However, little attention has been mentioned what the effects of deterioration occur in most inventory systems. Also, the loss of the deterioration should not be neglected as an important issue. Approach: In this study, we … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,763 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Peak Load Electricity Demand Using Statistics and Rule Based ApproachZ. Ismail, A. Yahya, K. A. MahpolProblem statement: Forecasting of electricity load demand is an essential activity and an important function in power system planning and development. It is a prerequisite to power system expansion planning as the world of electricity is dominated by substantial lead times between decision making and its implementation. The importance of demand forecasting needs to be emphasized at all level as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransforming Spatio-Temporal Yield Maps to Classified Management Zone Maps for Efficient Management of Oil PalmAbdul Rahim Anuar, Kah Joh Goh, Tee Bee Heoh, Osumanu Haruna AhmedOne of the major challenges in oil palm plantations today is proper interpretation of yield maps for site-specific management and development of classified management zone maps for its efficient management. A study was conducted on an on-going fertilizer response trial in Sabah, Malaysia to examine the possibility of converting spatio-temporal yield maps of oil palm to classified management zone maps … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,500 accessesView PDFCite
