Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Banana (AA) Diploids with Contrasting Levels of Black and Yellow Sigatoka ResistanceClaudia Fortes Ferreira, Sebastiao Oliveira Silva, Nivia Paula Damasceno Sobrinho et al.Most banana cultivars are susceptible to many diseases, whereas Sigatoka leads to greatest yield losses. One of the strategies to overcome this disease is thorough banana genetic breeding which consists in the obtainment of improved (AA) diploids which are then crossed with triploids obtaining (AAAB) tetraploid disease resistant bananas also presenting other important agronomic characteristics. The prior knowledge of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDuration Modeling in Undergraduate Econometrics Curriculum via ExcelIsmail H. GencThe main goal of an Econometrics course is to prepare students for more advanced levels of study and make them able to cope with the empirical problems they are likely to face. In recent years, there has been a tendency to purge merely theoretical topics from the econometric textbooks by including only time honored methods. Survival analysis, however, has so … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFourier Series With Spectral and Wave Number DecompositionJung-Hua Chou, Raylin WuIn this study, the generic nature of Fourier series is pointed out and the requirement of dimensional homogeneity for physical systems is emphasized. By suitable application of non-dimensional variables, both time versus frequency and spatial versus wave number decomposition of Fourier series are included properly to put the physics involved into the right physical meanings. Furthermore, the high frequency noise … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDepth Estimation of 2-D Magnetic Anomalous Sources by Using Euler Deconvolution MethodM. G.E. Dawi, Liu Tianyou, Shi Hui, Luo DapengEuler deconvolution method is the method of depth estimation which is best suited for anomalies caused by isolating and multiple anomalous sources. In the present study, algorithmic programs based on generalizing linear inverse theory, uses a least square sense to solve for Euler’s equation is being written. The Euler technique that can estimate the location of a simple body from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExplicit Finite Difference Solution of Heat Transfer Problems of Fish Packages in PrecoolingA. S. Mokhtar, K. A. Abbas, M.M.H. Megat Ahmad et al.The present work aims at finding an optimized explicit finite difference scheme for the solution of problems involving pure heat transfer from the surfaces of Pangasius Sutchi fish samples suddenly exposed to a cooling environment. Regular shaped packages in the form of an infinite slab were considered and a generalized mathematical model was written in dimensionless form. An accurate sample … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving Linear Programming Problems on the Parallel Virtual Machine EnvironmentJrJung Lyu, Hsing Luh, Ming-Chang LeeThis study developed a parallel algorithm to efficiently solve linear programming models. The proposed algorithm utilizes the Dantzig-Wolfe Decomposition Principle and can be easily implemented in a general distributed computing environment. The analytical performance of the well-known method, including the speedup upper bound and lower bound limits, was derived. Numerical experiments are also provided in order to verify the complexity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Iterative Algorithms with Accelerate Convergence for Solving Implicit Difference EquationsQing-Fu Liu, Wei-Jun Zhong, Mancho ManevThis study focuses on the solution of implicit difference equations, which are very difficult to compute in parallel for the diffusion equation. For improving the convergence rates and the properties of gradual-approach convergence of Segment-Classic-Implicit-Iterative (SCII) and Segment-Crank-Nicolson-Iterative (SCNI) algorithms realizing efficient iterative computation in parallel by segmenting grid domains, SCII and SCNI algorithms with accelerated convergence are studied and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 6,799 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStandard Abundance Distribution of Elements in the Universe and Magic Numbers with Boltzmann ProbabilityFrederick Osman, Heinrich HoraThe decay of the standard abundance distribution of elements in the Universe for heavy elements has well-know maxima near magic numbers of the nuclear shell model and deep minima in between. Combining the maxima as a generation probability N (Z) on the proton number Z of the nuclides, a Boltzmann probability shows decay N (Z) = N’ exp (-Z/Z’). The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 7,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmall Business Critical Success/Failure Factors In Developing Economies: Some Evidences From BotswanaZelealem T. Temtime, J. PansiriAlthough the discovery of diamond has propelled Botswana from one of the poorest countries in 1966 to its current economic status as a middle-income country, the country still faces the problems of economic diversification, employment creation, income generation and distribution and poverty alleviation. Governmental and non- Governmental organizations have put many efforts on the development of small and medium Enterprises … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 9,322 accessesView PDFCite
