Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Partial Orientation in [100] Direction on the Magnetic Properties of Co-Ferrite Prepared from Nano ParticlesH. M. El-SayedChemical co-precipitation method was used for the preparation of Co-ferrite nano particles. The particle size was about 18 nm. A magnetic anisotropy of Co-ferrite could be increased by applying an external magnetic field during the pressing of the nano particles before the final sintering. This anisotropy enhanced the squareness and the coercivity of investigated samples. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtension Mechanisms to Support Sustainable Agriculture in Iran ContextMohammad Sadegh AllahyariSustainable agriculture, as a managerial philosophy has risen to meet environmental, economic and social complications. Agricultural extension as a source of information plays an important role for the achievement of sustainable forms of agriculture. In fact, conventional extension system cannot accomplish sustainability in agriculture. The objective of the study was to identify the most appropriate mechanism to support dimensions and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Concentration Levels from the Mina Al-Fahal Refinery in Oman Using Artificial Neural NetworksSabah A. Abdul-Wahab, Saleh M. Al-AlawiIn this investigation, two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models were applied for predicting ground-level sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the Sultanate of Oman in order to provide an early warning advisory for the protection of public health. The objective of the first model (Model I) was to use ANN to predict sulfur dioxide (SO2) levels at certain receptors from the Mina … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,391 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInclusion Identification by Inverse Application of Boundary Element Method, Genetic Algorithm and Conjugate Gradient MethodMahmud Khodadad, Mohsen Dashti ArdakaniCharacterization of the interior of an inhomogeneous body using displacement measurements obtained by conducting a simple tension test was investigated. A homogeneous elastic solid body is assumed to have another solid body with arbitrary shape hidden inside it. The shape and physical properties of this inclusion were unknown. The Boundary Element Method (BEM) coupled with a mete heuristic Genetic Algorithm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelf-Generation ART-1 Neural Network with Gradient-Descent Method Aid for Latin Alphabet RecognitionMbaïtiga ZacharieProblem statement: In this study a self-generation ART-1 neural network that is an efficient algorithm that emulates the self-organizing pattern recognition developed to avoid the stability-plasticity dilemma in competitive networks learning, is presented for Latin alphabet recognition to use in a vision system for road sings recognition. Approach: The first step of our approach deals with the training process where … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,568 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Ibuprofen and Paracetamol in Binary Mixture Using Chemometric-Assisted Spectrophotometric MethodsWafaa S. HassanThree methods are presented for simultaneous determination of ibuprofen and paracetamol without previous separation. The first method depends on first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero-crossing measurement. The first derivative amplitudes at 230 and 290 nm were selected for the assay of ibuprofen and paracetamol, respectively. The second method depends on first derivative of the ratio-spectra by measurements of the amplitudes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVolatility in Malaysian Stock Market: An Empirical Study Using Fractionally Integrated ApproachChin Wen CheongThis study explores the fractionally integrated (FI) time series analysis in Malaysian stock market. Four proxies of latent volatility, namely the absolute return, squared return and range-based (Parkinson and Garman and Klass) volatilities are selected for the empirical studies. In addition, the well-known FI autoregressive conditional variance (ARCH) type model is also taken into account for comparison purposes. Our empirical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,712 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRandom Walk Models Classifications: An Empirical Study for Malaysian Stock IndicesChin Wen CheongThis article studied the Random Walk models introduced by Campbell et al.[2] for Malaysian stock market. The analysis is implemented under the possible drastic economics structural change using an iterative structural change test. After the break-date identification, the random walk hypothesis is tested by multiple variance ratios test in two separate periods. We further examined the serial correlations of return’s … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Three-Microphone Adaptive Noise Canceller for Minimizing Reverberation and Signal DistortionZayed M. RamadanThis paper introduces an adaptive noise canceller (ANC) to improve the system performance in the presence of signal leakage components. The proposed ANC consists of two adaptive filters and three microphones. The first adaptive filter cancels the signal leakage and the second filter cancels the noise. For best results, a least mean squares adaptive algorithm was also introduced and used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSample Selection Analysis of Wage Equation for Women In Ondo State NigeriaSola Olorunfemi, Olorunsola E. OlowofesoThe study analysis wage equation for women in Ondo State Nigeria, in other to identify the determinant factors of their wages. Data collected from 250 women heads of households through a multi-stage random system technique were analyzed. In order to deal with the zero wage problem associated with those who did not work, various single – equation models were applied. … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,563 accessesView PDFCite
