Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Co-Rotational 3-Node Shell ElementGil Rama, Dragan Marinkovic, Manfred ZehnGeometric nonlinear FE-analysis of thin-walled shell structures, using a co-rotational formulation and the Cell Smoothed Discrete Shear Gap triangular shell element (CS-DSG3) is presented in this study. The CS-DSG3 element formulation uses the Mindlin-Reissner kinematic hypothesis to include transverse shear effects. In order to avoid locking effects Discrete Shear Gap (DSG) method is applied. In addition, cell based smoothing technique … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 17 Jun 2016 · 8,295 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Penalty Parameter in Penalized Nonlinear Canonical Correlation Analysis by using Cross-ValidationIsamu NagaiThere is Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) as a way to find a linear relationship between a pair of random vectors. However, CCA cannot find a nonlinear relationship between them since the method maximizes the correlation between linear combinations of the vectors. In order to find the nonlinear relationship, we convert the vectors through some known conversion functions like a kernel … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 22 Dec 2015 · 7,661 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Pesticide Residue in Dams and Well Water in Jazan Area, Saudi ArabiaHasan Y. Al-Hatim, Deifalla Alrajhi, Abdul Jabbar Al-RajabThe application of pesticides indoors and on agricultural lands increased dramatically in recent years in the Jazan area (Saudi Arabia) to control termites and the vectors of diseases, such as Rift Valley Fever (RVF) and malaria. This practice increased the potential risk of pesticide contamination of surface water and groundwater. In this study, samples of 44 wells and 3 dams … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 3 Nov 2015 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh Resolution Satellite Images to Reconstruct Recent Evolution of Domitian CoastlinePasquale Maglione, Claudio Parente, Andrea VallarioIn the last decades, combinations of natural and humanfactors have resulted in extensive morphological changes to our coastlines andin many cases have amplified erosion. In order to limit these changes and theirimpact on coastal zone, it is important toplan specific actions; for this purpose detailed cognizance of coastal zone isnecessary. Different and heterogeneous data such as historical and recent maps,remotely … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 7 · 28 Aug 2015 · 7,011 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMAGE RETRIEVAL USING CERTAIN BLOCK BASED DIFFERENCE OF INVERSE PROBABILITY AND CERTAIN BLOCK BASED VARIATION OF LOCAL CORRELATION COEFFICIENTS INTEGRATED WITH WAVELET MOMENTSB. Thenkalvi, S. MurugavalliContent Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is an evolving topic under image processing. Retrieval on medical images plays a vital role in saving mankind. Medical Content Based Image Retrieval (MCBIR) does not stop its work in displaying similar images; it also goes one step further for diagnosis to decide the method of therapy by comparing the query image and database image. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 3 Apr 2014 · 6,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWEEDS IDENTIFICATION USING EVOLUTIONARY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ALGORITHMAhmed M. Tobal, Sahar A. MokhtarIn a world reached a population of six billion humans increasingly demand it for food, feed with a water shortage and the decline of agricultural land and the deterioration of the climate needs 1.5 billion hectares of agricultural land and in case of failure to combat pests needs about 4 billion hectares. Weeds represent 34% of the whole pests while … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 4 Mar 2014 · 7,823 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBi-Level Classification of Color Indexed Image Histograms for Content Based Image RetrievalKarpagam Vilvanathan, Rangarajan RangaswamyThis dissertation proposes content based image classification and retrieval with Classification and Regression Tree (CART). A simple CBIR system (WH) is designed and proved to be efficient even in the presence of distorted and noisy images. WH exhibits good performance in terms of precision, without using any intensive image processing feature extraction techniques. Unique indexed color histogram and wavelet decomposition … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 26 Apr 2013 · 6,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParasitological Prevalence of Bovine Trypanosomosis in Kubo Division of Kwale County of Coastal: Baseline SurveyN. Mbahin, H. Affognon, J. Andoke et al.Prior to field trials of large scale tsetse repellent technology validation in July 2011, a cross-sectional survey of bovine trypanosomosis and its vectors was carried out to know the disease level in Kwale County of Coastal Kenya. A total of 584 adult cattle were examined at ten different Locations. The trypanosome prevalence in cattle with regard to age, sex, location … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2013 · 7,677 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeb Document Segmentation Using Frequent Term Sets for SummarizationChitra Pasupathi, Baskaran Ramachandran, Sarukesi KarunakaranQuery sensitive summarization aims at extracting the query relevant contents from web documents. Web page segmentation focuses on reducing the run time overhead of the summarization systems by grouping the related contents of a web page into segments. At query time, query relevant segments of the web page are identified and important sentences from these segments are extracted to compose … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 19 Dec 2012 · 6,672 accessesView PDFCite
