Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptical and Physical Properties of Bismuth Borate Glasses Doped With Dy3+Pichet Limsuwan, Jakrapong Kaewkhao, Parnuwat Chimalawong, Smit InsiripongThis study reports on physical and optical properties of Dy3+ doped bismuth borate glass. The glasses containing Dy3+ in (70-x)B2O3:30Bi2O3:xDy2O3 (where x = 0.0-2.5 mol%) have been prepared by melt-quenching method. In order to understand the role of Dy2O3 in these glasses, the density, molar volume and optical spectra were investigated. The results show that molar volume of the glasses … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,355 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Performance Metric for Building an Optimized ClassifierMohammad Hossin, Md Nasir Sulaiman, Aida Mustapha, Norwati MustaphaProblem statement: Typically, the accuracy metric is often applied for optimizing the heuristic or stochastic classification models. However, the use of accuracy metric might lead the searching process to the sub-optimal solutions due to its less discriminating values and it is also not robust to the changes of class distribution. Approach: To solve these detrimental effects, we propose a novel … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Ensemble Method for Regression via Classification ProblemsSami M. Halawani, Ibrahim A. Albidewi, Amir AhmadProblem statement: Regression via Classification (RvC) is a method in which a regression problem is converted into a classification problem. A discretization process is used to covert continuous target value to classes. The discretized data can be used with classifiers as a classification problem. Approach: In this study, we use a discretization method, Extreme Randomized Discretization (ERD), in which bin … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2011 · 7,383 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of the Optimum Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger for a Condenser of Vapor-Compression Refrigeration CycleP. Yeunyongkul, P. Sakulchangsatjatai, P. TerdtoonProblem statement: This study theoretically investigated applying heat pipe as a heat exchanger in the condenser of vapor compression refrigeration system for sustainable well-being. Split-type air conditioner for residential propose was considered. To reduce pressure drop and recover heat from the condensing process of the refrigeration cycle, this investigation tried to use Closed Loop Oscillating Heat Pipe (CLOHP) instead of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,631 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Sense of Progression and Cognitive Distance on Path Choice and Walking Behavior While Aiming To Reach DestinationMohammad Paydar, Samira RamezaniProblem statement: Studies focused on walking behavior have indicated the relationship of different factors of built environment with walking to reach destination and walking for recreation. Furthermore, according to literature on path choice behavior, there is a relationship between walking behavior and path choice of pedestrians. Empirical studies on path choice behavior have also shown that the effects of different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Novel Fidelity Digital Watermarking Based on Adaptively Pixel-Most-Significant-Bit-6 in Spatial Domain Gray Scale Images and RobustMehemed Bashir Aliwa, Tarek El-Ahmady El-Tobely, Mahmood M. Fahmy et al.The digital watermarking technology is a way to apply digital information hiding techniques and prevent malicious and non-malicious attacks to detect hidden information. Problem statement: The problems in digital watermarking is that the three requirements of imperceptibility, capacity and robustness that are must be satisfied but they almost conflict with each other, accordingly there are tradeoff between fidelity and robustness. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Separable Logarithmic Algorithm for Non-Linear OptimizationAbbas Y. Al-Bayati, Hawraz N. JabbarProblem statement: The idea of this study stemmed from the fact that most of the currently used optimization algorithms use a local quadratic representation of the objective function. It also arisen from the fact that the objective function may not be represented adequately by quadratic functions and the global minimizer may be obtained for objective functions. So, in this study, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Calculating Activity Slack in Stochastic Project NetworksGary MitchellProblem statement: Identifying critical tasks in a project network is easily done when task times are deterministic, but doing so under stochastic task times is problematic. The few methods that have been proposed contain serious drawbacks which lead to identifying critical tasks incorrectly, leaving project managers without the means to (1) identify and rank the most probable sources of project … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Response Evaluation of Moment Resistant Frame with Built-Up Column SectionMohammad Ebrahimi, Hesam Sharifian, Mohammad AhangarProblem statement: Moment Resisting Frame (MRF) is widely used as lateral resisting systems when sufficient ductility and deformability are to be met. Response of these structures is strictly dependent upon behavior of their joints, whereas the analysis of steel moment resisting frames generally has been performed without considering the accurate connection behavior. Approach: In this study Finite Element (FE) models … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment or the EnvironmentSumit Kumar JaiswalProblem statement: The relationship between trade and environment is very complex though development and environment are invariably related to each other. There is a close relationship between development and conservation of the environment. The relationship between the WTO and MEAs is reducing and eliminating barriers to trade in environmental goods and services. This relation was acknowledged in 1972 Stockholm Conference … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,417 accessesView PDFCite
