Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelf-Perceived Entrepreneurship Skills for Undergraduates of Private University in MalaysiaLeow Meng Chew, Lau Siong Hoe, Tan Choo Kim, Lillian Wang Yee KiawThis study was conducted on a random group of undergraduates in one of the private university in Malaysia to assess the self-perceived entrepreneurial skills of the undergraduates. As there was no standard instrument for this purpose, a simple questionnaire consisting of twelve questions was devised and used. The results were analyzed and reported by running the data in a few … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 3 Jun 2016 · 7,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Factors used by Farmers to Manage Risk. A Case Study on Italian FarmsAntonella Pontrandolfi, Fabian Capitanio, Felice Adinolfi, Barry GoodwinThe study analyses the strategies Italian farmers use to cope with the risks that face their production. We develop cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses as well as analyses of correlation that underline the main differences between the way farms adapt their structure and management towards risk. The expected output is an analysis of farms’ approach to risk management in relation to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 26 Apr 2016 · 7,638 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship Pattern of Soil and Water Quality in Sustaining Natural Feed Stocks and the Life of Milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal, 1775): The Case study on a Traditional Pond in Kedungpeluk Village, Candi, Sidoarjo, East Java, IndonesiaMuhammad Musa, Uun Yanuhar, SoemarnoTraditional aquaculture activities in Kedungpeluk are currently facing the problem of low Survival (SR) and slow growth. The purpose of this study is to examine the development of soil and water quality as well as the behavior of soil and water quality parameters, which act as a limiting factor and determinant of the quality of natural food and fish life … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2016 · 7,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneral Linear Models in a Missing Outcome Environment of Clinical Trials Incorporating with Splines for Time-Invariant Continuous AdjustmentMinjeong Park, Dejian Lai, Xianglin L. Du et al.Missing data is a common occurrence in longitudinal studies of health care research. Although many studies have shown the potential usefulness of current missing analyses, e.g., (1) Complete Case (CC) analysis; (2) imputation methods such as Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF), multiple imputations, Expectation-Maximization algorithm approach; and (3) methods using all available data such as linear mixed model and generalized … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 18 Aug 2015 · 7,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSedimentology and Ichnology of Late Oligocene Delta Front Reservoir Sandstone Deposit, Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Niger DeltaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiSedimentological and ichnological study of cored reservoir sands correlated with wireline logs between two wells, 0.8 km distance apart along dip direction, enabled vertical and cross sectional facies variability assessment aimed at determining intra sand-body continuity in longitudinal or down-dip direction; and sub-environments of deposition and factors that controlled depositional processes. Ten lithofacies described 62 meters cores of the reservoir … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 30 Jul 2015 · 7,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Interaction between the Lining of a TBM Tunnel and the Ground Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe support used when a tunnel is excavated by a shielded TBM is complex because it consists of two different materials: A concrete segmental lining and a filler annulus between the lining and the tunnel wall. A detailed analysis of the behavior of such a support system requires a three-dimensional numerical modeling and should also consider the presence of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Jun 2015 · 7,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFROM DATA MINING AND KNOWLEDGE DISCOVERY TO BIG DATA ANALYTICS AND KNOWLEDGE EXTRACTION FOR APPLICATIONS IN SCIENCESubana Shanmuganathan"Data mining" for "knowledge discovery in databases" and associated computational operations first introduced in the mid-1990 s can no longer cope with the analytical issues relating to the so-called "big data". The recent buzzword big data refers to large volumes of diverse, dynamic, complex, longitudinal and/or distributed data generated from instruments, sensors, Internet transactions, email, video, click streams, noisy, structured/unstructured … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 20 Jan 2015 · 8,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF TWISTED RATIO ON FLOW STRUCTURE, HEAT TRANSFER AND THERMAL IMPROVEMENT IN A CIRCULAR TUBE WITH SINGLE TWISTED TAPEWithada Jedsadaratanachai, Amnart BoonloiThe research presents a numerical analysis of laminar fully developed periodic flow and heat transfer in a constant temperature-surfaced circular tube with single twisted tape inserted. The twisted tape is introduced and inserted in the middle of the tested tube. The effects of twisted ratios (y/W = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6) are presented for Reynolds number (Re) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractButyrate and Subacute Ruminal Acidosis Affect Abundance of Membrane Proteins Involved with Proton and Short Chain Fatty Acid Transport in the Rumen Epithelium of Dairy CowsAnne Hermen Laarman, Louis Dionissopoulos, Ousama AlZahal et al.The objective of this study was to elucidate the effects of butyrate on the Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA) membrane transport proteins and proton membrane transport proteins in the rumen epithelium. Sixteen mid-lactation cows were fed a 44% Non-Fibre Carbohydrate (NFC) diet and divided into a control treatment and a butyrate treatment. For 7 days, the cows on the control … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2013 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCHANGE OVER TIME IN THE HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS RISK PERCEPTIONS OF YOUTHAnn M. Beutel, Kermyt G. AndersonAlthough the vulnerability of young people to HIV/AIDS continues to be a serious concern in South Africa, no research has used a representative sample of South African youth to examine whether individual Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) risk perceptions change over time and, if they do, what factors are associated with change. Using data from the Cape Area Panel Study, a … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Apr 2013 · 8,253 accessesView PDFCite
