Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolicy Decisions for a Price Dependent Demand Rate Inventory Model with Progressive Payments SchemeMukesh Kumar, Rajat KumarProblem statement: In this proposed research, we developed an inventory model to formulate an optimal ordering policies for supplier who offers progressive permissible delay periods to the retailer to settle his/her account. We assumed that the annual demand rate as a decreasing function of price with constant rate of deterioration and time-varying holding cost. Shortages in inventory are allowed which … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRestructuring and Expanding Technology Acceptance Model Structural Equation Model and Bayesian ApproachMargaretha Ari Aggorowati, Nur Iriawan, Suhartono, Hasyim GautamaProblem statement: Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is one of models that analyze user behavior to accept and use a new technology. SEM is the most statistical method which use in TAM analysis that provides the estimation strength of all hypothesized relationship between variables in a theoretical model. Consider to employing the standard SEM in TAM analysis which expected large data, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Feb 2012 · 8,359 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Cycle Fatigue Behavior of a Reduced End Plate Moment Connection (T-Stub)Chemin Lim, Wonchang Choi, Emmett A. Sumner, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: In this research, four reduced End Plate Moment Connection (EPMC) specimens (T-stubs) are tested to verify the numerical and theoretical methods for preanalysis of the Low Cycle Fatigue (LCF) behavior of a four-bolt extended unstiffened EPMC. Approach: The T-stub specimens are bolted to a support frame and a monotonic load is applied to the stem plate. Yield line … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 12 Jan 2012 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Modeling of a CI Engine for Optimization of Operating Parameters Such as Compression Ratio, Injection Timing and Injection Pressure for Better Performance and Emission Using Diesel-Diesel Biodiesel BlendsM. Venkatraman, G. DevaradjaneProblem statement: The present work describes a theoretical investigation concerning the performance of a four strokes compression ignition engine, which is powered by alternative fuels in the form of diesel and diesel biodiesel blends. Approach: The developed simulation model used to estimate the cylinder pressure, heat release rate, brake thermal efficiency, brake specific fuel consumption and engine out emissions. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 2 Aug 2011 · 7,727 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Piezoelectric Actuators Based on Bayesian Regularization Back Propagation Neural NetworkWen Wang, Zhu Zhu, Yanding Wei, Zichen ChenProblem statement: Piezoelectric actuator is a kind of key driving components for micropositioning stages, micropumps, micro valves, micro gripper and so on in the fields of micro/nano technology such as integrated circuit manufacturing, precision instruments, ultra precision fabrication, biomedical manipulation. It has lots of advantages including high stiffness, fast response times, less heat generating, low power consumption and large force … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Wholistic Ethical Litmus of Leadership: A Practical Non-Linear Dynamics and Chaos Based Leadership ModelLynn L. Adams, Nathanael L. AdamsProblem statement: Management is generally easy to define and measure. And, good managers tend to have many of the same characteristics and skill sets. Great leaders, on the other hand, have fewer shared characteristics. Some great leaders are great orators, for example, and yet many other great leaders are terrible public speakers. Great leaders tend to be very intuitive, but … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 27 May 2011 · 7,876 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Efficiency Measurement of Parallel Production Systems: A Non-radial Data Envelopment Analysis ModelAli Ashrafi, Azmi Bin Jaafar, Mohd Rizam Abu Bakar, Lai Soon LeeProblem statement: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric technique for measuring the relative efficiency of a set of production systems or Decision Making Units (DMU) that have multiple inputs and outputs. Sometimes, DMUs have a parallel structure, in which systems composed of parallel units work individually; the sum of their own inputs/outputs is the input/output of the system. For … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 9,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Enhanced Russell Measure of Super-Efficiency for Ranking Efficient Units in Data Envelopment AnalysisAli Ashrafi, Azmi Bin Jaafar, Lai Soon Lee, Mohd Rizam Abu BakarProblem statement: Conventional Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) helps decision makers to discriminate between efficient and inefficient Decision Making Units (DMUs). However, DEA does not provide more information about the efficient DMUs. Super-efficiency DEA model can be used in ranking the performance of efficient DMUs. Because of the possible infeasibility of radial super-efficiency DEA model, the ranking has been limited to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime Series Forecasting by using Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average: Subset, Multiplicative or Additive ModelSuhartonoProblem statement: Most of Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) models that used for forecasting seasonal time series are multiplicative SARIMA models. These models assume that there is a significant parameter as a result of multiplication between nonseasonal and seasonal parameters without testing by certain statistical test. Moreover, most popular statistical software such as MINITAB and SPSS only has facility … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 18,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Tourist Arrivals in Destination Countries: An Application to Australian TourismS. A.H. Shobeiri Nejad, Gurudeo Anand TularamProblem statement: Little study is evident of mathematical modeling regarding tourist arrivals in South East Queensland of Australia. In this study the Bulter conceptual destination life cycle and product life cycle frameworks are used to develop an overall determinant mathematical model of Australian tourist arrivals. The model will be calibrated using real Australian data. A more complex dynamic is also … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,915 accessesView PDFCite
