Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemediation of Diesel Contaminated Soils Using Surfactants: Coulumn StudyE. Salehian, A. Khodadadi, B. HosseiniThis study presents the experimental remediation studies of diesel contaminated soil with Sodium Deducible Sulfate (SDS) as surfactants using column tests. Sandy selected soil had the grain size distribution of # 40 meshes to the # 200 mesh range. The soil columns were contaminated with adequate diesel amount to achieve the concentration of 10000 and 20000 ppm in soil. 0.1, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Jun 2012 · 8,325 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Selected Properties of Starchy Vegetables on Grating and Slicing Production RateLok Chung Yee, M.K. Siti Mazlina, B.T. Hang TuahPrediction on the output of grating and slicing of starchy vegetables are important prior to design or develop the particular food plant. The production rate of grating and slicing products could be affected by the properties of starchy vegetables. In this study, two selected properties which hardness and moisture content are studied. Hardness of selected starchy vegetables was measured using … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2012 · 7,669 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArtificial Neural Network Based Rotor Capacitive Reactance Control for Energy Efficient Wound Rotor Induction MotorK. Ranjith Kumar, S. Palaniswami, K. Siva KumarProblem statement: The Rotor reactance control by inclusion of external capacitance in the rotor circuit has been in recent research for improving the performances of Wound Rotor Induction Motor (WRIM). The rotor capacitive reactance is adjusted such that for any desired load torque the efficiency of the WRIM is maximized. The rotor external capacitance can be controlled using a dynamic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 26 May 2012 · 7,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetention Pond Sediment Accumulation Prediction using Monte Carlo SimulationSupiah Shamsudin, Abd Rashid Mohd Darom, Irma Norazurah Mohamad, Azmi Ab RahmanProblem statement: A study in Malaysia had been carried out to predict the sediment accumulation in urban detention ponds. Suspended sediment is pollutant of primary concern to the river that results in adverse environmental effect. Detention pond becomes a practical approach to this problem. Suspended sediment that settled in stormwater detention pond, can bring effect to the detention pond functions. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 7,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParameter Estimation for the Double Pareto DistributionFaris M. Al-AthariProblem statement: The double Pareto distribution appeared most often as model for variety of fields, including archaeology, biology, economics, environmental science, finance and physics. The distribution exhibits Paretian power-law behavior in both tails. The family of double Pareto distributions has recently been proposed for modeling growth rates such as annual gross domestic product, stock prices, foreign currency exchange rates and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2011 · 8,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Programmable Gate Arrays based Design, Implementation and Delay Study of Braun's MultipliersMuhammad H. Rais, Mohammed H. Al MijalliProblem statement: Parallel array multipliers are required to achieve high execution speed for Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications. Approach: The purpose of this article is to investigate Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) implementation of standard Braun’s multipliers on Spartan-3AN, Virtex-2, Virtex-4 and Virtex-5 FPGAs using Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware Description Language (VHDL). The delay study was analyzed using … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 22 Oct 2011 · 6,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplications of Conditional Value at Risk to Full Truckload Pricing Under Demand and Service Time UncertaintiesThitima Wonginta, Sompong SirisoponsilpProblem statement: Pricing is one of the fundamental management decisions required by a truckload carrier. Traditional pricing based on an average all relevant costs including fixed and variable costs is not capable of providing adequate margins that prevent losses during operation uncertainties inherent in truckload operation including demand variability and variation in service times. Approach: This study utilizes Conditional Value … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2011 · 8,336 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Foam Density on Specific Energy Absorption of Rectangular Steel TubesNirut Onsalung, Chawalit Thinvongpituk, Kulachate PainthongProblem statement: In general, the automotive structure is targeted to absorb high impact energy with least mass as much as possible. This is in order to limit the fuel consumption. Therefore, various techniques to increase the energy absorption with less mass increment have been studied for years. One of those techniques is by filling foam in the tube. This study … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinematic Comparison of Successful and Unsuccessful Instep Kick in Indoor SoccerNaghme Gheidi, Heydar SadeghiProblem statement: Kicking is one of the most important skills in indoor soccer. Kicking accuracy is an important component of this skill. The instep kick is often used when tacking a penalty kicks, as a combination of increased ball speed and kick accuracy can be maintained. The purpose of this research was to compare selected kinematic parameters of the kicking … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of the Bayesian and Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Weibull DistributionAl Omari Mohammed Ahmed, Hadeel Salim Al-Kutubi, Noor Akma IbrahimProblem statement: The Weibull distribution has been widely used especially in the modeling of lifetime event data. It provides a statistical model which has a wide variety of applications in many areas, and the main advantage is its ability in the context of lifetime event, to provide reasonably accurate failure analysis and failure forecasts especially with extremely small samples.
