Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleVariable Neighborhood Simplex Search Methods for Global Optimization ModelsPongchanun LuangpaiboonProblem statement: Many optimization problems of practical interest are encountered in various fields of chemical, engineering and management sciences. They are computationally intractable. Therefore, a practical algorithm for solving such problems is to employ approximation algorithms that can find nearly optimums within a reasonable amount of computational time. Approach: In this study the hybrid methods combining the Variable Neighborhood Search … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2012 · 6,510 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Comparison of the Bayesian and Other Methods for Estimation of Reliability Function for Burr-XII DistributionSafaa Ali Nasir, Nashaat Jaisam Al-AnberProblem statement: The Burr-XII distribution has been widely used especially in the modeling of life time event data. It provides a statistical model which has a wide variety of application in many areas and the main advantage is its ability in the context of life time event among other distributions. The conventional maximum likelihood method is the usual way to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNew Approaches to Ancient Crypto-Steganography MethodsA. Joseph Raphael, V. SundaramProblem statement: The requirement and ability to hide information from others has existed in the world for centuries. Cryptography and steganography are the most commonly used techniques for information sharing. The science of securing a data by encryption is cryptography whereas the method of hiding secret messages in other media is Steganography, so that the secret’s very existence is concealed. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 4 Nov 2011 · 8,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDeveloping a Computer Program for the Methods of Radius-Estimating Techniques for Horizontal CurvesAsma Th. Ibraheem, Fatin JananProblem statement: This study discusses the development of computer software of two phases. First phase contains the calculations of all curve elements of the four types of the horizontal curve and second phase contains the modeling of the ten methods of estimating the radius of the horizontal curve. Approach: The program is named as HCRET, which stands for Horizontal Curves … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 8,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstimation Methods for Multicollinearity Proplem Combined with High Leverage Data PointsMoawad El-Fallah, Abd El-SallamProblem statement: Least Squares (LS) method has been the most popular method for estimating the parameters of a model due to its optimal properties and ease of computation. LS estimated regression may be seriously affected by multicollinearity which is a near linear dependency between two or more explanatory variables in the regression models. Although LS estimates are unbiased in the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 18 May 2011 · 7,617 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEfficacy and Characteristics of different Methods of Coccidiosis Infection in Broiler ChickensM.A. Elmusharaf, H.E. Mohamed, A. Alhaidary, A.C. BeynenProblem statement: Different methods of experimental infection of broiler chickens with Eimeria species have been described in the literature. These methods had not been compared and contrasted so as to contribute to the selection of the most appropriate model of coccidiosis in broiler chickens. Identifying such a model was important to speed up the screening of potential coccidiostatics. Approach: In … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,839 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalytical Investigation of Hyperbolic Equations via He's MethodsD.D. Ganji, M. Amini, A. KolahdoozPerturbation methods depend on a small parameter which is difficult to be found for real-life nonlinear problems. To overcome this shortcoming, two new but powerful analytical methods were introduced to solve nonlinear heat transfer problems in this Letter, one is He's Variational Iteration Method (VIM) and the other is the Homotopy-Perturbation Method (HPM). Nonlinear hyperbolic equations were used as examples … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Ibuprofen and Paracetamol in Binary Mixture Using Chemometric-Assisted Spectrophotometric MethodsWafaa S. HassanThree methods are presented for simultaneous determination of ibuprofen and paracetamol without previous separation. The first method depends on first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero-crossing measurement. The first derivative amplitudes at 230 and 290 nm were selected for the assay of ibuprofen and paracetamol, respectively. The second method depends on first derivative of the ratio-spectra by measurements of the amplitudes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,199 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Metoprolol and Felodipine in Binary Mixture Using Chemometric-Assisted Spectrophotometric and High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic-UV MethodsHesham Salem, Ola M. AbdallahFour methods were developed for simultaneous determination of metoprolol and felodipine without previous separation. In the first method both drugs were determined using first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero crossing measurement at 222 and 235 nm for metoprolol and felodipine, respectively. The second method depends on first derivative of the ratios spectra by measurements of the amplitudes at 250.1 nm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,025 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Canadian Regulations and Remediation Methods for Diesel Oil Contaminated SoilsD. G. Rushton, A E. Ghaly, K. MartinellDiesel fuel released into the environment can contaminate ground water, degrade potable water supplies and cause the collapse of fisheries. They are toxic to both animals and humans and can affect the liver, lungs, kidneys, and nervous system leading to cancer as well as immunological and reproductive effects. The objectives of this study were to review current Canadian regulations pertaining … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 8,758 accessesView PDFCite
