Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Gate to Gate Assessment of Environmental Performance for Production of Crude Palm Kernel Oil Using Life Cycle Assessment ApproachS. Vijaya, A. N. Ma, Y. M. ChooProblem statement: The oil palm industry is an export orientated industry which heavily relies on the world market. In 2007 alone the total export earnings reached RM 45.1 billion. It is essential that the oil palm industry is ready to meet the higher expectation of its overseas customers on the environmental performance of the industry. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,225 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Flutter Derivatives of Bridge Decks in Wind Tunnel Test by Stochastic Subspace IdentificationT. Janesupasaeree, V. BoonyapinyoProblem statement: Flutter derivatives are the essential parameters in the estimations of the flutter critical wind velocity and the responses of long-span cable supported bridges. These derivatives can be experimentally estimated from wind tunnel test results. Generally, wind tunnel test methods can be divided into free decay test and buffeting test. Compared with the free decay method, the buffeting test … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,133 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectricity Load Forecasting based on Framelet Neural Network TechniqueMohammed K. AbdLoad forecasting is very essential to the operation of electricity companies. It enhances the energy-efficient and reliable operation of a power system. This study shows Electricity Load Forecasting modeling based on Framelet Neural Network Technique (FNN) for Baghdad City. Framelet technique is implemented to the time series data, decomposing the data into number of Framelet coefficient signals. The decomposed signals … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplying Simulated Annealing For Optimal Operation of Multi-Reservoir SystemsF. Khodabakhshi, A. R. Ghirian, N. KhakzadThe need to optimize the operation of water reservoirs is an issue that is becoming increasingly a concern for water resources planners in developing countries. This issue particularly becomes more significant in large systems with multiple reservoirs where operation of one reservoir has an impact on the others. In other word, the set of reservoirs in these systems act like … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProof-Carrying Code Based Tool for Secure Information Flow of Assembly ProgramsAbdulrahman Muthana, Abdul Azim Abd Ghani, Ramlan Mahmod, Hasan SelamatProblem statement: How a host (the code consumer) can determine with certainty that a downloaded program received from untrusted source (the code producer) will maintain the confidentiality of the data it manipulates and it is safe to install and execute. Approach: The approach adopted for verifying that a downloaded program will not leak confidential data to unauthorized parties was based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Speech Recognition Using Fusion Techniques and Adaptive FilteringS. A.R. Al-Haddad, S. A. Samad, A. Hussain et al.The study proposes an algorithm for noise cancellation by using recursive least square (RLS) and pattern recognition by using fusion method of Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) and Hidden Markov Model (HMM). Speech signals are often corrupted with background noise and the changes in signal characteristics could be fast. These issues are especially important for robust speech recognition. Robustness is a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Reversible Montgomery Multiplier and Its Application to Hardware CryptographyNoor Muhammed Nayeem, Lafifa Jamal, Hafiz Md. Hasan BabuProblem Statement: Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) of a crypto-processor and microchips leak information through power consumption. Although the cryptographic protocols are secured against mathematical attacks, the attackers can break the encryption by measuring the energy consumption. Approach: To thwart attacks, this study proposed the use of reversible logic for designing the ALU of a crypto-processor. Ideally, reversible circuits do not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency Comparison of Operational and Profitability: A Case of Hong Kong Commercial BanksCheng-Ru Wu, Hui-Yin Tsai, Ya-Mei WangProblem Statement: Traditional DEA models deal with measurements of relative efficiency of DMUs regarding multiple-inputs vs. multiple-outputs. One of the drawbacks of these models is the neglect of intermediate products or linking activities. The objectives of this study were: (i) This research was shown how to use DEA by two stages, with outputs from the first stage becoming inputs in … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,482 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSensitivity Analysis of an Optimal Access Road Location in HillyForest Area: A GIS ApproachMohd I. Hasmadi, J.C. TaylorThere are various models for establishing the efficient forest road allocation and evaluating optimum density of forest roads network for the transport of timber commodity. Most of them are based on the calculation of common timber transport costs and costs for forest roads. Today, forest road design from traditional method continues to be transformed by remote sensing technology and advancement … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Double Layer Grids' Maximum Deflection Using Neural NetworksReza Kamyab Moghadas, Kok Keong ChoongEfficient neural networks models are trained to predict the maximum deflection of two-way on two-way grids with variable geometrical parameters (span and height) as well as cross-sectional areas of the element groups. Backpropagation (BP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural networks are employed for the mentioned purpose. The inputs of the neural networks are the length of the spans, L, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,488 accessesView PDFCite
