Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Financial Market Annual Performance Measures: Further Evidence+Edward J. Lusk, Michael Halperin, Atanas Tetikov, Niya StefanovaProblem statement: Forecasting is simple; producing accurate forecasts is the essential task. Experience suggests that financial managers often assume that because models used in forecasting are appropriate that they are effective. This study addresses this assumption. Effective is taken to mean forecasts where the Absolute Percentage Error (APE) is equal to or less than 10%. It has been reported that … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,526 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Solution of Second-Order Linear Fredholm Integro-Differential Equation Using Generalized Minimal Residual MethodElayaraja Aruchunan, Jumat SulaimanProblem statement: This research purposely brought up to solve complicated equations such as partial differential equations, integral equations, Integro-Differential Equations (IDE), stochastic equations and others. Many physical phenomena contain mathematical formulations such integro-differential equations which are arise in fluid dynamics, biological models and chemical kinetics. In fact, several formulations and numerical solutions of the linear Fredholm integro-differential equation of second … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Investigation of an Industrial Robot Arm Control Problem Using Haar Wavelet SeriesS. Nandhakumar, V. Selladurai, S. SekarProblem statement: An error minimization in robot arm dynamics improves operations and performance of production systems. Many contributions have been made in area of robot dynamics since the earliest study more than two decades, but, a number of researchers are still contributing various principles and new techniques for the best use of robots in reality, especially in the field of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simulation Model Estimates of the Intercropping Advantage of an Immature-Rubber, Banana and Pineapple SystemMohamadu Boyie Jalloh, Wan Sulaiman Wan Harun, Jamal Talib et al.Problem statement: Intercropping has been shown to have many advantages but it is fallacious to conclude it is always a better cropping system. Little is known about a new double-hedgerow intercropping of rubber, banana and pineapple in relation to its effects on growth and yield of the component crops when compared to their monocrops. Simulation modeling offers a cheaper and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,003 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPower Enhancement of Weightlifters during Snatch through Reducing Torque on Joints by Particle Swarm OptimizationFirooz Salaami, Nima Jamshidi, Mostafa Rostami, Siamak NajarianIn this research, an athlete's body on sagittal plane in tension phase of snatch weightlifting has been modeled in two dimensions for calculating the generated torques in joints. The error back propagation multi-layer perceptrons has been used for modeling the torque through changing the angular velocity, angular acceleration and absolute angle of each segment. Finally, the torque in joints has … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInput-Output Feedback Linearization Cascade Controller Using Genetic Algorithm for Rotary Inverted Pendulum SystemIraj Hassanzadeh, Saleh Mobayen, Abbas HarifiThe Rotary Inverted Pendulum (RIP) system is a significant classical problem of control engineering which has been investigated in the past decades. This study presents an optimum Input- Output Feedback Linearization (IOFL) cascade controller utilized Genetic Algorithm (GA). Due to the non-minimum phase behavior of the system, IOFL controller leads to unstable internal dynamics. Therefore a cascade structure is proposed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeveling Process of Total Electron Content (TEC) Using Malaysian Global Positioning System (GPS) DataY. Norsuzila, M. Abdullah, M. IsmailThe signals from the satellites of the Navstar Global Positioning System (GPS) travel through the earth's ionosphere on their way to GPS receivers. However, ionospheric delay is one of the main sources of error in GPS. The magnitude of the ionospheric delay is influenced by the Total Electron Content (TEC) along the radio wave path from a GPS satellite to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow-Noise High-Accuracy TOF Laser Range FinderShahram Mohammad Nejad, Saeed OlyaeeThis paper presents a new low-noise high-accuracy laser range finder based on the Time-Of-Flight (TOF) method. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm as a source and a SLIK avalanche photodiode as a detector are used. The optical section of the system including ZnS/MgF2 optical filter, designed by C++ and Zemax software, has been successfully implemented and tested. The quality … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligence System for Software Maintenance Severity PredictionParvinder Singh Sandhu, Sunil Kumar, Hardeep SinghThe software industry has been experiencing a software crisis, a difficulty of delivering software within budget, on time, and of good quality. This may happen due to number of defects present in the different modules of the project that may require maintenance. This necessitates the need of predicting maintenance urgency of the particular module in the software. In this paper, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Application of Carhart Atom Pairs to Predict Anticonvulsant ActivityAlan Talevi, Julian J. Prieto, Luis E. Bruno-Blanch, Eduardo CastroAbout 50 million people in the world suffer from epilepsy, especially in childhood, adolescence and old age. Available treatment fails to control epilepsy in up to 30% of affected people. In developing countries, however, the amount of patients that do not receive adequate treatment climbs up to 75%. Moreover, the new generation of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) causes important central and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,857 accessesView PDFCite
