Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing Convergence of the Markov Chain Monte Carlo Method in Multivariate CaseDenismar Alves Nogueira, Thelma Safadi, Daniel Furtado Ferreira, Eric Batista FerreiraThe formal convergence diagnosis of the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is made using univariate and multivariate criteria. In 1998, a multivariate extension of the univariate criterion of multiple sequences was proposed. However, due to some problems of that multivariate criterion, an alternative form of calculation was proposed in addition to the two new alternatives for multivariate convergence criteria. In … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 8 Jan 2013 · 7,019 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbsolute Flux Comparison of Magnetospheric ParticlesMiah M. AdelProblem statement: The calculation of magnetospheric particle flux by dividing the particle count rate by the instrument geometric factor does not take into account the anisotropic pitch angle distribution function. A comparison of particle fluxes measured by different instruments fail to lead to the right comparison. To circumvent the omission of anisotropy of the pitch angle distribution and to make … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2012 · 7,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Optimal Path Management Strategy in Mobile Ad Hoc Network Using Fuzzy and Rough Set TheoryP. Seethalakshmi, M. Joseph Auxilius Jude, G. RajendranProblem statement: Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically forms a network. Most of the existing ad-hoc routing algorithms select the shortest path using various resources. However the selected path may not consider all the network parameters and this would result in link instability in the network. The problems with existing methods are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 15 Oct 2011 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign Based on Intra-Class Correlation CoefficientsRobert Lew, Gheorghe DorosProblem statement: Reliability studies are concerned with the study of "consistency" or "repeatability" of measurements. Often times (but not always) the reliability coefficients are Intra-class Correlation Coefficients (ICC). Depending on the design or the conceptual intent of the study there are three types of intra-class correlation coefficients, termed intra-class correlation coefficients Case 1, 2 and 3, for measuring the reliability … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 18,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Calculating Activity Slack in Stochastic Project NetworksGary MitchellProblem statement: Identifying critical tasks in a project network is easily done when task times are deterministic, but doing so under stochastic task times is problematic. The few methods that have been proposed contain serious drawbacks which lead to identifying critical tasks incorrectly, leaving project managers without the means to (1) identify and rank the most probable sources of project … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Seven-Lump Kinetic Model in the Fluid Catalytic Cracking UnitMehran Heydari, Habib AleEbrahim, Bahram DabirProblem statement: The effective simulation of the Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) operation requires a good understanding of many factors such as, reaction kinetic, fluid dynamics and feed and catalyst effects. Approach: In this model the reactor has been considered as an isothermal riser. The reactions in the riser occur with the fluid and the solids in ideal plug flow. Because … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigations of Two-Layer Earth Parameters at Low Voltage: Measurements and CalculationsRamdan E. Rajab, N. Mohamad Nor, K. RamarProblem statement: The two-layer soil model at low magnitude voltage is assumed to be accurate for the measurement and calculation of the earth resistance of a combined grid-multiple rods electrode. The aim of this study is to measure and calculate the earth resistance of a combined grid-multiple rods electrode buried in a two-layer soil and to confirm the simplicity and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,816 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlteration of the Aquifer Water in Hyperarid Climate, by Wastewater: Cases of Groundwater from Ouargla (Northern Sahara, Algeria)Djidel Mohamed, Bousnoubra-Kherici Houria, Kherici Nacer, Nezli Imed-EddineThe present study is registered, on the area of Ouargla (the Sahara septentrional, Algeria) reports of the aquifer contamination by the anarchistic urban rejections. By its geomorphology (basin), its hyperarid climate and the presence of chotts, the area is subjected to an important degree of vulnerability, encouraged by the discharges of wastewater (domestic and irrigation). These factors expose aquifer's water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,108 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 abstractFourier transforms Investigation of Global Solar Radiation at True Noon: in the Desert climatologyU. Ali Rahoma, A.H. HassanThe aim of this work has been to obtain a typical annual time a function by the application of a calculation procedure based on a Fourier analysis to global solar radiation data of nine years at Helwan Egypt from June 1991 to August 1999. This function allows us to estimate the most probable values of the horizontal daily global solar … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite
