Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of the Daily Mean PM10 Concentrations Using Linear ModelsJ. C.M. Pires, F. G. Martins, S. I.V. Sousa et al.The performance of five linear models to predict the daily mean PM10 concentrations was compared. The linear models proposed were: (i) multiple linear regression; (ii) principal component regression; (iii) independent component regression; (iv) quantile regression; and (v) partial least squares regression. The study was based on data from an urban site in Oporto Metropolitan Area and the analysed period was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,132 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Twelve Dielectric Moisture Probes for Soil Water Measurement under Saline ConditionsM. Inoue, B.A. Ould Ahmed, T. Saito, M. IrshadRecently the research on the determination of soil water content and electrical conductivity using automated technique has received tremendous attention. Selecting the type of system that should be used for soil water measurement under saline conditions depends on its precision. A laboratory study was carried out to measure the soil water content (θ) and soil solution electrical conductivity (ECw) using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,450 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasurement of Gas-Phase Mass Transfer Coefficients in a Humidification Column through Random PackingMasoud Khorasani, Morteza Zivdar, Farshad Fashchi Tabrizi et al.Packed columns are an important part of the broad selection of mass and heat transfer equipment. Nowadays, the use of packed columns is increasing, which is because of its lower pressure drop, higher capacity and higher mass transfer in comparison to tray columns. The experiential tests and the hypothetical analysis display that the chemical dehumidification of air by hygroscopic salt … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2019 · 8,028 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Changes in Opened Sufu Bottles During Storage with Mathematical ModelJingJing Liang, Dawei Li, Ruiqin Shi et al.Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is a type of nonlinear empirical model, which can clarify the complex relation between the inputs and outputs that allows it to approximate any nonlinear function for making predictions. The objective of this study is to monitor the Biogenic Amines (BAs) content and selected physicochemical properties of sufu (a traditional Chinese fermented soybean product) along time. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 12 Dec 2018 · 9,353 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRice Grain Moisture Determination Using Microstrip Wide-Ring and Microstrip Coupled-Line SensorsHou Kit Mun, Kok Yeow You, Mohamad Ngasri DimonDetermining the Moisture Content (MC) inside rice grain is an important element for grain processesing such as harvesting, storage, quality control and transportation. A microstrip wide-ring sensor and a microstrip coupled-line sensor with low insertion loss were developed to operate at relatively low frequency to determine the MC and relative complex permittivity of rice grain. The complex permittivity for rice … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2015 · 7,438 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Unique Novel Approach for Design and Analysis of A Robust Decentralized Self-Tuning Fuzzy PI Controller for a Multi Input Multi Output ProcessP. Sujatha Therese, N. Kesavan NairProblem statement: In the real world most of the controlled processes in industries are Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) in nature.They have more than a single controlled variable that should be manipulated in order to achieve the desired control performance. Approach: Control of non linear Multi Input Multi Output processes, it is a difficult task because of the non stationary behaviour, substantial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 17 Jan 2012 · 7,004 accessesView PDF Cite
