Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Computational Fluid Dynamic Simulation of Fire Evacuation from the Student DormitoryTeeranon Saelao, Supat PatvichaichodProblem statement: The aim of this research is to investigate the fire evacuation problem from the student dormitory by using the Numerical method. The Fire Dynamics Simulator Software was used in the research with the evacuation function (FDS + Evac.). The problem under investigation concerns the building that has the open-air centre. The characteristics of the building are included with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 2 Feb 2012 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Dynamics Simulation of DENV RNA-Dependent RNA-Polymerase with Potential Inhibitor of Disulfide Cyclic PeptideUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Raima Syahidah Noors, Arli Aditya Parikesit et al.Problem statement: Our researches have proposed two ligands of disulfide cyclic polypeptide, which are CDEEC and CDGSC as potential inhibitor of DENV RNA-dependent RNApolymerase by molecular docking. Approach: Methodological approach was conducted to determine the best ligand to act as inhibitor. Molecular docking simulation was conducted without a solvent in which enzyme was made rigid and ligand was left free … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2011 · 8,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamical Model for Determining Human Susceptibility to Dengue FeverSurapol Naowarat, Thanon Korkiatsakul, I. Ming TangProblem statement: Mathematical models are a useful tool for understanding and describing the transmission of diseases such as dengue fever, one of the most prevalently emerging diseases common to tropical and subtropical areas throughout South East Asia. By taking into account human susceptibility to disease, the dynamics of a dengue disease model is proposed. Approach: Using standard methods for analyzing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2011 · 7,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMembrane Computing as a Modeling Tool for Discrete SystemsRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd. ZinProblem statement: Discrete systems have been modeled by using Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) in which the variation of concentration of an object was modeled as continuous and deterministic manner, contrary to the real behaviors of such systems. Although, this approaches able to generate the general behavior of the system, the specific discrete processes and stochastic behaviors in the system have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 24 Aug 2011 · 6,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Theories of Complexity and Chaos to Economic MisgovernancePartha Gangopadhyay, Nasser Elkanj, Mustafa A. RahmanProblem statement: In this study we develop a comprehensive model involving local taxes, intergovernmental transfers and bureaucratic corruption to characterize a fiscal equilibrium in order to explain the provision of local (public) expenditure in developing nations. The main goal of the research is to explain economic misgovernance as an equilibrium phenomenon, which is therefore expected to persist over time despite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Wholistic Ethical Litmus of Leadership: A Practical Non-Linear Dynamics and Chaos Based Leadership ModelLynn L. Adams, Nathanael L. AdamsProblem statement: Management is generally easy to define and measure. And, good managers tend to have many of the same characteristics and skill sets. Great leaders, on the other hand, have fewer shared characteristics. Some great leaders are great orators, for example, and yet many other great leaders are terrible public speakers. Great leaders tend to be very intuitive, but … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 27 May 2011 · 7,876 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Fire Evacuation of a Library Building based on the Numerical SimulationWithayavuth Jirasingha, Supat PatvichaichodProblem statement: This study investigates the fire evacuation problem of the library building by using the Fire Dynamics Simulator with Evacuation (FDS+Evac.) programming. Approach: The assumption is made that the sprinkler system is installed in the building but the system is malfunction, which is considered as the worst case of the situation. The simulations are divided into 4 cases, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,575 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynchronization of Chaos Systems Using Fuzzy LogicMohammad Ababneh, Issa Etier, Mahmoud Smadi, Jasim GhaebProblem statement: This study presented a new and systematic method to robustly synchronize uncertain chaos systems. It was derived based on the observer approach for synchronization, where error dynamics was made asymptotically stable around the zero to accomplish synchronization. Approach: This method viewed the synchronization problem as a control problem in order to make use of the literature available in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRehabilitation of a Human Arm Supported by a Robotic Manipulator: A Position/Force Cooperative ControlHaifa Mehdi, Olfa BoubakerProblem statement: The assistance of person with limited ability of arm movement is necessary for rehabilitation reasons. This aid is required not only to cover the human performances of the arm in motion and force but also to have a strictly stable dynamics. In this study, we proposed a cooperative system between a disabled arm and a robotic manipulator to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Self-Tuning Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, Based On Taguchi MethodM. Santhakumar, T. AsokanProblem statement: Conventional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers exhibit moderately good performance once the PID gains are properly tuned. However, when the dynamic characteristics of the system are time dependent or the operating conditions of the system vary, it is necessary to retune the gains to obtain desired performance. This situation has renewed the interest of researchers and practitioners in PID control. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,855 accessesView PDFCite
