Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Modelling of Botswana’s Monthly Maximum Wind Speed using a Four-Parameter Kappa DistributionOliver Moses, Bhagabat Prasad ParidaWind speed modelling has been key to many environmental and engineering applications, particularly in environmentally friendly wind power generation to meet energy demands. Efficient assessment of wind speed at different recurrence intervals requires the choice of a suitable statistical distribution and an unbiased method of parameter estimation. This study suggests the use of a four parameter Kappa distribution, with its … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 22 Jun 2016 · 7,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVIDENCE OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL KUZNETS CURVE: IMPLICATIONS OF INDUSTRIAL TRADE DATAJamalludin Sulaiman, Azlinda Azman, Behnaz SabooriThis study examines the dynamic relationship between CO2 emissions and economic growth in Malaysia for the period of 1980-2004. The evidence of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is tested by including energy consumption, dirty export from Malaysia to China and dirty import from China to Malaysia based on the two and three-digit ISIC data which reflect pollution-intensive manufacturing. Using dirty … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Mar 2013 · 7,254 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two-Dimensional Wave Prediction Model Along the Best Track of Typhoon Linda 1997Worachat Wannawong, Usa W. Humphries, Prungchan Wongwises et al.Problem statement: A two-dimensional wave prediction model along the best track of Typhoon Linda 1997 was interested to study the impact of typhoon wind-wave characteristics. The dynamical wave model with deep water condition was used to predict the wave height (Hs) of Typhoon Linda before and after entering into the Gulf of Thailand (GoT). Approach: The standard one-way nested grid … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Study on Fundamental Frequency Contours of Thai Expressive Speech Using Fujisaki's ModelSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In spontaneous speech communication, prosody is an important factor that must be taken into account, since the prosody effects on not only the naturalness but also the intelligibility of speech. Focusing on synthesis of Thai expressive speech, a number of systems has been developed for years. However, the expressive speech with various speaking styles has not been accomplished. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,473 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCFD-PBE Modelling and Simulation of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cellulose in a Stirred TankNorazaliza Mohd Jamil, Qi WangRenewable energy or biofuel from lignocellulosic biomass is an alternative way to replace the depleting fossil fuels. The production cost can be reduced by increasing the concentration of biomass particles. However, lignocellulosic biomass is a suspension of natural fibres and processing at high solid concentration is a challenging task because it will affect the mixing quality between the enzyme and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 25 Oct 2016 · 8,002 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring Intra-City Eco-Efficiency Variations of Urban Infrastructures in JeddahMohammed Aljoufie, Alok TiwariSaudi cities are experiencing construction booms linked to urban infrastructure services and the Kingdom’s second largest city, Jeddah, is not an exception. As these booms are associated with urban expansion and rapid population growth, the major challenge confronting urban planners is the ensuring of resource efficiency given the offered infrastructure. In fact, reducing the consumption of resources and the impact … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 14 May 2016 · 7,447 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT FOR OIL PALM BASED PLYWOOD: A GATE-TO-GATE CASE STUDYM. Shamim Ahmad, Vijaya Subramaniam, Halimah Mohammad et al.Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is an important tool for identifying potential environmental impacts associated with the production of palm based plywood. This study is to make available the life cycle inventory for gate-to-gate data so that the environmental impact posed by oil palm based plywood production can be assessed. Conducting an LCA on the palm based plywood that are derived … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2014 · 9,080 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Natural Water with Cow Dung and Agricultural Waste Ratio on Biogas Production from Anaerobic Co-DigestionNaponKeanoi, KanokornHussaro, Sombat TeekasapGlobal warming caused by energy generation from fossil fuel has accelerated the deployment of renewable fuels such as biogas. In this study, batch fermentation (5L) was studied to observe the effect of natural water, cow dung, rice straw and water hyacinth ratio on the biogas and methane production at ambient temperature (31°C), 7.1-7.4 of pH for 52 days. The five … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 22 Jan 2014 · 8,513 accessesView PDFCite
