Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSupercritical Fluid Extraction of Palm CarotenoidsPuah C. Wei, Choo Y. May, Ma A. Ngan, Chuah C. HockThe extraction of carotenoids from crude palm oil was carried out in a dynamic (flow- through) supercritical fluid extraction system. The carotenoids obtained were quantified using off-line UV-visible spectrophotometry. The effects of operating pressure and temperature, flow rate of the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2), sample size of feed used on the solubility of palm carotenoids were investigated. The results showed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesParallel Iterative Algorithms with Accelerate Convergence for Solving Implicit Difference EquationsQing-Fu Liu, Wei-Jun Zhong, Mancho ManevThis study focuses on the solution of implicit difference equations, which are very difficult to compute in parallel for the diffusion equation. For improving the convergence rates and the properties of gradual-approach convergence of Segment-Classic-Implicit-Iterative (SCII) and Segment-Crank-Nicolson-Iterative (SCNI) algorithms realizing efficient iterative computation in parallel by segmenting grid domains, SCII and SCNI algorithms with accelerated convergence are studied and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 6,801 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Fuzzy-GAs Model for Determining Varied Irrigation EfficiencyAnongrit Kangrang, Chavalit ChaleeraktrakoonIrrigation efficiency is necessary information in water resource management. We proposed fuzzy sets approach for estimating varied irrigation efficiency. Genetic algorithms technique was applied to calibrate membership function of fuzzy model. The fuzzy sets technique considered the uncertainty of the available water resource and required area as the input variables. The approach model was applied to determine the fluctuated irrigation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,353 accessesView PDFCite
