Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Closed Form Solutions of Linear and Nonlinear Cauchy Reaction-Diffusion Equations Using the Hybrid of Fourier Transform and Variational Iteration MethodS.S. Nourazar, A. Nazari-Golshan, M. NourazarProblem statement: In the present study, a hybrid of Fourier transform and Variational Iteration Method (FTVIM) is developed for solving the non-homogeneous linear and nonlinear partial differential equations of Cauchy reaction-diffusion problem. Approach: The closed form solutions obtained from the series solution of recursive sequences is valid for the entire range of problem domain. Results and Conclusion: Moreover, the very … …Physics International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 26 Oct 2011 · 8,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputing Evaporanspiraton from Weather Data Obtained from Distant, Non-Reference Weather Stations in a Hyper-Arid RegionElNesr Mohammad Nabil, Alazba Abdurrahman AliProblem statement: Reference agro-climatic Weather Stations (WS) are rarely found in newly reclaimed areas. The usage of weather data from non-reference WS may lead to inaccurate estimations of Evapo Transpiration (ET), especially if the non-reference stations are distant from the reclaimed location. Approach: Weather data from four WS located at Riyadh were used to calculate ET by using Penman Monteith … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2011 · 7,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Channel Equalization Using Multiplicative Neural Network for Rayleigh Faded ChannelP. Sivakumar, N. Chithra, S. N. Sivanandam, M. RajaramProblem statement: Digital transmission over band-limited communication channel largely suffers from ISIS and various noise sources. The presence of ISI and noise causes bit errors in the received signal. Equalization is necessary at the receiver to overcome these channel impairment to recover the original transmitted sequence. Traditionally equalization is considered as equivalent to inverse filtering and implemented using linear-perform under … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 18 Aug 2011 · 6,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTuning of a Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller using Multi-Objective Non Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization Applied to pH Control in Continuous Stirred Tank ReactorC. Agees Kumar, N. Kesavan NairProblem statement: Most of the control engineering problems are characterized by several, contradicting, conflicting objectives, which have to be satisfied simultaneously. Two widely used methods for finding the optimal solution to such problems are aggregating to a single criterion and using Pareto-optimal solutions. Approach: Non-Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (NSPSO) based approach is used in the design of multiobjective … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 6,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Linear Model for Moving Measurements Estimation in Urban Climate StudiesClaudia Cotrim Pezzuto, Lucila Chebel Labaki, Lia Toledo Moreira Mota, Alexandre Alexandre de Assis MotaProblem statement: Several methods can be adopted to study the variations in urban climate. The mobile measurement method is one of them, involving information provided by moving measurements of air temperature, that are taken in points defined along pre-established routes and also data from fixed-point temperature recording stations. Because moving measurements are made in different times along the measurement process, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 7,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Method for Testing Digital to Analog Converter in Static RangeK. Hariharan, S. Gouthamraj, B. Subramaniam et al.Problem statement: Linearity testing methods for DAC usually involves usage of non-linear analog components, which are indeed prone to various errors. Few other testing methodologies involve complex circuitry for measuring exactitude of DAC. Practically, it is difficult to build those as Built In Self Test (BIST) due to complexity of calculation, which demands more usage of ALU (or core of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Predictability of Risk Box Approach by Genetic Programming Method for Bankruptcy PredictionAlireza Bahiraie, Noor Akma bt Ibrahim, A. K.M. AzharProblem statement: Theoretical based data representation is an important tool for model selection and interpretations in bankruptcy analysis since the numerical representation are much less transparent. Some methodological problems concerning financial ratios such as non-proportionality, non-asymetricity, non-scalicity are solved in this study and we presented a complementary technique for empirical analysis of financial ratios and bankruptcy risk. Approach: This study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Heat Transport in a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel CellE. Afshari, S.A. JazayeriIn this study a two-phases, single-domain and non-isothermal model of a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell has been studied to investigate thermal management effects on fuel cell performance. A set of governing equations, conservation of mass, momentum, species, energy and charge for gas diffusion layers, catalyst layers and the membrane regions are considered. These equations are solved numerically in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,343 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrongly Real Elements in the Linear Groups PSLn(q)Ibrahim A.I. SuleimanWe investigated which elements in some projective special linear and unitary groups are strongly real. In particular we showed every real element in PSL2(q) strongly real. We write a full table for real classes which are not strongly real in the unitary groups as well as a table for the non real classes in the unitary groups. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,782 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship Between Shear Strength and Soil Water Characteristic Curve of an Unsaturated Granitic Residual SoilThamer Ahmed Mohamed, Faisal Hj. Ali, S. Hashim, Bujang B.K. HuatShear strength parameters are crucial for stability analyses of slopes against slope failures and landslides. The three shear strength parameters that are required to define a failure envelope of an unsaturated soil are c’ (apparent cohesion), Φ’ (effective angle of friction) and Φb (shear strength change with change in matric suction). A soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) that relates the water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,352 accessesView PDFCite
