Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Blood Turbulent Flow in Carotid Artery Including the Effects of Mural Thrombosis Using Finite Element ModelingM. Arab-Ghanbari, M. M. Khani, A. Arefmanesh, F. Tabatabai-GhomsheArterial thrombosis is an extremely significant health problem. As a result of numerous factors involved in such problem, describing the role of hemodynamics in thrombogenesis has been asserted to be one of the most demanding and complicated challenges in biomechanics. An axisymmetric model considering fluid-structure interactions (FSI) was introduced and numerically solved for an artery with a thrombosis to perform … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,411 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of the Mean of Truncated Exponential DistributionFaris Muslim Al-AthariProblem statement: In this study, the researcher considers the problem of estimation of the mean of the truncated exponential distribution. Approach: This study contracted with maximum likelihood and unique minimum variance unbiased estimators and gives a modification for the maximum likelihood estimator, asymptotic variances and asymptotic confidence intervals for the estimators. The properties of these estimators in small, moderate and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,682 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving the Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic Demands via Hybrid Genetic Algorithm-Tabu SearchZ. Ismail, IrhamahThis study considers a version of the stochastic vehicle routing problem where customer demands are random variables with known probability distribution. A new scheme based on a hybrid GA and Tabu Search heuristic is proposed for this problem under a priori approach with preventive restocking. The relative performance of the proposed HGATS is compared to each GA and TS alone, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStop Conditions Of BB84 Protocol Via A Depolarizing Channel (Quantum Cryptography)Iyed Ben Slimen, Olfa Trabelsi, Houria Rezig et al.BB84 (Bennett and Brassard 1984) is one of the well known protocols of quantum keys distribution. It is built to allow two interlocutors commonly called Alice and Bob to share two similar binary keys and to detect the eavesdropper presence (the eavesdropper is commonly called Eve). However, Eve presence in a disturbed environment causes errors to the sifted keys and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,349 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRainfall Depth-Duration-Frequency Relationships for South Carolina, North Carolina, and GeorgiaJ. P. Raiford, N.M. Aziz, A.A. Khan, D.N. PowellThe depth-duration-frequency curves and isopluvial maps for the region encompassing South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia were developed using the available rainfall data. The aim was to update the existing intensity-duration-frequency curves in the region and obtain these curves at ungauged sites throughout the region using the newly developed rainfall frequency analysis techniques. A total of 17 durations ranging from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,330 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Tropospheric Scintillation Intensity on Earth to Space in MalaysiaMandeep Singh Jit Singh, Syed Idris Syed Hassan, Mohd Fadzil Ain et al.This paper presents the results of a study on tropospheric scintillation on satellite link that has been performed at University Sains Malaysia (USM) to obtain statistics of scintillation from the 12.255 GHz Superbird C satellite with an elevation angle of 40.10. The objective of this analysis was to determine whether the long-term scintillation follows the log normal or gamma distribution. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,268 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Branching Cell Population Model Allowing for Cell DeathMounir AoutWe use multi-type branching processes to describe a general cell population model allowing for cell death. Unlike the case without cell death, the process can be subcritical, critical or supercritical. Since we are interested in the supercritical case where the process can escape extinction with positive probability, we give conditions ensuring the supercriticality. In this context, we show the existence … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,724 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Laboratory Study of Bayesian Updating in Small Feedback-Based Decision ProblemsTakemi Fujikawa, Sobei H. OdaThis study explores small feedback-based decision problems experimentally. Conducted were the experiments in which the decision-maker’s payoff distribution was limited to either favorable distribution or unfavorable distribution. The first remarkable observation revealed complexity/loss aversion in the experiment. The second observation included the law of small numbers. Deviations from maximization were also observed. Finally, we investigated the imperfect Bayesian decision-makers observed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,760 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics of Infected Snails and Mated Schistosoma Worms within the Human HostG. Besigye-Bafaki, L. S. LuboobiMale and female worms are independently distributed within a human host each with a Poisson probability distribution mass function. Mating takes place immediately when partners are available. It was found that the mated worm function is non-linear near the origin and becomes almost linear as the worms increase. They increase with increase in the worm load due to aggregation of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractp ≠ np: The Set of Deterministic Problems that are Solvable in Polynomial Time is Unequal to the Set of Non-Deterministic Problems that are Solvable in Polynomial TimeAndres BoldoriThis study constructs a solution to the “p vs. np” problem using complexity theory. We show through counterexamples that p ≠ np and formalize the two sets using stochastic, probabilistic and non-deterministic modeling. While the well-known sets “pspace” and “npspace”, analyzing the storage of a device, can be claimed to be equal, p and np differ and are exclusively defined … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 10 · 8 Aug 2024 · 7,112 accessesView PDFCite
