Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRepresentation of Polygonal Surfaces as Displaced Subdivision SurfacesMuhammad HussainProblem statement: Displaced subdivision representation possesses a number of attractive features for efficient and convenient processing tasks like editing, geometry compression, animation, scalability and adaptive rendering of polygonal models. In this representation, a detailed surface model was built as a scalar-valued displacement map over a smooth domain surface. The construction of the smooth domain surface from a polygonal model was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 6,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVisualization of Available Power Transfer Capability in a Transmission System Using Morphological TechniquesS. U. Prabha, B. S. Dayasagar, C. VenkataseshaiahA morphological decimation technique has been proposed and implemented to analyze the available power transfer capability in a transmission power network. The method creates a graphical image of the power network with thickness of the lines proportional to their respective rated megavolt ampere (MVA) capacity. Based on ac load flow solution, another image was created to represent the power flow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSensitivity Analysis of an Optimal Access Road Location in HillyForest Area: A GIS ApproachMohd I. Hasmadi, J.C. TaylorThere are various models for establishing the efficient forest road allocation and evaluating optimum density of forest roads network for the transport of timber commodity. Most of them are based on the calculation of common timber transport costs and costs for forest roads. Today, forest road design from traditional method continues to be transformed by remote sensing technology and advancement … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmbedding Malaysian House Red Ant Behavior into an Ant Colony SystemZ. A. Othman, H. M. Rais, A. R. HamdanProblem statement: Ant Colony System (ACS) is the most popular algorithm used to find a shortest path solution in Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). Several ACS versions have been proposed which aim to achieve an optimum solution by adjusting pheromone levels. However, it still has a room on an improvement. This research aims to improve the algorithm by embedding individual Malaysian … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Infrastructure Development on Income Generation: A Study on Jamuna Bridge Project in BangladeshShaikh MoniruzzamanThis research is an attempt to examine the impact of infrastructure development on income generation in the north eastern region of Bangladesh which enjoyed a wide range of amenities after the construction of Jamuna Bridge in 1998. The application of 'difference in difference estimator' using the pooled household level income data of the treatment and control area in the pre … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 8,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConvergence Ratio Profile for Optimal Control Problems Governed by Ordinary Differential Equations with Matrix CoefficientsO. Olotu, S.A. OlorunsolaThe geometric convergence ratio, the main focus of a discretized scheme for constrained quadratic control problem was examined. In order to allow for the numerical applications of the developed scheme, discretizing the time interval and using Euler’s scheme for its differential constraint obtained a finite dimensional approximation. Applying the penalty function method, an unconstrained problem was obtained on function minimization … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGas Turbine Ontology for the Industrial ProcessesF. Z. Laallam, M. SellamiThe activity of supervision and control of the industrial processes is a very complex spot and require a great experiment because of the dynamic characteristics of the process. This experiment was acquired with the passing of years. What makes departure of an expert in retirement a great loss of the know-how. The problem thus consists to capture this know-how and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Economic Feasibility of Rebuilding Al-Isra University Tunnel — Mechanical FactorsBassam Al-HelouEconomic feasibility is the cornerstone in the decision making on an economic venture. The more positive the economic signs, the less the risk and foreseen losses. This study throws light on some economic advantages of rebuilding Al-Isra tunnel, especially in terms of shortening the car/bus trip by six kilometers go and fro, and in terms of reducing the trip schedule … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 7,154 accessesView PDFCite
