Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReliability Equivalence Factors of a Parallel System Subject to Weibull Distribution Using Multivariate FGM CopulaNeama Salah Youssef TemrazThis paper analyze a parallel system consisted of n dependent components with lifetimes follow Weibull distribution. FGM Copula in multivariate case is used to generate the reliability function of the original system. Reduction method is introduced to improve system reliability. Other methods of hot, cold and warm duplication are established to improve system reliability. An application using real time data … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2018 · 7,940 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigate the Extrinsic and Intrinsic Motivational Factors of Knowledge Transfer in the HospitalsAhmad Aabed Al-Hayy Al-Dalaien, Sulfeeza Mohd Drus, Hairoladenan Kasim, Ali Taha Al-OqailyThe value of services in knowledge-intensive organizations like the hospitals is created by the tacit knowledge of the health staff. The weak knowledge transfer activities among the health staff effects on the performance level of the health care services. Hospitals are dependent on continuously learning from mistakes and to make improvements and then to transfer this newly acquired knowledge between … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 21 Jan 2020 · 7,728 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Laminated Glass with Stiff Interlayers – Numerical and Experimental ResearchJulian Hänig, Paulina Bukieda, Michael Engelmann et al.Glass is a linear-elastic and isotropic building material which allows for a quick calculation of internal forces and stress in the design stage. However, in safety applications, e.g. overhead glazing or balustrades, it is made into laminated glass using plastic interlayers. Their material properties change over time and are temperature-dependent. Additionally, larger spans and the demand to reduce the amount … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2019 · 13,559 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMODELING AND SIMULATION OF FUZZY BASED AUTOMATIC INSULIN DELIVERY SYSTEMSunithaKarnam Anantha, Senthil Kumar Natarajan, Subransu Sekar DashThe aim is to design a complete online, automatic, intelligent and independent insulin delivery system. The proposed system calculates the amount of insulin by formulation based upon two linguistic factors i.e. weight and blood glucose levels. These factors have been used to develop a rule based fuzzy system in LabVIEW. The fuzziness brings a better regulation into the regime than … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,623 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost Analysis of a Two Dissimilar-Unit Cold Standby Redundant System Subject to Inspection and Random Change in UnitsG. S. Mokaddis, C. H. MattaProblem statement: This study deled with the cost analysis of a two dissimilar unit cold standby redundant system subject to inspection and random change in units. In this system each unit works in two different modes normal and total failure. Assuming that the failure, repair, post repair, interchange of units and inspection times are stochastically independent random variables each having … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost Analysis of K-Out of-n Repairable System with Dependent Failure and Stand by Support Using Kolmogorov's Forward Equations MethodM. Y. HaggagProblem statement: Many authors have studied k-out of-n repairable system with dependent failure and standby support. The question was raised whether the repair and standby units support increase the reliability of the system. Determine the efficiency of repair and standby support on the reliability of the system. Approach: In this study the statistical analysis of k-out of-n repairable system with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,598 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach for Cooling Electronics Using a Combined Heat Pipe and Thermoelectric ModuleBanjerd Saengchandr, Nitin V. AfzulpurkarThe development of effective cooling systems for microprocessors, specifically for CPU and other computer chips, is greatly important due to growth of high speed performance chips, which operate at elevated heat rates. The same issues apply for adjacent units including RAM and HDD also contributing to overall generation of heat inside computer. Problem statement: Conventional cooling system for desktop PC … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,366 accessesView PDFCite
