Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHorizontal Cooperation Practices in Internet-based Higher Education, Computational Logistics and TelecommunicationsJesica de Arma, Thanasis Daradoumis, Anastasios A. Economides, Angel A. JuanGlobalization and advances in information and communication technologies have boosted the use of Horizontal Cooperation (HC) practices in many industry sectors. In the current international market, these ‘alliances’ become especially relevant for small and medium organizations, which are forced to compete with large-scale corporations. This paper analyzes benefits and challenges of HC practices in three service sectors that are critical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2019 · 7,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLow-Homology Protein Structural Class Prediction from Secondary Structure Based on Visibility and Horizontal Visibility NetworkZhi-Qin Zhao, Liang Luo, Xiao-Yan LiuIn this study, based on the predicted secondary structures of proteins, we propose a new approach to predict protein structural classes (α,β,α/β,α+β) for three widely used low-homology data sets. Fist, we obtain two time siries from the chaos game representation of each predicted secondary structure; second, based on two time series, we construct visibility and horizontal visibility network, respectively and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2018 · 9,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFree Convection over a Permeable Horizontal Flat Plate Embedded in a Porous Medium with Radiation Effects and Mixed Thermal Boundary ConditionsMohd Zuki Salleh, Najihah Mohamed, Roziena Khairuddin et al.Problem statement: In this study, the mathematical modeling of free convection boundary layer flow over a permeable horizontal flat plate embedded in a porous medium under mixed thermal boundary conditions and radiation effects is considered. Approach: The transformed boundary layer equations are solved numerically using the shooting method. Results: Numerical solutions are obtained for the wall temperature, the heat transfer … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2012 · 8,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDeveloping a Computer Program for the Methods of Radius-Estimating Techniques for Horizontal CurvesAsma Th. Ibraheem, Fatin JananProblem statement: This study discusses the development of computer software of two phases. First phase contains the calculations of all curve elements of the four types of the horizontal curve and second phase contains the modeling of the ten methods of estimating the radius of the horizontal curve. Approach: The program is named as HCRET, which stands for Horizontal Curves … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 8,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstablishment, Verification and Application of a Correlation to Predict the Maximum Heat Flux of a Horizontal Closed-Loop Pulsating Heat PipeNiti Kammuang-Lue, Teerasak Hudakorn, Pradit TerdtoonProblem statement: In heat pipe design, it was very important to be sure that the desired heat pipe would not operate in the MHF state. In the case of a vertical CLPHP, the MHF state and maximum heat flux could be predicted by using the correlation, while, in the case of a horizontal CLPHP, there had been no study presented … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Horizontal Electric Field Induced by a Lightning Return StrokeScott L. Meredith, Susan K. Earles, Niescja E. TurnerProblem statement: Develop a new formula which describes the horizontal electric field induced by a lightning return stroke in contact with an imperfect conductive surface. Approach: A new method for describing the horizontal electric field induced by a lightning return stroke will be presented. The method presented here had utilized an approach which purposely downplayed the physics of how image … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Modeling of Flow in a Horizontal Sand FilterRuth Mossad, Hal AralProblem statement: Horizontal sand filters may offer some advantage over vertical sand filters as they could be used for in-line treatment of wastewaters. Horizontal pipelines of tens and if not hundreds of meters length, filled with ordinary sand or permeable reactive media such as activated carbon or natural zeolite or iron filings, may be used to remove impurities from mine … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleObservation Modeling for Continuous Predicting Global and Diffuse Solar Radiation on Horizontal SurfaceSomporn Hongkong, Singthong PattanasethanonMathematical modeling for continuous prediction of solar energy is inevitable for energy systems. General, existing models are mostly empirical and data dependent. This article has to present a variable model for predicting global and diffuse solar radiation on the horizontal plane. The model considered in this study has applied Hidden Markov Model (HMM) with two observations. The databases were measured … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 23 May 2013 · 6,797 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Tunnel Boring Machine Advancements in Horizontal and Up-Hill TunnelsStefano Fuoco, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: Nowadays high levels of experience have been acquired in the excavation of horizontal tunnels using TBM, especially as far as tunnels with small diameters (about 4 m wide) are concerned. Less experience has been acquired in the excavation of tunnels under difficult alignment conditions, as in the case of steeply inclined excavations (up-hill tunnels). Approach: This study presented … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWastewater Treatment Using Horizontal Subsurface Flow Constructed WetlandS. Sarafraz, Thamer Ahamad Mohammad, Megat J. Megat M. Noor, A. LiaghatThe last few decades witnessed sharp focus on environment pollution and its impact on life in nature. Wetlands can be used for biological treatment of wastewater. Problem statement: Scarcity of water is considered as a global problem and Iran is one the countries which is facing water shortage problem. Pollution of water bodies restrict the availability of water for various … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,788 accessesView PDFCite
