Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleUtilization and Modification of Point Sampling and Line Sampling in the Forestry SurveyDifei ZhangProblem statement: In the practice of conventional point sampling and line sampling methods in the forestry survey, we often encounter problems such as boundary and hole problems. These problems could introduce bias in the results of forest sampling. Proper modifications are needed. Approach: This study developed novel probability computation approaches in the utilization and modification of horizontal point sampling and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Students’ Career Choices in India-is Armed Forces a Prime Career Option for Indian StudentsThogaram Umasankar, Rajesh MahajanIn a student's life, taking the correct decision concerning the right career choice is critical. The career chosen must be in line with the expectations, else will result in a waste of efforts and resources.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Control of Robotic Manipulators with Improvement of the Transient Behavior Through an Intelligent Supervision of the Free-Design Parameters and the Sampling PeriodM. De La Sen, A. Almansa, J.C. SotoAn adaptive control scheme for mechanical manipulators proposed. The control loop consists of a network for learning the robot's inverse dynamics and on-line generating the control signal. Some simulation results were provided to evaluate the design. A supervisor was used to improve the performances of the system during the adaptation transients. The supervisor exerts two supervisory actions. The first one … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,881 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcceptance Towards Sustainable Agriculture among Contract Farmers and its Impingement FactorsHayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril, Jeffrey Lawrence D’Silva, Bahaman Abu Samah et al.Problem statement: Rising demands and needs for food nowadays have put a great pressure on our natural resources. Overuse of the environmental sources has been proven to have profound impact on both; the community and the environment. To solve such problem, sustainable agriculture has been suggested as one of the solutions. Undoubtedly, sustainable agriculture will supply adequate nutrition sources at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 12 Jun 2012 · 7,954 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeighted Centroid Modified Simplex and Linear Constrained Response Surface Optimization Methods for the Xbar-R Chart Variable DeterminationPongchanun LuangpaiboonProblem statement: Although economic Xbar-R chart designs do guarantee the minimal operating cost, they typically have poor levels of statistical performance measures. The obvious limitation of the economic design is that the Type I error rate seems to be very high for many situations and will cause a large number of false alarms. This situation leads to an investigation of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCompetencies Influencing Extension Workers’ Job Performance in Relation to the Good Agricultural Practices in MalaysiaNeda Tiraieyari, Khairuddin Idris, Jegak Uli, Azimi HamzahProblem statement: The bottom line in agricultural trade is that manufacturers are demanding agricultural products that are produced in a sustainable way and with assurance that they are truly conforming to the standards of Good Agriculture Practice. Towards this objective, attention has been given on sustainable agricultural productions in Malaysia. This study is an attempt to investigate job performance of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,557 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLaboratory Scale of Liquid Coal Fuel Combustion Process and Exhaust Gas FormationKartika Kus Hendratna, Osami Nishida, Hirotsugu Fujita, Wataru HaranoProblem statement: Much research of coal has been already undertaken to ascertain the possibilities of coal being used as substitute for heavy fuel oil in the transportation sector. The effects of using coal as transportation fuel to the environment must also be considered. This study will review several aspects of the coal oil combustion process including combustion behavior, flame stability, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHemisphere Sizing from Linear Intercept MeasurementWilfried GilleThe stereological problem of unfolding the hemisphere radius distribution from the chord length distribution is analyzed. Let a stationary isotropic process of hemispheres be given. The hemispheres have random diameters and are isotropically uniformly randomly orientated in space. A straight line probe yields a process of intercepts. The inverse problem of re-obtaining the size distribution of the hemispheres in terms … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,146 accessesView PDFCite
