Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNatural Radioactivity at an Uraniferous SiteClaudio de Carvalho Conti, Esau Francisco Sena Santos, Isabel Cristina Poquet SalinasThe aim of this study is to evaluate the soil composition, the radioactive isotopes concentration and the outdoor air Kerma in the region of the Uraniferous Province of Lagoa Real, Bahia State, located at northeast of Brazil. It has used data from an airborne gamma-ray survey previously carried out in the region, namely Projeto Sao Timoteo and computer simulations of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2013 · 7,456 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study on the Effects of Non-Normality on the Performances of Max-DEWMA Versus SS-DEWMA ChartsTeh Sin Yin, Michael Khoo Boon ChongProblem statement: The called the Sum of Squares Double Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (SS-DEWMA) chart which is effective in detecting shifts in the mean and/or variance is compared with the Max-DEWMA (called the maximum double exponentially weighted moving average) chart. The comparison is based on the assumption that the distribution of the quality characteristic of the process is normal or … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2012 · 7,188 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesting the Equality of Growth Curves of Independent Populations with Application on Egypt CaseHanan Girgis, Ramadan Hamed, Magued OsmanProblem statement: Numerous trials have been conducted to compare the body growth curves and hence growth rates relying on smoothing and modeling different growth curves using different parameter values for the same model. This study aimed to construct a test of the equality of two percentile growth curves and of a set of percentile growth curves from two independent populations … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,710 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeedup of Particle Transport Problems with a Beowulf ClusterZhongxiang Zhao, G. Ivan MaldonadoThe MCNP code is a general Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport program that is widely used in health physics, medical physics and nuclear engineering for problems involving neutron, photon and electron transport[1]. However, due to the stochastic nature of the algorithms employed to solve the Boltzmann transport equation, MCNP generally exhibits a slow rate of convergence. In fact, engineers and scientists … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,918 accessesView PDF Cite
