Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPossibility and Evidence-Based Reliability Analysis and Design OptimizationHong-Zhong Huang, Liping He, Yu Liu et al.Engineering design under uncertainty has gained considerable attention in recent years. A great multitude of new design optimization methodologies and reliability analysis approaches are put forth with the aim of accommodating various uncertainties. Uncertainties in practical engineering applications are commonly classified into two categories, i.e., aleatory uncertainty and epistemic uncertainty. Aleatory uncertainty arises because of unpredictable variation in the performance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 7,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsResponse Fusion in Multi-Agent EnvironmentFereshteh-Azadi Parand, Nasrollah Moghaddam Charkari, Sara AfrasyabianMulti agent environment are often complex, while each member of agent community has vision about only a part of the environment. In such environment, information fusion of agent community is vital to attain a better accuracy or quality of information. Agents have different ability and can access to information sources with different degree of credibility. As a result, information which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,165 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProper Management of Planetary Hydrocarbon ResourcesFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuMuch has been said about the planet's gas and oil resources and many assumptions and speculations have been made regarding their rapid depletion, but a report on the normal and judicious management of these important planetary resources for both energy and other various materials that are obtained today from them, such as composites, synthetic fibers for fabrics, plastics, rubber produced … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 24 May 2020 · 7,254 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTeaching the Indigenous Students with Courseware Based on Theory of Multiple IntelligencesMudiana Mokhsin Misron, Zatul Amilah Shaffiei, Saiful Adli Suhadak, Ariffin Abdul MutalibProblem statement: This study reports result of a research carried out to determine the possibility of computer technology use among the indigenous children in teaching and learning. Approach: In this study, courseware was used in a classroom of a school for the indigenous children, in which their motivation was extremely low. Comparison between normal class and courseware-assisted class was carried … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 21 Oct 2011 · 7,385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Theories of Complexity and Chaos to Economic MisgovernancePartha Gangopadhyay, Nasser Elkanj, Mustafa A. RahmanProblem statement: In this study we develop a comprehensive model involving local taxes, intergovernmental transfers and bureaucratic corruption to characterize a fiscal equilibrium in order to explain the provision of local (public) expenditure in developing nations. The main goal of the research is to explain economic misgovernance as an equilibrium phenomenon, which is therefore expected to persist over time despite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Free Educational Java Framework for Graph AlgorithmsGianluca Costa, Claudia D’Ambrosio, Silvano MartelloProblem statement: In the teaching of graph theory algorithms it is important that students can experiment them on numerical instances in order to fully understand their logical meaning and to learn how they can be implemented. Approach: We developed an open source Java framework to help students in their approach to the study of graph algorithms. The framework was implemented … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,397 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSomething about the V Engines DesignRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria Petrescu, Antonio Apicella et al.First time the corresponding author has studied these problems of motors in V, in the framework of some contracts made with the research collective of UPB and "Autobuzul" plant, in years 1980-1986. In the first phase, have been studied the vibrations and noises of an engine in V, their transmissibility from the engine to the chassis and the cab driver … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2016 · 8,861 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Proton Radius PuzzleG. M. HuberOccasionally,“revolutions” are caused in physics when new measurement techniques becomeavailable and cause us to rethink what we thought we knew. This has recently happenedin the field of proton structure physics, where researchers have had to revisitfundamental assumptions used in their determinations of the proton's meanelectric charge radius. Until 2010, ourknowledge of the proton's electric charge radius came exclusively fromelectron-proton interactions. … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 12 Sep 2015 · 8,321 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeveraging Appreciative Intelligence for Positive Enactment in Times of Uncertainty: A Case Study of a Small Investment FirmSusan Schick Case, Tojo ThatchenkeryProblem statement: How do we develop a complex understanding of markets and environments? Are markets and environments concrete entities that exist “out there” or are they socially constructed by human imagination and intentional language use? Approach: Using a case study approach, the interactions in a small investment firm were analyzed to bring to surface the complex relationship among markets, enactment … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
