Faculty salary equity in the College of Arts and Sciences at a regional mid-western university: an exploratory study
(
International Academy of Business and Public Administration Disciplines
, 2010 , Article)
The purpose of this study was to determine if there were salary inequities between male and female faculty members in the School of Arts and Sciences at a regional public university. An analysis-of-covariance (ANCOVA) model ...
Blind Deconvolution for retinal image enhancement
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a new technique is presented to enhance the blurred images obtained from retinal imaging. One of the main steps in inspecting the eye (especially the deeper image of retina) is to look into the eye using a ...
Identifying crack parameters in slow rotating machinery using vibration measurements and hybrid neuro-particle swarm technique
(2010 , Conference Paper)
Low-cycle fatigue-initiated cracks may result in failure in slow-rotating equipments. Online monitoring to identify such fault/crack parameters, namely crack size and crack location, would be critical in providing an early ...
Effect of gamma irradiation on the microstructure and morphology of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol blends
(
Trans Tech Publications
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Thin films of a blend of 90, 75, 50 (wt/wt%) percentage of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol were synthesized and irradiated with 5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 kGy. The presence of PVA leads to diffusion controlled mechanism ...
Fundamental group and cycle space of dual graphs and applications
(
Elsevier
, 2010 , Article)
In this work, we study the fundamental group of dual graph of a planar graph. Moreover, we show that a planar graph G has no cut vertex if and only if N(Π(D(G))) = N(Π(D(G − v))) − 1 for any v ∈ V(G). Some applications ...
Arabic speech-controlled wheelchair: A Fuzzy scenario
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the design of a speech-controlled wheelchair is presented. The main motivation for this design came through the feedback from personal experiences of several colleagues as well as rehabilitation centers of ...
Blind restoration of fluorescein angiography images
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a new technique is presented to enhance the blurred images obtained from Fluorescein Angiography (FA) of the retina. One of the main steps in inspecting the eye (especially the deeper image of retina) is to ...
Complete allocation sampling: An efficient and easily implemented adaptive sampling design
(
Wiley
, 2010 , Article)
Adaptive sampling designs are becoming increasingly popular in environmental science, particularly for surveying rare and aggregated populations. An adaptive sample is one in which the survey design is modified, or adapted, ...
A new upper bound of the basis number of the lexicographic product of graphs
(
Charles Babbage Research Centre
, 2010 , Article)
An upper bound of the basis number of the lexicographic product of two graphs from the basis number of the factors is presented. Furthermore, the basis numbers of the lexicographic product of some classes of graphs is determined.
How do qatari females make it to the top? an examination of the Organizational constraints to their advancement
(
Brill
, 2010 , Article)
Although Qatari females have increased their economic participation and reached remarkable educational attainment over the last decade, this has not been paralleled with good representation at management position. Accordingly, ...
