Evaluating greywater and A/C condensate daily volume and water quality in urban settings
(
American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Due to increasing water demand as a result of population growth and improvement in living standards, many countries with arid climate are already facing water shortages that are being met by expensive desalination projects. ...
Stratigraphy, faciès analysis and reservoir characterization of the Upper Jurassic Arab "C", Qatar, Arabian Gulf
(
Gebruder Borntraeger Verlagsbuchhandlung
, 2011 , Article)
The Arab C is a member of the Jurassic Arab Formation, one of the largest carbonate reservoirs in the Arabian Basin. Detailed petrographic analysis of cores and thin sections from selected wells in the onshore Dukhan ...
Optimal Scheduling of Biodiesel Plants through Property-based Integration with Oil Refineries
(2011 , Book)
This paper addresses the design and scheduling problem of biodiesel plants in conjunction with typical oil refineries via blending of biodiesel and petro-diesel. The feedstocks are often seasonal and their availability and ...
Spiroraslaser: An interactive visual art system using hybrid raster-laser projection
(
Inderscience Publishers
, 2011 , Article)
This paper explores the possibility of generating visual imagery in a highly interactive environment on the basis of hand position and acceleration. We present a new display method called hybrid raster-laser projection for ...
Adaptive and unequal probability survey designs for environmental management
(
The Modelling and Simulation Society of Australia and New Zealand Inc
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Designing an efficient large-area survey is a challenge, especially in environmental science when many populations are rare and clustered. Adaptive and unequal probability sampling designs are appealing when populations ...
Multi-species attributes as the condition for adaptive sampling of rare species using two-stage sequential sampling with an auxiliary variable
(
The Modelling and Simulation Society of Australia and New Zealand Inc
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Assessing populations of rare species is challenging because of the large effort required to locate patches of occupied habitat and achieve precise estimates of density and abundance. The presence of a rare species has ...
Use of post-stratification in composite sampling for estimating mean
(
Springer
, 2011 , Article)
We show with the results of a study conducted in the Hamadan Province, Iran as to how the use of composite sampling for estimating mean zinc concentration in the soil can help reduce analytical costs by reducing the number ...
Empirical likelihood inference for population quantiles with unbalanced ranked set samples
(
Taylor & Francis Group
, 2011 , Article)
We consider nonparametric interval estimation for the population quantiles based on unbalanced ranked set samples. We derived the large sample distribution of the empirical log likelihood ratio statistic for the quantiles. ...
Edge-maximal graphs without θ 7 -graphs
(
Tokyo University of Science
, 2011 , Article)
Let G(n; θ2k+1, ≥ δ) denote the class of non-bipartite θ2k+1-free graphs on n vertices and minimum degree at least δ and let f (n; θ2k+1, ≥ δ) = max{ε(G): G ∈ G(n; θ2k+1, ≥ δ)}. In this paper we determinj an upker bound ...
Antihydrogen physics: Gravitation and spectroscopy in AEgIS
(
Canadian science publishing
, 2011 , Article)
AEgIS (Antimatter experiment: gravity, interferometry, spectroscopy) is an experiment approved by CERN with the goal of studying antihydrogen physics. In AEgIS, antihydrogen will be produced by charge exchange reactions ...
