We have investigated the thermodynamic properties of the cubic zirconia ZrO2 using the statistical moment method in the statistical physics. The free energy, thermal lattice expansion coefficient, specific heats at the constant volume and those at the constant pressure, CV and CP , are derived in cl[r]
CONCLUSIONThis investigation proposes a practical method for detecting damage per each storey of a buildingstructure using measured vibration characteristics, and its usefulness is verified by a numerical exampleand model experiment. The major contribution of the proposed[r]
INTRODUCTION: For some time the brewing, food and ingredient industries have identified the need to develop an accurate, convenient and reliable method for assaying mixedlinkage βglucan in barley, malt, wort and beer. The Megazyme method meets all of these requirements. It is simple to use and[r]
- Students think that English is too difficult for them to learn,- Teaching Methods’ teachers are not attractive- Number of students in each classroom are overcrowding (36-48) andunclassified.- Shortage of teaching equipment- Parents are not aware of the necessity of English coursesAs stated[r]
This paper presents a multitarget data fusion (identification) algorithm called the Fuzzy data fusion algorithm (FDFA) for radar target tracking. This approach is formulated using the Kalman filter and FDF, the algorithm is accomplished by using fuzzy logic. Simulation results for cluttered conditio[r]
We propose the Bayesian adaptive Lasso (BaLasso) for variable selection and coefficient estimation in linear regression. The BaLasso is adaptive to the signal level by adopting different shrinkage for different coefficients. Furthermore, we provide a model selection machinery for the BaLasso by asse[r]
Learning and using English requires a process of creative exercise diligence of both the learner and the teacher. Especially in light of education reform today, teaching English communication perspective many supporters ho.Theo this method students have many opportunities to communicate with friends[r]
A feedback control system usually implements active and semiactive control of seismically excited structures. The objective of the control system is described by a performance index, including weighting matrix norms. The choice of weighting matrices is usually based on engineering experience. A new[r]

Total recovery of fermentable sugar from lignocellulosic biomass has foremost problem for liquid biofuel production. Several pretreatment methods have been tried, however use of ionic liquids is one of promising method then others, but it also has less efficiency. Hence a method was developed for pr[r]
Threephase transformer modeling for unbalanced distribution power flow has not been successful in phase variables. A satisfactory solution to this problem has been developed earlier, using a hybrid of phase and sequence variables. These models are not suitable for power flow methods which can provid[r]

In the process of the continuous monitoring of the structure’s state properties such as static and dynamic responses using Global Positioning System (GPS), there are unavoidable errors in the observation data. These GPS errors and measurement noises have their disadvantages in the precise monitoring[r]
