| Geographic Information System Design And Analysis of Sea Water wave Forecast for Early Detection of Seashore Erosion | ||||||||
Scientific process occurred in seashore is the erosion in a seashore area and then to be transported
so other area from the mentioned seashore area will form sediment. Sea wave is one of seashore processes that
give great contribution to sediment transport rate. Sea wave can be measured directly or to be generated by
using wind data. Due to limitation of resources the direct measurement to sea wave in long term is very rarely
conducted so it is often to be conducted by using forecast method. In this research it is conducted sea wave
forecast at Lebih Beach in order to continuously monitor the seashore processes that occur in Lebih Beach. By
using wind data from BMKG of area III Denpasar it is conducted analysis of wind frequency distribution to get
dominant wind direction and speed that has effect in Lebih Beach...............

Application of Cumulative Axle Model To Impute Missing Traffic Data in Defective AVC Stations |
||||||||
An automatic vehicle classification (AVC) station is typically composed of three sensors per lane.
Instances of data missing from the traffic datasets collected at such stations can occur as a result of issues such
as one of the sensors malfunctioning. Although various data imputation methods, such as autoregressive
integrated moving average (ARIMA), exponential smoothing, and interpolation, have been proposed to deal
with this problem, they are either too complicated or have significant errors. This paper proposes a model,
called the "cumulative axle model," that minimizes such errors in traffic volume data resulting from a
malfunctioning sensor at AVC stations. Evaluations conducted in which missing traffic volume data imputation
was simulated using the proposed cumulative axle model indicate that our method has a mean absolute
percentage error (MAPE) of 2.92%. This is significantly more accurate than that of conventional imputation
methods, which achieve a MAPE of only 10% on average

Garch Models in Value-At-Risk Estimation for REIT |
||||||||
In this study we investigate volatility forecasting of REIT, from January 03, 2007 to November 18,
2016, using four GARCH models (GARCH, EGARCH, GARCH-GJR and APARCH). We examine the
performance of these GARCH-type models respectively and backtesting procedures are also conducted to
analyze the model adequacy. The empirical results display that when we take estimation of volatility in REIT
into account, the EGARCH model, the GARCH-GJR model, and the APARCH model are adequate. Among all
these models, GARCH-GJR model especially outperforms others.

Physical Activity Level Analyses and Chronic-Degenerative Disease Risks In Docents At Public Schools In The City of Horizonte, Ceara |
||||||||
It is of common belief that physical activity can restore damages caused to people's health due to
the stressful everyday work routine. The energy expenditure on physical activities is directly related to the
frequency, duration and intensity of human movements developed on many tasks. Thus, the main objective of
this paper was to evaluate this energy consumption in public school teachers from the city of Horizonte, Ceara,
discussing about degenerative chronic disease risks. 30 teachers, 9 men and 21 women within the age of 25 to
59 years old, were evaluated. Their Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated in order to classify them as normal,
overweight and obese. As an instrument, the long version of the International Physical Activity Questionnarie................

Effect of Moisture on the Thermal Capacity of some Agricultural Wastes |
||||||||
The effect of moisture content on the high heating value (calorific value) of groundnut shells, corn
cobs, coconut shells and palm kernel shells were investigated using a bomb calorimeter. Results show that,
generally, high heating values of all test samples decreased with increase in moisture level. Heating values of
18.795MJ/Kg at 9.34% moisture, 21.775MJ/Kg at 8.93% moisture, 39.972MJ/Kg at 8.26% moisture and
42.826MJ/Kg at 7.58% moisture were recorded for groundnut shells, corn cobs, coconut shells and palm kernel
shells respectively. These heating values decreased to 9.65MJ/Kg, 12.25MJ/Kg, 15.421MJ/Kg and
16.553MJ/Kg at 24.0% moisture level for groundnut shells, corn cobs, coconut shells and palm kernel shells
respectively. However, at all moisture levels, palm kernel shells had the highest heating values and were
followed by coconut shells. Thus, with appropriate technology, these agricultural wastes could be converted to
useful energy and also ensure a cleaner environment.

An Econometric Modeling of Development Process using Artificial Neural Network: A case study of India |
||||||||
In developing nations GDP is not considered an adequate proxy of development. The per capita
income, the quality of life , level of education are considered more relevant parameters of overall development.
Economists, planners and researchers have been deliberating on this issue until in 1990 UNDP published
Human Development Index [HDI] for all nations in its HDR report [6]. Although there have been several
studies in this regard, however a machine learning based econometric model is not yet available which can
establish the inter-relationship amongst these two variables in a quantified manner. This paper is an attempt in
this direction to develop a model using machine learning approach .The model is implemented using Neural
Network toolbox on MATLAB platform[10] with statistical data available from Planning Commission ,India
and HDR report of UNDP. The model implementation result is found to be satisfactory. The methodology
shown in this paper will be useful in preparing economic planning of India and other developing countries.

Biodiesel Production from waste Oil with Micro-Scale Biodiesel System Under Laboratory Condition |
||||||||
The aim of this project is to produce biodiesel from waste oil. The use of vegetable oils as
diesel fuel started with the invention of diesel engines in the 1900s and is also common in many countries today.
The fact that the oils used in biodiesel production are also an important input of the food industry is a limiting
factor in production. For this reason, it is aimed to produce biodiesel from waste oil which can not be assessed
in food production in this study. The most important contribution of the study to biodiesel researches is the
establishment of a small-capacity biodiesel unit in laboratory conditions. The waste oils from the food
production facilities of Namık Kemal University (NKU) have been collected and biodiesel has been produced
using two different experimental methods.................

Behaviour Analysis of Corroded Wires Based on Statistical Models |
||||||||
Steel wires are the primary components of a lifting wire rope. The behaviour of a wire governs
the behaviour of the whole of the cable. The physico-chemical processes like rates of degradation due to the
environment (corrosion, etc.) are different for each layer, external layers being more exposed.
The analysis of steel wires behaviour is traditionally based on statistical models describing the variability of its
properties. For this purpose a statistical study was carried out on two populations of healthy and corroded wires
by applying the Student distribution to select the most reliable results and the Weibull distribution to define the
survival probability and the failure probability..................

The study aimed to analyze the composition and different proportions of nutrients in Greek
type yogurt sold in the metropolitan region of Recife. This type of fermented milk had recent insertion and rapid
market acceptance and taste of Brazilians. As production so young, it does not have specific legislation, what
motivate investigation and questioning of the quality of these products from the nutritional point of view. It was
found that the products surveyed in major supermarkets in the Recife metropolitan region meet the yoghurt
labeling rules laid down in the Resolution ANVISA RDC nº360/2003, and the Identity and Quality Standards

Expression of Genetically Engineered Chitinase Gene of Pyrococcus furiosus |
||||||||
Wild-type Pyrococcus furiosus is most likely unable to grow on chitin in the natural biotope
due to a nucleotide insertion which separates the chitinase gene into two ORFs, whereas a genetically
engineered strain with the deleted nucleotide is able to grow on chitin. In the latest studies, the recombinant
enzyme activity against the crystal chitins was examined. But there are still some conflictions. In our study, to
shed a light on whether the construct composed of a catalytic domain and a chitin binding domain show any
activity against crystalline chitin, the construct was created in the pET 28b (+) expression vector and expressed
in Escherichia coli. The chitinase with an approximately 55 kDa molecular weight was determined. The activity
of the enzyme was measured spectrophotometrically. Despite the presence of enzyme activity against the
colloidal chitin, no significant activity against the crystal chitin has been measured.

Coding and Indexing Shape Feature using Golomb-Rice Coding for CBIR Applications |
||||||||
The Content-Based Image Retrieval application uses large amount of low-level features of images for
retrieving relevant images. Numerous low-level features are used for retrieval and among them the shape based feature is
important and can be represented in the form of histogram. It is well known that the low-level feature requires more storage
space and thus entire content has to be coded, indexed etc. to reduce the storage requirement, feature processing time and
accessing time. In this work, indexing and encoding mechanism is proposed to effectively access the feature and represent
the feature in lesser space. The bin values are used as reference for reducing the dimension of the histogram...............

Carbon Nanotube Based Circuit Designing: A Review |
||||||||
A new material and its associated device which have potential to replace Si and CMOS and
can extend the scalability of devices below 22 nm is the carbon nanotube (CNT) and its associated transistor,
the carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET). CNT possesses unique properties that make it a
promising future material. Similarly, CNTFET is a promising basic building block to complement the existing
silicon based MOSFET and can result in the extension of the validity of Moore's law further. This paper
presents the state of the art literature related to carbon nanotubes, carbon nanotube field effect transistors and
CNTFET based circuit designing. A review of CNTFET based analog and digital circuits has been presented. It
has been observed that the use of CNTFET can improve the performance of both analog and digital circuits.
The work will be of utmost use to the people working in the field of CNT based analog and digital circuit
designing.
