in the present study, a model of a large lithium polymer (li-po) battery for use in the simulation of hybrid electric vehicles (hevs) is developed. to attain this goal, an equivalent circuit (ec) consisting of a series resistor and two rc parallel networks is considered. the accuracy and the response time of the model for use in an hev simulator are studied. the battery parameters identificatio...

Hyper-Threading Technology delivers significantly improved architectural performance at a lower-thantraditional power consumption and die size cost. However, increased logic complexity is one of the trade-offs of this technology. Hyper-Threading Technology exponentially increases the micro-architectural state space, decreases validation controllability, and creates a number of new and interesti...

In most cases of QSAR modelling the final model used to make predictions, is not known a priori but has to be selected in a data driven fashion (e.g. selection of principal components, variable selection, selection of the best mathematical modelling technique). Reliable estimation of externally validated prediction errors under this model uncertainty is still a challenge in chemoinformatics. To...

Courseware validation should locate Learning Objects inconsistent with the courseware instructional design being used. In order for validation to take place it is necessary to identify the implicit and explicit information needed for validation. In this paper, we identify this information and formally define an information architecture to model courseware validation information explicitly. This...

the main objective of this research was assessing the effects of land use on runoff parameters such as total runoff, surface runoff and peak discharges at the baghsalian watershed as a case study site. at first, land use maps of 1986 and 2012 were prepared using a synthetic method and landsat images. wetspa model was applied to simulate daily runoff for 8 years (the first 5 years as calibration...

according to variety of accessible hydrological models, evaluateing the efficiency of models for different management objectives are essential. therefore, models with simple structure and using minimal input that can provide an acceptable result can serve as an effective tool to watershed managers. hence, the objective of this research is to evaluate the relative performances of the lumped conc...

Reliable estimation of the porous membranes neck-pore size distribution (NPSD) is the key element in the design and operation of all membrane separation processes. In this paper, a new approach is presented for reliable of NPSD of porous membranes using wet flow-state bubble point test data. For this purpose, a robust method based on the linear regularization theory is developed to extract NPSD...

Data to which the authors refer to throughout this article are likelihood ratios (LR) computed from the comparison of 5-12 minutiae fingermarks with fingerprints. These LRs data are used for the validation of a likelihood ratio (LR) method in forensic evidence evaluation. These data present a necessary asset for conducting validation experiments when validating LR methods used in forensic evide...

Historically, test method evaluation, validation and review processes and criteria have been generally region-specific, often resulting in duplicative efforts and, at times, incongruent conclusions regarding the quality and utility of a test method. In an attempt to standardize such review and evaluation processes so as to render them globally consistent, experts in these arenas from such inter...

The validation of remote sensing products (RSPs) is fundamental work before the proper use of RSPs. This paper mainly introduces the technical specification for the validation of remote sensing product, which is used to guide user how to validate the available products. The validation of remote sensing products (VRSP) mainly there are two levels. The first level focuses on the validation at pix...
