A new approach to incorporate uncertainty into Euler's method
(Hikari Ltd, 2010)Fuzzy set provides a powerful technique to introduce uncertainty into numerical methods. However, the computations of fuzzy sets often face difficult problems. This is due to non-applicability of common existing methods, ... -
New crime detection with LBP and GANN
(Springer-Verlag, 2013)A current review of media sources indicates crimes of opportunity such as burglaries, purse-snatchings and vehicle theft, are consistently the most topical crime problems. The Malaysian government has taken several steps ... -
A new fuzzy version of Euler's method for solving differential equations with fuzzy initial values
(Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), 2011-06)This paper proposes a new fuzzy version of Euler’s method for solving differential equations with fuzzy initial values. Our proposed method is based on Zadeh’s extension principle for the reformulation of the classical ... -
A new method for computing continuous functions with fuzzy variable
(Asian Network for Scientific Information (ANSInet), 2011)This study proposes a new method for computing f(U) where f is a real continuous function and U is a fuzzy interval. The computation of f(U) is performed by incorporating optimisation technique into Zadeh's extension ... -
Noise annoyance fuzzy index in passenger car cabin
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2013)Vehicle acoustical comfort and vibration in passenger car cabin are the factors which attract buyers to a vehicle, in order to have a comfortable driving environment. The comfort of the driving will affect the driver by ... -
Nuclear matter and surface clustering
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2013)We demonstrate that the binding energy per nucleon of symmetric nuclear matter (SNM) (with Coulomb interaction switched off and N Z) in the limit of zero density approaches to its value, uv, at the saturation density, where ... -
Numerical solution of the boundary layer flow over an exponentially stretching sheet with thermal radiation
(European Journals Inc., 2009-07)In this paper, the problem of steady laminar two-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an incompressible viscous fluid with a presence of thermal radiation over an exponentially stretching sheet is investigated ... -
Optimisation of acoustical comfort in vehicle cabin using goal programming
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2013)Car cabin acoustical comfort is one of the main features that may attract customers to purchase a new vehicle. The noise in a passenger car cabin is closely related to the vibration generated in the vehicle system. In this ... -
