The Taguchi method was applied as an experimental design to determine optimum conditions for colour removal from azo dyes solutions containing remazol yellow G by electrocoagulation (EC) using iron and steel electrodes as anode and cathode, respectively. An orthogonal array (OA9) experimental design that allows to investigation the simultaneous variations of four parameters (initial remazol ye...

This letter addresses the optimum energy partition between the midamble and data fields, given the total energy per burst, in channel estimation for joint detected time-division code-division multiple-access systems. We show that, given the lengths of the data and midamble, in general, the optimal solution requires different amplitude levels. We also derive the burst structure leading to the op...

Determining the efficient density for forest roads is essential to decrease the costs of skidding and road constructing in forestry plans. In order to estimate the optimal density for road network in Dalak kheyl forest district (Mazandaran Wood and Paper Industries), we calculated the roading costs and hourly costs of Timber jack 450C and HSM 904 skidders. The length of skid trails was measured...

In [5] we define a stationary tangent process, or a locally optimal stationary approximation, to a real non-stationary smooth Gaussian process. This paper extends the idea by constructing a discrete tangent – a “locally” optimal stationary approximation – for a discrete time, real Gaussian process. Analogously to the smooth case, our construction relies on a generalization of the recursion form...
