Construction of Health Promotion Management System Based on Web

Construction of Health Promotion Management System Based on Web

Weibing WU, Xiaodan LIU, Lijuan YU

Статья научная

Health management is a new service for healthy and sub-healthy people in modern medical institutions, which will help to instruct people how to effectively control and maintain their health. Through questionnaire, systematic analysis and software engineering, the structure and function of health promotion management system are analyzed and designed. Finally, the health promotion management system based on web is constructed. People become willing to take advantage of the system to manage and direct their own health instead of becoming victims of diseases.

Convergence of SAOR Method for the Linear Complementarity Problems

Convergence of SAOR Method for the Linear Complementarity Problems

Xian-li Han, Dong-jin Yuan, Shan Jiang

Статья научная

In this paper we apply an iterative method, the SAOR method for solving the linear complementarity problem, and some sufficient conditions for the convergence of the new method are presented when the system matrix M is an M-matrix. Moreover when M is an L-matrix, we discuss the monotone convergence of it. Finally, we report the numerical results of our proposed method.

Corrosion Assessment of some Buried Metal Pipes using Neural Network Algorithm

Corrosion Assessment of some Buried Metal Pipes using Neural Network Algorithm

B. A. Oladipo, O. O. Ajide, C. G. Monyei

Статья научная

The key aim of this assessment is to characterize the rate of corrosion of buried Nickel plated and non-plated AISI 1015 steel pipes using a Modified Artificial Neural Network on Matlab and taking the oil and gas area of Nigeria as a case study. Ten (10) metal specimens were used. Five (5) were nickel electroplated specimens buried differently in 5 plastic containers containing 5 different soil samples with the other 5 non-plated specimens also buried into the same 5 soil samples but different plastic containers. In carrying out the experiment, the data that was collected for 25 consecutive days were grouped into sets of input and output data. This was required so as to appropriately feed the modelling tool (Artificial Neural Network). The input data were; temperature of the soil sample, temperature of the immediate surroundings, and pH of the soil sample while the output data was weight loss. Conclusively, Modified Artificial Neural Network relationships between the varied selected input parameters that affects corrosion rate (soil sample temperature, immediate environment temperature and pH value) and the output parameter (Corrosion Penetration Rate) were derived. Also, soil sample temperature and the immediate surrounding temperature combined conditions had the strongest effect on corrosion penetration rate while the immediate surrounding temperature and the pH value combined conditions had the weakest effect on corrosion penetration rate.
