This paper presents an environment-friendly adsorption chiller using Zeolite FAM Z01–water pair as opposed to the conventional silica gel and water pair. The adsorbent, zeolite, is thinly coated onto the surfaces of fin-tube heat exchanger for faster rates of heat and mass transfer. Another...

Improved kernel-based estimates of integrated squared density derivatives are obtained by reinstating non-stochastic terms that have previously been omitted, and using the bandwidth to (approximately) cancel these positive quantities with the leading smoothing bias terms which are negative. Such...

The sliced mean variance–covariance inverse regression (SMVCIR) algorithm takes grouped multivariate data as input and transforms it to a new coordinate system where the group mean, variance, and covariance differences are more apparent. Other popular algorithms used for performing graphical...

We present a new Stata estimation program, mboxcox, that computes the normalizing scaled power transformations for a set of variables. The multivari- ate Box–Cox method (defined in Velilla, 1993, Statistics and Probability Letters 17: 259–263; used in Weisberg, 2005, Applied Linear Regression...
