An experimental comparison of hitting mechanics in softball
To score points to win games, a softball team must be able to hit the ball with as the largest velocity as possible. In softball, there are two well-known hitting models, rotational and linear, yet little quantitative research has been done to determine which model produces the greatest ball …

Experimental comparison of schemes for interpreting Boolean queries
The standard interpretation of the logical operators in a Boolean retrieval system is in general too strict. A standard Boolean query rarely comes close to retrieving all and only those documents which are relevant to the user. An AND query is often too narrow and an 0 R query is often too broad. …

Analytical and experimental comparison of deterministic and probabilistic optimization
… question through laboratory experiments — such experimental validation is not currently available in the literature. A cantilevered truss structure is used as a test case. First, the uncertainties in stiffness and mass properties of the truss elements are evaluated from a large number of …

An experimental comparison of partitioning strategies in distributed graph processing
In this thesis, we study the problem of choosing among partitioning strategies in distributed graph processing systems. To this end, we evaluate and characterize both the performance and resource usage of different partitioning strategies under various popular distributed graph processing systems, …

Characterizing Flotation Response: A Theoretical and Experimental Comparison of Techniques
… Although some of these procedures have been experimentally compared, there remains considerable controversy as to which approach best approximates the ideal flotation response. In this investigation, modeling and simulation techniques are used in conjunction with experimental studies to …

An Experimental Comparison of Complex Objects Implementations in Big Data Systems
… suite of representative data management tasks, I experimentally evaluate the performance implications of a wide variety of complex object implementations. The choice of object implementation can have a profound effect on performance. For example, the same external sort to perform a duplicate …

Computational and Experimental Comparison of a Powered Lift, Upper Surface Blowing Configuration
… Circulation Control technology have shown poor comparison with experimental results. In Circulation Control experiments, typical results show a relationship between lift coefficient, CL, vs blowing momentum coefficient, Cμ. CFD analysis tend to over-predict values of CL due to gridding issues …

An experimental comparison of a ternary chord keyboard with the QWERTY keyboard
… uses a set of eight ternary (3 state) keys. An experimental comparison of the ternary chord keyboard (TCK) with the QWERTY keyboard was conducted. Two groups of subjects were selected to participate in the study. One group was assigned to the QWERTY keyboard and the other to the TCK. The two …

Experimental comparison of probabilistic methods and fuzzy sets for designing under uncertainty
… reliability. The second objective is to experimentally compare designs obtained using each method. A cantilevered truss structure is used as a test case. The truss is equipped with passive viscoelastic tuned dampers for vibration control. The structure is optimized by selecting locations …

An Experimental Comparison of the Feeding Value of Soy Bean with Alfalfa Hay for Feeding Dairy Cows
The tendency during the last few years has been to use more and more of the legumes for feeding dairy cows. Just a few years ago (1)”Dairymen near the Yakima Valley, Washington state, fed their cows nothing but alfalfa hay during the winter. The cows received 40 to 50 pounds of alfalfa per cow per …
