Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of the Unified Series-Shunt Compensator for Power Quality MitigationM. A. Hannan, A. Mohamed, A. Hussain, Majid al DabbayThis study describes the derivation of an analytical model and simulation for the unified series-shunt compensator (USSC) for investigating power quality in power distribution system. The USSC simulation comprises of two 12-pulse inverters which were connected in series and in shunt with the system. A generalized sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) switching technique was developed in the proposed controller for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMass Structure Deformation Monitoring using Low Cost Differential Global Positioning System DeviceRamin S. Azar, Helmi Z.M. ShafriIn this study, a technique for monitoring bridge deformation with the simplest GPS device available was demonstrated. The accuracy of these observations was evaluated and the best approach for this purpose was suggested. The device used was the low cost GS20 Leica single frequency GPS, which is a basic GPS receiver for this study. This study was done during March, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,799 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis and Optimization of Carbon Dioxide Emission Mitigation Options in the Cement IndustryMohammed Ba-Shammakh, Hernane Caruso, Ali Elkamel et al.The cement industry is responsible for approximately 5% of global anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions emitting nearly 900 kg of CO2 for every 1000 kg of cement produced. Effective control strategies to mitigate these emissions are discussed and a mathematical programming model able to suggest the best cost effective strategy is outlined. Control costs consisting of operating and investment costs along … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,387 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Variable Splitting Ratio Algorithm for Effective Load Balancing in MPLS NetworksG. Murugesan, A. M. Natarajan, C. VenkateshFast load balancing is of the highest importance to utilize the resources effectively and improve the performance of the Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) enabled Internet Protocol (IP) networks. Load balancing splits a part of traffic called splitting ratio from the maximum loaded path in to minimum loaded path. One very strong constrain in balancing the load is the tradeoff … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,340 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBy-pass Devices as Effective Means of Protection from the Hydraulic HammerKhalid S. Al-RababaSwitching-off the parallel working pump units causes sudden discharge changes in parallel pipe lines, as a result of that hydraulic shocks takes place. The damping of these shocks can be achieved by the installation of the by-pass devices between the parallel lines of the piping system. The analytical calculations demonstrate that the reduction in hydraulic shocks reaches 40% and considerable … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
