Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproximate Analytical Solutions For Time-Dependent Emden-Fowler-Type Equations By Variational Iteration MethodKhaled BatihaThe main objective of the current study was to solve the time-dependent Emden-Fowler-type equation with singular behavior. The technique used here was called the variational iteration method (VIM). The advantage of this work is twofold. Firstly, the VIM reduces the computational work. Secondly, in comparison with existing techniques, the VIM is an improvement with regard to its accuracy and rapid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQualitative Ferromagnetic Hysteresis ModelingM. Mordjaoui, M. Chabane, B. Boudjema, R. DairaIn determining the electromagnetic properties of magnetic materials, hysteresis modeling is of high importance. Many models are available to investigate those characteristics but they tend to be complex and difficult to implement. A new qualitative hysteresis model for ferromagnetic core presented, based on the function approximation capabilities of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). The proposed ANFIS model combined the neural … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,080 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Anti-windup Schemes for NCTF Control of Point-to-point (PTP) Positioning SystemsWahyudi, Riza Muhida, Momoh J.E. SalamiThe positioning systems generally need a controller to achieve high accuracy, fast response and robustness. In addition, ease of controller design and simplicity of controller structure are very important for practical application. For satisfying these requirements, NCTF (nominal characteristic trajectory following) controller has been proposed as a practical PTP positioning control. However, the effect of actuator saturation can not be … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTracking Error Analysis of a Rotation-Elevation Mode HeliostatOmar Aliman, Ismail Daut, Muzamir Isa, Mohd Rafi AdzmanFor the past few years, great efforts have been done in improving the tracking accuracy of a newly proposed rotation-elevation tracking mode heliostat. A special simulation program has been developed to systematically analyze the image movement and to find out the error of the parameters. In the simulation program, ray-tracing method was applied to work out the central point position … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmissivity of Triangular Surfaces Determined by Differential Method: From Homogenization to Validity Limit of Geometrical OpticsTaoufik Ghabara, Faouzi Ghmari, M. S. SifaouiGeometric optics approximation for emissivity from triangular surfaces was compared with exact scattering predictions from electromagnetic theory. Rigorous electromagnetic scattering theory was numerically formulated based on the differential method. We have used a numerical simulation of the emissivity of gold and tungsten for a wavelength equal 0.55 micron to explore the validity of the geometric optics.
