Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Liquefaction Return Period for Bangalore Based on Standard Penetration Test Data: Performance Based ApproachK. S. Vipin, T. G. SitharamProblem statement: The conventional liquefaction evaluation is based on a deterministic approach. However in this method the uncertainty in the earthquake loading is not properly taken into account. However recent research in this field indicates that this uncertainty in the earthquake loading has to be considered in the liquefaction potential evaluation. Moreover the evaluation of liquefaction return period is not … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Oxygen Transfer Correlations for Stirred Tank Bioreactor Agitated with Atypical Helical Ribbon ImpellerMohd Shamzi Mohamed, Rosfarizan Mohamad, Ramakrishnan Nagasundara Ramanan et al.Problem Statement: Mixing filamentous fungi entails delicate balance between promoting high volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa) while keeping low hydrodynamic stresses in the microenvironment of cultures. This study examined the oxygen transfer capability of a prototype low shear helical impeller as a potential replacement for the standard Rushton turbine. Approach: The dependence of kLa upon specific power uptake, superficial gas … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 9,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Manufacturing Stresses to Die Attach Film Performance In Quad Flatpack No-Lead Stacked Die PackagesM. F. Rosle, I. Abdullah, S. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Repeated heat cure during assembly processes affected the Die Attach Film (DAF) material properties and the effectiveness touched area that leads to weak die bonding and delamination. Suitable die attached condition and DAF material selection had been evaluated to achieve required reliability performance in the manufacturing of the 3D Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) stacked die package. Approach: During … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime-Dependent Behavior of Piles under Combined LoadingsMohd Raihan Taha, Qassun S. Mohammed Shafiqu, Zamri H. Chik, Jasim M. AbbasThis study investigates time-dependent lateral response of piles in elastoplastic soils under combined axial and lateral loadings. Mohr Coulomb model representing the soil and the finite element formulation were described and verified. The transient analysis of pile problem was then carried out and the results of the analysis were presented which demonstrate the effects of the consolidation process on the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,060 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Frequency Mode inside an Open Cavity for Different Shape RatioHallek Khouloud, Mourad Bouterra, Afif El Cafsi et al.A number of studies have referred to the existence of a vortex cell within an urban street canyon. The understanding of vortex dynamics or vorticity distribution is a such configuration is of great interest. This configuration was simulated by the interaction between a boundary layer and a cavity. Experimental characterization of the vortex structures evolution was developed by the technique … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeo-Seismic Environmental Aspects Affecting Tailings Dams FailuresJuan M. Mayoral, Miguel P. RomoSeismic performance evaluations of tailings dams are essential for characterizing the geo-environmental risks posed by these earthen structures, which should include the geotechnical hazards implied by slope instability failure, free board loss and the potential release of contaminants. The observed damage is more important when liquefaction occurs on the dam body and foundation, which often leads to cracking, settlements, tilting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Earthquakes on Some Kind of BuildingsJ. Alberto Escobar S., J. Antonio Mendoza, Roberto Gómez M.A new method that simplifies the current static seismic torsion design procedure for buildings is proposed. Distribution of the shear forces among the storey-resistant elements designed by torsion and of the factors which affect the design eccentricity, specially accidental eccentricity, are studied. It is demonstrated that the effect of accidental eccentricity is always additive for the structural elements. There is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlow of Temperature-dependent Viscous Fluid Between Parallel Heated Walls: Exact Analytical Solutions in the Presence of Viscous DissipationK. S. Adegbie, F. I. AlaoWe examine steady incompressible flow of viscous liquids between parallel heated walls of plane Couette device. The temperature of the upper and lower walls of the device are maintained at T = Tb and T = T0 respectively. Of a particular interest are exact analytical solutions of the coupled non-linear differential equations resulting from plane Couette flow obtained for the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFree Vibration Analysis of a Cross-Ply Laminated Composite Beam on Pasternak FoundationR. A. Jafari-Talookolaei, M. T. AhmadianIn this study, free vibration analysis of a cross-ply laminated composite beam (LCB) on Pasternak foundation was investigated. Natural frequencies of beam on Pasternak foundation are computed using finite element method (FEM) on the basis of Timoshenko beam theory. Effect of both shear deformation and rotary inertia are implemented in the modeling of stiffness and mass matrices. The model was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrasonic Study and Physical Properties of Borotellurite GlassesW.M. Daud, H. Zainul, Z.A. Talib et al.A series of glasses (TeO2)x (B2O3)1-x with x = 0.6, 0.63, 0.65, 0.70, 0.73, 0.75, 0.78 and 0.80 were synthesized by rapid quenching. Longitudinal and shear ultrasonic velocity were measured at room temperature and at 5 MHz frequency. Elastic properties, Poisson’s ratio and micro hardness have been calculated from the measured density and ultrasonic velocity at room temperature.
