Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWater Hammer Analysis by Characteristic MethodA.R. Lohrasbi, R. AttarnejadRapid changes in the velocity of fluid in closed conduits generate large pressure, which are transmitted through the system with the speed of sound. When the fluid medium is a liquid the pressure surges and related phenomena are described as water hammer. Water hammer is caused by normal operation of the system, such as valve opening or closure, pump starts … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Robust Decentralized Control for UPFC Controller Based on Structured Singular ValueSeyed Abbas Taher, Shahabeddin Akbari, Ali Abdolalipour, Reza HemattiNew approach based on structured singular value (µ-synthesis) was proposed for the robust decentralized unified power flow controller (UPFC) design. To achieve decentralization, using the Schauder fixed point theorem the synthesis and analysis of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) control system translated into a set of equivalent multi-input single-output (MISO) control system. Power systems similar to other industrial plants contain different kinds … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Canadian Regulations and Remediation Methods for Diesel Oil Contaminated SoilsD. G. Rushton, A E. Ghaly, K. MartinellDiesel fuel released into the environment can contaminate ground water, degrade potable water supplies and cause the collapse of fisheries. They are toxic to both animals and humans and can affect the liver, lungs, kidneys, and nervous system leading to cancer as well as immunological and reproductive effects. The objectives of this study were to review current Canadian regulations pertaining … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 8,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupplying a Common Distribution Load through Two Different SourcesM. H. Naeem, K. P. BasuPhase angle difference between any two Busbar voltages of a big power system varies with the loading and operating condition of the power system. Supplying a common distributed load from these two phase shifted sources needs the application of a controlled phase shifter. Three-phase tapped autotransformer connected in delta with properly controlled variation of input and output tap settings may … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach to Model Concentrating PV Cells Under Non-Uniform IlluminationHang Zhou, Yuehong Su, Gang Pei et al.Concentrating PV (CPV) cells are often designed optimally depending on solar concentrator characteristics and operating conditions to ensure the best system performance. Before reaching a PV cell, solar radiation may experience some optical losses caused by the different physical phenomena occurring in a solar concentrator. A particular issue with the CPV technology is the non-uniformity of the concentrated radiation, which … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2017 · 7,144 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuture Medicine Services RoboticsRelly Victoria V. Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion T. PetrescuIt is an entry technique in use recently, albeit in selected centers and represents a further step in the field of minimally invasive surgery. Basically it has the same indications but, at present, is reserved for selected patients. Compared to traditional video-assisted surgery presents some important differences. The surgeon is physically distant from the operative field and sits at a … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 26 Nov 2016 · 8,893 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Magnetorheological Finishing Machine for Small-Bore Part of Irregular Shape and Experimental StudyWang Tingzhang, Chen Mingjun, Liu Henan, Xu JiangMagnetorheological finishing machine tool with small ball-end permanent-magnet polishing head is proposed as a method to solve the problem that small-bore parts of irregular shape with small curvature radius concave surface cannot be polished by traditional magnetorheological finishing machine tool. The four-axis linkage magnetorheological finishing machine tool with modular open numerical system and easy-operating man-machine interactive interface is developed. Then … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 26 Jun 2015 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOGAS PROCTION FROM ANAEROBIC CO-DIGESTION OF COW DUNG AND ORGANIC WASTES (NAPIER PAK CHONG I AND FOOD WASTE) IN THAILAND: TEMPERATURE EFFECT ON BIOGAS PRODUCTLertluck Saitawee, KanokornHussaro, Sombat Teekasap, Noppadon CheamsawatBiogas production has been attracting increasing attention as a biofuel of the future because biogas technology not only constitutes a biofuel source, but also can be applied in the various environmental pollutants. Anaerobic digestion of high solid slurries (such as food waste and cow dung) is typically performed in continuously reactor (by force substrate flow) to avoid problems with a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 1 Apr 2014 · 8,143 accessesView PDFCite
