Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Interaction between the Lining of a TBM Tunnel and the Ground Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe support used when a tunnel is excavated by a shielded TBM is complex because it consists of two different materials: A concrete segmental lining and a filler annulus between the lining and the tunnel wall. A detailed analysis of the behavior of such a support system requires a three-dimensional numerical modeling and should also consider the presence of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Jun 2015 · 7,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating PowerWorld and MatLab for Optimal Dispatch and Unit Commitment Study of Competitive Electric Power MarketsDong Zhang, Shuhui LiThe transition to competitive wholesale and retail markets for electric utilities around the world has been a difficult and controversial process. One of the difficulties that hindered the development and growth of the competitive wholesale power market is the absence of efficient computational tools to assist the design, analysis and operation of a competitive power market. PowerWorld simulator is an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 23 May 2015 · 7,848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVALUATION OF THE ADEQUACY OF THE WIND SPEED EXTRAPOLATION LAWS FOR TWO DIFFERENT ROUGHNESS METEOROLOGICAL SITESDalila Khalfa, Abdelouaheb Benretem, Lazher Herous, Issam MeghlaouiIncreasing knowledge on wind shear models to strengthen their reliability appears as a crucial issue, markedly for energy investors to accurately predict the average wind speed at different turbine hub heights and thus the expected wind energy output. This is particularly helpful during the feasibility study to abate the costs of a wind power project. The extrapolation laws were found … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2014 · 7,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics of Coherent Structures in the Coupled Complex Ginzburg-Landau EquationsTat-Leung YeeProblem statement: In this study, we study the analytical construction of some exact solutions of a system of coupled physical differential equations, namely, the Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equations (CGLEs). CGLEs are intensively studied models of pattern formation in nonlinear dissipative media, with applications to biology, hydrodynamics, nonlinear optics, plasma physics, reaction-diffusion systems and many other fields. Approach: A system of two … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 6 Nov 2012 · 6,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSharp Transition Multiband Filter in Speech Processing Scheme for Hearing ImpairedJoseph X. Rodrigues, Lucy J. Gudino, K. R. PaiProblem statement: A simple analytical approach to the synthesis of a sharp transition, linear phase, multiband FIR filter is presented. The filter magnitude response is modeled using trigonometric functions of frequency. Approach: Employing variable density of ripple cycles in passband and stopband regions with large density of ripples cycles at the sharp transition edges, reduces the abrupt discontinuities at these … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2012 · 9,038 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Efficient Finite Element Software of Crack Propagation Simulation using Adaptive Mesh StrategyAbdulnaser M. Alshoaibi, A. K. Ariffin, M. N. AlmaghrabiThe purpose of this study is on the determination of 2D crack paths and surfaces as well as on the evaluation of the stress intensity factors as a part of the damage tolerant assessment. Problem statement: The evaluation of SIFs and crack tip singular stresses for arbitrary fracture structure are a challenging problem, involving the calculation of the crack path … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToward Clean Green Sustainable Development to Prevent the First Food World War, Changing Authoritative-Public Extension to Literalized-Partnership Extension SystemIraj MalakmohammadiProblem statement: The main purpose in this study is to provide a more rational platform in extension modeling to respond to the very recent world-wide warnings calling up for global revision of the present extension practices to put the appropriate science and technology to application to securing Clean-Green Sustainable Development (CGSD). Approach: To achieve this purpose, extension education was reconsidered … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Modeling of Laterally Loaded PilesS.T. Kok, Bujang B.K. HuatDesign of laterally loaded piles due to soil movement relies on a number of theoretical and numerical approaches. However, the magnitude of soil movement is difficult to estimate with reasonable confidence and accuracy. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) offers an excellent alternative to study pile-soil interaction and pile’s response under lateral loading due to soil movement. This research presents published analytical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,452 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeighting Spatial Information in GIS for Copper Mining ExplorationFarhad Hosseinali, Ali Asghar AlesheikhExploration of new mines is vitally important for human life. Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) can be effectively used in the gathering, weighting, analyzing and presenting spatial and attribute information to facilitate the mine exploration process. The success of mine exploration largely depends on: the identification of governing factors, the determination of their impacts and the selection of suitable models to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Thermal Contact using Nonlinear System Identification ModelsM.H. Shojaeefard, K. Goudarzi, A.R. Noorpoor, M. FazelpourOne interesting application of system identification method is to identify and control the heat transfer from the exhaust valve to the seat to keep away the valve from being damaged. In this study, two co-axial cylindrical specimens are used as exhaust valve and its seat. Using the measured temperatures at different locations of the specimens and with a semi-analytical method, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
