Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Plant Species Diversity and Physiographical Factors in Natural Broad Leaf ForestSeyed Armin HashemiProblem statement: Species diversity is one of the most important specifications of biological societies. Diversity of organisms, measurement of variety and examination of those hypotheses that are about reasons of diversity are such as affairs that have been desired by the ecologists for a long time. Approach: In this research, diversity of plant species in forest region, numbers of 60 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPneumatic and Hydraulic Systems in Coal Fluidized Bed CombustorZ. O. Opafunso, I. I. Ozigis, I. A. AdetundeProblem statement: This study designed the pneumatic and hydraulic systems in coal fluidized bed combustor. These are fluidization of silica sand bed material, Air distributor, centrifugal fan, electric motor power drive and surface heat exchanger. Approach: The effects of increased gas velocity on silica sand and the resultant drag force formed the basic equations in fluidization. Air distributor was introduced … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,717 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical and Analytical Study of Exhaust Gases Flow in Porous Media with Applications to Diesel Particulate FiltersSuleiman Abu-EinProblem statement: The importance of diesel particulate filter has been increased later because of its ability in making emission reduction of the exhaust gasses. Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) do two important jobs: gas emissions reduction and noise reduction, the pores spread inside the DPF store some gases and soot emissions and on the other side it prevents some sound or … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPublishing Geospatial Data through Geospatial Web Service and XML Database SystemPouria Amirian, Ali A. AlesheikhTechnically the spatial non-interoperability problem associated with current geospatial processing systems can be categorized as data and access non-interoperability. In GIS community, Open GIS Consortium (OGC) geospatial Web services have been introduced to overcome spatial noninteroperability problem associated with most geospatial processing systems. At the same time, in Information Technology (IT) world, the best solution for providing interoperability among heterogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysiological Response and Postmolt Performance of Laying Hens Molted by Non-Feed Removal MethodsFariborz Khajali, Saied Karimi, M.R. AkhariOne experiment was conducted to evaluate the physiological response and postmolt performance of laying hens subjected to non-feed removal molting programs. One hundred and eighty 78-week-old Hy-line W36 laying hens were distributed among 45 groups of four birds and located in cages so that mean body weight of each cage was very similar. Three adjacent cages were considered as a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,845 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFault Detection and Isolation in Dynamic Systems using Statistical Local Approach and Hybrid Least Squares AlgorithmBelkacem Athamena, Zina Houhamdi, Mohammed MuhairatA fault detection and isolation (FDI) scheme for dynamic system proposed. This study deals with the design of discrete-time linear system using delta operator approach and the hybrid least squares (HLS) algorithm. A third residual generation based on statistical local approach and the derivative of the normalized residual on a small temporal window investigated. This new technique meets the desired … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThickness Analysis of Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) Slab Compacted Using a Newly Developed Roller CompactorR. Muniandy, F.M. Jakarni, S. Hassim, A.R. MahmudPavement mix design procedures and specifications are usually derived from laboratory experiments. Therefore, laboratory experiments should be able to simulate to a high degree the conditions in the field, especially in term of compaction procedures. Based on literature reviews and analysis of past studies, it can be concluded that there are no exact method for laboratory compaction that can simulate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning of PID Controller for Discrete Time Linear System Using Balanced Approach Reduced Order ModelC.S. Ravichandran, S. Subha Rani, T. ManikandanModeling physical systems usually results in complex high-order dynamic models. It is often desirable to approximate these models by simpler models with reduced order. This study deals with the design of discrete time linear system using a balanced approach reduced order model. The reduced order model retains the desired state variable which contains a significant contribution. A PID controller is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of an Adaptive Control for a RobotIraj Hassanzadeh, Abbas Harifi, Farid ArvaniThis research investigates the performance of an adaptive controller for five-bar linkage robot. The proposed controller was entirely independent on the physical specifications of the robot. The controller was examined as the dynamics of the mechanical system varies for various environment conditions, which make it an ambiguous system. In this study, the introduced controller was designed based on the governing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 6,645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Simulator: An Educational Tool for Computer ArchitectureMihyar HessonThe great advancement in computer architecture and cache memory design and technology had a considerable influence on the way computer architecture was taught in universities. This requires students to be able to visualize the detailed activities that take place within a computer processor and its interaction with memory system. Computer simulators could effectively be used to enhance the understanding and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
