Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Abutment Displacement of a Full Height Integral Bridges in Dense Granule BackfillM. H. Alizadeh, A.R. Khalim Rashid, Zamri Chik, S. M. MirhosseinyProblem statement: In this study, the behavior of abutment wall in full height frame integral abutment bridges was investigated. It was seen that the effect of backfill soil resistance on behavior of abutment wall movement is mostly neglected in previous studies. In this research, the final bridge superstructure displacement under temperature-induced forces was formulated. In addition, according to the final … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2010 · 8,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling and Analysis of MRR, EWR and Surface Roughness in EDM Milling through Response Surface MethodologyA.K.M. Asif Iqbal, Ahsan Ali KhanProblem statement: Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) has grown over the last few decades from a novelty to a mainstream manufacturing process. Though, EDM process is very demanding but the mechanism of the process is complex and far from completely understood. It is difficult to establish a model that can accurately predict the performance by correlating the process parameters. The optimum … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2010 · 9,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Eclipsing X-Ray Binary System Centaurus X-3Omar Al-BanawiProblem statement: We present new physical and geometrical elements for the eclipsing X-ray binary system Krzemenski's star (Centaurus X-3). Approach: In this study, the procedure depended on getting the best fit between the observational photometric light curves and synthetic ones built up in accordance to the Roche model. Results: The estimated elements showed a good agreement with the early estimated … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction Studies for the Performance of a Single Cylinder High Speed Spark Ignition Linier Engine with Spring Mechanism as Return CycleA.Z.M. Fathallah, R.A. BakarProblem statement: Most concepts of linear engines were constructed as opposed pistons with complicated control devise to drive the engines. The advantage of the engines was their high overall efficiency. Approach: Although the efficiency was higher than conventional engine, however, it did not be applied yet, because the design of these engines was not only difficult to fabricate, but also … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarthquake Resistant Design of Reinforced Soil Structures Using Pseudo Static MethodB. Munwar Basha, G.L. Sivakumar BabuProblem statement: This study presented a method to evaluate the internal stability of reinforced soil structures against tension and pullout modes of failure using pseudo-static method for earthquake conditions. Approach: Using limit equilibrium method and assuming the failure surface to be logarithmic spiral, analysis was conducted to maintain internal stability against both tensile and pullout failure of the reinforcements. For … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,572 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study on the Performance Characteristics of Hydrogen Fueled Port Injection Internal Combustion EngineRosli A. Bakar, Mohammed K. Mohammed, M. M. RahmanThis study was focused on the engine performance of single cylinder hydrogen fueled port injection internal combustion engine. GT-Power was utilized to develop the model for port injection engine. One dimensional gas dynamics was represented the flow and heat transfer in the components of the engine model. The governing equations were introduced first, followed by the performance parameters and model … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Reliability and Productivity of an Aluminum Extruder by Implementation of Direct Torque Control TechnologyMazouz A. SalahatProblem statement: The linear motor drive is widely used in driving an extrusion puller in an aluminum extrusion industry. The main disadvantage of this drive is manual and step-wise torque control. This research was done to replace the linear motor drive by AC drive with direct torque control technology. Approach: Mathematical calculations were carried to select an AC drive which … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,267 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe New Variable-Length Key Symmetric CryptosystemDavood Rezaei Pour, Mohamad Rushdan Md Said, Kamel Ariffin Mohd Atan, Mohamed OthmanProblem statement: In this study, we proposed a new 64-bit block cipher that accepted a variable-length key up to 512 bits, which was suitable for implementation in a variety of environments. Approach: The cipher algorithm was a 16-round Feistel network with a bijective function f and was made up of two key-dependent 16×16 S-boxes, bitwise rotations, and a carefully designed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeed Estimation of Adaptive Fuzzy-Controlled Piezo-Electric Motor using MLP-Neural NetworkShebel ALSABBAH, Tariq MUGHRABIThe speed of ultrasonic motor of piezo-electric type is usually measured using mechanical sensors such as pulse encoders. However, these sensors are costly and bulky. In this paper, a numerical speed estimation approach of a piezo-electric motor (PEM) is implemented using multilayer perception neural network (MLP-NN). The proposed model evaluates rotational speed and load torque based on the amplitude and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRarefied Gas Flow Modeling inside Rotating Circular CylinderN. PourmahmoudIn this study a rarefied gas flow inside a rotating circular cylinder by means of direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is investigated. A rarefied gas is supposed to be contained in a cylindrical domain, bonded by a rotational cylinder with smooth and diffuse-reflection surface.
