Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectrical Properties of Novel Lead Zirconate/Synthetic Rubber Composite MaterialsChareumwut Pansa-Ard, Yanee Pornchaisiriarun, Nuchnapa TangboriboonProblem statement: Perovskite lead zirconate exhibits in an orthorhombic formation at a temperature below the Curie temperature, TC. Approach: The orthorhombic is non-centrosymmetric which is capable of spontaneous polarization (electronic, ionic and orientation), depending on their composition and volume fraction. Results: The results from FTIR spectroscopy, XRD patterns, and SEM indicate that the lead zirconate particles are dispersed in Acrylic … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 20 Feb 2012 · 7,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWireless Body Area Sensor Networks Signal Processing and Communication Framework: Survey on Sensing, Communication Technologies, Delivery and FeedbackKhalid Abu Al-Saud, Massudi Mahmuddin, Amr MohamedProblem statement: The Wireless Body Area Sensor Networks (WBASNs) is a wireless network used for communication among sensor nodes operating on or inside the human body in order to monitor vital body parameters and movements. This study surveys the state-of-the-art on Wireless Body Area Networks, discussing the major components of research in this area including physiological sensing and preprocessing, WBASNs … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 1 Nov 2011 · 9,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSliding Mode Observer-Based Fault Reconstruction for Uncertain Linear SystemsSlim Dhahri, Faycal Ben Hmida, Anis SellamiProblem statement: Fault reconstruction scheme is different from the majority of Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) methods described in the literature in the sense that it not only detects and isolates the fault, but provides an estimate of the fault. This approach is very useful for incipient faults and slow drifts, which are very difficult to detect. Also, this approach … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 8 Sep 2011 · 7,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObject Exploration Using a Three-Axis Tactile Sensing InformationS. C. Abdullah, Jiro Wada, Masahiro Ohka, Hanafiah YussofProblem statement: To advance the robust object recognition of robots, we present an algorithm for object exploration based on three-axis tactile data that is necessary and sufficient for the evaluation of contact phenomena. Approach: The object surface contour is acquired by controlling the finger position so that the normal force, measured by optical three-axis tactile sensors, remains constant as two … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,318 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Particle Swarm Optimization Based Edge Preserving Impulse Noise FilterS. Mohamed Mansoor Roomi, P.L. Muthu Karuppi, P. Rajesh, B. Guru RevathiProblem statement: Image sensors and communication channels often introduce impulse noise in image transmission. The most common filters available to remove such noise are median filter and its variants but the major drawbacks identified with them are blurring of edge detail and low noise suppression. To preserve the sharp and useful information in the image, the filtering algorithms are required … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSensorization of Robotic Hand Using Optical Three-Axis Tactile Sensor: Evaluation with Grasping and Twisting MotionsHanafiah Yussof, Jiro Wada, Masahiro OhkaProblem statement: Sensitization of robot hand is still remaining as crucial issue since most of robot hand systems nowadays are only capable to grasp a predefined specific object. It is still difficult for robot hand system to realize human-like tactile sensation. Some common problems in robot hand system are low accuracy sensing device, sensors are not robust enough for long … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Distributed Control System Using a Personal Computer and Micro Control Units for Humanoid RobotsMitsuhiro Yamano, Akihiro Ochiai, Yuichi Suzukawa et al.Problem statement: Humanoid robots have many motors and sensors and many control methods are used to carry out complicated tasks of the robots. Therefore, efficient control systems are required for the robots. Approach: This study presented a distributed control system using a Personal Computer (PC) and Micro Control Units (MCUs) for humanoid robots. Distributed control systems have the advantages that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEdge Tracing Manipulation of Clothes Based on Different Gripper TypesKhairul Salleh Mohamed Sahari, Hiroaki Seki, Yoshitsugu Kamiya, Masatoshi HikizuProblem statement: Edge tracing is considered important for deformable object manipulation in order to spread and reveal the original shape of an object before it can be sorted. It is important in unfolding clothes to reveal its original state during sorting. Tracing in this study context involved tracing the clothes edge, with the robot arm movement based on feedback from … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 8,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEco-Friendly Synthesis of Fucoidan-Stabilized Gold NanoparticlesKriengsak Lirdprapamongkol, Warangkana Warisnoicharoen, Suwicha Soisuwan, Jisnuson SvastiProblem statement: Metallic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are widely used in many applications including medical, pharmaceutical, diagnostics and sensors. The chemical synthesis of AuNPs normally requires synthetic materials which might cause the toxicological concerns.
