Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer to Analyze Heavy Metals in Moss SamplesMohd Zahari Abdullah, Ahmad Saat, Zaini HamzahProblem statement: Mosses had been widely used as bioindicator especially to study the levels of trace metals pollutants in the surrounding ambient air because of their high efficiency to accumulate heavy metals contamination. There had been increasing demand to get a suitable analytical tools to determine the chemical contents of moss samples in this type of media. This study was … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReal-Time Optimal Control for Rotary Inverted PendulumViroch Sukontanakarn, Manukid ParnichkunProblem statement: The rotary inverted pendulum system was a highly nonlinear model, multivariable and absolutely unstable dynamic system. It was used for testing various design control techniques and in teaching modern control. The objectives of this study were to: (i) Develop a real rotary inverted pendulum which derived the mechanical model by using Euler-Lagrange and (ii) Design controller algorithm for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermodynamic Investigation of Two-Stage Absorption Refrigeration System Connected by a CompressorL. Kairouani, E. Nehdi, R. B. IffaThe present work is to analyze a two-stage cycle based on the ammonia-water absorption system, with intermediate compression. The two generators of the system are heated by geothermal energy at low temperature. The study shows that this system makes it possible at lower generator temperature, under the limits permitted by the systems suggested up to now. For Tg = 335 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Moisture Content on Thermal Properties of Adobe Bricks as a Sustainable Building MaterialSuleman Modu NgaramThe adobe is a widely used traditional material in popular building construction in rural areas of Northeastern, Nigeria and more generally in African countries. In order to increase comfort and energy efficiency of buildings, it is necessary to better consider the thermal properties of the adobe. Adobes at different locations as a function of moisture content have been studied. Thermal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2020 · 10,260 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comprehensive Analysis of Simulated results for the Performance of AODV and TORA Routing Protocols in Mobile Ad-hoc NetworksVelmurugan Thambusamy, Navitha SrinivasanA Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is underpinning less system of movable devices connected by wireless links. Every device in MANET moves arbitrarily on any path with no impediments and this free movement helps in transforming its links to new devices promptly and unpredictably. MANETs do not require a predefined arrangement or centralized administration to interconnect with each other. This research … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 2 May 2019 · 7,481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Testing of Screw Turbines for Flat Flow with Uneven Blade DistancesYulianto, Bambang Priyadi, Fathoni, Hari SuciptoIt is an innovative thing to design turbines that are compatible with flat-flow water energy. The turbine that was chosen is a turbine screw model with a non-uniform blade slope. The turbine made with a stator consists of a collector pipe and a quick pipe as a nozzle and a screw-shaped rotor with varying blade spacing. The results of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2019 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEquilibrium Studies and Optimization of Phosphate Adsorption from Synthetic Effluent Using Acid Modified Bio-SorbentBabayemi Akinpelu Kamoru, Onukwuli Okechukwu DominicAdsorption potential of periwinkle shell (PRW), an agricultural waste, for the removal of phosphate from aqueous solution was investigated through equilibrium studies at various experimental conditions. PRW was carbonized and chemically activated with 1MH2SO4 before it was subjected to characterization using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Adsorption data were analyzed using various … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2017 · 7,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Quality of Transport and Environmental Protection, Part IRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Aversa Raffaella, Samuel Kozaitis et al.The today main challenge to protect the environment through the development of new and more efficient transportation systems is presented. The absolutely necessary goods distribution and human transfers are polluting and damaging the environment and new solution should be envisaged; the conflicting strategies to adopt new types of environment friendly transportation while maintaining operative the more economically convenient, but largely … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Sep 2017 · 7,818 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of RSA Exponential Key Growth on the Multi-Core Computational ResourceMohamad A. Mohamed, Ammar Y. Tuama, Mokhairi Makhtar et al.Cryptography has been widely used as a mean to secure message communication. A cryptosystem is made up of a publicly available algorithm and a secretly kept key. The algorithm is responsible for transforming the original message into something unintelligible. The result of losing the key or cracked algorithm can be catastrophic, where all secret communications will be known to adversaries. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Nov 2016 · 7,830 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCyclic Prefix Length Determination for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing System over Different Wireless Channel Models Based on the Maximum Excess Delay SpreadAmar Al-Jzari, Kostanic IvivaCyclic Prefix (CP) is one of the key OFDM parameters. It is used to completely eliminate both Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) and Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) as long as the CP length is greater than the channel delay spread. By eliminating the ISI and ICI, the CP compensates for the effect of the multi-path dispersion; but it consumes a considerable amount of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 13 Apr 2015 · 8,570 accessesView PDFCite
