Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeometric Optimization of Three-Phalanx Prosthesis Underactuated Fingers using Particles Swarm AlgorithmSomar M. Nacy, Shaker S. Hassan, Sadeq Hussein BakhyProblem statement: One are now interested to investigate the optimum design procedure for a finger driving mechanism to have a good configuration of the finger for its utilization in hand prosthesis. A Geometric Optimization of Three-Phalanx Prosthesis Underactuated Fingers (TPPUF) based on a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) was presented. Approach: Firstly, a numerical evaluation of the human-like motion was obtained … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,701 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Power Control with Overhearing Avoidance for Wireless Sensor NetworksM. Ramakrishnan, P. Vanaja RanjanProblem statement: Extending lifetime of the battery operated wireless sensor nodes through the design of low power medium access control protocols dealt in this study. Approach: In this study energy efficient Optimal Power Control MAC with Overhearing Avoidance (OPC-OA) was proposed. The transmission power of every node was dynamically changed for the optimal connectivity between nodes. The optimal transmission power … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoltage Collapse Risk Associated to Under-Voltage Capacitive Compensation in Electric Power System OperationHeraldo Silveira Barbuy, Alexandre Rocco, Luiz Augusto Pereira Fernandes, Geraldo Caixeta GuimarãesProblem statement: In the operation of an Electric Power System (EPS), it has been usual to provide reactive power injection to avoid an under-voltage bus condition. In some situations an adequate voltage profile will not be a guarantee against Voltage Collapses (VCs) that may cause blackouts as seen in many occurrences around the world. The repeatedly injection of reactive power … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReduced Order Models of a Current Source Inverter Induction Motor DriveIbrahim K. Al-AbbasProblem Statement: The current source inverter induction motor (CSI-IM) drive was widely used in various industries. The main disadvantage of this drive was nonlinearity and complexity. This work was done to develop a simple drive systems models. Approach: The MATLAB/SIMULINK software was used for system modeling. Three reduced models were developed by choosing specific frame, neglecting stator transients and ignoring … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Solution of Fourth Order Linear Ordinary Differential Equations by Cubic Spline Collocation Tau MethodO.A. Taiwo, O.M. OgunlaranProblem Statement: Many boundary value problems that arise in real life situations defy analytical solution; hence numerical techniques are desirable to find the solution of such equations. New numerical methods which are comparatively better than the existing ones in terms of efficiency, accuracy, stability, convergence and computational cost are always needed. Approach: In this study, we developed and applied three … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Solution of Linear Integro-Differential EquationsHusein Jaradat, Omar Alsayyed, S. Al-SharaProblem Statement: Integro-differential equations find special applicability within scientific and mathematical disciplines. In this study, an analytical scheme for solving Integrodifferential equations was presented. Approach: We employed the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) to solve linear Fredholm integro-differential equations. Results: Error analysis and illustrative examples were included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the technique. MATLAB 7 was used to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVector Control of a Variable Reluctance Machine Stator and Rotor Discs ImbricatesAbdelhamid BoucettaThis study was devoted, in its first part, to the configuration and the modelling of the Imbricate Discs Variable Reluctance Machine (IDVRM), which was simplified with the assumption of stator structure alike to that of the synchronous machine, leading to the possibility of using the PARK's transformation. Then, a vector control strategy, which maintains a constant saturation level in the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultistage Development of Müller-Achenbach model for Shape Memory AlloySimin Ataollahi Oshkovr, Nik Abdullah Nik Mohamed, Che Husna Azhari et al.This research focused on the conceptual development of constitutive Müller-Achenbach model and proceeds to construct a model based on phase transition under changing temperature and load for variants of martensite in shape memory alloy CuAlNi (Copper-aluminum-nickel). Problem statement: Motivation of this research is rare information of a variant of martensite phase (M++) and prediction of the shape recovery of shape … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmall Size and Dual Band of a Quadratic Koch Dipole Fractal Antenna DesignFawwaz J. Jibrael, Faez F. Shareef, Wafaa S. MummoThe performance and analysis of a small size, low profile and dual band quadratic Koch curve dipole antenna was introduced.
