Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Stress Analysis of the Arterial Wall Utilizing Physiological Pressure WaveformsM.M. Khani, M. Tafazzoli-Shadpour, S. Delavarpour et al.Arterial diseases, promoted by alterations in arterial wall properties, are among the main causes of mortality. Mechanical stresses of the arterial wall caused by pulsatile luminal pressure define arterial function in normal and pathological conditions. This study aims to determine dynamic stress distribution in the arterial wall subjected to physiological pressure waveforms. Finite element models of a typical artery are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of C*-Integral for Radial Cracks in Annular Discs under Constant Angular Velocity and Internal PressureA.R. Gowhari-Anaraki, F. Djavanroodi, S. ShadlouThe finite element method has been used to predict the creep rupture parameter, C*-Integral for single and double-edge cracks in eight annular rotating discs under constant angular velocity with and without internal pressure. In this study, a new dimensionless creeping crack configuration factor, Q* has been introduced. Power law creeping finite element analyses have been performed and the results are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of C*-Integral in Thin T-Sections Subjected to Projection and Remote Loading Base on Elastic Stress Concentration FactorA.R. Gowhari-Anaraki, F. Djavanroodi, S. ShadlouThe finite element method has been used to predict the creep rupture parameter, C*-Integral of flat T-section bar subjected to loaded projection and remote loading with a crack or crack-like flaw introduced in the fillet (i.e., high stress) region of the component. In this study, a new dimensionless creeping crack configuration factor, Q* has been introduced. Power low creeping finite … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,469 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Discretized Algorithm for Optimal Problems Constrained by Differential Equation with Real CoefficientsO. OlotuA discretized scheme, Discretized Continuous Algorithm (DCA), for solving constrained quadratic optimal control problems was developed to ease the computational cumbersomeness inherent in some existing algorithms, particularly, the Function Space A lgorithm (FSA) by replacing the integral by a series of summation. In order to accomplish this numerical scheme, we resort to a finite approximation of it by discretizing its … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality Monitoring Using Principal Component Analysis and Fuzzy Logic Application in Continuous Casting ProcessSalah Bouhouche, Malek Lahreche, Abdelkrim Moussaoui, Jürgen BastThis paper deals with non linear system monitoring, based on a combined use of Principal Components Analysis (PCA) and fuzzy logic to process and quality monitoring. PCA coupled to fuzzy logic was used to estimate the fault or defect according to the dynamic changes in the process inputs-outputs characterized by T2 Hoteling and Squared Prediction Error (SPE). Correlation between the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,238 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Thermal Explosion of Sensitized Reaction with Variable Heat LossK.S. Adegbie, F.I. AlaoThis study discusses the influence of heat loss on the critical ignition temperature and Frank-Kamenetskii parameter of a non-linear ordinary differential equation arising in thermal sensitized reaction. The reaction obeys the Arrhenius expression with temperature dependent pre-exponential factor, taking heat exchange between the reacting material and its surrounding into account. The consequences of heat loss are explored within the framework … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlow of Temperature-dependent Viscous Fluid Between Parallel Heated Walls: Exact Analytical Solutions in the Presence of Viscous DissipationK. S. Adegbie, F. I. AlaoWe examine steady incompressible flow of viscous liquids between parallel heated walls of plane Couette device. The temperature of the upper and lower walls of the device are maintained at T = Tb and T = T0 respectively. Of a particular interest are exact analytical solutions of the coupled non-linear differential equations resulting from plane Couette flow obtained for the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Study Using FE Code (PLAXIS) on the Geotechnical Behavior of Shell FootingsBujang B.K. Huat, Thamer A. MohammedThis study describes a study on the geotechnical behavior of shell footing using a non-linear finite element analysis with a finite element code, PLAXIS. The shell footing is found to have a better load carrying capacity compared with the conventional slab/flat footing of similar cross sectional area. The FE analysis also showed a reasonably good agreement with the laboratory experimental … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Partial Linearization of Byte Substitution Transformation of Rijndael-The AESY. Talwar, C. E.V. Madhavan, Navin RajpalRijndael-The AES[1-3] is 128-bit block cipher based on an elegant algebraic structure over F28. This cipher employs a simple approach to its substitution, permutation (SP) operations. We take a close look at its internals; the byte substitution transformation function is the only non-linear function in Rijndael - The AES. This transformation comprises of two steps operating on each byte. Here … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabric Behavior of Sand in Post-liquefactionSeyed Amirodin SadrnejadAn anisotropic plasticity model for post-liquefaction of the undrained behavior of sand is presented. The model incorporates the critical/steady state concept that postulates the existence of a state where sand continuously deforms at a certain constant effective stress depending two main parameters of both initial bulk parameters (void ratio or relative density) and the stress level (mean stress). The local … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,409 accessesView PDFCite
