Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Joint Flexibility on Overall Behavior of Jacket Type Offshore PlatformsMasoud Mirtaheri, Hossein Ali Zakeri, Pejman Alanjari, Mohammad Amin AssarehProblem Statement: Nonlinear behavior of offshore structure is attracting tremendous amount of attention in recent years. Response of these structures is strictly dependent upon behavior of their joints. Because of the lack of information about this part of a structure, most of the recent analysis and designs do not contain appropriate material in the case of joints. In most cases, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Double Layer Grids' Maximum Deflection Using Neural NetworksReza Kamyab Moghadas, Kok Keong ChoongEfficient neural networks models are trained to predict the maximum deflection of two-way on two-way grids with variable geometrical parameters (span and height) as well as cross-sectional areas of the element groups. Backpropagation (BP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural networks are employed for the mentioned purpose. The inputs of the neural networks are the length of the spans, L, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Convective Heat-Transfer Coefficient in a Buried ExchangerTaoufik Mnasri, Rached Ben Younès, Maher Raddaoui, Salem ElouraginiThis study presents analytical models allowing to study a forced convection laminar flow in non-established dynamic and thermic regimes. We treated a flow in a bitubular exchanger in permanent thermal contact with a semi-infinite medium, such as the ground. The wall temperature as well as the wall heat flux evolve in the course of time until a quasi-steady mode. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Housing RenewalM. Sitar, K. KrajncFollowing the already proved models the sustainable planning culture is endangering several methods directed towards the needs of tenants in the existing post-war housing stock. The case-study of our project is the renewal of the multi stored building in the housing estate Metalna, Maribor/Tezno (1949). It is based on the sustainable renovation principle for the quality of sustainable housing in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling of a Tactile Sensor with Applications in Minimally Invasive SurgeryAshkan Mirbagheri, Siamak Najarian, Javad Dargahi, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheThis paper describes mathematical modeling of a novel supported tactile sensor. This system has only three or four sensing elements instead of an array configuration. By writing a code, together with using the piezoelectric capabilities of the finite element analysis software, it is possible to extract the stresses developed in the tactile membrane along the edges of the sensing elements, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 7,186 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordImmunomodulatory and Antioxidant Activities of Selenium-Enriched Polysaccharides from Epimedium and Isatis IndigoticaRui Zhang, Jin Li, Jiajia ZhouThis study aims to investigate the effects of selenium modification on polysaccharides derived from two traditional Chinese medicinal herbs-Epimedium (Yinyanghuo) and Isatis root (Banlangen)-in enhancing immune function and antioxidant activity. The purpose is to explore the relationship between structure and function, providing a theoretical basis for the development of efficient plant-based functional antioxidants. Polysaccharides were extracted using an optimized enzymatic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2026 · 1,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDynamics Modelling of a Plate Vibrating in a Perfect FluidBouarroudj Nadra, Belaib LekhmissiWe deal with the interaction problem of a plate vibrating within a perfect fluid. We establish the equations describing the dynamics behaviour of the plate using the general equations of the elasto-dynamic. The fluid flow described by the equation of Euler’s low amplitude. We presented results of the existence, the unicity and the regularity of the problem verified by the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,896 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA HIGH B1 FIELD HOMOGENEITY GENERATION USING FREE ELEMENT ELLIPTICAL FOUR-COIL SYSTEMSidi M. Ahmed Ghaly, Sulaiman S. Al-SowayanDesign and testing of a prototype probe with high B1 magnetic field homogeneity that can be used for MRI is presented. It consists of four coaxial separately tuned rings of wire in a symmetric arrangement on an ellipsoidal surface. Compared to Helmholtz pair, which presents 2nd-order homogeneity, an improvement in field homogeneity is achieved, while preserving the simplicity of implementation. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Jan 2014 · 7,019 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGRAPH OF FINITE SEQUENCE OF FUZZY TOPOGRAPHIC TOPOLOGICAL MAPPING OF ORDER TWOMohamed Sayed, Tahir AhmadFuzzy Topographic Topological Mapping (FTTM) was built to solve the neuromagnetic inverse problem to determine the location of epileptic foci in epilepsy disorder patient. The model which consists of topological and fuzzy structures is composed into three mathematical algorithms. FTTM consists of four topological spaces and connected by three homeomorphisms. FTTM version 1 is also homeomorphic to FTTM version 2. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDurability Assessment of Cylinder Block for Two Stroke Free Piston Linear Engine using Random LoadingM. M. Rahman, A. K. Ariffin, S. Abdullah et al.This research presents the durability assessment of cylinder block for a two-stroke free piston engine using narrow band approach. The life prediction results are worthy for improving the component design at the very early developing stage. This approach is adequate for periodic loading, however, requires very large time records to accurately describe random loading processes. Fatigue damage in conventionally determined … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,454 accessesView PDFCite
