Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInput-Output Feedback Linearization Cascade Controller Using Genetic Algorithm for Rotary Inverted Pendulum SystemIraj Hassanzadeh, Saleh Mobayen, Abbas HarifiThe Rotary Inverted Pendulum (RIP) system is a significant classical problem of control engineering which has been investigated in the past decades. This study presents an optimum Input- Output Feedback Linearization (IOFL) cascade controller utilized Genetic Algorithm (GA). Due to the non-minimum phase behavior of the system, IOFL controller leads to unstable internal dynamics. Therefore a cascade structure is proposed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAerodynamic Noise Prediction Using stochastic Turbulence ModelingArash Ahmadzadegan, Mehran TadjfarAmongst many approaches to determine the sound propagated from turbulent flows, hybrid methods, in which the turbulent noise source field is computed or modeled separately from the far field calculation, are frequently used. For basic estimation of sound propagation, less computationally intensive methods can be developed using stochastic models of the turbulent fluctuations (turbulent noise source field). A simple and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSNL2Z: Tool for Translating an Informal Structured Software Specification into Formal SpecificationMohamed A. Sullabi, Zarina ShukurIn the area of software engineering there have been very few efforts to automate the translation from specifications written in natural language to the formal specification languages. Writing of the specifications in natural language is always depending on context and it is commonly vagueness; this represents the major reasons of the challenge. This paper discusses the design of a tool … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,145 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Pile- Soil Interaction Subjected to Lateral Loads in Layered SoilsA. Avaei, Abdoul R. Ghotbi, M. AryafarTo stabilize infrastructures such as tall buildings, bridges, etc., piles are used to resist lateral loads created from earth pressure, wind, waves and earthquake extensively. Pile design requires understanding of how the load is transferred from a pile to surrounding soil and vice versa. Pile properties, soil stress-strain behavior and pile-soil interaction play important roles in pile-response subjected to lateral … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractY: A New Component-Based Software Life Cycle ModelLuiz F. CapretzWith the need to produce ever larger and more complex software systems, the use of reusable components has become increasingly imperative. Of the many existing and proposed techniques for software development, it seems clear that component-based software development will be at the forefront of new approaches to the production of software systems and holds the promise of substantially enhancing the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Data Mining Model for Students’ Choice of College Major Based on Rough Set TheoryLuai Al-ShalabiLiterature is focusing on identifying factors that influence students’ initial choice of major and few have studied students’ involvements after registration in a selected major and this study is one of the few. This study aims to determine the important factors that influence high school students’ choice of major based on data mining techniques. A questionnaire was designed to collect … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 8 · 22 Aug 2019 · 7,831 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Researches Examines the Wing Shapes to Reduce Vortex and WakeNicolae Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuIt is common to see clouds in the form of the sky, known as contrails, which are behind the engines of a reaction plan. What is not always visible is a wind whirl that comes out of the top of each wing - like two small horizontal tornadoes - leaving behind a turbulent awakening behind the vehicle. Awakening is a … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jun 2018 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSOFTWARE PROCESS MATURITY AND CAPABILITY EVALUATION AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION IN THE AREAS OF E-LEARNING ORGANIZATIONSSenthilkumar Chennakrishnan, Midthe Vijayaraghavan SrinathA detailed literature review revealed that, most of the organizations develop their projects and associated software engineering activities using in-house established methods. There are discrete references in the literature on application of broad based scientific methods in designing and developing process capability and maturity models by software organizations. Documentation and extent of adherence to a well defined organized scientific method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 21 Dec 2013 · 6,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrength and Ductility of Randomly Distributed Palm Fibers Reinforced Silty-Sand SoilsS.M. Marandi, M.H. Bagheripour, R. Rahgozar, H. ZareThis paper investigates the resultant strength and ductility behavior when randomly distributed palm fibers are used to reinforce silty-sand soils. The composite soils were tested under laboratory conditions and examined for unconfined compression strength (UCS), California Bearing Ratio (CBR) and compaction test. The results indicated that; the maximum and residual strengths, orientation of surface failures, ductility and the stress-strain relationship … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,864 accessesView PDFCite
