Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmbedded Computer Based Active Vibration Control System for Vibration Reduction of Flexible StructuresVenkata Ratnam Tatavolu, Seetha Ramaiah PanchumarthyResearch on Active Vibration Control System (AVCS) is being carried out to reduce structural vibrations caused by unwanted vibrations in many application areas such as in space, aircraft structures, satellites, automobiles and civil structures (bridges), particularly at low frequencies. The unwanted vibration may cause damage to the structure or degradation to the structure’s performance. The AVCS comprises physical plant, a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 Jun 2013 · 6,550 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInnate, Adaptive and Intrinsic Immunity in Human Immunodeficiency Virus InfectionSuneth S. Perera, Nitin K. SaksenaThe first line of defence of the innate immune system functions by recognizing highly conserved sets of molecular structures specific to the microbes, termed pathogen-associated molecular patterns, or PAMPs via the germ line-encoded receptors Pattern-Recognition Receptors (PRRs). In addition to the innate immune system, the vertebrates have also evolved a second line of defence termed adaptive immune system, which uses … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 27 Nov 2012 · 9,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach for 3D Range Image Segmentation using Gradient MethodDina A. Hafiz, Walaa M. Sheta, Sahar Bayoumi, Bayumy A.B. YoussefProblem statement: Segmentation of 3D range images is widely used in computer vision as an essential pre-processing step before the methods of high-level vision can be applied. Segmentation aims to study and recognize the features of range image such as 3D edges, connected surfaces and smooth regions. Approach: This study presents new improvements in segmentation of terrestrial 3D range images … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 19,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElastic-Plastic Non Linear Behaviors of Suddenly Loaded StructuresAssal Tehseen HusseinProblem statement: The adaptively shifted integration technique was applied to the elasticplastic analysis of framed structures under dynamic loading. Approach: This study used analysis of linear beam element, the reshifting of the of the integration points in the element is conducted in order to attain higher accuracy. Results: In nonlinear finite element analysis by the ASI technique, the highest computational … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethodology of Compliant Mechanisms and its Current Developments in Applications: A ReviewSolehuddin Shuib, M.I.Z. Ridzwan, A. Halim KadarmanTraditional rigid-body mechanisms consist of a number of components to implement their functions. Therefore they face problems such as backlash, wear, increase in part-count, weight, assembly cost and time, regular maintenance. Reducing these problems will help in increasing mechanism performance and cost reduction. Recently, there are several examples of compliant mechanisms that have been designed and widely used in various … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAdaptive Channel Estimation for Multiuser Underwater Communication SystemsS. Aliesawi, C. C. Tsimenidis, B. S. Sharif, M. JohnstonProblem statement: Multiple Access Interference (MAI) signals and poor estimation of the unknown channel parameters in the presence of limited training sequences are two of the major problems that degrade the systems’ performance. Two synchronous multiuser receivers with Rake reception of Interleave Division Multiple Access (IDMA) and Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) systems, in conjunction with channel estimation, are considered … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 20 Feb 2012 · 7,355 accessesView PDFCite
