Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComposition-Explicit Distillation Curves of Waste Lubricant Oils and Resourced Crude Oil: A Diagnostic for Re-Refining and EvaluationLisa Starkey Ott, Beverly L. Smith, Thomas J. BrunoProblem statement: We have recently introduced several important improvements in the measurement of distillation curves for complex fluids. The modifications include a composition-explicit data channel for each distillate fraction and temperature measurements that are true thermodynamic state points that can be modeled with an equation of state. The composition-explicit information is achieved with a sampling approach that allows precise qualitative … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Approach to Head positioning using Fixed Center Interpolation Net with Weight Elimination AlgorithmMahmoud Zaki IskandaraniA reliable algorithm for head movements inside a vehicle is designed. The proposed algorithm allowed the adjustment of basic functions such as indicators, mirrors and reverse lights based on the driver final head position. The algorithm system mapped a predefined coordinates for driver’s head that resulted in a computable geometry via a sensory system which is fed to the vehicle … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,305 accessesView PDFCite
