Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Ink (Carbon)-Perovskite/Polyaniline Ternary Composite Electrode for Sodium Chloride SeparationSavita Dixit, Sandhya PalWe reported the synthesis of ink-perovskite/Polyaniline composite electrode material for the separation of sodium chloride solution. These electrode materials are prepared by in situ polymerization process of aniline in the presence of perovskite ceramic material with carbon catalyst surface. This material is having the highest conductivity as a cathode material, environmentally benign and low cost material. The structure and morphological … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 2 Sep 2015 · 7,385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Formulation for Active Composite LaminatesDragan Marinkovic, Manfred ZehnSmart structures are characterized by a synergistic integration of active materials into a passive structure connected by a control system to enable an automatic adaptation to changing environmental conditions. Piezoelectric materials are widely used as distributed sensors and actuators in smart structures, where especially hybrid composites - a combination of fiber-reinforced and piezoelectric laminae - are very powerful smart material … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 2 Jun 2015 · 7,778 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegration of Artificial Neural Network and Expert System for Material Classification of Natural Fibre Reinforced Polymer CompositesBasheer Ahmed Ahmed Ali, Mohd Sapuan Salit, Edi Syams Zainudin, Mohamed OthmanDiversified choice of materials from natural fibre reinforced polymer composites with similar properties complicate the materials selection for engineering products. Implementation of expert system alone makes it difficult to scrutinize the vast selected materials. Hybrid of expert system with neural network technology is desired. Classification of material through neural network under various criteria influences the decision in narrowing down the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,433 accessesView PDFCite
