Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign and Optimization of a 1.55 µm Waveguide Based on Silicon Planar Photonic CrystalsR. Bchir, A. Bardaoui, M. Machhout et al.Background: Silicon based Planar Photonic Crystals (PPC) are used for the design of a 1.55 µm waveguide. Line defects are then formed in the PPC structures, by removing rows of holes, to obtain a Planar Photonic Crystal Waveguide (PPCW). Objective: First, we varied the thickness of the Silicon slab and the pore radius in order to obtain optimum design parameters … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMathematical Model of 4-Quadrant DC Electric Drive with 6-Pulse Dual ConverterKosmas ZdrozisMathematical model simulating the operation of DC electric drive hoisting mechanism has been developed. The study illustrates the capabilities of the developed model for investigation both normal and abnormal modes of operation of the converter and the supplying voltage. Large attention was given to the thyristor converter and its firing system so that fast-proceed micro-processes occurring in the converter can … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSeismic Design of Masonry and Reinforced Concrete Infilled Frames: A Comprehensive OverviewMarina L. MorettiDespite the extensive research on the seismic behavior of infilled frames since 1960’s, there is no general consensus towards a unified approach. Purpose of this study is to review the existing analytical and experimental research, as well as code provisions, on masonry and on reinforced concrete infilled frames. The basic characteristics of infilled frames and how these affect seismic performance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2015 · 8,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINTEGRATION OF POKA YOKE INTO PROCESS FAILURE MODE AND EFFECT ANALYSIS: A CASE STUDYA. P. Puvanasvaran, N. Jamibollah, N. NorazlinThe Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a one of the requirements which was required by the Automotive Industries Action Group (AIAG) to all the automotive suppliers and manufacturers worldwide through the TS16949 Quality System. There were a lot of dicrepencies detected on implementing the FMEA which directly related to the user experinces and knowledge. The descrepencies cause the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 24 May 2014 · 13,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign Analysis of An Electromagnetic Band Gap Microstrip AntennaM.S. Alam, M.T. Islam, N. MisranProblem statement: Wideband compact antenna is highly demandable due to the dynamic development in the wireless technology. Approach: A simple, compact EBG microstrip antenna is proposed in this study that covers a wideband of 250 GHz and the design is conformal with the 2.45 GHz ISM band (WLAN, IEEE 802.11b and g)/Bluetooth/RFID applications. Results: A 6×6 array of square unit … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 27 Oct 2011 · 7,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTesting Image Encryption by Output Feedback (OFB)Yas A. AlsultannyWhen it is necessary to securely transmit data in open networks, the encryption must be performed. Most of the cryptographic algorithms were mainly developed for text data. Unfortunately, algorithms those are good for textual data might not suitable for image. The OFB mode of encryption implemented to test five images of different resources, by using three combinations (schemes): a combination … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMinimization of Load Oscillations in Travelling Mechanisms of CranesKamal KhandakjiThe paper presents an analysis of suspended load (cargo) oscillations in traveling mechanisms of cranes. A special control algorithm has been developed in order to get minimum cargo oscillations in minimum transient time. Mathematical model simulating the effect of the suggested control algorithm on cargo oscillations has been developed. Two power electronic circuits applicable for AC drives with three-phase induction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,672 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMCMC-Fuzzy: A Fuzzy Metric Applied to Bayesian Network Structure LearningBeatriz Wilges, Ademar Crotti Junior, Silvia Modesto NassarBayesian network structure learning is considered a complex task as the number of possible structures grows exponentially with the number of variables. Two main methods are used for Bayesian network structure learning: Conditional independence, a method in which a structure is created consistently with independence tests performed on data; and the heuristic search method that explores the structure space. Hybrid … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 24 Aug 2018 · 8,243 accessesView PDFCite
