Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultimode Controller Design for DSTATCOM integrated with Battery Energy Storage for Smart Grid ApplicationsSai Pranith, T.S. BhattiA Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) can provide reactive power support, power factor correction and voltage regulation to a distribution system feeder. In this paper, a multimode multifunctional control algorithm is proposed for the controller of the Voltage Source Converter (VSC) to provide DSTATCOM and load leveling functionalities for smart grid applications through a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) connected to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 26 Oct 2017 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Dimensional Investigation of Mode I Stress Intensity Factor Variations in Crack Front Using Finite Element MethodM. M. MirsayarOverall failure may occur in many engineering structures due to the initiation and growth of cracks. Stress intensity factors are extensively used to investigate crack growth in Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM). In many cracked specimens, the stress singularity varies through the thickness and therefore, investigation of stress intensity factor variation in crack front and determination of its maximum value … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,331 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractECONOMIC AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF STOCHASTIC MODEL ON A BASE TRANSCEIVER SYSTEM CONSIDERING VARIOUS OPERATIONAL MODES AND CATASTROPHIC FAILURESRajeev Kumar, Sunny KapoorIn this study a stochastic model for a Base Transceiver System (BTS) is proposed that consists of various hardware and software components. A Base Transceiver System (BTS) may undergoes four modes during its operation viz normal, congestion, down and failure mode. The hardware and software components may have various types of major and minor faults. The occurrence of a minor … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 22 Jul 2013 · 7,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Swimmer Bars as Shear Reinforcement in Reinforced Concrete BeamMoayyad Al-Nasra, Naem Asha, Abdelqader Najmi, Taher Abu-LebdehThe behavior of reinforced concrete beams at failure by shear is distinctly different from their behavior by bending, which is considered to be unsafe mode of failure. The shear failure of beams is usually sudden without sufficient advanced warning and the diagonal cracks that develop due to excess shear forces are considerably wider than the flexural cracks. The cost and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 8,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Fly Negotiation for Urgent Service Level Agreement on Intercloud EnvironmentNawfal A. Mehdi, Ali Mamat, Hamidah Ibrahim, Shamala K. SubramaniamProblem statement: Impatient jobs are the jobs that have strict constraints in starting and completion time and need a fast response and attention in mapping to resources. The negotiation process in cloud computing needs a customer-provider agreement that leads to loss of a significant amount of time for impatient jobs. The huge increasing in cloud service providers makes selecting the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 11 Aug 2011 · 7,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeart Rate Variability Analysis in Different Age and Pathological ConditionsM.E.S. Chelladurai, N. KumaravelProblem statement: Heart Rate Variability (HRV) has been used as a measure of mortality primarily with patients who had undergone cardiac surgery. The analysis of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) demands specific capabilities which are not provided either by parametric or nonparametric conventional estimation methods. The Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) adaptively estimates the Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) of nonlinear nonstationary signals. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 4 Aug 2011 · 6,818 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign For Test Technique for Leakage Power Reduction in Nanoscale Static Random Access MemoryN. M. Sivamangai, GunavathiProblem statement: As technology scales down, the integration density of transistors increases and most of the power is dissipated as leakage. Leakage power reduction is achieved in Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) cells by increasing the source voltage (source biasing) of the SRAM array. Another promising issue in nanoscaled devices is the process parameter variations. Due to these variations, higher … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 15 Jul 2011 · 6,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beam Strengthened by Transverse External Post-tensionSayan Sirimontree, Boonsap Witchayangkoon, Nathavudh Khaosri, Jaruek TeerawongProblem statement: Shear failure of concrete beam is brittle manner without warning so inadequate design for shear of beam and/or material deterioration lead to the possibility of sudden failure of beam. The change of functional use and future increased load of structure lead to the need for strengthening of concrete structure. Approach: This research focuses on behaviors under static loading … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,863 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Oil Contamination on Geotechnical Properties of Basaltic Residual SoilZulfahmi Ali Rahman, Umar Hamzah, Mohd. Raihan Taha et al.Problem statement: Oil contamination due to accidental spillage or leakage brings hefty damage to the environments. It percolates steadily into subsurface environments and contaminates the soil and water system. Hydrocarbon contamination has not just affected the quality of the soil but will also alter the physical properties of oil-contaminated soil. Approach: This study presented the geotechnical properties of oil-contaminated soils … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 10,265 accessesView PDFCite
