Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Cycles of Thermal Fatigue in Steel Metallurgical Aspects ASTM SA-516 Grade 60Eder Hermes Bicharra, Jorge Luis Braz Medeiros, Luciano Volcanoglo Biehl et al.The ASTM SA-516 steel has applications in compact steam boilers of low and medium temperature and pressure. Deterioration can show when exposed to high temperatures due to fuel gases burning. Failures detected by inspections done in a frequency required by standard on the boilers. Among the main failure mechanisms found in materials used in boilers, creep, corrosion, when subjected to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 6,985 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBritish Airways is Ordering up to 42 Boeing 777-9s Aeronaves to Modernize the UK Flag Carriers Long-Haul FleetRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuThe Boeing 777 (sometimes referred to as Triple 7) is a large-capacity subsonic long-haul bomber aircraft built by the American company Boeing. This type of aircraft holds the current record of autonomy for commercial jets (17,450 km without food). Other special features of the aircraft include the perfect circular fuselage, a set of six wheels on each axle of the … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 19 Feb 2020 · 7,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Varying Loads on Wear Behaviour of Constructional SteelAlo Francis Ireti, Emordi Ngozi, Kunle Michael Oluwasegun et al.This study examined the effect of varying loads on wear behaviour of Ife constructional steel. The wear measurements were determined under normal ranging from 5 to 25 N at interval of 5 N incremental. The morphology of the corroded samples were carried out using optical microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). When a load of 5 N was used, the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2018 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Golden Red Sodium Calcium Silicate GlassesWang Cheng-Yu, Wun Nuan-Xin, Ge Yi et al.Traditional golden red glasses were based on K2O-PbO-SiO2 composition system. In this paper, we reported new golden red glasses based on Na2O-CaO-SiO2 system without SnO2 and PbO in them. By using a spectrophotometer and chromamter color difference meter, it was found that the new glasses had similar optical properties to the traditional ones. The diameter of the gold particles in … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 13 Feb 2019 · 7,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA VISION-BASED TRAVELLED DISTANCE ESTIMATION ALGORITHM IN AN INDOOR ENVIRONMENT USING A MOBILE ROBOTMamadou Diop, Chot Hun Lim, Tien Sze Lim, Lee-Yeng OngAutonomous navigation for a mobile robot still remains as a challenging area to be explored. In an indoor environment, while GPS is unavailable and wheel encoder suffer from error accumulation due to wheel slips, vision-based travelled distance estimation can be considered as an alternative approach for more accurate measurements. This study presents a new algorithm to estimate travelled distance of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Dec 2014 · 8,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModification of Carbon Steel by Laser Surface Melting: Part II: Effect of Laser Beam Power on Microstructural Features and Surface HardnessHashem F. El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe surface hardness has an important effect on the wear resistance of different materials. The present study aims to improve the surface hardness of carbon steel through the application of laser surface melting with suitable conditions. The laser beam power and travelling speed are the main factors that affect the properties of the treated zone. In this study, three different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2014 · 7,208 accessesView PDFCite

El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe present study aims to improve the surface hardness of carbon steel by application of laser surface melting of effective conditions. The travelling speed of laser beam during this treatment is one of the important treatment conditions. This study aims to investigate the effect of laser surface melting with different beam speeds on macro and microstructure as well as the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2014 · 7,400 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCustomer-Made 3×3 Polymer Optical Fiber Splitter Based on Green Technology using Fusion TechniqueMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Nik Nur Syahirah Mohammad, Hadi Guna et al.Problem statement: Polymer Optical Fiber (POF) has many advantages making it the choice of today’s communication, especially in automotive industry. This communication requires low cost ways for much information to be sent simultaneously. Because of this, using Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) concept, a low cost and green 3×3 POF splitter is fabricated. It is fabricated using cheap and easy-to-find tools … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 11 Feb 2012 · 6,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObject Exploration Using a Three-Axis Tactile Sensing InformationS. C. Abdullah, Jiro Wada, Masahiro Ohka, Hanafiah YussofProblem statement: To advance the robust object recognition of robots, we present an algorithm for object exploration based on three-axis tactile data that is necessary and sufficient for the evaluation of contact phenomena. Approach: The object surface contour is acquired by controlling the finger position so that the normal force, measured by optical three-axis tactile sensors, remains constant as two … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
