Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCalibration Coefficients for Residual Stress Measurement in Composite Materials Using Finite Element MethodA. G. Ghasemi, M. AkbarzadehProblem statement: Since the residual stresses can cause a scienificant reduction in strength of the mechanical components, having a semi-destructive measuring method that would predict and model theses stresses would be an advantage. The hole drilling method has been used, by many researches, for measurement of the residual stresses in different materials. In this article, the finite element method is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2012 · 9,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParticle Swarm Optimization Approach for Optimal Design of Switched Reluctance MachineMahadevan Balaji, Vijayarajan KamarajProblem statement: Switched Reluctance Motors (SRMs) are widely used in various applications due to their inherent simplicity and rugged construction In SRM, torque output and torque ripple are sensitive to stator and rotor pole arcs and their selection is a vital part of SRM design process. In this study Particle Swarm Optimization technique is proposed for determining optimum pole arc … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,328 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Two Interacting Localized Defects on the Critical Load for Thin Cylindrical Shells Under Axial CompressionAbdellatif Khamlichi, Jalal El Bahaoui, Larbi El Bakkali et al.Problem statement: Many modern structures are made from thin shells. Design of these elements depends to a large extent on their buckling behavior which is hugely affected by the initial geometric imperfections. Approach: For axially compressed isotropic circular cylindrical shells, axisymmetric localized geometric imperfections were found to reduce severely the buckling strength. Among various axisymmetric shapes of localized defects that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInteraction between Cadmium and Calcium in Human Blood at the SmokersLulzim Zeneli, Nexhat Daci, Hidajet Paçarizi, Majlinda Daci-AjvaziProblem statement: Defining of correlation between toxic and essential elements in human beings is an important clinical screening procedure. Approach: The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between cadmium as toxic element and calcium as an essential element in the blood at the smokers. We have investigated 50 human blood samples of different ages and genders (age: … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,860 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Earthquakes on Some Kind of BuildingsJ. Alberto Escobar S., J. Antonio Mendoza, Roberto Gómez M.A new method that simplifies the current static seismic torsion design procedure for buildings is proposed. Distribution of the shear forces among the storey-resistant elements designed by torsion and of the factors which affect the design eccentricity, specially accidental eccentricity, are studied. It is demonstrated that the effect of accidental eccentricity is always additive for the structural elements. There is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing Semantic Web Retrieval Through Ontology-Driven Feature Extraction: A Novel PropositionMeer Hazar Khan, Muhammad Imran Sharif, Mehwish Mehmood et al.Web images represent unstructured data sets which often lead to challenges when users try to locate distinct images via text-based searches on the web. Such difficulties stem from different factors, e.g., redundant image storage, irrelevant metadata tags, and incorrect associations. To overcome this issue, we propose a semantic model based on the ontology language that enables users to find images … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 5 · 23 Feb 2024 · 5,562 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDETECTION OF LAND USE AND LAND COVER CHANGES IN DIRAB REGION OF SAUDI ARABIA USING REMOTELY SENSED IMAGERIESR. Madugundu, K. A. Al-Gaadi, V. C. Patil, E. TolaKnowledge of Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) changes is important for many planning and management activities. It is thought to be an essential element for modeling and understanding the major land forms, especially in arid regions like Saudi Arabia. This study investigates the LULC changes in Dirab region of Saudi Arabia between 1980 and 2010, using Landsat TM/ETM+images. After … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2014 · 8,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Features of Rodoretto Valley Deep-Seated Gravitational Slope DeformationsMaria Gabriella Forno, Andrea Lingua, Stefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaA new, detailed survey of the Rodoretto Valley (Western Alps, Italy) has been conducted resulting in the production of a new morphological and quaternary geological map of the area. The authors used the innovative Solid (True) Ortho-Photo (STOP) technology integrated with navigation sensors (Global Navigation Satellite System-GNSS/Inertial Measurement Unit-IMU). This state-of-the-art procedure has demonstrated several operational advantages during both the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 9 Feb 2013 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation Weather-Type Models of Capacitated Arc Routing Problem via HeuristicsZuhaimy Ismail, Mohammad Fadzli RamliProblem statement: In this study, we introduced a new and real-life condition of Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (CARP), a model that represents vehicle’s operation in waste collection. In general, we studied the element of rain drops that affected the collected waste weight in total by imposed a new variable namely rainy weight age. In rainy days, the household refusals did … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,267 accessesView PDFCite
