Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on Micro-Welding of Thin Stainless Steel Sheet by Fiber LaserMohd Idris Shah Ismail, Yasuhiro Okamoto, Akira Okada, Yoshiyuki UnoProblem statement: The miniaturization of components plays an important role for manufacturing in electrical and electronic industries. The joining technology of thin metal sheets has been strongly required. Laser welding with micro-beam and high-speed scanning is a promising solution in micro-welding, because it has high-potential advantages in welding heat sensitive components with precise control of heat input and minimal thermal … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 9,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Clustering Based Genetic Algorithm for Solving Complex NP ProblemsR. Sivaraj, T. RavichandranProblem statement: The selection process is a major factor in genetic algorithm which determines the optimality of solution for a complex problem. The selection pressure is the critical step which finds out the best individuals in the entire population for further genetic operators. The proposed algorithm tries to find out the best individuals with reduced selection pressure than standard genetic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOil Refineries Emissions Impact on Urban Localities Using AERMODAmira Mohamed Wahba Abdelrasoul, Amir AL-Hadad, Abdul Rehman KhanProblem statement: The absolute necessity of compulsory fuel utilities, no matter small or big has resulted into substantial high hazards pollutants. Petroleum refineries are major industrial installations that are necessary for providing the best suited fuel for various necessary utilities, but are responsible of the emission of several hazardous pollutants into the atmosphere. Hydrocarbons are among the most perilous air … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Drying Kinetics of Chilies using a Rotating Fluidized Bed TechniqueWatcharin Dongbang, Worachest Pirompugd, Kittichai TriratanasirichaiProblem statements: The present study investigates experimentally the drying of chilies (Capsicum annuum L.) with rotating fluidized bed technique and the biological properties: capsaicin content, moisture diffusivity and activation energy. Approach: The drying experiment was conducted at the drying air temperatures ranged 70-120°C and the drying air velocity was fixed at 1.8 m sec-1, while the layer's height was fixed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,429 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSH Waves Diffusion in Fluid-Saturated MediumC.C. Dennis Ling, S. Y. Faisal, A. A. ZainalProblem statement: Characteristics of the seismic waves have been studied mainly the amplitudes, attenuation, frequency, porosity and the velocity of the waves. In this study, the SH-waves were studied for the diffusion which was related to the diffraction of SH-waves in the saturated medium. Approach: The elastic wave equation was being used to show the SH-waves. A comparison was made … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,336 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWall Shear Stress Distribution in Patient Specific Coronary Artery BifurcationVahab Dehlaghi, Frank GijsenProblem statement: Atherogenesis is affected by hemodynamic parameters, such as wall shear stress and wall shear stress spatial gradient. These parameters are largely dependent on the geometry of arterial tree. Arterial bifurcations contain significant flow disturbances. Approach: The effects of branch angle and vessel diameter ratio at the bifurcations on the wall shear stress distribution in the coronary arterial tree … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,369 accessesView PDFCite
