Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling for Shakedown Analysis of Offshore StructuresMohammad Javad Fadaee, Hamed Saffari, Ramin TabatabaeiThe shakedown analysis process of an offshore structure having elastic-plastic material presented. The finite element model of the structure has been developed first, and then a simple method has been applied for shakedown analysis using matrix tool. Simplifying the relationships together with applying the theory concepts of shakedown analysis is one of the characteristics of the presented method for practical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeedback of the Input Voltage in FDTC Control Using a Three-Level NPC-VSIR. Zaimeddine, E.M. BerkoukA new control structure for sensorless induction machine dedicated to electrical drives using a three-level voltage source inverter VSI-NPC is completely analysed. The amplitude and the rotating velocity of the flux vector could be controlled freely. Both fast torque and optimal switching logic could be achieved; the selection is based on the value of the stator flux and the torque. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Covers and Rainfall on Soil and Water Conservation Using a Tilting Flume ModelS. Compliew, L. Suwanchai, N. KrongwiengThe effect of stone and vegetative covers was evaluated for soil and water conservation in a waterway on salty soils in the Northeast of Thailand. Experiments were conducted on a hydraulic tilting flume under simulated unit flow (120 and 45 cm2s-1), rainfall (120 mm/hr) and slope (0, 1.2,1.4,1.6,1.8,2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0%) conditions. The depth of soil was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of An Acoustic Temperature Transducer and its Application for Heater Temperature MeasurementMohammad A.K. Alia, Tariq Al MograbiRecent developments in temperature measurement have encouraged researchers to develop low-cost, simple structure, computerized generic transducers for environmental monitoring and industrial process control. The research presents a computerized technique which allows to measure temperature according to the variation of acoustic velocity (frequency) in a closed waveguide. Signal conditioning and processing was carried out using labVIEW (G Language) VIs. In order … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlow of Temperature-dependent Viscous Fluid Between Parallel Heated Walls: Exact Analytical Solutions in the Presence of Viscous DissipationK. S. Adegbie, F. I. AlaoWe examine steady incompressible flow of viscous liquids between parallel heated walls of plane Couette device. The temperature of the upper and lower walls of the device are maintained at T = Tb and T = T0 respectively. Of a particular interest are exact analytical solutions of the coupled non-linear differential equations resulting from plane Couette flow obtained for the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligent Control for Self-erecting Inverted Pendulum Via Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference SystemA. A. Saifizul, Z. Zainon, N. A.Abu Osman et al.A self-erecting single inverted pendulum (SESIP) is one of typical nonlinear systems. The control scheme running the SESIP consists of two main control loops. Namely, these control loops are swing-up controller and stabilization controller. A swing-up controller of an inverted pendulum system must actuate the pendulum from the stable position. While a stabilization controller must stand the pendulum in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 7,322 accessesView PDFCite
