Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWireless Control of Vehicle Mirror System Using Head Movement and PIC MicrocontrollerNidal F. Shilbayeh, Mahmoud Z. IskandaraniA PIC controlled IR system for the control car mirror system movement is designed and implemented. The designed and built system allows the side view mirrors to be adjusted based on the driver head movement. The infrared based head tracking system maps a predetermined coordinates for head movements and results in a triangularly computable geometry which is fed to the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistopathological Feature of Acute Appendicitis in Kerman-Iran from 1997 to 2003Fatemeh NabipourAcute appendicitis is one of the most common surgical conditions that affect about seven percent of the population. The histopathologic stages of appendicitis are important to regarding prognosis. To evaluate pathologic features of appendix after operation, this study was designed. 2753 appendices specimen that had been received to department of pathology of two major hospitals in Kerman-Iran during five years … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,661 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValidation of Some Bridge Pier Scour Formulae Using Field and Laboratory DataThamer A. Mohamed, Megat J.M.M. Noor, Abdul H. Ghazali, Bujang B.K. HuatEstimation of maximum local scour depth at the bride pier site is necessary for the safety and economy of the designed bridge. Numerous formulae are available and almost all of these formulae were developed based on laboratory data. Validation of these formulae is necessary in order to ascertain which of the formulae will give a reasonable estimate of the local … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphing Mechanisms Part 1: Using Iterative Learning Control to Morph Cam Follower MotionNonglak Phetkong, Meng-Sang Chew, Richard W. LongmanThis study introduces the concept of morphing mechanisms. Mechanisms are normally designed for specific operating conditions and once they are built one may wish to use them under different operating conditions. In some cases, a mechanism may be imperfectly fabricated and one would like to get the intended ideal performance. In these cases, instead of designing, fabricating and replacing the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Class of Region-preserving Space Transformations for Indexing High-dimensional DataRatko Orlandic, Jack LukaszukThis study introduces a class of region preserving space transformation (RPST) schemes for accessing high-dimensional data. The access methods in this class differ with respect to their space-partitioning strategies. The study develops two new static partitioning schemes that can split each dimension of the space within linear space complexity. They also support an effective mechanism for handling skewed data in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,919 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Performance of Traffic Dependent Outage Rate Cellular SystemHussein M.A. Basi, M. B.R. MurthyThe designers of a mobile cellular system must evaluate the possible configurations of the system components and their characteristics in order to develop a system with greater efficiency. The useful parameters to estimate performances of the system are voice quality, frequency spectrum efficiency and grade of service (GOS). In this study, a scheme proposed to reduce the lost calls and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Nocardiopsis dassonvillei in a Blood Sample from a ChildFlavio Lejbkowicz, Raya Kudinsky, Luisa Samet et al.Nocardiopsis dassonvillei is an environmental aerobic actinomycete producing a funguslike mycelium and aerial hyphae. Here we report the first Nocardiopsis dassonvillei isolated from a blood sample from a 3-year-old child hospitalized with fever, respiratory difficulty and cough. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time this organism has been detected in the BacT/Alert system. This Nocardiopsis was … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,280 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Field Development Scheduling, East Unity Oil Field, SudanTagwa A. Musa, Ahmed A.E. Ibrahin, Guan ZhenLiang, Fei QiIn order to improve the reservoir performance in East Unity oil field Sudan, the studies focused on characterization, modeling and simulation of the actual performance and future development. A model was constructed using a three-phase, three dimensional, black oil simulator (ECLIPSE). In this study a data from East Unity oil field Sudan started production at July 1999 was used to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Groundwater Vulnerability in Urban Development PlanningJ. Nouri, S. MalmasiGroundwater resources in most places of Iran are considered to be one of the important drinking water supplies for civilians. In city of Tehran, 25% of drinking water is being supplied from groundwater. This fact would enforce the requirement to protect and conserve groundwater resources in the city for its further development plan. Municipality of Tehran, District-22 has been designed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
