Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Thermal Explosion of Sensitized Reaction with Variable Heat LossK.S. Adegbie, F.I. AlaoThis study discusses the influence of heat loss on the critical ignition temperature and Frank-Kamenetskii parameter of a non-linear ordinary differential equation arising in thermal sensitized reaction. The reaction obeys the Arrhenius expression with temperature dependent pre-exponential factor, taking heat exchange between the reacting material and its surrounding into account. The consequences of heat loss are explored within the framework … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,929 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPassage to the Differences for the BDF's MethodsAbdelouahab SalmiIn this study, we give an improvement to the backward differentiation formula (BDF). We use a formula for the differences that permits us to determine the new coefficients αi^ and γi ^in function of the classical coefficients αi and γi of this method. Our proposed approach decreases the error and the cost of computation. Numerical results for concrete problems are … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstrained Probabilistic Lost Sales Inventory System with Normal Distribution and Varying Order CostHala, A. Fergany, Mona, F. EL-WakeelThis study derives the probabilistic lost sales inventory system when the order cost is a function of the order quantity. Our objective is to minimize the expected annual total cost under a restriction on the expected annual holding cost when the lead-time demand follows the normal distribution by using the Lagrangian method. Then a published special case is deduced and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Application of Finite Element Modelling to Pneumatic Artificial MuscleR. Ramasamy, M. R. Juhari, M. R. Mamat et al.The purpose of this article was to introduce and to give an overview of the Pneumatic Artificial Muscles (PAMs) as a whole and to discuss its numerical modelling, using the Finite Element (FE) Method. Thus, more information to understand on its behaviour in generating force for actuation was obtained. The construction of PAMs was mainly consists of flexible, inflatable membranes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Absorption Coefficients and Thermal Diffusivity of Modulated Doped GaAlAs/GaAs Heterostructure by Photothermal Deflection SpectroscopyS. Aloulou, M. Fathallah, M. Oueslati, A. SfaxiWe report in this study theoretical and experimental studies of photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) for planar doped heterostructures AlGaAs/GaAs. The PDS spectra at T=300K are recorded by varying the wavelength of the excited radiation for different modulation frequencies. They show two different regions related to the fundamental electronic transitions from GaAs and Si doped AlGaAs. The DX levels have been … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving Linear Programming Problems on the Parallel Virtual Machine EnvironmentJrJung Lyu, Hsing Luh, Ming-Chang LeeThis study developed a parallel algorithm to efficiently solve linear programming models. The proposed algorithm utilizes the Dantzig-Wolfe Decomposition Principle and can be easily implemented in a general distributed computing environment. The analytical performance of the well-known method, including the speedup upper bound and lower bound limits, was derived. Numerical experiments are also provided in order to verify the complexity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,841 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHysteresis, resonant oscillations and bifurcation mode of a system modeled by a forced modified Van der Pol-Duffing oscillatorJean Bio Chabi Orou, Clément Hodévèwan Miwadinou, Laurent Amoussou Hinvi, Adjimon Vincent MonwanouNonlinear oscillations and its applications in physics, chemistry, engineering, biophysics, communications are studied with some analytical, numerical and experimental methods. In the present paper, hysteresis, resonant oscillations and bifurcation mode of a system modeled by a forced modified Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator are considered. The plasma oscillations are considered and are described by a nonlinear differential equation. By using the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2017 · 7,907 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo-Stage Estimation in Inverse Problems using Combined Wavelet Thresholding and Penalized Maximum LikelihoodRobert G Aykroyd, Hassan AljohaniInverse problems occur in a wide range of practical scientific investigations where the variables of interest are only observed indirectly, such as magnetic and seismic imaging in geophysics, electrical tomography in industrial process monitoring, or PET scanning in medicine. Linear inverse problems can be thought of as highly multivariate regression problems with strong multicollinearity where the aim is to interpret … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 29 Sep 2017 · 7,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVulnerability and Protection of Glass Windows and Facades under Blast: Experiments, Methods and Current TrendsXihong Zhang, Chiara BedonGlass has been overwhelmingly used for windows and facades for modern constructions. Nevertheless, due to its relatively low tensile strength and mostly brittle behaviour, compared to other structural members, glass windows/facades are one of the most fragile components for a building envelop that are always associated with vast casualties in a blast incident. Several researches have been carried out to … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 24 Jul 2017 · 14,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStiffened Panels Damage Tolerance Determination using an Optimization Procedure based on a Linear Delamination Growth ApproachAniello Riccio, Francesco Di Caprio, Francesco Scaramuzzino et al.The damage tolerance of delaminated composite panels under compressive load is usually numerically evaluated by means of computationally expensive non-linear approaches. In this study, an alternative numerical linear approach, able to mimic the delamination propagation initiation, is proposed. With the aim to exploit its benefits, in terms of computational costs reduction, the proposed linear methodology has been used in this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2016 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
