Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelational Contracting in the Building Sector in Jordan as a Substitute to Conventional Formal MethodsRazan Aleasawi, Sultan TarawnehThe socioeconomic policies within the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan aim to enhance the Public-Private Partnership (PPP), one of the Relational Contracting models, to encourage investment, improve public services, upgrade infrastructure and boost financial resources, in line with Jordan 2025 Vision (Ministry of Municipal Affairs, 2014). The construction sector itself has a growth plan of 5% in order to meet this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2020 · 6,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Texas Feed Yard Workforce: Survey of Stockperson Attitudes and Perceptions towards Euthanasia, Animal Care and Employee ValueEmily E. Ridge, Ron Gill, Courtney L. DaigleA survey was administered to Texas cattle feedyard employees (n =111) from 31 different operations measuring stockperson perception, job satisfaction and socioeconomic status using Likert statements and multiple-choice questions. Differences among employment roles (manager, pen rider, processor (those who vaccinate and implant incoming calves), doctor (non-veterinarians)) were evaluated using a Kruskal-Wallis test followed by a Multiple Comparison procedure. Managers strongly … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 28 May 2019 · 7,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Projects Sharing Ratios under Musharakah Financing: A Repeated Game Theoretical Approach Using an Output versus a Proposed Effort Based ContractAdil Elfakir, Mohamed TkiouatIn this research, we provide a game theoretical approach of new projects financed under musharakah contracts using two types of contracts. The first type is effort based. It compensates the agent for the effort provided regardless of market conditions. The other type of contract is output based where the agent compensation is based solely on output realized. Our intuition is, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 9 · 8 Oct 2015 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMIGITATION OF INTER CELL INTERFERENCE AND FADING IN LTE SYSTEMSNagarajan Amutha Prabha, Gorla Vidhya Sagar, Venugopal ManikandanIn this study we investigate the compensation of outage area utmost. It introduces the self optimization of the neighbors of the outage cells with antenna tilts for the generation of the most suitable configuration settings for the network with base stations/eNodeBs positional information. All the neighbors of the outage cell increase their coverage area and thus contribute to cell outage … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 28 Nov 2013 · 6,736 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectromagnetic Interference Mitigation for Inverter fed AC DrivesC. Karthikeyan, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: In switched mode PWM inverter EMI noise occurs during high (dv/dt) transient period. This EMI noise is mitigated using Active Common mode EMI filter in front of the source. Approach: This study proposes a new active common mode Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) filter for switched mode PWM Inverter applications. The proposed filter is based on current sensing and compensation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 12 Sep 2011 · 7,309 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Logic Controller for Static Synchronous Series Compensator with Energy Storage System for Transient Stability AnalysisSona Padma, M. RajaramProblem statement: FACTS devices play a major role in the efficient operation of the complex power system. FACTS devices such as STATCOM, SSSC and IPFC are in increasing usage. With energy storage systems they have a good control over the real as well as reactive power compensation and transient stability improvement. The design of controller for the SSSC with SMES … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 6,694 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMotion Detection and Projection Based Block Motion Estimation Using the Radon Transform for Video CodingShilpa P. Metkar, Sanjay N. TalbarProblem statement: Motion estimation and compensation is the most computationally complex module of video coder. In this study, an innovative algorithm was proposed for a further complexity reduction of the Motion Estimation (ME) module of video coder by employing motion detection prior to motion compensation. Approach: A Motion Detection (MD) module can be added to the video coder in order … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectric Power System Under-Voltage Load Shedding Protection Can Become a TrapLuiz Augusto Pereira Fernandes, Alexandre Rocco, Heraldo Silveira Barbuy, Geraldo Caixeta GuimarãesProblem statement: Under-Voltage Load Shedding (UVLS) protection of Electric Power Systems (EPS) is frequently used against Voltage Collapse (VC), however when there is automatic bus voltage regulation with excessive capacitive compensation, the UVLS scheme may not trip. In this case, load shedding must be based in a Voltage Collapse Proximity Indicator (VCPI). Many UVLS procedures may not be appropriate today. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,203 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPower Quality Improvement Using a Sliding Mode Control of a Series Active FilterTheerayuth ChatchanayuenyongA sliding mode controller (SMC) for a three-phase series active filter was proposed to compensate voltage unbalances, suppress voltage sags and swells and hence improve the power quality of a three-phase ac system. The voltage unbalance compensation and regulation is only based on the positive sequence component decomposition of the supply voltage that is then adjusted to a rated value … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Cost Smart Sensor DesignTakialddin A. Al SmadiProblem statement: Sensor with local processing power that enables it to react to local conditions without having to refer back to the central controller. The size and the cost of smart sensor circuit have been reduced. Approach: The use of microcontroller, such as (PIC16C715), with an 8-bit ADC (Analogue to Digital Converter) in one chip. This reduction in the circuit … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2016 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
