Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Investigation of Incompressible Fluid Flow through Porous Media in a Lid-Driven Square CavityM.A. Mohd Irwan, A. M. Fudhail, C.S. Nor Azwadi, G. MasoudProblem statement: Investigation of fluid flow behavior through porous media in a liddriven square cavity. Approach: The Brinkman-Forcheimer equation is coupled with the lattice Boltzmann formulation to predict the velocity field in the system. Three numerical experiments were preformed with different values of Darcy number to investigate the effect of porosity on the fluid flow. Results: In the current study, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,405 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParametric Deduction Optimization for Surface RoughnessTian-Syung LanProblem statement: Surface roughness is a major consideration in modern Computer Numerical Control (CNC) turning industry. Most existing optimization researches for CNC finish turning were either accomplished within certain manufacturing circumstances, or achieved through numerous equipment operations. Therefore, a general deduction optimization scheme is deemed to be necessary for the industry. Approach: In this study, four parameters (cutting depth, feed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Self-Tuning Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, Based On Taguchi MethodM. Santhakumar, T. AsokanProblem statement: Conventional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers exhibit moderately good performance once the PID gains are properly tuned. However, when the dynamic characteristics of the system are time dependent or the operating conditions of the system vary, it is necessary to retune the gains to obtain desired performance. This situation has renewed the interest of researchers and practitioners in PID control. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,855 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Deduction Material Removal Rate Optimization for Computer Numerical Control TurningTian-Syung LanProblem statement: Material Removal Rate (MRR) is often a major consideration in the modern Computer Numerical Control (CNC) turning industry. Most existing optimization researches for CNC finish turning were either accomplished within certain manufacturing circumstances, or achieved through numerous equipment operations. Therefore, a general deduction optimization scheme is deemed to be necessary proposed for the industry. Approach: In this study, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuarter-Sweep Projected Modified Gauss-Seidel Algorithm Applied to Linear Complementarity ProblemW. S. Koh, J. Sulaiman, R. MailProblem statement: Modified Gauss-Seidel (MGS) was developed in order to improve the convergence rate of classical iterative method in solving linear system. In solving linear system iteratively, it takes longer time when many computational points involved. It is known that by applying quarter-sweep iteration scheme, it can decrease the computational operations without altering the accuracy. In this study, we investigated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of Double Pass Photovoltaic Thermal Air Collector with FinsEbrahim M. Ali Alfegi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Yusof Hj Othman, Baharudin Bin YatimProblem statement: The efficiency of photovoltaic cells is generally temperature dependent (efficiency decrease when the temperature of the photovoltaic cells increase). This problem can be solved by cooling the solar cells during operation and operated at low temperature. Approach: This study presented a numerical model of double pass Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) solar air collector with fins attached to the back … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Pseudo-Spectral Method of Solving Linear Ordinary Differential EquationsB. S. OgundareProblem statement: Not all differential equations can be solved analytically, to overcome this problem, there is need to search for an accurate approximate solution. Approach: The objective of this study was to find an accurate approximation technique (scheme) for solving linear differential equations. By exploiting the Trigonometric identity property of the Chebyshev polynomial, we developed a numerical scheme referred to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,222 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCooperative Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks-Avoid Non-Perfect Reporting ChannelRania A. Mokhtar, Sabira Khatun, B. M. Ali, A. RamliProblem statement: Cognitive radio is a candidate technology for more efficient spectrum utilization systems based on opportunistic spectrum sharing. However, a common assumption regarding cognitive radios is that they are unlicensed spectrum users that should defer to (avoid interfering with) existing primary sources. Therefore effective sensing of primary users was a major focus of current research. Cooperative spectrum sensing had … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,734 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeo-Seismic Environmental Aspects Affecting Tailings Dams FailuresJuan M. Mayoral, Miguel P. RomoSeismic performance evaluations of tailings dams are essential for characterizing the geo-environmental risks posed by these earthen structures, which should include the geotechnical hazards implied by slope instability failure, free board loss and the potential release of contaminants. The observed damage is more important when liquefaction occurs on the dam body and foundation, which often leads to cracking, settlements, tilting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of Tsunami Waves with Sloping Bottom and Nonlinear FrictionAgustinus RibalIn this paper we investigate the breaking of long-waves propagating on shallow water with nonlinear friction on the sloping bottom. A complete set of equations is presented and a numerical method is developed to simulate the wave propagation. The method uses an up-wind difference scheme for the nonlinear convective term and the central difference scheme for other derivative terms.
