Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality of Service Aware Reverse Pathad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector ProtocolK. G. Santhiya, N. ArumugamMobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is aninfra structureless network that does not require any built-in infra structure and central control. Due to very fast mobility of nodes, there will be drastic changes in the network topology. So an adaptive routing protocol is needed for effective and reliable routing in MANET. Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol is the efficient and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulticost Routing Approach in Wireless Ad hoc NetworksD. Loganathan, P. RamamoorthyProblem statement: A Wireless ad hoc network is a collection of autonomous movable nodes that communicate with each other over wireless links without any static infrastructure. In these networks there is no fixed topology because of the mobility of nodes, interference, multipath propagation and path loss. A variety of routing protocols and algorithm with varying network settings are analyzed to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2012 · 6,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Overview for Decomposition of Industry Energy ConsumptionChun-Chu LiuThis study is to overview several methodological related to the decomposition approach based on the energy consumption. Based on a comparison of the size of the residual term that the adaptive weighting Divisia and the simple average Divisia index method, is most robust, exhibiting the smallest residual term. A complete decomposition model also introduced here has solved a residual problem. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,713 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCyclic Instability of Shape-Memory Alloys in Seismic Isolation SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Corneliu Cismasiu, Francisco Braz FernandesShape-memory alloys are being progressively introduced as kernel components in seismic retrofitting devices for civil engineering structures. In order to control the instability associated with the first mechanical cycles, a training procedure is usually implemented, which stabilizes the superelastic behavior of the alloy. This paper addresses the characterization of the cyclic behavior of an austenitic NiTi alloy with emphasis on … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2018 · 6,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSIMULTANEOUS OPTIMISATION OF DRYING PARAMETERS OF CERAMIC BODIESSalah Mahmoudi, Ezzeddine Srasra, Fouad ZargouniThis study deals with the mineralogical, physico-chemical and geotechnical analyses of representative Aptian clays in the north-east of Tunisia. X-ray diffraction reveals a predominance of illite (50-60 wt.%) associated to kaolinite and interstratified illite/smectite. The accessory minerals detected in raw materials are quartz, calcite and Na-feldspar. The average amounts of silica, alumina and alkalis are 52, 20 and 3.5 wt.%, … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 1 Jul 2014 · 6,996 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Multi-Path Routing for Load Balancing in Mobile Ad Hoc NetworksS. Soundararajan, R. S. BhuvaneswaranProblem statement: Load balancing and network congestion are the major problems in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) routing. Most of the existing routing protocols provide solutions to load balancing or congestion or fault-tolerance, individually. Approach: We propose congestion controlled adaptive multi-path routing protocol to achieve load balancing and avoid congestion in MANETs. The algorithm for finding multi-path routes computes fail-safe multiple … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 18 Feb 2012 · 7,451 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDurian Husk Properties and its Heating Value EquationPatomsok WilaiponProblem statement: Agricultural residue seems to be one of the most promising energy resources for developing countries. Among the other fruits, durian is a popular one for Thai people. Therefore, a large amount of durian husk is left at the shops or factories. This study was aimed to investigate the characteristics and heating value of durian husk and to develop … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 1 Aug 2011 · 7,865 accessesView PDFCite
