Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Didactic Laboratory of Theory and Design of Structures for Bachelor Civil Engineering Students in CagliariMariangela Deligia, Fabrizio Pittau, Silvia Corda et al.The course of Theory and Design of Structures for the Bachelor courses of Civil Engineering in Academic Year 2016-17 at the University of Cagliari was divided in two semesters: the first one dealing with theoretical aspects, in the second one a didactic laboratory was developed with the aim of a structural design of a building. The assignment and development of … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2018 · 7,659 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDefect Detection on 3D Print Products and in Concrete Structures Using Image Processing and Convolution Neural NetworkSelorm Garfo, M.A. Muktadir, Sun YiThis paper explores the automated detection of surface defects on 3-D printed products and concrete structures. They are the main factors to evaluate their quality in addition to dimension and roughness. Traditional detection by human inspectors is far from satisfactory. Manual inspection is time-consuming, error-prone and often leads to loss of resources. For this purpose, image processing and deep learning-based … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 May 2020 · 12,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAbnormalities in Ultrasonic (C-Scan) Images of Composite Structures: Impact Damaged Versus Hole DamagedMahmoud Zaki IskandaraniThis paper is about applying image processing to detect different types and levels of damage in composite structures using in C-scan images produced by ultrasonic testing. This method plays an important role as it can detect any discontinuities or flaws in the specimen. To analyze such critical image in an, automated inspection environment an image processing method that correlates Threshold … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 7 · 23 Jul 2019 · 8,230 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessEvery word in the titleExtending the Repertoire of Structures in DNA NanotechnologyClive DelmonteDNA nanotechnology remains an active area of research and advances have been reviewed recently. DNA nanotechnology seeks to deploy molecules at an atomic level and on a small molecule scale. Other techniques in biophysics and biochemistry do not need to address the issue of the true structure of the nucleic acids at an atomic level but, rather, at a macro-atomic … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 7 Oct 2015 · 13,914 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMulti-Objective Evolutionary Optimization of Sandwich Structures: An Evaluation by Elitist Non-dominated Sorting Evolution StrategyIlyani Akmar, A.B, O. Kramer, T. RabczukIn this study, an application of evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms on the optimization of sandwich structures is presented. The solution strategy is known as Elitist Non-Dominated Sorting Evolution Strategy (ENSES) wherein Evolution Strategies (ES) as Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) in the elitist Non-dominated Sorting Genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) procedure. Evolutionary algorithm seems a compatible approach to resolve multi-objective optimization problems because it … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2015 · 7,323 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHOW PUBLIC ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURES INFLUENCE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT PROCESSESMohammed A. Bindrees, Robert J. Pooley, Idris S. Ibrahim, Diana S. BentalSoftware applications are developed differently based on each organisation's needs and requirements. Software projects are fundamentally based on three considerations (time, cost and quality) each of which is affected by organisational factors. Both Project Management and Software Engineering have emphasised the role of organisation structure on the quality of the deliverable software applications, recognising that organisation structure influences flexibility, reporting … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 29 Dec 2014 · 7,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEmbedded Computer Based Active Vibration Control System for Vibration Reduction of Flexible StructuresVenkata Ratnam Tatavolu, Seetha Ramaiah PanchumarthyResearch on Active Vibration Control System (AVCS) is being carried out to reduce structural vibrations caused by unwanted vibrations in many application areas such as in space, aircraft structures, satellites, automobiles and civil structures (bridges), particularly at low frequencies. The unwanted vibration may cause damage to the structure or degradation to the structure’s performance. The AVCS comprises physical plant, a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 Jun 2013 · 6,550 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Approach to Damage Detection in Composite Body Structures Using Time Compensated Hyperspectral Image Analysis TechniqueMahmoud Zaki IskandaraniA novel approach to damage detection in composite car body structures using hyperspectral image index analysis algorithm is presented and discussed. The adapted technique allows the monitoring and analysis of a components structure based on correlation between time spaced thermal images. The technique produces several organized tables resulting from image fusion and frame deviation pixel redistribution calculations, which results in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 1 Feb 2013 · 7,267 accessesView PDFCite
