Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Single-Pass Photovoltaic-Thermal Air Collector with Rectangle Tunnel AbsorberGoh Li Jin, Adnan Ibrahim, Yee Kim Chean et al.Problem statement: Photovoltaic solar cell generate electric by receiving sun light or solar irradiance. But solar cell received heat from solar irradiance as well and this will reduced the efficiency of the solar cell. The heat trap at the solar photovoltaic panel become waste energy. Approach: The solution for this was by adding a cooling system to the photovoltaic panel. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalysis of the Tunnel Boring Machine Advancement on the Bologna-Florence Railway LinkM. Cardu, P. Oreste, T. CicalaProblem statement: The high-velocity railway link between Bologna and Firenze (Italy) is today under construction and several tunnels have to be excavated for this purpose, some of these using TBMs. A small diameter tunnel, named Cunicolo ginori, was realized by TBM parallel to a large railway tunnel (Vaglia), at the distance of only 35 m. Approach: The Vaglia tunnel had … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIdentification of Flutter Derivatives of Bridge Decks in Wind Tunnel Test by Stochastic Subspace IdentificationT. Janesupasaeree, V. BoonyapinyoProblem statement: Flutter derivatives are the essential parameters in the estimations of the flutter critical wind velocity and the responses of long-span cable supported bridges. These derivatives can be experimentally estimated from wind tunnel test results. Generally, wind tunnel test methods can be divided into free decay test and buffeting test. Compared with the free decay method, the buffeting test … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,133 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Tunnel Boring Machine Advancements in Horizontal and Up-Hill TunnelsStefano Fuoco, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: Nowadays high levels of experience have been acquired in the excavation of horizontal tunnels using TBM, especially as far as tunnels with small diameters (about 4 m wide) are concerned. Less experience has been acquired in the excavation of tunnels under difficult alignment conditions, as in the case of steeply inclined excavations (up-hill tunnels). Approach: This study presented … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Convergence-Confinement Method: Roles and Limits in Modern Geomechanical Tunnel DesignPierpaolo OresteThe convergence-confinement method, based on the analysis of the stress and strain state that develops in the rock around a circular tunnel, has been presented in this study with the two analytical solutions that have been most frequently used in recent years. Problem statement: Thanks to the increased power of electronic processors and the spread of numerical methods, the role … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 10,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Economic Feasibility of Rebuilding Al-Isra University Tunnel — Mechanical FactorsBassam Al-HelouEconomic feasibility is the cornerstone in the decision making on an economic venture. The more positive the economic signs, the less the risk and foreseen losses. This study throws light on some economic advantages of rebuilding Al-Isra tunnel, especially in terms of shortening the car/bus trip by six kilometers go and fro, and in terms of reducing the trip schedule … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 7,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTunneling of Dirac Particles from Phantom Reissner Nordstrom ADS Black HoleH. GoharWe study the Hawking radiation of Dirac particles from Phantom Reissner Nordstrom ADS black hole by tunneling method. We use charge relativistic Dirac equation to study the emission of such particles. To solve Dirac equation we use WKB approximation and find the tunneling probability of outgoing particles. Finally we find the Hawking temperature for such type of black holes. …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2013 · 8,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTunneling Operations, Occupational S&H and Environmental Protection: A Prevention Through Design ApproachDavide Labagnara, Alberto Martinetti, Mario PatruccoThe study refers on the main results of a research work that has been carried out by the Safety and Health group of the Department of Environment, Land and Infrastructure Engineering (DIATI) at the Politecnico di Torino, with reference to the substantial difference that exists between the case of an established absence of hazards due to the presence of noxious … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 11 Sep 2013 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe ‘Celalettin-Field Quantum Observation Tunnel’ a Quantum Communication Countermeasure Speculative StructureM. Celalettin, H. KingThe ‘Celalettin-Field Quantum Observation Tunnel’ (COT) is a speculative structure produced in an ensemble of Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) polarized outer ‘s’ shell electrons, whereby an incoming photon, depolarizes ‘s’ shell electrons as it burrows through the ensemble, creating a tunnel. The depolarized particles when viewed as a single quantum system can theoretically be used to acquire information on the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 6 Apr 2019 · 7,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTunnel Static Behavior Assessed by a Probabilistic Approach to the Back-AnalysisClaudio Oggeri, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: The steps of the validation procedure of the project of a tunnel are briefly illustrated in this study, starting from the geological and structural surveys on the excavation walls and the measurement of the physical and mechanical parameters during the excavation works. Unfortunately, however, the knowledge of the rock mass, which is fundamental to the project, is usually … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 4 Jun 2012 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
