Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePerformance Comparison of Passive Fault Tolerant Control Strategy with PI and Fuzzy Control of Single-Tank Level Process with Sensor and System FaultHimanshukumar R. Patel, Vipul A. ShahFault-Tolerant Control (FTC) strategy has gain maximum attention in recent years in chemical industries due to economical and safety hazards perspective. Targeting at the decreasing control performance of the single-tank level control process under the constraint of system and sensor faults, this article presents model-based Passive Fault-Tolerant Control (PFTC) strategy which are based on conventional and artificial intelligence control. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 24 Jun 2019 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Black Currant Cultivars Resistance to Aphis grossulariae Kalt. and Effectiveness of Water Extracts of Artemisia Absinthium L. and Tanacetum Vulgare L. Against this PestNatalya Gennadievna Andrianova, Tatyana Vladimirovna Likhacheva, Tatyana Olegovna SirotinaThis study consisted in revealing the possibility of using two ecologically safe methods to control gooseberry aphid (Aphis grossulariae Kalt.) in black currant cultivars: selection aphid resistant cultivars and the use of plant water extracts of wormwood (Artemisia absinthium L.) and tansy (Tanacetum vulgare L.) in the arid zone of Central Kazakhstan for protection against aphid. The study of the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2018 · 7,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Comparison of Thermal Stratification due Natural Convection in Densified LOX, LN2 TanksSeyed Ali Jazayeri, Ehsan Molla Hasanzadeh KhoeiThe growth of natural circulation and thermal stratification inside LOX, LN2 storage tanks due to heat transfer from surroundings is investigated using a non-equilibrium, two-domain, mathematical model. The two-dimensional model is considered for the liquid domain in two cases and a lumped, thermodynamic model is utilized for vapor domain. The vapor is assumed to behave like an ideal gas. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,971 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of the Detoxification on the Shrinkage Temperature and pH of Chromium Leather Waste, Another Promising Way for the Tannery PollutionA. Malek, M. HachemiThe leather tannery industry produces a significant amount of solid chromium waste. Environmental concerns and escalating landfill costs are becoming increasingly serious problems to the leather industry and alternative disposal methods are needed. This research describes the possibility of decrease of the shrinkage temperature and to increase the pH value of leather waste by detoxification treatment with use of tartrate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFactors Influencing the Extent of Practice of Organic Farming Technologies: A Case Study of Tangail District in BangladeshMd. Asaduzzaman Sarker, Yoshihito ItoharaThe study was attempted to explore the major factors influencing the extent of practice of organic farming technologies (called OFTs from here) by the Bangladeshi farmers. The empirical data for the study were collected from the organic farmers of the selected villages of Tangail district in Bangladesh. The results of the study identified four factors like development of knowledge and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIdentification of Perfluorooctanoic Acid Release from Commercial Coated Cooking Pans by Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass SpectrometryMonica Bononi, Fernando TateoSalts of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) can be used in the manufacture of fluoropolymers employed for coating pans; moreover, PFOA can be formed as a byproduct of thermolysis of the aforesaid fluoropolymers. This study was carried out to evaluate PFOA migration into food cooked in fluoropolymer-coated pans. The pans were purchased from a local retailer and subjected to cooking conditions. Used … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEfficient Maintenance Scheduler for Near Optimum Utilization of Oil TanksFawaz S. Al-Anzi, Khaled Al-ZamelDue to the entry of Kuwait into WTO and the expected liberalization of petroleum management, the oil market is to become more competitive. However, the space limitation and public increasing awareness of environmental protection issues and stricter regulation passed by Environmental Public Authority (EPA) in Kuwait make the need for full utilization of oil tanks a prime requirement of a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,519 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCFD-PBE Modelling and Simulation of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cellulose in a Stirred TankNorazaliza Mohd Jamil, Qi WangRenewable energy or biofuel from lignocellulosic biomass is an alternative way to replace the depleting fossil fuels. The production cost can be reduced by increasing the concentration of biomass particles. However, lignocellulosic biomass is a suspension of natural fibres and processing at high solid concentration is a challenging task because it will affect the mixing quality between the enzyme and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 25 Oct 2016 · 8,002 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAPPLYING SEASONAL CLIMATE TRENDS TO AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION IN TANJUNG KARANG, MALAYSIAMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Lee Qiao Yun, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin et al.The North West Selangor Integrated Agriculture Development Agency (NWS-IADA) is the most productive agricultural part in Selangor, Malaysia. This is partly because of the inherent high fertility of the soils and the moderate variable climate. However, with increasing global concern about climate impacts, this article examines relative importance of climate influences on the paddy production rate over 28 years (1980-2008). … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2014 · 7,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTuning of a Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller using Multi-Objective Non Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization Applied to pH Control in Continuous Stirred Tank ReactorC. Agees Kumar, N. Kesavan NairProblem statement: Most of the control engineering problems are characterized by several, contradicting, conflicting objectives, which have to be satisfied simultaneously. Two widely used methods for finding the optimal solution to such problems are aggregating to a single criterion and using Pareto-optimal solutions. Approach: Non-Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (NSPSO) based approach is used in the design of multiobjective … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 6,793 accessesView PDFCite
