Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF TEST PROTOCOLS FOR THE ANALYSIS OF MAGNETO-RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF FIELD-RESPONSIVE BITUMINOUS BINDERSEzio Santagata, Orazio Baglieri, Lucia Tsantilis, Arianna VercelliMagneto-rheological fluids are materials that exhibit a significant change in their rheological properties in the presence of a magnetic field. Because of such a field-dependent behavior, they can act as smart materials in applications in which changeable performances are desired. In road pavement engineering, the use of bitumen-based magneto-rheological fluids may open innovative scenarios related to the construction of smart … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 20 Jan 2014 · 6,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHardware Modeling of Binary Coded Decimal Adder in Field Programmable Gate ArrayMuhammad Ibn Ibrahimy, Rezwanul Ahsan, Iksannurazmi Bambang SoerosoThere are insignificant relevant research works available which are involved with the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based hardware implementation of Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) adder. This is because, the FPGA based hardware realization is quiet new and still developing field of research. The article illustrates the design and hardware modeling of a BCD adder. Among the types of adders, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 28 May 2013 · 6,512 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Modeling of Periodic Pumping Tests in Wells Penetrating a Heterogeneous AquiferPeter A. Fokker, Joerg Renner, Francesca VergaThis study investigated how to utilize multiple frequency components of pressure data from periodic pulse tests to estimate the intra-well permeability and compressibility distribution and also the presence of heterogeneities in a real field case. Periodic well testing is a technique in which injection or production pulses of a fluid are applied to a well in a periodic fashion. One … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2013 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Surface Energy to evaluate Adhesion of Bituminous Crack Sealants to AggregatesEllie H. Fini, Imad L. Al-Qadi, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Jean-Francois MassonProblem statement: The performance of bituminous sealants in the field is partly controlled by properties and strength of the sealant-aggregate interface. The thermodynamic work of adhesion represents energy required for reversible separation of the two materials at the interface. The study of fracture includes the energy required for both reversible and irreversible processes during separation. Excess of work of facture … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOR-Bridging Fault Identification and Diagnosis for Exclusive-OR Sum of Products Reed-Muller Canonical CircuitsV. Geetha, N. Devarajan, P. N. NeelakantanProblem statement: The faults in digital circuit can be classified broadly as single stuck-atfaults, multiple stuck-ay-faults, stuck-open faults, stuck-on faults, path delay faults, transient faults. Extensive research had been carried out in the field of testing of digital circuits to limit the number of input vectors. The cardinality of the test vectors proposed by many authors was quite high for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 7,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesting and Performance Evaluation of Tractor Mounted Hydraulic Elevator for Mango OrchardKishor P. Kolhe, Bhaskhar B. JadhavProblem statement: The harvesting and pruning of horticultural crops is quite difficult due to their tallness. There are small hand tools available for harvesting and pruning. But these tools of harvesting and pruning are restricted due tree height, unavailability of trained labours for climbing and cost of operation etc. The mechanized machines are available; these are heavy and costly and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2011 · 8,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling and Characterization of Thin Film, Narrow Gap Sensor Array Units (SAU)Mahmoud Z. IskandaraniDesign, modeling, testing and analysis multi-gap PbPc sensor array units for the purpose of gas detection are carried out. The tested devices showed reduction in conductance as a function of increasing gap width and reducing film thickness and an increase as a function of temperature up to 160°C. An observed morphological change in the sublimed film is realized at 190°C … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 6,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPosition and Obstacle Avoidance Algorithm in Robot SoccerAwang Hendrianto Pratomo, Anton Satria Prabuwono, Mohd Shanudin Zakaria et al.Problem statement: Robot soccer is an attractive domain for researchers and students working in the field of autonomous robots. However developing (coding, testing and debugging) robots for such domain is a rather complex task. Approach: This study concentrated on developing position and obstacle avoidance algorithm in robot soccer. This part is responsible for realizing soccer skills such as movement, shoot … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 11,821 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Cost Effective and User Friendly Approach to Design Wireline Formation TestsClara Bertolini, Giuseppe Tripaldi, Elena Manassero et al.Problem statement: Wireline formation testing (also named Mini-DSTs) are gaining more and more popularity as a possible alternative to conventional well testing especially where there are major environmental and economical constraints. The increased offshore exploration activity, which often implies highly risky and huge operational costs, makes the conventional well testing less attractive in favor of other technologies that can provide … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Leaf Total Nitrogen Content for Nitrogen Management in a Malaysian Paddy Field by Using Soil Plant Analysis Development Chlorophyll MeterA. Gholizadeh, M. S. M. Amin, A. R. Anuar, W. AimrunProblem statement: Laboratory plant testing is usually time-consuming and high-costing. Hence, plant nutrient variability must be measured rapidly and the information made known to the farmers before the new season starts. Site-specific crop management, well-established in some developed countries, is now being considered in other places such as Malaysia. Approach: The application of site-specific management principles and techniques to diverse … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 9,238 accessesView PDFCite
