Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Rheological Properties of MR Fluid Based on Variation in Concentration of Iron ParticlesVikram G. Kamble, Shreedhar KolekarThe main aim of this study is to synthesize magneto-rheological fluid in laboratory using silicon oil as carrier oil and it is mixed with variation in concentration of iron particles of size around 4-9 µm, fine lithium grease is used as surfactant. Prepared MR fluid is tested under plate and cone type rheometer for finding is rheological properties like shear … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 14 Jan 2015 · 7,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRETRIEVAL OF 24 HOUR AEROSOL OPTICAL DEPTHS FROM MIE LIDAR DATASiriluk Ruangrungrote, Pichet Limsuwan, Arunee IntasornTemporal Aerosol Optical Depths (AODs) of Phimai district, Nakhon Ratchasima province in Thailand were retrieved from measured Mie lidar data on 17-20 February 2005 using Fernald method. The ground-based station was selected for its high and diverse local agricultural activities contributed to the aerosol content which allows for various parameters such as concentration, size distribution and aerosol optical properties to … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,517 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Exogeneous Compounds on Biosorption of EndosulfanDeepika Dave, A. K. DikshitProblem statement: Organochlorine pesticide endosulfan is widely used as a replacement for DDT and dieldrin in many parts of the world. Presence of residual pesticides in the water, air and soil environment was confirmed since 1960s. Such Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are of concern because of their long-term subtle effects on hormones, the immune system and reproduction. Therefore, it becomes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysical Composition, Nutrients and Contaminants of Typical Waste Dumping SitesH. Meuser, K. S. Grewal, R. Anlauf et al.Problem statement: The composition of wastes is quite variable depending upon the generating source and mode of collection. Most of the material from the domestic activities will be organic in nature and contains essential plant nutrients, whereas the dumping material of commercial and industrial wastes usually contains appreciable amounts of heavy and potentially toxic metals and organic pollutants. Approach: Objective … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simplified Analytical Modeling of the Hole Erosion TestMohammed Bezzazi, Abdellatif Khamlichi, Miguel Prron Vera et al.Problem statement: Internal erosion occurs in soils containing fine particles under the action of high pressure gradients that could result from water discharge. This phenomenon can yield in its final stage to the formation of piping which constitutes a real threat for hydraulics infrastructures as it can precipitate their entire rupture in very short time. In order to mitigate this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2010 · 8,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of the Cuttings Cleaning During the Drilling OperationHussain H. Al-Kayiem, Nadia Mohd Zaki, Muhamad Z. Asyraf, Mahir Elya ElfeelProblem statement: Oil well cleaning is the ability of a drilling fluid to suspend and transport drilled cuttings from the down hole (bit face) to the surface. The cleaning performance was affected by many factors such as fluid viscosity, annular flow velocity, angle of inclination and drill cuttings size and shape and. Approach: Navier-Stoke equations, the continuity equation and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Coupled Tank Liquid Levels System Based on Swarm Adaptive Tuning of Hybrid Proportional-Integral Neural Network ControllerM.S. Ramli, RM.T. Raja Ismail, M.A. Ahmad et al.Problem statement: Accuracy and stability of many systems in chemical and process industries which has Two-Input Two-Output (TITO) is one of the key factors of process which have cross coupling between process input and output. Approach: Unlike traditional neural network weight adaptation using gradient descent method, Particles Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique was utilized for adaptive tuning of neural network weights … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,828 accessesView PDFCite

Masoud, Hanita Daud et al.Problem statement: Fabrication of nano materials particularly nano inductors at low sintering temperature remains a challenge. This study was carried out as our initial response to obtain a nano-size inductors, which is aluminium iron garnet using low sintering temperature. Approach: The aluminum iron garnet (Al3Fe5O12) nano crystals were prepared by sol-gel technique. The starting solution is a mixture of iron … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimum Setting of Controller Using Soft Computing Techniques for a Chemical SystemG. Glandevadhas, S. Pushpakumar, S.V. Muruga PrasadProblem statement: The aim of this study is to present an intelligent tuning technique for PID controller that are simple and still result in good closed loop behavior. The idea is to start with a tuned conventional PID controller, replace it with an equivalent intelligent controllers like Fuzzy, ANN, Genetic and PSO techniques implies fine tuned nonlinear PID controller which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 6 Oct 2011 · 7,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExperimental Study of Parameters Influencing the Purity of Potassium Sulfate Fertilizer Produced from Jordanian Raw MaterialsMousa GougazehThe general objective of the present investigation was to make a contribution towards improving the purity of the produced potassium sulfate from (KCl, Arab Potash Company-Dead Sea) and (H2SO4, Jordanian Phosphate Company).
