Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMultiresolution Analysis Based Effective Diagnosis of Induction MotorsHouda Ben Attia Sethom, Mediha Ajjabi GhedamsiProblem statement: Effective detection and localization of unbalance voltage supply affecting an induction motor may be compromised in presence of additionnal noise. Approach: In order to overcome the non possibility of the default detection and localization in presence of noise, the use of the discrete wavelet transform and especially the MultiResolution Analysis algorithm, to remove efficiently the noise associated to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 20 Feb 2012 · 8,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Genetic Algorithm for Scheduling n Jobs on a Single Machine with a Stochastic Controllable Processing, Tooling Cost and Earliness-Tardiness PenaltiesMohamed Ali Abdel-Fattah MansourProblem statement: In this research, we addressed the problem of minimizing the earliness-tardiness penalties and manufacturing costs of a single machine with a stochastic controllable processing and tooling cost. Approach: We developed a mathematical non-linear integer programming model and its linearised version to find the optimal solution. We introduced a new genome representation in single machine scheduling literature that evolved … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSolving the Periodic Maintenance Scheduling Problem via Genetic Algorithm to Balance Workforce Levels and Maintenance CostMohamed Ali Abdel-Fattah MansourProblem statement: In this article we address the multi-objective Periodic Maintenance Scheduling Problem (PMSP) of scheduling a set of cyclic maintenance operations for a given set of machines through a specified planning period to minimize the total variance of workforce levels measured in man-hours and maintenance costs with equal weights. Approach: The article proposed a mixed integer non-linear math programming … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2011 · 8,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of the Harmonics, the Fault Location and the Fault Resistance on the Performance of the Impedance-Type Distance RelayA. S. Khraiwish, M. Alshamasin, R. Kassasbeh et al.One of today's trends is continuously increasing the number and the power ratings of the non-linear loads connected to the electric power systems. These non-linear loads, such as power-electronic converters, are the main source of the harmonics that affect the performance of the impedance-type distance relays. It was found that, in the presence of harmonics, undesired operation of such type … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,567 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMINLP Optimization of Mechanical StructuresS. Šilih, T. Žula, Z. Kravanja, S. KravanjaWe presented optimization of mechanical structures, performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization approach. The MINLP is a combined continuous/discrete optimization technique, where a structural topology and standard/discrete sizes are optimized simultaneously with the continuous variables. Ddiscrete binary 0-1 variables were used to express the discrete decisions. For solution of this non-linear, continuous/discrete and non-convex MINLP class of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,125 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSatellite's Motion under the Effect of Magnetic TorqueRashmi Bhardwaj, Parsan KaurNon-integrability of planar oscillation of a satellite in an elliptic orbit under the influence of magnetic torque has been studied. The amplitude of the oscillation remains constant upto the second order of approximation. The analysis regarding the stability of the stationary planar oscillation of a satellite near the resonance frequency shows that discontinuity occurs in the amplitude of the oscillation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,818 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDistinguishing Congestion and Technical Inefficiency in Presence Undesirable OutputFaranak Hosseinzadeh Saljooghi, Mohammad Mahallati RayeniProblem statement: This study focuses on problems of congestion and how they might be treated in universities, also investigates a methodology to measure undesirable outputs congestion in addition to inputs congestion, from both theoretical and empirical perspectives. Congestion indicates an economic state where inputs are overly invested. Evidence of congestion occurs whenever reducing some inputs can increase outputs. Approach: The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 2 Aug 2011 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPerformance Evaluation of Chaotic Encryption TechniqueAncy Mariam Babu, K. John SinghDrastic growth in multimedia communication resulted to numerous security issues in the transmission of data. Moreover, the network used for the digital communication does not provide much security for the data transfer. During this time, tens of millions people using the internet options for essential communication and is being a tool for commercial field increased, So that security is an … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2013 · 7,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsResonance in Satellite's Motion Under Air DragRashmi Bhardwaj, Mani SethiThis article studies the attitude motion of a satellite in a circular orbit under the influence of central body of mass M and its moon of mass m, whose orbit is assumed to be circular and coplanar with the orbit of the satellite. The body is assumed to be tri-axial body with principal moments of inertia A < B < … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign and Simulation of a Soft Switched Dc Boost Converter for Switched Reluctance MotorX. Felix Joseph, S. Pushpa KumarProblem statement: This study presents the design and simulation of a soft switched boost converter for a switched reluctance motor with a closed loop controller. A soft switching scheme is proposed in the converter with minimum components, which reduces the switching loss and stress across the switch so that the harmonic generation is reduced in the output. The switch used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 2 Feb 2012 · 7,176 accessesView PDFCite
