Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis Heat Flow Between Seat and Valve of ICEM.H. Shojaefard, A.R. Noorpoor, M. Ghaffarpour, F. MohammadiAn interesting application of system identification method is to investigate the heat transfer from the exhaust valve, especially the valve burning at high temperatures. This study consists of experimental and analytical works. For the experiment, two co-axial rods were used to transfer heat constantly at their contact surfaces. Using the measured temperatures at different locations of the rods and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Analysis of Pulsatile Blood Flow in a Stented Human Coronary Artery with a Flow DividerVahab Dehlaghi, Mohammad Tafazoli Shadpoor, Siamak NajarianShear stress is known to play a central role in restenosis formation and is sensitive to stent geometry. Local flow alterations created by a different stents without and with flow divider were studied to compare the hemodynamic effects of Stent design properties on restenosis in stented human coronary artery. Blood pressure and shear stress values were computed in three different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Dimensional Flow Analyses in a Diagonal Type MHD GeneratorTriwahju Hardianto, Nobuomi Sakamoto, Nob. HaradaThis paper studied development of the three dimensional flow fields in a diagonal channel MHD generator. A diagonal insulating sidewalls type channel is proposed in this work. The partial-differential equations for the three momentum, the enthalpy and the electrical fields are solved by a finite-difference calculation procedure. The turbulence phenomenon is represented by two-equation turbulence model. Calculations have been made … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Stability in Multiobjective Integer Linear Programming: A Stochastic ApproachWalied H. Sharif, Omar M. SaadIn this study we consider a multiobjective integer linear stochastic programming problem with individual chance constraints. We assume that there is randomness in the right-hand sides of the constraints only and that the random variables are normally distributed. Some stability notions for such problem are characterized. An auxiliary problem is discussed and an algorithm as well as an illustrative example … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConception and Development of a Dynamic Web Site: Dedicated to a University LibrarySafia Nait BahloulThe world wide web is a group of web pages related between them with hypertext links. That forms a huge and complex web mail. A single click allow us to surf from document to another. From each document we can refer to different types of information: text, sound, video. In most cases, first sites were static, their principal aim were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Successful Industrial Academic Cooperation, Development of Closed-cell Metallic FoamsSheng-Chung Tzeng, Chu-Wei Lin, Wei-Ping MaThis investigation proposes a successful case of industrial-academic cooperation between the Chienkuo Technology University and J. King Aluminum Inc. This study was proposed by the rotating machinery and heat transfer laboratory. They studied the optimal heat transfer and structural strength of closed-cell aluminum porous material.
