Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Position Controller for a Permanent Magnet Synchronous ActuatorChams-Eddine Feraga, Abdelkrim Moussaoui, Abdallah Bouldjedri, Ali YousfiProblem statement: The present study investigated with the application of a robust control scheme to improve the performance of a simplified indirect field oriented for small power surface mounted Permanent Magnet (PM) synchronous actuators. Approach: The suggested model was implemented using a simplified state feedback with no need to measure the current values to compute the control algorithm. Results: The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution onto a Low-Cost Natural Jordanian TripoliAtef S. ALzaydienProblem statement: It is well documented that lead is one of contaminants of industrial wastewaters and its pollution exists in the wastewater of many industries. As a result, recent research has focused on the development of cost effective alternatives using various natural sources and industrial wastes. In this setting, the use of low-cost agricultural materials, waste and residues for recovering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredicting Packet Transmission Data over IP Networks Using Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference SystemsSamira Chabaa, Abdelouhab ZeroualProblem statement: The statistical modeling for predicting network traffic has now become a major tool used for network and is of significant interest in many domains: Adaptive application, congestion and admission control, wireless, network management and network anomalies. To comprehend the properties of IP-network traffic and system conditions, many kinds of reports based on measured network traffic data have been … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombustion of Bimodal Nano/Micro Aluminum Suspension with New Reaction Rate ModelM. Bidabadi, N. Moallemi, I. Shafieenejad, M. JadidiIn this study a mathematical model for combustion of bimodal particle in lean flow was developed. The difference between structure of flame in this work and previous ones was that, in those flame was divided by five zones and reaction rate was considered to be constant in reaction zones and also zero in post flame zone. In reality it was … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDNA Sequence Optimization Based on Continuous Particle Swarm Optimization for Reliable DNA Computing and DNA NanotechnologyN. K. Khalid, Z. Ibrahim, T. B. Kurniawan et al.Problem statement: In DNA based computation and DNA nanotechnology, the design of good DNA sequences has turned out to be an essential problem and one of the most practical and important research topics. Basically, the DNA sequence design problem is a multi-objective problem and it can be evaluated using four objective functions, namely, Hmeasure, similarity, continuity and hairpin. Approach: There … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Traveling Salesman Problem as a Benchmark Test for a Social-Based Genetic AlgorithmN. A. AL-Madi, A. T. KhaderPresent research, showed Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) to compare values and results concerning the averages and best fits of both, Simple Standard Genetic Algorithm (SGA) and a new approach of Genetic Algorithms named Social-Based Genetic Algorithm (SBGA). Results from TSP test on Social-Based Genetic Algorithms (SBGA) were presented. Results were encouraging in Social-Based Genetic Algorithms (SBGA) performs better in finding … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Dark Current Reduction in Quantum Well 9 µm GaAs/AlGaAs Infrared Photodetectors with Improved DetectivityShahram Mohammad Nejad, Saeed Olyaee, Maryam PourmahyabadiIn this research, an optimization approach is presented to decrease the dark current in GaAs/AlGaAs QWIPs. The dark current noise is reduced by increasing Al density in barriers, decreasing detector dimensions and increasing the periodic length of the structure. In addition, increasing the number of periods can reduce both the dark current and responsivity. Therefore, devices can be optimally designed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbdominal and Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm ModelingMona Abdolrazaghi, Mehdi NavidBakhsh, Kamran HassaniModeling is a beneficial tool for understanding cardiovascular system functioning and pathophysiology of the system. The present study is concerned with left ventricle Pressure-Volume diagrams obtained by modeling of aortic aneurysms using the cardiovascular electronic system. In addition, these graphs were compared with a normal condition. The electrical circuit of the cardiovascular system consists of 42 segments including the main … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach for Testing Stability of 1-D Recursive Digital Filters Based on Lagrange MultipliersK. R. Santhi, N. Gangatharan, M. PonnavaikkoDigital filters have found their way into many products from every day consumer items such as mobile phones to advanced maritime and military communications and avionics systems. Design of digital filters faces two fundamental problems, their stability and synthesis. Recursive filters have more stability problems than nonrecursive filters. Stability of a filter can be determined by the location of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRarefied Gas Flow Modeling inside Rotating Circular CylinderN. PourmahmoudIn this study a rarefied gas flow inside a rotating circular cylinder by means of direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is investigated. A rarefied gas is supposed to be contained in a cylindrical domain, bonded by a rotational cylinder with smooth and diffuse-reflection surface. The top and bottom ends of domain is assumed to be speculary-reflecting. Special attention is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,451 accessesView PDFCite
