Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing a Truss-Inspired Model with the Uniform Strength Optimization Theory to Predict Spongy Bone Geometry in Proximal FemurHamed Pishdast, Farzam Farahmand, Gholamreza RouhiThis paper presents a new naïve approach for simulating bone remodeling process. It is based on the uniform strength theory of optimization and employs a truss-like model for bone. The truss was subjected to external loads including 5 point loads simulating the hip joint contact forces and 3 muscular forces at the attachment sites of the muscles to the bone … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncremental DataGrid Mining Algorithm for Mobility Prediction of Mobile UsersU. Sakthi, R.S. BhuvaneswaranProblem statement: Mobility prediction is the important issue in Personal Communication Systems (PCS). Mobile users moving logs are stored in data grid located in different locations. Distributed data mining algorithm is applied on this moving logs to generate the mobility pattern of mobile users. As new moving logs are added to the data grid, existing mobility pattern becomes invalid and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 6,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRandom Graph Generation Based p-Method and Box Method for the Evaluation of Power-Aware Routing Protocols of Ad hoc NetworksSaleh H. Al-SharaehThe objective of this paper is to investigate the best solution such that on which decision should be made to forward a wireless packet. The decision should be made in such a way to keep the node alive by choosing an alternate path, through those nodes that have more power reserve. Minimizing the consumption of the reserve power will results … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTraveling Salesman Approach for Solving Petrol Distribution Using Simulated AnnealingZuhaimy Ismail, Wan Rohaizad Wan IbrahimThis research presents an attempt to solve a logistic company's problem of delivering petrol to petrol station in the state of Johor. This delivery system is formulated as a travelling salesman problem (TSP). TSP involves finding an optimal route for visiting stations and returning to point of origin, where the inter-station distance is symmetric and known. This real world application … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Hidden Layer Neurons on the Classification of Optical Character Recognition Typed Arabic NumeralsNidal F. Shilbayeh, Mahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: The effect of varying the number of nodes in the hidden layer and number of iterations are important factors in the recognition rate. In this paper, a novel and effective criterion based on Cross Pruning (CP) algorithm is proposed to optimize number of hidden neurons and number of iterations in Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural based recognition system. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Electric Power Distribution Using Hybrid Simulated Annealing ApproachWalid Ahmed, Alaa F. ShetaThe key goal of electric power distribution companies is to provide a high quality of service with a low cost of operation. The growing customer needs requires a re-distribution of the Power over various nodes of the Distributed Generation (DG) facilitates. The re-distribution might cause over load on various parts of the networks which if not correctly optimized might increase … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOperating System Support for Wireless Sensor NetworksAnt A. Fröhlich, Lucas F. WannerIn a wireless sensor network, several sensor nodes obtain local data and communicate among themselves in order to create a global vision of an object of study. The idea of a self-managed network of low-power, autonomous devices, that collects data from an environment and propagates information through a wireless link brought about several new challenges and requirements in application run-time … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Approach for Detecting Attacks in Mobile Adhoc NetworksV. Madhu Viswanatham, A. A. ChariThe security of data becomes more important with the increased use of commercial applications over wireless network environments. We presented an approach to handle various attacks for wireless networks. There were several problems of security in wireless networks due to intruders and different type of attacks such as Node Isolation, Route Disruption and Resource Consumption. There were better methods and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of Frictional Contact Problem During the Process of Metal WorkingNicolae PopThe quasistatic contact problem with dry friction, contributes to the achievement of a numerical model for the simultaneity of different kinds of viscoplastic, incompressible materials forming. Starting from a variational formulation of the problem, which extends the static case, a perturbed Lagrangean, discrete formulation within the framework of finite element method is obtained. On the contact boundary we have used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,293 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransversely Cracked Beam's Finite Elements with a Hinged EndM. Skrinar, T. PliberšekTwo new beam finite-elements to be used for the transverse displacement analysis of slender beams with transverse cracks are presented where the derivations are based on a simplified computational model. The beam stiffness matrixes are presented in symbolic forms for beams with a single transverse crack and a hinge at one of the nodes. Since in the derivations the corresponding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
