Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Valve Lift Effect on Air Flow and Coefficient of Discharge of Four Stroke Engines Based on ExperimentAbdul Rahim Ismail, Rosli Abu Bakar, SeminThe coefficient of discharge (CD) is defined as the ratio of actual discharge to ideal discharge. In an engine environment, ideal discharge considers an ideal gas and the process to be free from friction, surface tension, etc. Coefficients of discharge are widely used to monitor the flow efficiency through various engine components and are quite useful in improving the performance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign Parameters Optimization Simulation of a Prototype Segmented Rubber Track Vehicle for Sepang Peat in MalaysiaAtaur Rahman, Azmi Yahya, Mohd. Zohadie et al.This study describes a simulation model for studying the basic design parameters of a special rubber track vehicle with rigid link tracks system on Sepang peat terrain in Malaysia. The prototype parameters for a track system, including proper track width, ground contact length, pitch and grouser height, idler diameter and location, sprocket diameter and location, road-wheel diameter and geometrical arrangement, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuilding Energy Modeling Using Artificial Neural NetworksMaya Arida, Nabil Nassif, Rand Talib, Taher Abu-LebdehAccurate modeling of total building energy is now vital to reduce energy consumption. This is especially true for buildings since they are considered as the largest energy consumer in the United States. This paper investigates modeling methods for building energy-systems using non-linear auto-regression artificial neural networks. The proposed model can forecast the whole building energy consumptions given the four input … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 7,125 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-Phase Support Vector Regression Soft Sensor for Online Product Quality Prediction in Glutamate Fermentation ProcessRongjian Zheng, Feng PanGlutamate fermentation is inherently nonlinear, multi-phase and an aerobic fermentation process. As long measurement delays and expensive apparatus cost, on-line measurement of the product concentration is not necessarily available. The present fermentation process monitoring and quality prediction involve manual interpretation of highly informative, however, the concentrations of substrates, biomass and products are only low frequency off-line measurements. In this paper, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessIn the abstractReal-Time Automatic Inspection System for the Classification of PCB Flux DefectsAng Teoh Ong, Aouache Mustapha, Zulkifilie Bin Ibrahim et al.Automatic inspection based on a real-time machine vision system may serve as substitute for the manual human visual inspection of flux defects in Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), which often cause damage on the board in the form of corrosions that harm the assembly. The concept of automatic inspection contributes to the improvement of the manufacturing quality of PCBs and facilitates … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Aug 2015 · 8,708 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NEW AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM FAN MODEL BASED ON NUMERICAL ANALYSISNabil Nassif, Raymond Tesiero, Nihal AlRaeesA large portion of energy use in buildings is attributed to air movement devices. Accurate estimation of fan performance is a key element in maximizing fan efficiency. This study proposes a new fan model that can be used in several applications such as optimization and fault detection and can also be incorporated into any commercial building models. The model uses … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 14 Mar 2014 · 8,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSPECKLE REDUCTION IN ULTRASOUND IMAGES USING NEIGHSHRINK AND BILATERAL FILTERINGR. Vanithamani, G. UmamaheswariSpeckle is a random multiplicative noise which obscures the perception and extraction of fine details in ultrasound images and speckle reduction is necessary to improve the visual quality of ultrasound images for better diagnosis. This study aims at introducing an algorithm by hybridizing bilateral filter with NeighShrink. The bilateral filter is applied before decomposition and after reconstruction of the image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2013 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWAVELET BASED CONTENT BASED IMAGE RETRIEVAL USING COLOR AND TEXTURE FEATURE EXTRACTION BY GRAY LEVEL COOCURENCE MATRIX AND COLOR COOCURENCE MATRIXJeyanthi Prabhu, Jawahar Senthil KumarIn this study we proposes an effective content based image retrieval by color and texture based on wavelet coefficient method to achieve good retrieval in efficiency. Color feature extraction is done by color Histogram. The texture feature extraction is acquired by Gray Level Coocurence Matrix (GLCM) or Color Coocurence Matrix (CCM). This study provides better result for image retrieval by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 7 Nov 2013 · 7,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of MultiScale Hidden Markov Modeling Wavelet Coefficients to fMRI Activation DetectionFangyuan Nan, Yaonan Wang, Xiaoping MaProblem Statement: The problem of detection of functional magnetic resonance images (fMRIs), that is, to decide active and nonactive regions of human brain from fMRIs is studied in this paper. fMRI research is finding and will find more and more applications in diagnosing and treating brain diseases like depression and schizophrenia. At its initial stage fMRI detection are pixel-wise methods, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Iterative Algorithms with Accelerate Convergence for Solving Implicit Difference EquationsQing-Fu Liu, Wei-Jun Zhong, Mancho ManevThis study focuses on the solution of implicit difference equations, which are very difficult to compute in parallel for the diffusion equation. For improving the convergence rates and the properties of gradual-approach convergence of Segment-Classic-Implicit-Iterative (SCII) and Segment-Crank-Nicolson-Iterative (SCNI) algorithms realizing efficient iterative computation in parallel by segmenting grid domains, SCII and SCNI algorithms with accelerated convergence are studied and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 6,799 accessesView PDFCite
