Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison of Twelve Dielectric Moisture Probes for Soil Water Measurement under Saline ConditionsM. Inoue, B.A. Ould Ahmed, T. Saito, M. IrshadRecently the research on the determination of soil water content and electrical conductivity using automated technique has received tremendous attention. Selecting the type of system that should be used for soil water measurement under saline conditions depends on its precision. A laboratory study was carried out to measure the soil water content (θ) and soil solution electrical conductivity (ECw) using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,450 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModel Identification and Wall-Plug Efficiency Measurement of White LED ModulesAhmed Zurfi, Jing ZhangIn this study, an experimental method is developed to measure the Wall-Plug efficiency of white LED modules without using any apparatus or sensors to measure the intensity of light. The tested LED module consists of a white LED chip-on-board affixed on a heatsink. The proposed method is mainly based on thermal and electrical models of the LED module. Measurements of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2016 · 8,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleROTATING A MEMS INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT FOR A FOOT-MOUNTED PEDESTRIAN NAVIGATIONKhairi Abdulrahim, Chris Hide, Terry Moore, Chris HillPedestrian navigation especially indoors suffers from the unavailability of useful GNSS signals for positioning. Alternatively, a low-cost Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) positioning system that does not depend on the GNSS signal can be used for indoor navigation. However its performance is still compromised because of the fast-accumulating heading drift error affecting such a low-cost IMU sensor. This results in a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 5 Jan 2015 · 8,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCAVITY SEGMENTATION AND STROKE VOLUME MEASUREMENT METHODS FROM ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC IMAGES: REVIEWAnas A. Abboud, Rahmita Wirza Rahmat, Suhaini Bin Kadiman et al.The complexity and criticality of heart disease diagnosis and treatment have frequently attracted the attention of researchers to develop approaches that can handle accurate clinical assessments. One of these complexities is measuring the Right Ventricle stroke volume. Therefore, different cardiac imaging techniques have been developed to help specialists in their regular clinical work and in the operating theatre to assist … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 20 Dec 2014 · 8,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBLOOD VESSEL DIAMETER MEASUREMENT ON RETINAL IMAGENidhal K. El Abbadi, Enas Al SaadiAccurate measurement of vessel diameters on retinal images plays an important part in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases and early signs of certain systemic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension. In this study we develop new method based on computer aided to determine the width of retinal blood vessels by analysing the color fundus image. Retinal vessel diameter was measured based on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 7,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFREE ENERGY MEASUREMENT DISTINGUISHES NORMAL FROM CANCER CELL, OFFERING A NEW PERSPECTIVE FOR CURING CANCERKambiz Afrasiabi, Jonathan Melekh-ShalomThe interplay of the second law of thermodynamics with the normal state and the methodology needed for the measurement of free energy of normal and malignant cells and its practical implications has not been clearly addressed in current literature. The second law of thermodynamics is one of the most fundamental laws governing the known universe at all levels. A normal … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 12 Oct 2013 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTwist Springback Measurement of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Propeller Blade Based on Profile DeviationAhmad Baharuddin Abdullah, Mohd Sapuan Salit, Zahurin Samad et al.Geometrical defects that are attributable to springback are among the major defects induced by the sheet metal forming process. Such defects are critical for sections with varying thickness, such as Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) propeller blades. In this study, the springback in the twist-bending of an AA6061 propeller blade was quantified by comparing the targeted and manufactured profiles obtained using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 31 May 2013 · 7,380 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasurement of Ground Level Ozone at Different LocationsYasmen A. Mustafa, Sinan J. MohammedProblem statement: Ground level ozone is the most important index substance of photochemical smog. Photochemical smog is now observed in many urban and industrial centers around the world and it has become a common phenomenon in many large cities. Ozone is a most harmful pollutant for humans, in addition it plays an important role in damaging vegetation and materials.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCalibration Coefficients for Residual Stress Measurement in Composite Materials Using Finite Element MethodA. G. Ghasemi, M. AkbarzadehProblem statement: Since the residual stresses can cause a scienificant reduction in strength of the mechanical components, having a semi-destructive measuring method that would predict and model theses stresses would be an advantage. The hole drilling method has been used, by many researches, for measurement of the residual stresses in different materials. In this article, the finite element method is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2012 · 9,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEmpirical Validation of Daylight Simulation Tool with Physical Model MeasurementYaik-Wah Lim, Mohd. Hamdan Ahmad, Dilshan Remaz OssenProblem statement: In recent years, daylighting simulation tools have been increasingly used by many architects, engineers and researchers to evaluate the day lighting performances of building design. Most of these tools employ CIE sky models for simulation. However, the accuracy and applicability of these tools for tropical sky are doubtable. The aim of this study was to validate the computer … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,899 accessesView PDFCite
