Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWater Hammer Analysis by Characteristic MethodA.R. Lohrasbi, R. AttarnejadRapid changes in the velocity of fluid in closed conduits generate large pressure, which are transmitted through the system with the speed of sound. When the fluid medium is a liquid the pressure surges and related phenomena are described as water hammer. Water hammer is caused by normal operation of the system, such as valve opening or closure, pump starts … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,701 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFractional Lion Algorithm-An Optimization Algorithm for Data ClusteringSatish Chander, P. Vijaya, Praveen DhyaniClustering divides the data available as bulk into meaningful, useful groups (Clusters) without any prior knowledge about the data. Cluster analysis provides an abstraction from individual data objects to the clusters in which those objects reside. It is a key technique in the data mining and has become an important issue in many fields. This paper presents a novel Fractional … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 7 · 12 Aug 2016 · 7,673 accessesView PDFCite
