Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Stochastic and Deterministic Methods for Mapping Environmental Noise from Opencast QuarriesDario Lippiello, Guido Alfaro Degan, Mario PinzariAn accurate mapping of the acoustic spatial variability generated by quarrying plants constitutes an important step in the assessment of the environmental compatibility of the extraction site with the surrounding area. This paper refers to the results of a study comparing performances obtained by stochastic and deterministic methods to determine the acoustic climate of the areas surrounding opencast quarries. To … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 28 Mar 2016 · 7,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Guaranteed Time and Rate Control Method for Improving QoS in WLANA. Anitha, J. JayakumariWireless Local Area Network is a mobile network, which connects the users in a small specific area. The devices within the area connect with each other through the wireless access points. The main requirements for the connection between the wireless devices are the time and the power. The transmission time between the wireless devices should be less and the power … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 10 Mar 2016 · 7,330 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWelded Connections of Wind Turbine Towers under Fatigue Loading: Finite Element Analysis and Comparative StudyNafsika Stavridou, Evangelos Efthymiou, Charalampos C. BaniotopoulosIncreased contemporary energy needs have led to multiple investments on wind power plants and structural improvements are considered necessary for the construction of taller, more robust and more economical structures. Tubular steel wind turbine towers that are the prevailing structural configuration, demand welding of circular subparts to construct the tower structure. These circumferential welds between tower subparts and between the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Aug 2015 · 8,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Algorithm for Variable and Samples Selection in Multivariate Calibration ProblemsKelton de Souza Santiago, Anderson Silva Soares, Telma Woerle de Lima et al.One of the main problems of quantitative analytical chemistry is to estimate the concentration of one or more species from the values of certain physicochemical properties of the system of interest. For this it is necessary to construct a calibration model, i.e., to determine the relationship between measured properties and concentrations. The multivariate calibration is one of the most successful … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Tunnel Face Stability through a Ground Stress Analysis with a Hemispherical Geometry ApproximationPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the stability of the excavation face is an important aspect in the design of a tunnel. When it is not possible to ensure excavation face stability in natural conditions, it is in fact necessary to intervene with remarkably costly reinforcement operations. The analysis of the stability conditions of an excavation face can be conducted, with a certain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 8 Jan 2015 · 6,730 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime-Delay Estimation using the Characteristic Roots of Delay Differential EquationsSun Yi, Wonchang Choi, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: For ordinary dynamic systems (i.e., non-delayed), various methods such as linear least-squares, gradient-weighted least-squares, Kalman filtering and other robust techniques have been widely used in signal processing, robotics, civil engineering. On the other hand, time-delay estimation of systems with unknown time-delay is still a challenging problem due to difficulty in formulation caused. Approach: The presented method makes use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer to Analyze Heavy Metals in Moss SamplesMohd Zahari Abdullah, Ahmad Saat, Zaini HamzahProblem statement: Mosses had been widely used as bioindicator especially to study the levels of trace metals pollutants in the surrounding ambient air because of their high efficiency to accumulate heavy metals contamination. There had been increasing demand to get a suitable analytical tools to determine the chemical contents of moss samples in this type of media. This study was … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Maximum Gear-Tooth Operating Bending Stresses Derived from Niemann's Analytical Procedure and the Finite Element MethodAndonios D. Tsolakis, Konstandinos G. RaptisProblem statement: Main purpose of this study was to investigation toothed gear loading problems using the Finite Element Method. Approach: We used Niemann’s equations to compare maximum bending stress which was developed at critical gear-tooth flank point during gear meshing, applied for three distinct spur-gear sizes, each having different teeth number, module and power rating. Results: The results emerging after … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite

This research is part of developing an automated wireless red palm weevil detection and control system. The focus for this study was to develop red palm Weevil recognition system which can detect RPW in an image and can be used in wireless image … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 9,103 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simple Algorithm to Assess the Speed Stability of Induction GeneratorsAlexandre de Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira MotaProblem statement: The speed stability if Induction Generators (IG) can be defined as its ability to remain connected to the electric network, operating at a mechanical speed close to the speed associated to the actual system frequency, after being subjected to a perturbation. This IG behavior is normally studied using dynamical methods that are determined through time-consuming simulations and are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,554 accessesView PDFCite
