Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsElectric Field in Polymeric Isolators of the 500kV Voltage ClassVitor Chaves De Oliveira, Huederson Aparecido Botura Da Silva, Alexandre De Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira MotaThis study presents a detailed study of the electric field in polymeric isolators of the 500kV voltage class through modifications in the dimensions of the anti-corona ring. That is, by varying the three dimensions of the anti-corona ring: height (h), distance of the anti-corona ring conductor (r) and the diameter of the anti-corona ring conductor (d); it was possible to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 12 Jun 2013 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical Prediction Model for Temperature Distributions in Concrete at Early AgesWondwosen Ali, Girum UrgessaA finite element-finite difference numerical model is developed for predicting non-uniform temperature development in hydrating concrete with respect to time and space. The results obtained from this model can be used by structural and construction engineers to predict critical thermal stresses induced due to differential temperatures between the core and the surface of the concrete at early ages and between … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2013 · 7,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of the Stability of Underground Rock Pillars through a Probabilistic ApproachMassimo Guarascio, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: When the room and pillar mining method is adopted, the dimensioning of the rock pillars is one of the most important aspects that need to be faced from the engineering point of view. The available calculation methods are usually simplified and involve the areas of influence method for the evaluation of the mean axial stress induced in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 30 Jun 2012 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Reduced Finite Element Model for Analyzing the Transverse Shear Stiffness of Truss-Like Core Sandwich BeamSuphattharachai Chomphan, Manit LeekitwattanaProblem statement: In structural analysis using finite element software, a number of finite element equations affect the speed of calculation time. A reduced finite element model should be used for analyzing structural responses to reduce the calculation time. Approach: This study presents the analysis of transverse shear stiffness of truss-like core sandwich beam using the reduced finite element model based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 4 Aug 2011 · 6,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRiver Embankment and Bank Failure: A Study on Geotechnical Characteristics and Stability AnalysisMd. Bellal Hossain, Toshinori Sakai, Md. Zakaria HossainProblem statement: Embankment failure and riverbank erosion are common problem in Bangladesh. Almost every year earthen embankments and riverbanks are facing problems like erosion, breaching or retirements. Among many reasons the major causes are considered due to the use of geotechnically unstable materials, improper method of construction, seepage and sliding. In this study the problem is considered geotechnical point of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 11,002 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Flux linkage Characteristics and Inductance of a Submersible Switched Reluctance Motor using Software ToolsSundaram Maruthachalam, Navaneethan PalaniswamyProblem statement: The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is an old member of the Electric Machines Family. It’s simple structure, ruggedness and inexpensive manufacturing capability make it more attractive for Industrial applications. Now, the applications of switched reluctance motors in various industrial fields are tried by many engineers. However, switched reluctance motors are not used so far in submersible underwater motor … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReliability Assessment of Buckling Strength for Compressed Cylindrical Shells with Interacting Localized Geometric ImperfectionsJalal El Bahaoui, Abdellatif Khamlichi, Larbi El Bakkali, Ali LimamProblem statement: Elastic cylindrical shells are common structures in the fields of civil engineering and engineering mechanics. These thin-walled constructions may undergo buckling when subjected to axial compression. Buckling limits to large extent their strength performance. This phenomenon depends hugely on the initial distributed or localized geometric imperfections that are present on the shell structure. Localized geometric imperfections result in … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2010 · 8,320 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of the Parameters Affecting Warping In Radial Forging ProcessF. Djavanroodi, M. Sabeghi, K. AbriniaRadial forging is a process in which one or two punches move axially causing a radial flow into a die cavity by means of which a flange is formed. During forging, warping, in which the lower face of thin flange rises from the die face may occur. To better understand the effect of parameters affecting the warping in radial forging … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,541 accessesView PDFCite
