Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDecentralized Controller Design for Static Synchronous Compensator Using Robust Quantitative Feedback Theory MethodSeyed Abbas Taher, Reza Hematti, Ali Abdolalipour, Majid NematiThe Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) provides shunt compensation in similar way to the Static VAR Compensator (SVC) but utilizes a voltage source converter rather than capacitors and reactor. In practice systems use simple Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers for control of STATCOM. However, since the PI control parameters were usually tuned based on classical or trial-and-error approaches, they were incapable of obtaining … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Simulation and Parametric Studies of Perfobond Rib ConnectorSuhaib Yahya Kasim Al-Darzi, Ai Rong Chen, Yu Qing LiuSimulating the push-out test and conducting parametric study using finite element model are conducted using perfobond connectors. The finite element model was verified through comparing with push-out test results. The verified finite element model was then used to conduct parametric study aiming to investigate the effect of several parameters, such as height and thickness of connector, cross sectional area and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Total Productivity PCA Model for Assessment and Improvement of Electrical Manufacturing SystemsAli Azadeh, Farid GhaderiThis study presents a framework for assessment of electrical manufacturing systems based on a total machine productivity approach and multivariate analysis. Furthermore, the total model is developed by Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and validated and verified by Numerical Taxonomy (NT) and non-parametric correlation methods, namely, Spearman correlation experiment and Kendall Tau. To achieve the objectives of this study, a comprehensive … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Analysis of Pressure Pulses in the Jerk Fuel Injection SystemsR. A. Baker, T. FirozComputer software has been developed and described in the present study of thorough parametric analysis and design of a mechanical diesel fuel injection system. The method is based on the numerical solution of one dimensional, unsteady, incompressible flow equations through the fuel pipe along with appropriate initial condition, pump end boundary condition and nozzle end boundary condition. Method of characteristics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Effects of Climate Change and Variability on Water Resources: A Case Study of the Cheliff Basin in AlgeriaYamina Elmeddahi, Hacene Mahmoudi, Abderrahmane Issaadi et al.In aim to well understand of the association between climate change, variability and their impact on water resources availability, an analysis was conducted of the trends in rainfall and stream flows across the Cheliff basin in Algeria. Sen’s non-parametric estimator of slope was employed to estimate the extent of tendencies, whose statistical significance was measured by the Mann-Kendall (MK) and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 12 May 2016 · 9,515 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Residual Axial Load Carrying Capacity of Reinforced Concrete (RC) Columns Subjected to Extreme Dynamic LoadsMasoud Abedini, Azrul A. Mutalib, Sudharshan N. Raman et al.The evaluation of residual axial load carrying capacity of Reinforced Concrete (RC) columns to explosion load is significant for protection of buildings. The few investigations conducted on residual axial load carrying capacity of RC columns when subjected to blast loads. Therefore, the overall aim of this research is to generate equations on the blast capacity of axially and uniaxial loaded … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 5 May 2017 · 8,099 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 · 6,724 accessesView PDFCite
