Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on the use of FRP Composites for Facades and Building SkinsChiara BedonFiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites represent a class of materials typically able to offer excellent mechanical, thermal and insulation properties, taking advantage of a combination of their constitutive fibers and polymers. Due to their intrinsic lightweight properties, FRP composites are in use for aerospace, automotive, marine industries and ballistic armor since several decades. Only in a subsequent phase, i.e. since … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 29 Sep 2016 · 9,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegration of Artificial Neural Network and Expert System for Material Classification of Natural Fibre Reinforced Polymer CompositesBasheer Ahmed Ahmed Ali, Mohd Sapuan Salit, Edi Syams Zainudin, Mohamed OthmanDiversified choice of materials from natural fibre reinforced polymer composites with similar properties complicate the materials selection for engineering products. Implementation of expert system alone makes it difficult to scrutinize the vast selected materials. Hybrid of expert system with neural network technology is desired. Classification of material through neural network under various criteria influences the decision in narrowing down the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetric for the Fusion of Synthetic and Real Imagery from Multimodal SensorsRami Nahas, S. P. KozaitisWe described a method to improve night vision for vehicle navigation that combined images from a thermal infrared camera and from a public database of stored images. Such an approach allows a night scene to appear as if it were daytime for automotive applications thereby increasing safety. We described a new metric to evaluate the fusion of such an augmented … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Dec 2014 · 7,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPOLYMER COMPOSITE MANUFACTURING USING A PULTRUSION PROCESS: A REVIEWA. M. Fairuz, S. M. Sapuan, E. S. Zainudin, C. N.A. JaafarPultrusion is the one of technologies to fabricate the polymer composites to be used in many industries such as in aerospace, automotive and construction industries. The high performance pultruded products that are produced by this technique offer high fibre content of at least 70%. In order to produce high quality pultruded profiles, there are variables such as fibre impregnation, resin … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Oct 2014 · 9,664 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NEW THERMAL PROCESS FOR THE RECOVERY OF METALS FROM ZINC-CARBON AND ALKALINE SPENT BATTERIESGirolamo Belardi, Roberto Lavecchia, Franco Medici et al.The aim of this study is the thermal recovery of manganese and zinc from a mixture of zinc-carbon and alkaline spent batteries containing 40.9% of Mn and 30.1% of Zn after a preliminary physical treatment. Separation of the metals is carried out on the basis of their different phase change temperatures, the boiling point of zinc being 906°C and 1564°C … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 26 Jul 2014 · 6,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost-Effective Wire-Harness Model by Using Polymer Optical FiberMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Farshad Nasimi KhamenehIn the past decade automotive industries faced the exponential increase of in-vehicle electronic devices.
