Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on Geomechanical Properties of Tropical Organic Soils and PeatBujang B.K. Huat, Afshin Asadi, Sina KazemianProblem statement: Organic soils and peat were believed to be geotechnically problematic due to their very high compressibility, very low shear strength and difficult accessibility. Although conventional soil mechanics theory could be applied to the soils, it was found that important anomalies existed which required special considerations. Correlations between geomechanical parameters for the soils were known to be important for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 10,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign Analysis of High-Speed Axial-Flux GeneratorM. Sadeghierad, A. Darabi, H. Lesani, H. MonsefProblem Statement: Axial flux permanent magnet machines are regarded as compact high efficiency generators for micro-turbines employed in the distributed power generation systems. High-speed rotor of the generator causes some designing and modeling problems. Sensitivity analysis tasks of the machine parameters are difficult and completely different in comparison with the problems associated with conventional machines. Approach: This article presents a … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,559 accessesView PDFCite
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 abstractOptic Disc Segmentation in Fundus Images with Deep Learning Object DetectorManal AlGhamdiThe Optic Disc (OD) is an important anatomical landmark in the fundus image to diagnose a myriad of diseases, such as glaucoma and Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) and to locate structures such as the macula and the main vascular arcade. However, locating and segmenting the OD are not easy tasks. Previous methods have employed a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) without … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 14 May 2020 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Intelligent Control System for an Electrically Power Assisted Cycle (EPAC)Venura Subuddhika Chandraprabha Dissanayake, Risira Erantha Kannangara, Muthukudaarachchige Uvindu Bigumjith Dias et al.This paper is focused on proposing an enhanced controller for a hybrid drive mechanism in an Electrically Power Assisted Cycle (EPAC) to improve the battery energy utilization while maintaining the rider’s physical comfort. A real time data acquisition system was set up on a conventional bicycle using sensors and interfacing modules to verify the operating parameters. A fuzzy logic based … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2018 · 8,350 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Constraint-Handling Technique for Genetic Algorithms using a Violation FactorAdam Chehouri, Rafic Younes, Jean Perron, Adrian IlincaOver the years, several meta-heuristic algorithms were proposed and are now emerging as common methods for constrained optimization problems. Among them, genetic algorithms (GA’s) shine as popular evolutionary algorithms (EA’s) in engineering optimization. Most engineering design problems are difficult to resolve with conventional optimization algorithms because they are highly nonlinear and contain constraints. In order to handle these constraints, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 7 · 31 Aug 2016 · 8,751 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Economic System for Screening of Diabetic Retinopathy Using Fundus ImagesG.S. Annie Grace Vimala, S. Kaja MohideenDelayed length of time of the diabetes may influence the tiny blood vessels of the retina bringing about Diabetic Retinopathy (DR). It is one of the major root causes of the blindness across the globe. Routine eye screening of patients with diabetes serves to discover DR at the early stage. The conventional visual assessment protocol is time consuming and laborious. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 5 Jan 2015 · 6,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF Mg-Cu-Zn FERRITES IRRADIATED BY γ-RAYS OF 60Co SOURCEMohamed Eltabey, H. Ebrahim Hassan, Ismail Abd Elrahim AliFerrite samples with chemical formula MgxCu0.5-xZn0.5Fe2O4 (x = 0.0, 0.2 and 0.4) was prepared by the conventional ceramic method. The enhanced changes in the dc/ac resistivity and the dielectric constant due to γ-rays irradiation by 60Co source were measured using the two probes technique. The samples showed decreasing of their resistivity at room temperature after irradiation for both dc and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2013 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDESIGN OF FUZZY LOGIC CONTROLLER FOR ONLINE SPEED REGULATION OF DC MOTOR USING PWM TECHNIQUE BASED ON LABORATORY VIRTUAL INSTRUMENT ENGINEERING WORKBENCHPrema Kannan, Senthil Kumar Natarajan, Subhransu Sekar DashThis study details online speed regulation of DC motor using PWM technique based on LabVIEW. A fuzzy logic controller is designed to change the pulse width of switching signal applied to the converter and thereby the voltage fed to the armature of the separately excited DC motor to regulate the speed. The proposed system is connected to the server computer … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 4 Jul 2013 · 6,715 accessesView PDFCite
