Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHAZOP Analysis Management System with Dynamic Visual Model AidNan Bin Mad Sahar, Syahril Ardi, Suzuki Kazuhiko et al.Problem statement: Ensuring safe operability and minimizing risk is the key component to prevent negative impact in all industries dealing with toxic, reactive, flammable and explosive. Hazard and Operability (HAZOP), a preliminary and systematic approach for identifying hazards has been unquestionably successful in reducing incidents by mitigating the consequence of major accident in the industries process facility. However, laborious work, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Empirical Prediction Formula for Penetration of Ogive Nose Hard Missile into Concrete TargetsAhmad Mujahid Ahmad Zaidi, Qadir Bux Alias Imran Latif, Ismail Abdul Rahman, Muhammad Yusof IsmailProblem statement: Concrete is basic construction material used for most of structures. However, the typical vital structures have to be designed as self-protective such as nuclear plants, power plants, weapon industries, weapons storage places and water retaining structures, against any threats like natural disaster tragedy incident or intentionally produced by horrible incidents such as dynamic loading, incident occurs in nuclear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,448 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Vegetative Induced Deformation in an Unsaturated SoilNazri Bn Ali, Mu’azu Mohammed AbdullahiProblem statement: Tree root water-uptake increases soil strength by increasing the soil matric suction due to pore pressure dissipation in a soil mass, inducing increases in vertical total stress or water extraction, the effective stress to which the soil strata is subjected to may also increase. This causes volume change which might be detrimental to geotechnical structures and shallow foundation. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Study of Stability Testing Approaches of Two-Dimensional Recursive Digital FiltersK. R. Santhi, M. Ponnavaikko, N. GangatharanThere are many problems in science and engineering whose solution is applied in the design of Multi-Dimensional (MD) digital filters. Digital filtering finds an important position in the field of digital signal and image processing. Recently there had been a great deal of interest in the design and stability analysis of Two-Dimensional (2-D) recursive digital filters. The design techniques for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Protein 3D Structure Prediction Accuracy using Dense Regions Areas of Secondary Structures in the Contact MapAmer F. Al-Badarneh, Mohammad A. Khalil, Mo'taz A. Al-HamiProblem Statement: The protein folding problem is a fundamental problem in structural molecular biology. This problem describes how a protein is transformed from its primary sequence (i.e., amino acid sequence) into the three dimensional structure (3D structure) for this sequence that determines the function of the protein. The 3D structure of a protein can be represented using a square symmetrical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study of Near Wake Flow Behind a Rectangular CylinderAbdollah Shadaram, Mahdi Azimi Fard, Noorallah RostamyThe turbulence characteristics of the near wake flow behind a rectangular cylinder is investigated in a two-dimensional analysis using a hot-wire anemometer. The time-averaged and fluctuating components of the velocity are measured for a cylinder having various width-to-height (b h-1) ratios. The measurements are carried out in a low-speed wind tunnel. Data from hot-wire anemometer is collected by a data … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFace Recognition Based on Nonlinear Feature ApproachEimad E.A. Abusham, Andrew T.B. Jin, Wong E. Kiong, G. DebashisFeature extraction techniques are widely used to reduce the complexity high dimensional data. Nonlinear feature extraction via Locally Linear Embedding (LLE) has attracted much attention due to their high performance. In this paper, we proposed a novel approach for face recognition to address the challenging task of recognition using integration of nonlinear dimensional reduction Locally Linear Embedding integrated with Local … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on Three Dimensional RC Infilled Frame - RC Plane Frame Interactions With Slab for Seismic ResistanceSuyamburaja Arulselvan, K. SubramanianExperimental investigation was planned and conducted to study the influence of brick masonry infill and slab in a three-dimensional reinforced cement concrete frame. In this study, one-fifth scale 3D R.C frame representing single story, three bays with central bay brick infill at the sides and a long single bay without infill in the middle of the frame along loading direction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRotational Linear Discriminant Analysis Using Bayes Rule for Dimensionality ReductionAlok Sharma, Kuldip K. PaliwalLinear discriminant analysis (LDA) finds an orientation that projects high dimensional feature vectors to reduced dimensional feature space in such a way that the overlapping between the classes in this feature space is minimum. This overlapping is usually finite and produces finite classification error which is further minimized by rotational LDA technique. This rotational LDA technique rotates the classes individually … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Solution Code for Structural Analysis upon Joint ElementS. A. Sadrnejad, M. LabibzadehThe analysis of large structures mostly requires a complete three dimensional finite element discretization. Stability of such structures includes not only the stability of structure itself but also that of foundation as well as interconnection elements. The general instability of a structure may be affected by two aspects, firstly, an inappropriate preliminary classical design of the structure and inadequate control … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,442 accessesView PDFCite
