Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicroelectrical Mechanical Systems Switch for Designing Multi-Band AntennaA.H.M. Zahirul Alam, Md. Rafiqul Islam, Sheroz Khan, Muhammad Mahbubur RashidProblem statement: In this study Microelectrical Mechanical System (MEMS) switches were proposed to design a reconfigurable/multi-band antenna to replaced PIN diode switches or semiconductor switches due to lower insertion losses, good isolation, much lower intermodulation distortion, and lower power consumption. The antenna is able to operate at very high frequencies. Approach: A reconfigurable antenna that is capable to operate at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMINLP Optimization of Mechanical StructuresS. Šilih, T. Žula, Z. Kravanja, S. KravanjaWe presented optimization of mechanical structures, performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization approach. The MINLP is a combined continuous/discrete optimization technique, where a structural topology and standard/discrete sizes are optimized simultaneously with the continuous variables. Ddiscrete binary 0-1 variables were used to express the discrete decisions. For solution of this non-linear, continuous/discrete and non-convex MINLP class of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,125 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Computational Investigation into the Effect of Equal Channel Angular Processing on the Mechanical Properties of Severely Deformed ZK 60 Alloy Validated by ExperimentsOmar Almenaif, Yaqoub Alhumaydani, Mohammed Alnafisah et al.In this study, the response surface method and finite-element analysis were employed to model the ECAP processing for biodegradable magnesium alloy ZK 60 behavior at 250°C. Using Finite-Element (FE) analysis data was extracted and compared to the what was found by experimenting in order to investigate the effects of the ECAP processing parameters on the plastic deformation behavior of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2020 · 7,238 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Use of Nano Silica for Improving Mechanical Properties of Hardened Cement PasteIntisar Kuli, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Elham H. Fini, Sameer A. HamoushThe influence of adding Nano particles of silicon dioxide (SiO2) on cement pastes was studied for both water and vacuum curing methods. Specimens made up of different percentage of Nano Silica were tested at different ages ranging from 3-56 days. The effect of (5-20 nm) Nano-Silica on the strength development of Nano-cement was determined using Material Tests System (MTS). The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Mar 2016 · 9,084 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleINVESTIGATING EFFECTS OF INTRODUCTION OF CORNCOB ASH INTO PORTLAND CEMENTS CONCRETE: MECHANICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIESAntonio Price, Ryan Yeargin, Ellie Fini, Taher Abu-LebdehThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the benefits of replacing Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) with Corncob Ash (CCA) blended cements. The cement industry contributes considerable amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions into the atmosphere. The main contribution of CO2 emissions from cement production results from the process of creating Calcium Oxide (CaO) from limestone (CaCO3) commonly known as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2014 · 9,813 accessesView PDFCite
