Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastic Prognostic Paradigm for Petrochemical Pipelines Subject to FatigueAbdo Abou Jaoude, Khaled El-TawilThe most important aim for industrialists is the prevention and the evaluation of their products state since non-predicted failure is very expensive in some cases. This can be done mainly by the evaluation of the &#34Remaining Useful Lifetime&#34 (RUL) by the means of prognostic approaches compensating the inconveniences of classical maintenance strategies. A proposed analytic prognostic methodology based on damage … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 15 Apr 2013 · 7,561 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethodical Tuning of Proportional Plus Integral Controllers for Cascade Control of Separately Excited DC MotorsIbrahim Al-AbbasThe cascade control of DC motors by PI controllers was extensively used in industry. Approximation rules based on plotting the output of the system or on computer simulation were used to determine the parameters of these controllers. This study was done to develop mathematical expressions to calculate the parameters of these controllers. Output time functions of the system and there … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 12 Sep 2012 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvances in Electromyogram Signal Classification to Improve the Quality of Life for the Disabled and Aged PeopleMd. R. Ahsan, Muhammad I. Ibrahimy, Othman O. KhalifaProblem statement: The social demands for the Quality Of Life (QOL) are increasing with the exponentially expanding silver generation. To improve the QOL of the disabled and elderly people, robotic researchers and biomedical engineers have been trying to combine their techniques into the rehabilitation systems. Various biomedical signals (biosignals) acquired from a specialized tissue, organ, or cell system like the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,817 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradation of Power Generation Performance due to Effects of Various Ice Shapes and Accretions on Wind Turbine BladesAditya Bagade, Changki Mo, Abdelhamid MazherIn today’s world, green energy has become a key initiative as an alternative energy resource. Wind turbines are widely used to harvest wind energy in seasonal and cold environments. Although efficient, cold weather conditions negatively affects wind turbine operations due to ice formation. Damage from icing is seen on blade-tips when super-cooled water droplets that form in colder environments rapidly … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,818 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Process of Porous Tantalum Implants Osseous Integration a ReviewChristos G. Paganias, George A. Tsakotos, Stephanos D. Koutsostathis, George A. MacherasPorous tantalum is a biomaterial that was recently introduced in orthopaedics in order to overcome problems of the past related to implant loosening. Its use has led to very good results, especially in difficult cases where severe bone defect is present, as it is found to have osteoconductive and possibly, osteoinductive properties. So, it is of great interest to shed … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2015 · 7,849 accessesView PDFCite
