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 abstractA Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag Mitigation in a Refinery with Induction Motors LoadsTarek I. El-Shennawy, Abdel-Mon’em Moussa, Mahmoud A. El-Gammal, Amr Y. Abou-GhazalaProblem statement: ANRPC is a refinery based in Alexandria, Egypt. The plant was subjected to several shutdowns due to tripping of large induction motors, either by under voltage or by over current relays, sometimes by the mechanical protection. The main cause for such unplanned shutdowns was voltage sags. The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) has recently been introduced to protect the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,922 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAC Analysis of PEO10LiCF3SO3 Polymeric Material for Memory Storage ApplicationMahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: Intelligent systems that need to accurately represent human brain requires analogue devices such as a neural switch that processes decision signals and can actually remember the made decision. Polymeric material such as PEO10LiCF3SO3, which previously used in high energy, long life storage batteries, is used here to implement the principle of storage with the required analogue memory. Approach: … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive Content-Sensitive Data Retrieval in Sensor NetworksBo Yang, Manohar MareboyanaProblem statement: For a sensor network comprising autonomous and self-organizing data sources, efficient similarity-based search for semantic-rich resources (such as video data) has been considered as a challenging task due to the lack of infrastructures and the multiple limitations (such as band-width, storage and energy). While the past research discussed much on routing protocols for sensor networks, few works have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,845 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Comparison of Thermal Stratification due Natural Convection in Densified LOX, LN2 TanksSeyed Ali Jazayeri, Ehsan Molla Hasanzadeh KhoeiThe growth of natural circulation and thermal stratification inside LOX, LN2 storage tanks due to heat transfer from surroundings is investigated using a non-equilibrium, two-domain, mathematical model. The two-dimensional model is considered for the liquid domain in two cases and a lumped, thermodynamic model is utilized for vapor domain. The vapor is assumed to behave like an ideal gas. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Performance of the Milling Process Of Malaysian Palm Oil Using The Life Cycle Assessment ApproachVijaya Subramaniam, Ma An Ngan, Choo Yuen May, Nik Meriam Nik SulaimanMalaysia is currently the world leader in the production and export of palm oil. This study has a gate to gate system boundary. The inventory data collection starts at the oil palm fresh fruit bunch hoppers when the fresh fruit bunch is received at the mill up till the production of the crude palm oil in the storage tanks at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Applied Research Program on Water Desalination with Renewable EnergiesSergio M. Alcocer, Gerardo HiriartThe use of renewable energy for desalination might be quite different in many places of the world. In Mexico, specifically in Baja California, there is an abundance of "traditional" renewable resources like sun and wind but also some others like hot springs at the coast, tidal currents and tidal amplitudes of over six meters in the upper part of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,203 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Performance of a Solar Heat Storage Accumulator Used For Greenhouses ConditioningMejdi Hazami, Sami Kooli, Meriam Lazaar et al.The use of solar energy for greenhouse heating has gained an increasing acceptance during the last years. Active solar systems applied to greenhouses can supply a significant part of the heating requirements. However, there are some problems related to the cost of the heat collection unit and the heat storage methods. In this context several techniques were born. The most … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContribution of Advective and Non-advective Heat Fluxes to the Heat Budget of a Shallow LagoonRodríguez-Rodríguez MiguelThe heat budget in a shallow lagoon has been established from field measurements at a bihourly scale. Information on the main advective and non-advective heat fluxes were collected during year 2003 at Nueva lagoon (Almería, Southern Spain). Heat storage data was obtained from a thermistor chain located in the deepest part of the lagoon and meteorological information was acquired using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,491 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhotovoltaic Technology of Electricity Generation for Desert CampingShafiqur Rehman, Ali A. Shash, Omar S. Baghabra Al-AmoudiThis study presents a case study on the utilization of global solar radiation data on horizontal surface to perform economical feasibility of using Photovoltaic (PV) panels with battery backup to meet a small load for a camping site in Saudi Arabia. The analysis considers three scenarios with daily average energy demands of: (i) full load, (ii) 75% load and (iii) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,922 accessesView PDFCite
