Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoltage Sag Effects on the Process Continuity of a Refinery with Induction Motors LoadsTarek I. ElShennawy, Mahmoud A. El-Gammal, Amr Y. Abou-GhazalaProblem statement: Process continuity of industrial plants (like a refinery) is subjected to several shutdowns due to voltage sags causing large induction motors to trip, either by undervoltage or by overcurrent relays, sometimes by the mechanical protection. These unplanned shutdowns cost the plant tens of thousands of dollars per shutdown in addition to material damage costs, restart charges and any … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Biomechanical Composite Model to Determine Effective Elastic Moduli of the CNS Gray MatterMehdi Khoshgoftar, Siamak Najarian, Farhad Farmanzad et al.Brain tissue is a heterogeneous material with complicated microstructural features. Models based on microstructure can lead to more accurate and physically realistic predictions of mechanical characteristics of brain tissue. A two-step Mori-Tanaka/Voigt homogenization procedure is implemented into a 3D microstructurally-based multi-phase composite model, composed of randomly-oriented elastic axons, dendrites and neuronal cell bodies surrounded by an elastic matrix. The effects … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTribochemical Performance of Cell-treated Nickel MatrixBing Shi, Thomas B. Kuhn, Hong Liang, Lawrence K. DuffyNickel (Ni) has been studied as a biomaterial for a long time because of the unique mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. In this study, the frictional properties and wettability of Ni under dry and lubricated conditions, including cell treatment, were compared in order to investigate its tribological performance under conditions similar to that in a human body. The wettability was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA 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
Review ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMechatronics Around the World - at a GlanceRachita Sharma, Bhaskar DhimanIncreasing performance standards for complex procedures, which includes business equipment and their steadily growing technical importance, might require new processes to be applied within the procedure of product advent. The important thing concept in the back of our proposed approach is to combine one of a kind stages consisting of design, simulation and physical implementations in product or device advent. … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2021 · 7,806 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordRate Effect on Pullout Behavior of Steel Fibers Embedded in Very-High Strength ConcreteTaher Abu-Lebdeh, Sameer Hamoush, Brian ZornigProblem statement: Rate dependence of the newly developed Very-High-Strength-Concrete (VHSC) composites has received little or no attention so far. Approach: In this research, the bond-slip mechanisms of four types of steel fibers embedded in VHSC matrices were investigated through single-fiber pullout tests with the loading rates and matrix strengths are the primary variables. This study presented the experimental results of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Effect of Time Variation on the Wear Sliding Behavior of CompositesWafaa M. Salih, Sanaa M. Salih, Myada M. SalihComposites materials are widely used in all industries all over the world, replacing many other engineering materials. Reasons for such popularity are many, among such, are their physical and mechanical properties in addition to the simplicity of their manufacturing processes. Machine elements that are made of polymeric materials are usually exposed to different causes of failure such as wear. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 6,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAdaptive Control of Robotic Manipulators with Improvement of the Transient Behavior Through an Intelligent Supervision of the Free-Design Parameters and the Sampling PeriodM. De La Sen, A. Almansa, J.C. SotoAn adaptive control scheme for mechanical manipulators proposed. The control loop consists of a network for learning the robot's inverse dynamics and on-line generating the control signal. Some simulation results were provided to evaluate the design. A supervisor was used to improve the performances of the system during the adaptation transients. The supervisor exerts two supervisory actions. The first one … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,881 accessesView PDFCite
