Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReliability Equivalence Factors of a Parallel System Subject to Weibull Distribution Using Multivariate FGM CopulaNeama Salah Youssef TemrazThis paper analyze a parallel system consisted of n dependent components with lifetimes follow Weibull distribution. FGM Copula in multivariate case is used to generate the reliability function of the original system. Reduction method is introduced to improve system reliability. Other methods of hot, cold and warm duplication are established to improve system reliability. An application using real time data … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2018 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINVESTIGATIONS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF VAPOUR COMPRESSION SYSTEM RETROFITTED WITH ZEOTROPIC REFRIGERANT R404AA. Lovelin Jerald, D. SenthilKumaranThe environmental impacts like global warming and ozone depletion has become a challenge to the refrigeration and air conditioning industry. Chloro Fluoro Carbons (CFCs) and Hydro Flouro Carbons (HCFCs) are referred to as an Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) because once these gases are released into the environment and reach the stratosphere, depletes the ozone layer. This research paper aims to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA REVIEW ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF INDONESIAN SIGN LANGUAGE RECOGNITION SYSTEMSutarman, Mazlina Abdul Majid, Jasni Mohamad ZainSign language is mainly employed by hearing-impaired people to communicate with each other. However, communication with normal people is a major handicap for them since normal people do not understand their sign language. Sign language recognition is needed for realizing a human oriented interactive system that can perform an interaction like normal communication. Sign language recognition basically uses two approaches: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 27 Sep 2013 · 8,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of Eco friendly Refrigerants Usage in Air-ConditionerC. Chinnaraj, R. Vijayan, P. GovindarajanProblem statement: There are two types of global warming contributions through refrigeration and air conditioning systems. The first one is the Direct Global Warming Potential (DGWP) due to the emission of refrigerants and their interaction with heat radiation. The second one is the Indirect Global Warming Potential (IDGWP) due to the emission of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) by consuming the energy … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 27 Dec 2011 · 8,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of organic wax on bitumen characteristicsArafat Suleiman Yero, Mohd Rosli HaininStatement problem: The study investigated effect of organic wax Sasobit wax (S) on the characteristics of bitumen 80/100-penetration grade. The consistency of bitumen is measure of its susceptibility to temperature change and resistance to flow which affects ability and resistance to deformation of the mixture. Approach: This study reviewed the bitumen modification process in relation to Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 8,021 accessesView PDFCite
