Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison Between the New and the Old Versions of Jordan Seismic CodeM.A. MusmarThe study comes as a vital step to shed120 light upon the purport of the recently published version of Jordan Seismic code (JSC), and how the drawbacks of the old version are surpassed. The new JSC code oversteps the old provisions, in that input parameters now have pronounced and significant physical meanings. The study concludes that the conversion from service … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Quality Control and Everyone’s Participation in Japan to Prevent Pollution During Last Five DecadesMohammed Matouq, Nasir Kloub, Kazue InoueEconomic Growth in Japan after World War II was very remarkable and products from its manufacturing industry were widely accepted in the world market after productivity and quality of them were tremendously improved. On the other hand, Japan soon found itself in severe environmental deterioration, due to not being paid any attention to environment. However, that pollution from industry was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,998 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Detection and Classification Algorithm for Power Quality Disturbances using WaveletsC. Sharmeela, M. R. Mohan, G. Uma, J. BaskaranThis study presents a novel method to detect and classify power quality disturbances using wavelets. The proposed algorithm uses different wavelets each for a particular class of disturbance. The method uses wavelet filter banks in an effective way and does multiple filtering to detect the disturbances. A qualitative comparison of results shows the advantages and drawbacks of each wavelet when … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,632 accessesView PDFCite
