Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy of Au/n-Ti2S/p-Si/Al Schottky-Type Thin Film Heterojunction Solar Cells: Computer Simulation ModelingAli IbrahimThe Au/n-Ti2S/p-Si/Al heterojunction with intrinsic thin-layer solar cells were analyzed by AFORS-HET software program. Thickness of the emitter intrinsic layer and the interface state density of such cells were studied. In which, the intrinsic layer inserted between the Ti2S and crystalline p-type silicon substrate, reduce the interface state density. The thinner intrinsic layer is better than thicker one, when the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 3 Jun 2015 · 6,282 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDEVELOPMENT OF A FUZZY-SIMULATION MODEL OF SCHEDULING ROBOTIC FLEXIBLE ASSEMBLY CELLSKhalid Abd, Kazem Abhary, Romeo MarianDue to the complexity of scheduling flexible manufacturing systems, the generation of production schedules requires an intelligent technique. Many artificial intelligence techniques such as fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms and neural networks have been successfully applied to the scheduling of advanced manufacturing systems. One such system is Robotic Flexible Assembly Cells (RFACs). Few studies have addressed the problem of scheduling RFACs. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 25 Nov 2013 · 6,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMODELING AND SIMULATION OF FUZZY BASED AUTOMATIC INSULIN DELIVERY SYSTEMSunithaKarnam Anantha, Senthil Kumar Natarajan, Subransu Sekar DashThe aim is to design a complete online, automatic, intelligent and independent insulin delivery system. The proposed system calculates the amount of insulin by formulation based upon two linguistic factors i.e. weight and blood glucose levels. These factors have been used to develop a rule based fuzzy system in LabVIEW. The fuzziness brings a better regulation into the regime than … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,623 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSimulation of Vegetative Induced Deformation in an Unsaturated SoilNazri Bn Ali, Mu’azu Mohammed AbdullahiProblem statement: Tree root water-uptake increases soil strength by increasing the soil matric suction due to pore pressure dissipation in a soil mass, inducing increases in vertical total stress or water extraction, the effective stress to which the soil strata is subjected to may also increase. This causes volume change which might be detrimental to geotechnical structures and shallow foundation. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Computer Simulation Model for Automated Quantification of Luteinizing Hormone SecretionAyman Al-Nsour, Hamza A. Ali, Buthynna Al-Dulaimi, Wisam H. Al-SewadiProblem statement: An automated software package is developed for quantifying Luteinizing Hormone (LH) release from pituitary gonadotropes in response to short pulses of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH). Approach: These computer programs were designed to accommodate the release mechanism that consists of three stages, namely; (1) Production of different concentrations of effectors (such as receptor-hormone binds, G protein interactions, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate IP3), … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSimulation of Parallel Logical Operations with Biomolecular ComputingMahnaz Kadkhoda, Ali A. PouyanBiomolecular computing is the computational method that uses the potential of DNA as a parallel computing device. DNA computing can be used to solve NP-complete problems. An appropriate application of DNA computation is large-scale evaluation of parallel computation models such as Boolean Circuits. In this study, we present a molecular-based algorithm for evaluation of Nand-based Boolean Circuits.
