Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOperational Fault Diagnosis in Industrial Hydraulic Systems Through Modeling The Internal Leakage of its ComponentsP. Athanasatos, D. Koulocheris, T. Costopoulos, K. RaptisIn this study, a model of a high pressure hydraulic system was developed using the bond graph method to investigate the effect of the internal leakage of its main components (pump, cylinder and 4/2 way valve) on the operational characteristics of the system under various loads. All the main aspects of the hydraulic circuit (like the internal leakages, the compressibility … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 7 Nov 2013 · 7,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Brief Tour into the History of Gravity: From Emocritus to EinsteinPanagiotis Papaspirou, Xenophon MoussasThe History of Gravity encompasses many different versions of the idea of the Gravitational interaction, which starts already from the Presocratic Atomists, continues to the doctrines of the Platonic and Neoplatonic School and of the Aristotelian School, passes through the works of John Philoponus and John Bouridan and reaches the visions of Johannes Kepler and Galileo Galilei. Then, the major … …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 20 Jun 2013 · 15,084 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Features of Rodoretto Valley Deep-Seated Gravitational Slope DeformationsMaria Gabriella Forno, Andrea Lingua, Stefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaA new, detailed survey of the Rodoretto Valley (Western Alps, Italy) has been conducted resulting in the production of a new morphological and quaternary geological map of the area. The authors used the innovative Solid (True) Ortho-Photo (STOP) technology integrated with navigation sensors (Global Navigation Satellite System-GNSS/Inertial Measurement Unit-IMU). This state-of-the-art procedure has demonstrated several operational advantages during both the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 9 Feb 2013 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Exponential Particle Swarm Optimization K-Means Algorithm for Efficient Image SegmentationK. M. Murugesan, S. PalaniswamiThe introduction of unsupervised learning techniques like K-means inside the domain of Image Processing plays a vital role in Image Segmentation. The hybridization of this Algorithm by using Swarm Intelligent techniques further more improves the efficiency. Various works on hybridization of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) with K-means have been proposed and are found to be efficient in Image Segmentation. However, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 25 Oct 2012 · 7,141 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Baso4 Nanoparticles by Precipitation Method Using Polycarboxylate as a ModifierMohamed El-Shahate Ismaiel Saraya, Inas Mostafa BakrProblem statement: Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) is suitable for many applications because of its whiteness, inertness and high specific gravity. Approach: Nanoparticles of barium sulphate (BaSO4) have been synthesized from barium nitrate by precipitation method in the presence of water soluble organic polycarboxylic polymer as a modifying agent. Transmission electron microscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray powder … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2011 · 15,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPAPR Reduction Using BPSO/PTS and STBC in MIMO OFDM SystemKarima El Mouhib, Ahmed Oquour, Younes Jabrane et al.Problem statement: The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system has been receiving a great attention, as one of solutions for achieving high speed, efficient and high-quality service for the wireless communications. However, the transmitted signal still has high PAPR because of OFDM characteristics. Many methods have been proposed to solve this problem, but the most … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStroke Motion Learning for a Humanoid Robotic Ping-Pong Player Using a Novel Motion Capture SystemC. H. Lai, T.I. James TsayProblem statement: Human ping-pong players determine the stroke trajectory according to their experience before the ball enters their court. However, to enable a humanoid robot to select the appropriate stroke motion based on skills learned from 3D motion, important patterns must be generated to simplify the complex 3D motion. Approach: This study developed an effective strategy for teaching ping-pong skills … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMichelson-Morley Experiment another AssessmentKoorosh ShahdaeiProblem statement: Ehrenfest paradox may be the most basic phenomenon in relativity that has a long history marked by controversy, which still gets different interpretations by researches. This assessment is about another paradox in special relativity for observers in none inertial frame that perceiving Galilean transformation. Approach: This assessment reevaluates Michelson and Morley's famous experiment and Lorentz transformation by comparing … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,007 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
