Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Modeling of Transient Temperatures in a Small-Caliber ProjectileM. Brian Thomas, Leon DozierProblem statement: Future generations of intelligent munitions will use Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) for guidance, fuzing logic and assessment of the battlefield environment. The temperatures fund in a gun system, however, are sufficient to damage some materials used in the fabrication of MEMS. The motivation of this study is to model the dynamic temperature distribution in a typical small-caliber projectile. Approach: … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of the Cuttings Cleaning During the Drilling OperationHussain H. Al-Kayiem, Nadia Mohd Zaki, Muhamad Z. Asyraf, Mahir Elya ElfeelProblem statement: Oil well cleaning is the ability of a drilling fluid to suspend and transport drilled cuttings from the down hole (bit face) to the surface. The cleaning performance was affected by many factors such as fluid viscosity, annular flow velocity, angle of inclination and drill cuttings size and shape and. Approach: Navier-Stoke equations, the continuity equation and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on the Thermal Accumulation and Distribution Inside a Parked Car CabinHussain H. Al-Kayiem, M. Firdaus Bin M. Sidik, Yuganthira R.A.L MunusammyProblem statement: When a vehicle is parked under the direct sun, the accumulated heat is affecting many interiors inside the vehicle cabin, such as the vinyl materials of the dashboard, the leather covers and the electronic components. Also, it represents an uncomfortable operating period for the passengers. The studies under this topic are entitled by the vehicle manufacturers as "Vehicle … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 15,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUpgrading of Bio-Oil into High-Value Hydrocarbons via HydrodeoxygenationMurni M. Ahmad, M. Fitrir R. Nordin, M. Tazli AzizanProblem statement: World energy consumption is forecasted to grow significantly for the foreseeable future with fossil fuel remains the governing energy source. The demand in the need to explore alternative fuel source was further triggered by the overwhelmingly inconsistent cost of gasoline. Bio-oil is an alternative energy source produced from pyrolysis of biomass. However it is undesirable as a ready … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,825 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimenting the Simulation Strategy of Membrane Computing with Gillespie Algorithm by Using Two Biological Case StudiesRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd ZinProblem statement: The evolution rules of membrane computing have been applied in a nondeterministic and maximally parallel way. In order to capture these characteristics, Gillespie’s algorithm has been used as simulation strategy of membrane computing in simulating biological systems. Approach: This study was carried to discuss the simulation strategy of membrane computing with Gillespie algorithm in comparison to the simulation … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Control Technique Applied in Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag MitigationRosli Omar, Nasrudin Abd Rahim, Marizan SulaimanThe Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) was a power electronics device that was able to compensate voltage sags on critical loads dynamically. The DVR consists of VSC, injection transformers, passive filters and energy storage (lead acid battery). By injecting an appropriate voltage, the DVR restores a voltage waveform and ensures constant load voltage. There were so many types of the control … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,141 accessesView PDFCite
