Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReal Time Implementation of NARMA-L2 Control of a Single Link ManipulatorS.S. Mokri, H. Husain, W. Martono, A. ShafieNonlinearities and parametric uncertainties are unavoidable problems faced in controlling robot manipulator. A single link manipulator driven by a permanent magnet brushed dc motor is a nonlinear dynamics due to effects of gravitational force, mass of the payload, posture of the manipulator and viscous friction coefficient. Furthermore, uncertainties arise because of changes of the rotor resistance with temperature and random … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInput-Output Feedback Linearization Cascade Controller Using Genetic Algorithm for Rotary Inverted Pendulum SystemIraj Hassanzadeh, Saleh Mobayen, Abbas HarifiThe Rotary Inverted Pendulum (RIP) system is a significant classical problem of control engineering which has been investigated in the past decades. This study presents an optimum Input- Output Feedback Linearization (IOFL) cascade controller utilized Genetic Algorithm (GA). Due to the non-minimum phase behavior of the system, IOFL controller leads to unstable internal dynamics. Therefore a cascade structure is proposed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Modelling of an Industrial Smelter Furnace and Converter Off-gas SystemHelen Shang, Megan Dillabough, Phillip Nelson, Bryan SaltIn smelters, metal ores or concentrates are smelted to reduce a metal oxide to a metal through a series of reactions and processes. In a smelting process, a large amount of off-gas emissions are often generated, which can cause serious environmental and plant hygiene problems if not properly treated. Off-gas systems extract and treat the off-gas emissions, and ensure that … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 7,158 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Stability of a Certain Class of Linear Time-Varying SystemsM. De la SenThis study firstly considers the exponential stability of unforced linear systems of slowly time-varying dynamics. Possible switchings of the system structure to unstable dynamics during certain finite time intervals are admitted. The maintenance of global exponential stability does not necessarily require at most a finite number of switchings in the dynamics while infinitely many switches can also lead to stability. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 6,937 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamical Model for Determining Human Susceptibility to Dengue FeverSurapol Naowarat, Thanon Korkiatsakul, I. Ming TangProblem statement: Mathematical models are a useful tool for understanding and describing the transmission of diseases such as dengue fever, one of the most prevalently emerging diseases common to tropical and subtropical areas throughout South East Asia. By taking into account human susceptibility to disease, the dynamics of a dengue disease model is proposed. Approach: Using standard methods for analyzing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2011 · 7,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Buoyancy Force in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of a Two-Dimensional Continuous Ohmic Heating ProcessElzubier A. Salih, Thomas S.Y. Choong, S. Y. Sergie et al.Problem statement: Earlier work on ohmic heating technique focused on viscous food and foods containing solid particles. In this study, the use of ohmic heating on sterilization of guava juice is carried out. Computational fluid dynamics is used to model and simulate the system. Approach: Investigate the buoyancy effect on the CFD simulation of continuous ohmic heating systems of fluid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model to Simulate Tuberculosis Disease Population DynamicsO.K. Koriko, T.T. YusufA mathematical model to depict Tuberculosis disease population dynamics was presented. The model population was compartmentalised as appropriate and the resulting model equations were solved numerically while different instances of the disease transmission were simulated. The graphical profiles of the various sub-populations with time were presented and discussed based on the results from our simulations. Also, the disease-free and endemic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping a Geographic Information System-Based Assessment Model for Sustainable Metropolitan Development: The Case of the Semarang Metropolitan Region, IndonesiaImam Buchori, Agung Sugiri, Sudharto P Hadi et al.Spatial dynamics of metropolitan development are becoming important issues in sustainable development. In developing countries like Indonesia, the growth of metropolitan regions is often followed by problems of unsustainability. Therefore, a framework of assessment for metropolitan development can be useful as an early means of identifying any untoward aspects. This study aims to develop an assessment system that is easily … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 May 2015 · 7,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMembrane Computing as a Modeling Tool for Discrete SystemsRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd. ZinProblem statement: Discrete systems have been modeled by using Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) in which the variation of concentration of an object was modeled as continuous and deterministic manner, contrary to the real behaviors of such systems. Although, this approaches able to generate the general behavior of the system, the specific discrete processes and stochastic behaviors in the system have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 24 Aug 2011 · 6,796 accessesView PDFCite
