Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Prototype Automated Sorting System for Plastic RecyclingD. A. Wahab, A. Hussain, E. Scavino et al.Automated sorting for plastic recyclables has been seen as the way forward in the plastic recycling industry. Automated sorting provides significant improvements in terms of efficiency and consistency in the sorting process. In the case of macro sorting, which is the most common type of automated sorting, efficiency is determined by the mechanical details of the material handling system as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 8,824 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Lignite and Firewood Co-combustion in a Furnace for Tobacco Curing ApplicationNakorn Tippayawong, Chutchawan Tantakitti, Satis ThavornunCo-combustion of lignite and firewood was investigated for an application in tobacco curing industry in Northern Thailand. Extensive experiments have been carried out in a newly developed furnace suitable for small curing unit, in place of locally made furnace. The aim of this investigation is to evaluate the performance of the combustion chamber in the required thermal output range for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Low Cost Design Solution - DSP Based Active Power Factor Corrector for SMPS/ UPS( Single Phase)Samia Pillai Pitchai, B. UmamaheswariAs per international agency regulation (IEC 1000-3-2/EN 61000-3-2) and market expectation, it is important to reduce current harmonics in the AC line current drawn by SMPS/ UPS connected to AC Mains as source and also it is desired by the user to deliver maximum power output by achieving unity power factor. To achieve the above objectives in SMPS/ UPS, APFC … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,896 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Regularization in a Neural Network Model to Estimate Lines of Code Using Function PointsK. K. Aggarwal, Yogesh Singh, Pravin Chandra, Manimala PuriIt is a well known fact that at the beginning of any project, the software industry needs to know, how much will it cost to develop and what would be the time required ? . This paper examines the potential of using a neural network model for estimating the lines of code, once the functional requirements are known. Using the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 30,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification, Characterization and Quantification of Elastomeric/Plastomeric Waste for Sustainable Waste MinimizationKajal Yadav, Sangita, A. ChandraThe present study focuses on the importance of characterization of waste/post consumer polymers. In recent years sophisticated instrumental techniques played an important role in identification and characterization of polymers. Advances in computer techniques have been combined with analytical instruments to give analytical speed, resolution and minimal sample requirements unimagined a few years ago. The present study deals with the development … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation and Visualization of Safing SensorKhaled M. Furati, Hattan Tawfiq, Abul Hasan SiddiqiNumerical simulations of Maxwell’s equations have attracted attention of several mathematicians and engineers in the recent past. Such solutions are required for proper understanding of industrial problems. In this paper we focus our attention on numerical simulation of safing sensor required by a car industry. Maxwell’s equation system models this industrial problem. We discuss numerical simulation by the fastful developed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 6,922 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Comparison between Structural Element of Building Systems in MalaysiaM. R. Abdul Kadir, W. P. Lee, M. S. Jaafar et al.The Industrialized Building System (IBS) was introduced in Malaysia in 1966, but it failed to establish itself on a continuous basis though there has been a sustained large market for residential projects even since. One of the reasons behind this shortcoming is the lack of scientific data on labor productivity that could convince policy maker. Hence, the objective of this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
