Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE ADVERSE EFFECT OF STEEL PARTICLE CONTAMINANTS ON FATIGUE LIFE OF GREASE LUBRICATED BALL BEARINGSA. Stathis, Th. Costopoulos, D. Koulocheris, K. RaptisThe rating life of ball bearings is reduced when hard particle contaminants are present in the lubricant. Usually, this life reduction is taken into account in the calculation of modified rating life by using the contamination factor through a general characterization of the lubrication conditions. However, the impact of contaminant’s variables such as size, hardness and concentration level has to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2014 · 6,995 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Design Framework for End-of-Life Vehicles Recovery: Optimization of Disassembly Sequence Using Genetic AlgorithmsT. F. Go, D. A. Wahab, M.N. Ab. Rahman, R. RamliProblem statement: It is expected that over the next few years type approval legislation and public awareness will force vehicle manufacturers to identify recovery methods during the design process in order to achieve reuse and recycling targets. Current vehicle design in Malaysia does not sufficiently aid the economic recovery of parts and materials to reach these targets. Approach: This study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,325 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOn The Estimation of Survival Function and Parameter Exponential Life Time DistributionHadeel Salim Al-Kutubi, Noor Akma IbrahimProblem statement: The study and research of survival or reliability or life time belong to the same area of study but they may belong to a different area of application. In survival analysis one can use several life time distribution, exponential distribution with mean life time θ is one of them. To estimate this parameter and survival function we must … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,068 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBin Bay: An Optimized Smart Waste Disposal System for a Sustainable Urban Life using LSTM and Fog ComputingShiny Duela, Dioline Sara, PrabavathiTo create green and smart cities, a smart and planned WasteManagement System (WMS) is a vital requirement. With the increase in the urbanpopulation and service delivery difficulties, smart cities are integratingtechnologies such as smart waste bins and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)tags into their day-to-day operations to make solid waste management andcontrol more effective.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLife Extension by Anti-Aging Drugs: Hormetic Explanation?A.M. VaisermanA number of chemicals including antioxidants, vitamins and hormones are widely advertised as anti-aging drugs (geroprotectors). It is usually believed that life-extending capacity of geroprotectors may be attributed to their specific anti-aging mechanisms, even without solid scientific evidence. The analysis of the survival data gathered by both anti-aging and hormetic interventions demonstrates that many essential similarities exist between them. The … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,166 accessesView PDFCite
