Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradation of Power Generation Performance due to Effects of Various Ice Shapes and Accretions on Wind Turbine BladesAditya Bagade, Changki Mo, Abdelhamid MazherIn today’s world, green energy has become a key initiative as an alternative energy resource. Wind turbines are widely used to harvest wind energy in seasonal and cold environments. Although efficient, cold weather conditions negatively affects wind turbine operations due to ice formation. Damage from icing is seen on blade-tips when super-cooled water droplets that form in colder environments rapidly … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Process of Porous Tantalum Implants Osseous Integration a ReviewChristos G. Paganias, George A. Tsakotos, Stephanos D. Koutsostathis, George A. MacherasPorous tantalum is a biomaterial that was recently introduced in orthopaedics in order to overcome problems of the past related to implant loosening. Its use has led to very good results, especially in difficult cases where severe bone defect is present, as it is found to have osteoconductive and possibly, osteoinductive properties. So, it is of great interest to shed … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2015 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE USAGE OF ANIMAL AND VEGETABLE ORIGIN RAW MATERIALS COMBINATORICS IN MEAT PRODUCTS OF &#34HALAL&#34 CATEGORY DEVELOPMENTIvan F. Gorlov, Oksana B. Gelunova, Tatiana M. Giro, Ekaterina P. MirzayanovaIntegrated researches aimed to develop technologies and recipes for meat products of &#34Halal&#34 category using seed fat and Milk Protein-Carbohydrate Concentrate (MPCC) represent a new generation of scientific and practical interest. In this connection, the authors propose technologies and recipes for meat products of &#34Halal&#34 category, designed on the basis of rational combinatorics of animal and vegetable origin raw materials, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 15 Oct 2014 · 7,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTOCHASTIC REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT OF A STANDBY SYSTEMMohammed A. HajeehMechanical systems deteriorate over time and do not perform according to their intended functions and eventually fail due to the failure of one or more their components or units. Failed components are either repaired or replaced depending of several factors such as cost, criticality, or reliability. Repair is perfect, minimal, or imperfect. This study assesses the performance of a standby … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 9 Oct 2014 · 6,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Machine Vision Inspection on Printed Circuit Boards Flux DefectsAng TeohOng, Zulkifilie Bin Ibrahim, Suzaimah RamliThe new visual inspection systems techniques using real time machine vision replace the human visual manual inspection on PCB flux defects, which brings harmful effects on the board which may come in the form of corrosion and can cause harm to the assembly. In short, it brings improvement in Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) production quality, principally concerning the acceptance or … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simple Algorithm to Assess the Speed Stability of Induction GeneratorsAlexandre de Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira MotaProblem statement: The speed stability if Induction Generators (IG) can be defined as its ability to remain connected to the electric network, operating at a mechanical speed close to the speed associated to the actual system frequency, after being subjected to a perturbation. This IG behavior is normally studied using dynamical methods that are determined through time-consuming simulations and are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,553 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Affecting the Oxygenation Capacity of Disc Aerators in an Oxidation Ditch SystemAbdel Ghaly, Skai EdwardsProblem statement: The use of aerobic biological methods for the treatment of livestock wastes has resulted in a proliferation of mechanical aeration devices to accomplish the desired treatment. The oxidation ditch system with disc aerators is among the aerobic systems that have been used to treat livestock waste. The main objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 7,536 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMobile Element Scheduling for Efficient Data Collection in Wireless Sensor Networks: A SurveyK. Indra Gandhi, P. NarayanasamyProblem statement: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has become a very interesting field of research and has been deployed for various applications. The data sensed by the sensors need to be transmitted over to a Base Station (BS) where the data processing is done. Approach: The existing systems generally employ Multi-hop routing for data aggregation at the BS, where several nodes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2011 · 7,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccurate Wavelet Neural Network for Efficient Controlling of an Active Magnetic Bearing SystemYoussef Harkouss, Souhad Mcheik, Roger AchkarProblem statement: The synthesis of a command by the neural network has an excellent advantage over the classical one such as PID. This study presented a fast and accurate Wavelet Neural Network (WNN) approach for efficient controlling of an Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) system. Approach: The proposed approach combined neural network with the wavelet theory. Wavelet theory may be exploited … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 9 Nov 2010 · 15,569 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuffering Capacity of Fast-Growing Species and Curing Time of UF Resin Modified With Zinc Borate and Monoammonium PhosphateIzran Kamal, Koh Mok Poh, Tan Yu Eng et al.Problem statement: Occupying a suitable hot pressing time for particleboard fabrication seems very tricky for manufacturers of the wood-based panel. Longer or shorter pressing times can affect physical and mechanical properties of the produced particleboards and that is why extra care should be given on this matter. Longer pressing time can cause resin in a particleboard to over-cure whereas shorter … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
