Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHand Anthropometric Data for Saudi Arabia Engineering Students of Aged 20-26 Years at King Khalid UniversityMohamed A.A. MansourAnthropometric data plays a significant role in the effective and accurate design of various devices and machines. The inclusion of anthropometric data helps ensure that devices or machines are safe, user-friendly and highly productive and efficient. In this study, 56 hand dimensions based on 266 Saudi Arabian inter-university adult males aged 20-26 years are described in terms of statistics, bivariate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,691 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPossibility and Evidence-Based Reliability Analysis and Design OptimizationHong-Zhong Huang, Liping He, Yu Liu et al.Engineering design under uncertainty has gained considerable attention in recent years. A great multitude of new design optimization methodologies and reliability analysis approaches are put forth with the aim of accommodating various uncertainties. Uncertainties in practical engineering applications are commonly classified into two categories, i.e., aleatory uncertainty and epistemic uncertainty. Aleatory uncertainty arises because of unpredictable variation in the performance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 7,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNecessity of Tutor Training in Architecture Education Using Rasch Measurement ModelBadiossadatHassanpour, Nangkula Utaberta, Azami ZaharimThis is an unwritten norm that says learning can take place in the job. But learning in tutors’ position in the meaning of gaining experience is good but in case of try and error would be crucial. On the other hand there is a belief among practitioners that they assume that who has some experience in architecture is fully equipped … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 12 Sep 2012 · 6,730 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplying Software Engineering Methodology for Designing Biomedical Software Devoted To Electronic InstrumentationGilsa Aparecida de Lima Machado, Patricia Mara Danella Zacaro, Alderico Rodrigues de Paula Junior, Marcelo Lopes de Oliveira e SouzaProblem statement: Significant effort goes into the development of biomedical software, which is integrated with computers/processors, sensors and electronic instrumentation devoted to a specific application. However, the scientific work on electronic instrumentation controlled by biomedical software has not emphasized software development, instead focusing mainly on electronics engineering. The development team is rarely composed of Software Engineering (SE) experts. Usually, a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 23 Aug 2012 · 6,971 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesting and Performance Evaluation of Tractor Mounted Hydraulic Elevator for Mango OrchardKishor P. Kolhe, Bhaskhar B. JadhavProblem statement: The harvesting and pruning of horticultural crops is quite difficult due to their tallness. There are small hand tools available for harvesting and pruning. But these tools of harvesting and pruning are restricted due tree height, unavailability of trained labours for climbing and cost of operation etc. The mechanized machines are available; these are heavy and costly and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2011 · 8,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsability Requirements of Formal Verification Tools: A SurveyRozilawati Razali, Paul GarrattProblem statement: Formal notations employ mathematical symbols and interpretation to illustrate system elements. The formality imposed by the notations allows the accuracy and consistency of a system model to be confirmed by verification tools. Formal notations on the other hand are difficult to understand and use by most users. As supporting instruments, verification tools are expected to be as usable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 10 Aug 2010 · 7,185 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Simulator: An Educational Tool for Computer ArchitectureMihyar HessonThe great advancement in computer architecture and cache memory design and technology had a considerable influence on the way computer architecture was taught in universities. This requires students to be able to visualize the detailed activities that take place within a computer processor and its interaction with memory system. Computer simulators could effectively be used to enhance the understanding and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUsability Validation of an Ergonomic Inward Directional Screwdriver for Enhanced Musculoskeletal ComfortPoh Kiat Ng, Bing Sheng Choong, Kian Siong JeePrevious studies suggested that the use of inward torque direction in hand-related manual activities not only increases the total normal force and torque capacity but also reduces grip force. This means lesser effort is required to perform the task, which prevents overexertion and hand injuries. Manual screwdrivers are the most common hand tools used in the industry and daily life. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 27 Oct 2016 · 7,446 accessesView PDFCite
