Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStudy on Optical Constants and Refractive Index Dispersion of Neutral red Doped Polymer FilmHussain A. BadranProblem statement: The some optical constants polymer thin film with red dye 3-amino-7-dimethylamino-2-methyl phenazine (NR) as the guest material and Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as the host material were prepared by adulteration and spin-coating methods. Approach: The values of some important parameters (refractive index n, extinction coefficient K and dielectric constant ε∞) of polymer thin film are determined from these spectra. Results: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2011 · 8,923 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHarmonics Phase Shifter for a Three-Phase System with Voltage Control by Integral-Cycle Triggering Mode of ThyristorsI. Badran, A.L. Mahmood, M.T. LazimIn integral-cycle triggering mode of voltage control, subharmonic as well as higher order harmonic components are generated in the load voltage waveforms of a three-phase system. These harmonic components are found to be unbalanced in phase displacement. The correction of the unbalanced phase displacement angles of a particular subharmonic or higher order harmonic for this type of triggering is investigated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,112 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Effect of Shot Peening and Polishing on the Pitting Corrosion Resistance of Stainless SteelOmar Badran, Naser Kloub, Musa Musa Al-TalAn experimental work was performed to study one of the major problems encountered in industry (i.e., pitting corrosion), which cost the industrial world billions of dollars every year. Stainless Steel 304L sheets were used in the present study, the main reason for using stainless steel is their corrosion resistance and it is the most widely used in process industries, but … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,330 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesShort-Term and Medium-Term Load Forecasting for Jordan's Power SystemI. Badran, H. El-Zayyat, G. HalasaSeveral electric power companies are now forecasting electric loads based on conventional methods. However, since the relationship between loads and factors influencing these loads is nonlinear, it is difficult to identify its nonlinearity by using conventional methods. Most of papers deal with 24-h-ahead load forecasting or next day peak load forecasting. These methods forecast the demand power by using forecasted … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,083 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLightning Over-Voltages on Amman-Aqaba 400 KV LineGhassan Halasa, Ibrahim Badran, Hafez El-ZayyatAn attempt is made to evaluate the lightning over-voltage failure rate for Amman- Aqaba 400kV transmission line by studying the geographical and temporal characteristics of lightning causing the line forced outages. The line was divided into three sections based on weather and pollution conditions. It was found that the line failure rate due to lightning over-voltages is low compared to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,640 accessesView PDF Cite
