Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleUltrasonic Dental Scaler Performance Assessment with an Innovative CavitometerAntonio Henrique Alves Pereira, Camila Tirapelli, Lucimar Antonio RodolphoProblem statement: There is no specific instrument to test ultrasonic dental scalers used in dentistry. Approach: The aim of this research was to develop and test an innovative cavitometer for quantitative and automatic performance assessments of Ultrasonic Dental Scalers (UDS) through the acoustic emission produced by cavitation induced by the tip of the UDS ultrasonic transducer when immersed in aqueous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePerformance Assessment of CPU Scheduling Algorithms: A Scenario-Based Approach with FCFS, RR, and SJFOlaa Hajjar, Escelle Mekhallalati, Nada Annwty et al.This study presents an extensive examination of CPU scheduling algorithms, focusing on the First-Come, First-Served (FCFS), Round-Robin (RR), and Shortest-Job-First (SJF) strategies through a carefully designed scenario-based approach. By deploying a Java-based simulation to dynamically generate random process arrival and burst times, this study simulates a variety of operational conditions to test these scheduling algorithms’ adaptability and performance in environments … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 9 · 16 Jun 2024 · 9,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePerformance Assessment and Monitoring of a Permeable Reactive Barrier for the Remediation of a Contaminated SiteValerio Zolla, Rajandrea Sethi, Antonio Di MolfettaThe present study illustrates the long-term monitoring plan carried out in order to investigate the performance of a zero-valent iron permeable reactive barrier (PRB) at a chlorinated solvents’ site. The cleanup intervention has been undertaken at an industrial landfill located near the city of Turin (Italy) and represents the first full-scale application of this technology in Italy. The monitoring plan … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePerformance Assessment of Solar Chimneys: Part 2 – Impacts of Slenderness Value and Collector Slope on Power OutputErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceIn the previous part, impacts of chimney height thus pressure difference on the power output of solar chimneys have been numerically evaluated. Within the scope of this research, slenderness and slope of collector are analysed in terms of their potential influence on average velocity of air at the chimney inlet. The analyses are based on a commercial and reliable CFD … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Jul 2019 · 6,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePerformance Assessment of Solar Chimneys: Part I – Impact of Chimney Height on Power OutputErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceSolar chimney is a truly sustainable and green energy technology, which is a potential alternative to carbon-based energy economy. The working principle of solar chimneys is based on the buoyant nature of air to turn a turbine that produces electrical power. Solar chimneys are highly in the centre of interest among all solar energy applications since they enable both day … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2019 · 8,195 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThermal Performance Assessment for Laminar Forced Convection with Downstream Reformed-V and Reformed-Double-V GeneratorsWithada Jedsadaratanachai, Amnart BoonloiThermal assessments for laminar flow in an isothermal wall square channel over downstream Reformed-V (RV) and Reformed-Double-V (RDV) generators inserted diagonally are presented numerically in three dimensional. The RV and RDV are designed to comfort for forming and installing in the heat exchanger channel. The effect of RV and RDV height is investigated in terms of blockage ratio, b/H, BR … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 1 Jan 2015 · 6,747 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePerformance Appraisal-Management by Objective and Assessment CentreKai-Ping Huang, Chien-Jung Huang, Kuo-Hsiung Chen, Jui-Mei YienProblem statement: Two methods for performance appraisal that are discussed in this study and they are Management By Objective (MBO) and Assessment Centre techniques. Employees are appraised for several reasons, the most important of which is to realize the best use of human resources and to plan for future needs; reward and punishment are secondary. Assessment Centre evaluation or appraisal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 8,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Gate to Gate Assessment of Environmental Performance for Production of Crude Palm Kernel Oil Using Life Cycle Assessment ApproachS. Vijaya, A. N. Ma, Y. M. ChooProblem statement: The oil palm industry is an export orientated industry which heavily relies on the world market. In 2007 alone the total export earnings reached RM 45.1 billion. It is essential that the oil palm industry is ready to meet the higher expectation of its overseas customers on the environmental performance of the industry. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,225 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModelling and Assessment of Effect of Operation Parameters on Gas Turbine Power Plant Performance using First and Second Laws of ThermodynamicsSunday Olayinka Oyedepo, Richard Olayiwola Fagbenle, Samuel Sunday AdefilaIn this study, modelling of gas turbine engine performance is carried out using thermodynamics relations. The model reveals that the influence of operation parameters such as compression ratio, turbine inlet temperature and ambient temperature has significant effect on the performance of gas turbine engine. Energy and exergy analyses were conducted to evaluate the performance of the selected power plant and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 3 May 2017 · 7,920 accessesView PDFCite
