Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDialectic Form Finding of Structurally Integrated Adaptive StructuresL. Rhode-Barbarigos, V. Charpentier, S. Adriaenssens, O. BaverelStructural engineering, prompted by advances in mechanics and computing as well as design principles such as sustainability and resilience, is evolving towards adaptive structures. Adaptive structures are structures that use active components to change shape and properties in response to their environment and/or to their users' desires. Form-found structures, such as tensegrity and shell structures, can be designed to accommodate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 6 Jul 2015 · 7,850 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract4D Printing: Technology Overview and Smart Materials UtilizedAntreas Kantaros, Theodore Ganetsos, Dimitrios Piromalis4D printing is a cutting-edge technology that allows for the creation of dynamic, self-assembling structures by utilizing cutting edge, newly introduced smart materials. It builds upon traditional 3D printing by adding the dimension of time, allowing printed objects to change shape or behavior over time. This is achieved through the use of smart materials, such as shape memory alloys or … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 13 Mar 2023 · 14,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Model, Selection and Evaluation of the Source Material for the Plant Breeding of Alfalfa Varieties with Increased Seed ProductivityGulmira Toktarovna Ualiyeva, Ualikhan Malgazhdarovich Sagalbekov, Marden Ersainovich Baidalin, Hristina YanchevaThe article presents the results of laboratory and field experiments on the source material of alfalfa in the conditions of Northern Kazakhstan. The purpose of the present research was to study and evaluate the selective value of alfalfa variety populations, as well as to isolate a new source material for creating alfalfa varieties with high seed yields. The experiments were … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2022 · 5,701 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractData Mining in Time Series: Current Study and Future TrendTan Yan, Liudmila Ulanova, Ye Ouyang, Fengyuan XuTime series represent sequences of data points where usually their order is defined by the time when they were recorded. Thus, virtually any sequential recordings can be stored as time series: Stock prices, weather conditions, physical system parameters change, product quality monitoring, etc. This leads to ubiquity of time series in all scientific and practical fields (Esling and Agon, 2012); … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Jan 2015 · 8,756 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLogo Recognition System Using Angular Radial Transform DescriptorsOmar Mohammed Wahdan, Khairuddin Omar, Mohammad Faidzul NasrudinProblem statement: The shape-based logo recognition systems have been developed to automate the logo registration process. The logo recognition operation faces many challenges such as having to recognize logos that might be scaled, rotated, translated and added with noises. Different types of logo’s shapes further add to the complex nature of this problem. Approach: We developed a logo recognition system … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 26 Jul 2011 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
