Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTransversely Cracked Beam's Finite Elements with a Hinged EndM. Skrinar, T. PliberšekTwo new beam finite-elements to be used for the transverse displacement analysis of slender beams with transverse cracks are presented where the derivations are based on a simplified computational model. The beam stiffness matrixes are presented in symbolic forms for beams with a single transverse crack and a hinge at one of the nodes. Since in the derivations the corresponding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Optimization of Physics Simulations Through Genetic AlgorithmsOksana Shadura, Federico Carminati, Anatoliy PetrenkoThe GeantV R&D approach is revisiting the standard particle transport simulation approach to be able to benefit from “Single Instruction, Multiple Data” (SIMD) computational architectures or extremely parallel systems like coprocessors and GPUs. The goal of this work is to develop a mechanism for optimizing the programs used for High-Energy Physics (HEP) particle transport simulations using a “black-box” optimization approach. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2019 · 8,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Performance of Double Laminated Glass Panels with EVA and PVB Interlayer in Four-Point Bending TestsTomáš Hána, Martina Eliášová, Zdeněk SokolMany examples of glass loadbearing structures such as handrails, panes, beams and columns can be found in modern architecture. Most of these elements are made of laminated glass panels. There is a general lack of knowledge about the transfer of shear forces between the glass plies in perpendicularly-loaded laminated panels. This transfer depends significantly on the stiffness of the polymeric … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 14 Aug 2018 · 13,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE IMPROVEMENT OF THE COMPUTATIONAL PERFORMANCE OF THE ZONAL MODEL POMA USING PARALLEL TECHNIQUESYao Yu, Ahmed Cherif Megri, Kenneth M. Flurchick, Dukka Bahadur K.C.The zonal modeling approach is a new simplified computational method used to predict temperature distribution, energy in multi-zone building and indoor airflow thermal behaviors of building. Although this approach is known to use less computer resource than CFD models, the computational time is still an issue especially when buildings are characterized by complicated geometry and indoor layout of furnishings. Therefore, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2014 · 7,731 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NOVEL PRESSURIZED ZONAL MODEL USING THE MOMENTUM EQUATIONYao Yu, Ahmed Cherif MegriZonal models combine the simplicity of single and multi-zone models with the comprehensiveness of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and thus become a better substitute to predict detailed thermal and airflow behaviors in building. Based on a geometric partitioning of a room into a number of subzones, these models give more accurate and detailed results than the single or multi-zone … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2014 · 8,570 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 abstractDetection of Occluded Face Image using Mean Based Weight Matrix and Support Vector MachineG. Nirmala Priya, R. S.D. Wahida BanuProblem statement: Face occlusion is a very challenging problem in face recognition. The performance of face recognition system decreases drastically due to the presence of partial occlusion on the face. Extracting discriminative features to achieve accurate detection versus computational overhead in extracting the features, which affects the classification speed, would be a sustained problem. The objective of this study is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 5 Jul 2012 · 7,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of Airflow around Vehicle A-pillar Region and Windnoise Generation PredictionM. H. Shojaefard, K. Goudarzi, H. FotouhiFlow separation and reattachment around the vehicle A-pillar region dictates strong pressure fluctuations on the side window surfaces and can also lead to generate aerodynamic noise. The objective of this work is to investigate qualitative flow visualization of airflow behaviour around vehicle A-pillar and its potential to generate windnoise in this region. By means of Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) under … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,335 accessesView PDFCite
