Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWeighted Centroid Correction Localization in Cellular SystemsRong-Zheng Li, Xin-Long Luo, Jia-Ru LinProblem statement: There is a large demand for wireless Location-Based Service (LBS) and it is provided by many wireless cellular systems. In process of positioning a Mobile Station (MS), the computing speed is as important as the positioning accuracy and the algorithm should also be resistant to environmental influences. Approach: A new positioning method based on Weighted Centroid Correction Localization … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2011 · 8,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImproved Offline Signature Verification Scheme Using Feature Point Extraction MethodDebasish Jena, Banshidhar Majhi, Sanjay K. JenaSignature verification is a technology that can solve security problems in our networked society. A new improved offline signature verification scheme is proposed which is based on selecting 60 feature points from the geometric centre of the signature and compares them with the already trained feature points. The classification of the feature points utilizes statistical parameters like mean and variance. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 6,884 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVery High Resolution Optical Satellites: An Overview of the Most Commonly usedPasquale MaglioneVery High Resolution (VHR) satellite systems are platforms whose sensors acquire high geometric resolution images. Since 1972, when the first satellite was launched (Land sat ERTS), the spatial resolution of the satellite image has increased, making Ground Sample Distance (GSD) reaching 0.30 m at Nadir in panchromatic images. In this paper, after a brief introduction, concepts relative to orbits, types … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2016 · 9,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis on 16-Channels Wavelength Division Multiplexing in Free Space Optical Transmission under Tropical Regions EnvironmentSalasiah Hitam, Siti Norziela Suhaimi, Ahmad Shukri Mohd Noor et al.Problem statement: Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing (WDM) is a promising technique for meeting the growing demand for increased bandwidth and various types of services in the optical access network. For wide area or metropolitan networks, fibers are deployed to provide huge bandwidth. In access networks, the fiber-to-the-home will partially solve the last mile problem. However, some environmentally sensitive area such as housing areas, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2011 · 10,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReliability Assessment of Buckling Strength for Compressed Cylindrical Shells with Interacting Localized Geometric ImperfectionsJalal El Bahaoui, Abdellatif Khamlichi, Larbi El Bakkali, Ali LimamProblem statement: Elastic cylindrical shells are common structures in the fields of civil engineering and engineering mechanics. These thin-walled constructions may undergo buckling when subjected to axial compression. Buckling limits to large extent their strength performance. This phenomenon depends hugely on the initial distributed or localized geometric imperfections that are present on the shell structure. Localized geometric imperfections result in … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2010 · 8,320 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Two Interacting Localized Defects on the Critical Load for Thin Cylindrical Shells Under Axial CompressionAbdellatif Khamlichi, Jalal El Bahaoui, Larbi El Bakkali et al.Problem statement: Many modern structures are made from thin shells. Design of these elements depends to a large extent on their buckling behavior which is hugely affected by the initial geometric imperfections. Approach: For axially compressed isotropic circular cylindrical shells, axisymmetric localized geometric imperfections were found to reduce severely the buckling strength. Among various axisymmetric shapes of localized defects that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelected Malaysian Wood CO2 -Laser Cutting Parameters And Cut QualityNukman Yusoff, Saiful Rizal Ismail, Azuddin Mamat, Aznijar Ahmad-YazidLaser has been used to cut most non-metallic materials very efficiently and successfully because these materials are highly absorptive by the CO2 laser wavelength of 10.6 10.6µm. Laser cutting process has been found to be reliable in loads of applications, with several advantages over other mechanical means in producing successful cut of even thermally sensitive materials such as wood. Various … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,797 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Average Contour of Thais Skulls for Design of ImplantsKhemachit Sena, Surasith PiyasinIn this study, 100 dry skulls of Thais collected at the Srinagarind Hospital in Khon Kaen, Thailand were CT scanned and served for the investigation of the geometric average contour of Thais skulls. Moreover, measurements of distances between landmark points on skulls (cranial anthropometry) were made with this set of skulls for future standardization of skull implants. Thus the main … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,253 accessesView PDFCite
