Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBio-Potential Signal Extraction from Multi-Channel Paper Recorded ChartsAli S.A. Al-MejradProblem Statement: Almost all of the modern biomedical equipments that record the biopotential actions have digital output but the paper chart records are a must. The volume of these records is significant and increasing rapidly. Keeping a bio-signal chart of a patient make it easy for quick assessment but still create problems in the essence of data storage, archiving , … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,106 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Laminated Glass with Stiff Interlayers – Numerical and Experimental ResearchJulian Hänig, Paulina Bukieda, Michael Engelmann et al.Glass is a linear-elastic and isotropic building material which allows for a quick calculation of internal forces and stress in the design stage. However, in safety applications, e.g. overhead glazing or balustrades, it is made into laminated glass using plastic interlayers. Their material properties change over time and are temperature-dependent. Additionally, larger spans and the demand to reduce the amount … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2019 · 13,559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Pareto Solutions of a Dynamic C Chart: An Application of Statistical Process Control on a Semiconductor Devices Manufacturing ProcessToni Lupo, Filippo SgroiThe present paper proposes a novel economic-statistical design procedure of a dynamic c control chart for the Statistical Process Control (SPC) of the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices. Particularly, a non-linear constrained mathematical programming model is formulated and solved by means of the ϵ-constraint method. A numerical application is developed in order to describe the Pareto frontier, that is the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 28 May 2015 · 6,473 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Slope Geometry on Flowslide OccurrenceChiara DeangeliThe paper reports a study aimed to the prediction of susceptibility to flowslide of granular soil slopes as a consequence of the in situ state of stress. In particular, the slope geometry has been investigated as a factor influencing the initial state of stress. For this purpose the results of numerical models, performed by a finite different approach (FLAC), allowed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,972 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStability Analysis and Stability Chart for Unsaturated Residual Soil SlopeBujang B.K. Huat, Faisal Hj. Ali, R. S.K. RajooIn tropical residual soils most hill slope failures are caused by rainfall. It is therefore important to consider dynamic hydrological conditions when attempting to analyze the stability of residual soil slopes. This paper describes a coupled hydrology/stability model that has been developed to overcome the limitations of the standard method of analysis used to investigate stability of tropical soil slopes. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,325 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplified Analysis of the Lining Behavior During Earthquakes in Deep Rock TunnelsPierpaolo OresteThe sizing of the lining of a tunnel requires to consider not only the static loads transmitted from the surrounding rock, but also the effects of earthquakes on the stresses and strains of the lining. The detailed evaluation of the interaction earthquake-lining using numerical methods typically requires very long calculation time and can be limited to the verification of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 4 May 2015 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
