Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSomething about a Railbound Forging ManipulatorRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuHeavy payload forging manipulators are mainly characterized by large load output and large capacitive load input. The relationships between outputs and inputs have greatly influenced the control and reliability. Forging manipulators have become more prevalent in the industry today. They are used to manipulate objects to be forged. The most common forging manipulators are moving on a railway to have … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 8 May 2019 · 7,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Geometric and Environmental Parameters in Reuse of Deactivated Railway for LRV ImplantationIsabelle S. Sales, Gislaine Santos, Jordan H. Souza, Ana StephanA portion of the origin-destination matrix of freight transport in Brazil corresponds to the railway mode; however, a small part of the matrix of passengers is represented by the modalities that use railway lines. The country has an extensive railway network, mainly in the southeast, but some parts are deactivated. This article aims to present a study of the possibility … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 31 Oct 2017 · 8,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImproving the Traffic Flow in Hot Arid Climate Areas by Implementing a Monorail Light Rail Transit System: Case of KuwaitTaha Ahmed, Mohamed Salem, Ahmad Saad, Abdel Rahman AlaqqadThis study investigated the viability of establishing a monorail network system in Kuwait as an additional means of transportation to the current transportation systems. Two critical areas with high traffic demands were identified through the collected traffic data at the major intersections in these areas., These areas were Kuwait City (near the ministries area) and Al-Blajat street (known as the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2021 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE MANAGEMENT OF UNCERTAINTY: MODEL FOR EVALUATION OF HUMAN ERROR PROBABILITY IN RAILWAY SYSTEMLombardi Mara, Guarascio Massimo, Rossi GiulianoThe methodology of quantitative risk assessment in use in the railway industry refers the RAMS approach, as expected in EN 50126, to define the failure of the system. From the probability of failure follows the evaluation of the failure consequence, the check of the accident occurrence and finally, the analysis of the achievable accident scenarios to quantify the damage as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Dec 2013 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalysis of the Tunnel Boring Machine Advancement on the Bologna-Florence Railway LinkM. Cardu, P. Oreste, T. CicalaProblem statement: The high-velocity railway link between Bologna and Firenze (Italy) is today under construction and several tunnels have to be excavated for this purpose, some of these using TBMs. A small diameter tunnel, named Cunicolo ginori, was realized by TBM parallel to a large railway tunnel (Vaglia), at the distance of only 35 m. Approach: The Vaglia tunnel had … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsKinematics and Forces to a New Model Forging ManipulatorRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Bilal Akash et al.Forging manipulators have become more prevalent in the industry of today. They are used to manipulate objects to be forged. The most common forging manipulators move on a railway to have a better precision and stability. Heavy payload forging manipulators systems are normally characterized by a large load output and a large capacitive load input as well. The relationship between … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 3 Jan 2017 · 8,173 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Methodological Framework for Software Safety in Safety Critical Computer SystemsP. V. Srinivas Acharyulu, P. SeetharamaiahSoftware safety must deal with the principles of safety management, safety engineering and software engineering for developing safety-critical computer systems, with the target of making the system safe, risk-free and fail-safe in addition to provide a clarified differentaition for assessing and evaluating the risk, with the principles of software risk management. Problem statement: Prevailing software quality models, standards were not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 16 Aug 2012 · 7,659 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Review on Electric Traction using WE SystemAnurag Dwivedi, Dhananjay Kumar, Nitesh TiwariIn this analysis, the recent trend the generated renewable source energy (like wind energy) utilized the traction system. Present a limited conventional source. Environment pollution by the burning of diesel fuel will be increased. And the using wind energy source controls the pollution and efficiency will be increased. In this process, the wind energy system is connected to the network … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 6 May 2019 · 6,720 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCreating New Spaces for Learning: Fostering Experiential and Service Learning, Journeys through the African American PastDolapo Adeniji-NeillProblem statement: Experiential education and service learning are interchangeable. They are defined as an approach to education that implicitly trusts the learner’s ability to learn through experience, rather than a movement for change that seeks to challenge mainstream education. While literature, research, communities and schools recognize the importnce of experiential education, controversies exit as to their efficacies in learning processes. … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2012 · 9,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Reliability Calculations for the Thin Specialty Glass PV Solar PanelsDhananjay Joshi, James E. WebbThis study provides important design guidance to the Photovoltaic (PV) solar panel development efforts using the finite element based computations of the PV module under the mechanical loadings. We consider specialty thin glass (Corning Eagle XG®) as superstrate of the PV module, while a standard tempered Soda-Lime-Silica Glass (SLG) is considered as bottom support. The reliability calculations for the module … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 3 Sep 2019 · 7,141 accessesView PDFCite
