Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdopting Intelligent Modelling to Trace Fault in Underground Optical Network: A Comprehensive SurveyOwusu Nyarko-Boateng, Adebayo F. Adekoya, Benjamin A. WeyoriAiming at building new global optical network infrastructure optimized with fault tracing capabilities, light transmission monitoring, packets re-routing and reconfigurations require an intelligent optical transmission system. An intelligent approach to solve the increasingly complex problems, to enhance fault tracing in the underground optical network infrastructure need to be adopted. For over forty decades now, Optical Time Domain Reflectometry (OTDR) technology … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 10 · 13 Oct 2020 · 6,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMost Used Rock Mass Classifications for Underground OpeningAl-Jbori A’ssim, Zhang Y. XingProblem statement: Rock mass characterization is an integral part of rock engineering practice. The empirical design methods based on rock mass classifications systems provide quick assessments of the support requirements for underground excavations at any stage of a project, even if the available geotechnical data are limited. The underground excavation industry tends to lean on empirical approaches such as rock … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of the Stability of Underground Rock Pillars through a Probabilistic ApproachMassimo Guarascio, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: When the room and pillar mining method is adopted, the dimensioning of the rock pillars is one of the most important aspects that need to be faced from the engineering point of view. The available calculation methods are usually simplified and involve the areas of influence method for the evaluation of the mean axial stress induced in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 30 Jun 2012 · 7,031 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 · 9,090 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Identification of a Bioflocculant-Producing Strain and Application in Rice Vinegar ClarificationWeilian Hu, Dehui DaiA bioflocculant-producing bacterium S-3# was isolated from fresh sand bones 40-50 cm underground in the desert region of China’s Ningxia Province. It was identified as Paenibacillus sp. based on 16S rDNA sequence along with its biochemical and morphological characteristics. Chemical analysis found that the bioflocculant from S-3# is mainly composed of extracellular polysaccharide. Researchers observed no noticeable change (above 91%) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 30 Dec 2020 · 5,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNondestructive Test Using a 3D Computer Vision System for Damage Detection of StructuresTaylor M.V. Szeto, Sun YiStructures that do not have a definitive map nor a clearly known state of health may exist underground, beyond our reach and in unsuitable environments. Nuclear facilities contain underground tunnels that exhaust hazardous gases. Industry has miles of sewage lines beneath it that emit flammable and toxic gases. Regular inspection and maintenance is an essential part of failure prevention, however, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2018 · 8,257 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNasa Selects Concepts for a New Mission to Titan, the Moon of SaturnRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuNasa just has selected two new concepts for some new robotic missions, one of which aims to explore potential landing sites on Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. This first concept is named Dragonfly, which is a drone-like rotorcraft that would use the environment on Titan to fly to a number of locations to sample materials and determine surface composition to examine … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2018 · 12,003 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Inverse Kinematics of the Plane System 2-3 in a Mechatronic MP2R System, by a Trigonometric MethodRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.Robots have penetrated today in almost all industrial fields, being much more precise than humans in the execution of operations, but also faster, more dynamic, more stable and more resilient, working 24 h of the 24 h possible, in any season, breaks, holidays, vacations and especially without getting sick. The most important fact is that they can also perform special … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 20 Dec 2017 · 7,806 accessesView PDFCite
