Jan 01, 2007; Mohideen, S. Kaja ... Abstract This paper presents the design and simulation results of asynchronous micro pipeline using an effective Double Edge Triggered D Flip-Flop (DETDFF). Here an attempt has been made to construct an asynchronous micro pipeline using the proposed DETDFF with an aim to have ...
Sensorless anti-swing control for automatic gantry crane system: model-based approach.(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Solihin, Mahmud Iwan ... Abstract To achieve a good control performance of automatic gantry crane system, sensors are indispensable instrument for feedback signals. However, sensing the payload motion of a real gantry crane, particularly swing motion, is troublesome and often costly. Therefore, ...
Frequency-time MMSE equalizer for BER enhancement of MC-CDMA systems over mulipath fading channel.(bit error rate)(Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access)(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Bouasria, F. ... Abstract This paper examines the performance of a multicarrier CDMA system over multipath fading channel. Due to the dispersive nature of the mobile communications channels, Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) signals will be affected by Inter Channel ...
Influence of the operating parameters on the performance of belt skimmer.(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Kassab, Sadek Z. ... Abstract The present experimental study is dealing with the effect of varying the operating parameters on the performance of belt skimmer. The belt linear speed, belt inclination angle, and oil film thickness are the operating parameters considered in the present study. The ...
Performance of fractionally spaced blind channel shortening.(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Elahmar, S.A. ... Abstract In this paper we derive the Multicarrier Equalization by Restoration of RedundancyY (MERRY) algorithm for a fractionally-spaced channel shortening (or time domain equalizer) (FSTEQ and show that the FSTEQ MERRY algorithm converges significantly faster than the ...
Simulation of directly grid-connected wind turbines for voltage fluctuation evaluation.(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; El-Tamaly, Hassan H. ... Abstract Power and voltage generated by a wind turbine are more variable than that produced by conventional generators. Therefore, with the increasing penetration of wind energy into the grid, it is very important to simulate precisely the wind turbine/grid interaction to ...
Experimental investigation of Elliptical jet in coflow.(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Mebarka, Hakem ... Abstract The objective of the present study is to investigate systematically the mixing characteristics of an Elliptical jet with varying large aspect ratio in a co-flow current using experimental technique. Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) technique is employed to measure the ...
Optimal trajectory selection for a three DOF manipulator with minimum energy consumption.(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Ata, Atef A. ... Abstract Trajectory planning of redundant manipulator is a very active area since many tasks are requiring special characteristics to be satisfied. The importance of redundant manipulators has been increased for the last two decades because of the possibility to avoid ...
An approach for surface reconstruction of 3D CAD models.(computer-aided design)(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Tiwari, Amod ... Abstract This paper proposes the algorithm to repair 3D artifact/model for which no data is available for the missing part. It presents an efficient healing algorithm that exploits information about the curvature (k) versus arc length (s) of the neighborhood point cloud data ...
Diffusion-thermo and thermal-diffusion effects on free convective heat and mass transfer flow in a porous medium with time dependent temperature and concentration.(Report)
Jan 01, 2007; Alam, M.S. ... Abstract The diffusion-thermo and thermal-diffusion effects on unsteady free convection and mass transfer flow along an accelerated vertical porous plate embedded in a porous medium have been studied numerically taking the plate temperature and concentration to be functions of ...
