This paper presents a comparative study of some of the best known and widely used arch profiles, in an endeavour to investigating their structural performance and to determining optimum arch form and depth. Arch profiles ...

The objective of this work is to characterize the rainfall in Doha which lies in an arid region. The rainfall data included daily rainfall depth since 1962 and the hyetographs of the individual storms since 1976. The ...

The design of an Electronic-Mail system that can operate in a personal computer (PC) environment is presented. The underlying philosophy is based on a centralized mailbox approach, wherein a dedicated SERVER stores the ...

In electrical power systems, dynamic stability problems may be solved through the application of power system stabilizers (PSS), which improve the performance of the main automatic voltage regulators (AVR's) of the synchronous ...

Floorplanning is the process of partitioning an area on any surface such that the partitions guarantee minimum wasted area. The technique used to partition a given are depends on the requirements of the application. In an ...

The proposed software aims at enhancing the monitoring of the E10-B telephone exchange. It combines functions normally performed by two dedicated hardware devices and facilitates access to detailed maintenance information ...

The overall mass transfer coefficients of single drops of carbon tetrachloride falling in a stagnant continuous phase of water containing acetic acid as solute were measured experimentally for different dispersed phase ...

This paper presents two programs for microcomputer aided assessment of the performance of robot manipulators. The first program automatically generates robot models based on user-supplied kinematic parameters. The program ...

Binary interaction parameters are routinely developed to improve the accuracy of equation of state estimations for binary mixtures. For a given data set, the numerical value of the vapor-liquid equilibrium constant varies ...
