Simple Procedure for Preliminary Estimation of the Permeability of Randomly Fractured Rock Masses
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2024 , Article)A data-driven approach is used to show the significant discrepancy between the coefficients of permeability that are estimated through packer field tests and those back-calculated from the actual discharge pumped out of ... -
Simple PWM technique for a three-to-five phase matrix converter
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)Multi-phase converters for more than three-phase applications have become increasingly important topics due to their distinct advantages compared with the conventional three-phase converters. This paper proposes a modified ... -
Simple voltage regulation method for smart grid applications
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Conference Paper)The complexity of power systems and the change of demand load at the consumer make it necessary to control the voltage to avoid any unnecessary voltage drop beyond the limits allowed within the international standards and ... -
Simpler is also better in approximating fixed points
( Elsevier , 2008 , Article)In this paper we demonstrate that a number of fixed point iteration problems can be solved using a modified Krasnoselskij iteration process, which is much simpler to use than the other iteration schemes that have been defined -
Simplified compression field theory-based model for shear strength of fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix-strengthened reinforced concrete beams
( American Concrete Institute , 2020 , Article)Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems are becoming an excellent choice for the shear strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams owing to their excellent structural performance and compatibility with the ... -
Simplified generic on-line PWM technique for single phase grid connected current source inverters
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2012 , Conference Paper)Mandatory restrictions for a current source inverter's (CSI's) proper operation, like continuity of the DC link current, complicate the corresponding PWM generation especially in the case of single phase systems. Classical ... -
A simplified method for calculating saturated liquid densities
( Elsevier B.V. , 2004 , Article)A simplification for the Nasrifar–Moshfeghian (NM) liquid density correlation has been developed. A replacement for the Mathias and Copeman temperature-dependent term with the original Soave–Redlich–Kwong equation of state ... -
The simplified tax regime for micro and small enterprises in Egypt: An analysis of the theoretical and implementation issues
