Investigating the effect of the air inlet temperature on the combustion characteristics of a spark ignition engine fueled by biogas
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2020 , Article)
This work has conducted a numerical study using AVL-Boost engine simulation utilizing biogas (CH4 and CO2)–air mixtures in a SI engine model. The effect of varying the air manifold temperature from 25 to 50°C on the ...
Synthesis and characterization of electroactive novel poly-2-cynoaniline
(
Indian Academy of Sciences
, 2014 , Article)
Uniform needle-like structures of poly-2-cynoaniline are formed without the use of any template by electrochemical oxidative polymerization method on copper electrode in acidic medium. The structural characterizations are ...
A branch-and-price algorithm for the two-stage guillotine cutting stock problem
(
Palgrave Macmillan Ltd.
, 2013 , Article)
We investigate the two-stage guillotine two-dimensional cutting stock problem. This problem commonly arises in the industry when small rectangular items need to be cut out of large stock sheets. We propose an integer ...
Microtron Irradiation Induced Tuning of Band Gap and Photoresponse of Al-ZnO Thin Films Synthesized by mSILAR
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
Al-doped polycrystalline nano ZnO (Al-ZnO) thin films with different doping concentrations were successfully prepared by the microwave-assisted successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (mSILAR) technique. The structural ...

(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Today, increasing levels of water demand become a particularly serious challenge for many countries, especially since water is an essential element for production of transportation fuels. Unfortunately, no research efforts ...
Nonlinear dynamic characteristics of nonlocal multi-phase magneto-electro-elastic nano-tubes with different piezoelectric constituents
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
Analysis of exact nonlinear dynamic behavior of multi-phase magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) nanoshells has been presented in this paper using Jacobi elliptic functions. Multi-phase MEE material is constructed form piezoelectric ...
Performance evaluation of gas-power strategies for building energy conservation
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
The work provided herein involves a comparison of natural gas and hydrogen fuels for the purpose of energy conservation for buildings via alternative energy generation methodologies. A case study simulation was developed ...
Bird strike analysis on a typical helicopter windshield with different lay-ups
(
Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers
, 2014 , Article)
In the current paper, bird strike to a typical helicopter windshield is investigated using smoothed particles hydrodynamic (SPH) finite element method. Five types of lay-ups in a windshield (single layer stretch acrylic, ...
Optimized statistical parameters of acoustic emission signals for monitoring of rolling element bearings
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Acoustic emission (AE) signal generated from artificial defects in rolling element bearings are investigated using experimental measurements in this paper. Rolling element bearings are crucial parts of many machines and ...
Application of hybrid framework to facilitate lean six sigma implementation: a manufacturing company case experience
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2018 , Article)
This study aims to propose a hybrid framework for lean six sigma (LSS) based on the prioritisation of barriers and solution approaches, to facilitate hassles free applications for handling the challenges of wastes reduction ...
