Addressing Cloud Computing in Enterprise Architecture: Issues and Challenges
(
Cutter Consortium
, 2009 , Article)
This article discusses how the characteristics of cloud computing affect the enterprise architecture in four domains: business, data, application and technology. The ownership and control of architectural components are ...
Digitally-tuned resolver converter
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2009 , Article)
Sinusoidal encoders provide electrical signals related to the sine and cosine of the mechanical shaft angle θ. An analog converter is described for the linearization of these signals and hence for linear computation of θ. ...
A review of problem solving capabilities in lean process management
(
Science Publications
, 2008 , Article)
Human factor plays an important role in ensuring lean process management to be successful and provides good proposition for the success of the organization in the long run. One of the main elements of people is their problem ...
Finite element analysis of sheet metal forming process
(
EuroJournals Publishing, Inc.
, 2009 , Article)
Minimization of response times and costs and maximization of the efficiency and quality in producing a product are imperative for survival in the competitive manufacturing industry. Sheet metal forming is a widely used and ...
Developing Engineering Learning Objects Online Portal with LabVIEW and an Open Source Web Content Management System
(
ASEE
, 2009 , Article)
Learning objects (LOs) are independent chunks of knowledge normally used for instructional or learning purposes. LOs are normally reusable in the sense that they can be adopted and adapted for various learning and instructional ...
Validation of CFD simulation for flat plate solar energy collector
(
Elsevier
, 2007 , Article)
The problem of flat plate solar energy collector with water flow is simulated and analyzed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. The considered case includes the CFD modeling of solar irradiation and the modes ...
Stability of membrane fouling particles under perikinetic and orthokinetic flow conditions
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
Stability of fouling particles against Brownian motion (perikinetic) and simple shear flow (orthokinetic) was investigated. The effect of the various parameters such as particle radius, Hamaker constant, salt (1-1 type) ...
Simulation and economic evaluation of natural gas hydrates [NGH] as an alternative to liquefied natural gas [LNG]
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2005 , Article)
Despite the fact that relatively little is known about the ultimate resource potential of natural gas hydrates, it is certain that gas hydrates are a vast storehouse of natural gas and significant technical challenges need ...
Interestingness filtering engine: Mining Bayesian networks for interesting patterns
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2009 , Article)
In this paper, we present a new measure of interestingness to discover interesting patterns based on the user’s background knowledge, represented by a Bayesian network. The new measure (sensitivity measure) captures the ...
A novel multilevel carrier-based PWM-control method for GTO inverter in low index modulation region
(
IEEE
, 2006 , Article)
Gate turn offs (GTOs) have an inherent minimum ON-OFF time, which is needed for their safe operation. For GTO-based three-level or neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverters, this minimum ON-OFF pulsewidth limitation results ...
