Intelligent Electromagnetic Braking System
Abstract: AbstractThe principle of conventional braking system involves the conversion of kinetic energy into heat. It uses development of contact friction for retardation. When the brake is applied, the brake shoes having a friction material lining are forced by hydraulic wheel cylinders against the inner surface of a rotating drum. The result of this contact produces friction, enabling the vehicle to slow down and stop. The design consideration is such that …

Comparison of Bond Strengths of Nano and Microhybrid Flowable Composites for Orthodontic Bonding: An Invitro Study
Abstract: Introduction: When the orthodontic brackets are bonded to the etched enamel, the ideal orthodontic adhesive should have optimal bond strength and be able to withstand masticatory forces as well as orthodontic forces. At the same time, when the treatment is completed, the bracket should debond without causing any damage to the enamel. There have been many recent advances in composites in general and their applications in orthodontic use is questionable. …

A PWM Based Series Compensator for Power System Performance Enhancement
Abstract: Enhancement of power system stability through a relatively new FACTS device named pulse width modulated series compensator (PWMSC) in the transmission line has been investigated in this article. The three-phase PWMSC is realized with a simple pulse width modulated (PWM) AC link converter consisting of four force-commutated switches and a three-phase diode bridge. The PWMSC is modeled as a continuously controllable series capacitive reactance in the transmission line of a …

A New Description of Multi-phase Flow Behavior at Boundary Layers of Low-permeability Porous Media
Abstract: At present, the recovery factor of low permeability oilfield in China is only about 20%, which is enormously lower than the recovery factor index of 60% by using water-chemical flooding in medium and high permeability layer. There are a lot of causes that resulted in low recovery factor, among them that the complex pore structure, tiny throat, large pore throat ratio and non-Darcy flow in low-permeability oil layer are the …

A Survey of Haptic Feedback Integration in Mobile Devices
Abstract: “HAPTICS is a technique that gives virtual environments a tactile element. With haptic interfaces, we may create the impression that we are feeling surfaces, manipulating virtual clay, or moving objects around on a computer in addition to seeing them. Because touch is the brain's most powerful learning mechanism—more so than sight or sound—the new technology has enormous potential for use in education. Using haptic technology is similar to using a …

Seismic Performance of Flat Slab Buildings Considering P-Delta Effect
Abstract: Flat slab structures are becoming quite popular due to functional and architectural advantages. The flat slab structures are flexible when compared to framed structures as the slab is directly columns. Typically the seismic forces in such a structure are resisted by shear wall systems. Under design seismic conditions the lateral displacements are large and the columns deform along with the lateral load resisting system. Under such conditions the columns are …

Analysis of Tall Structures for Different Stiffness Ratios of Columns to Shear Walls and Column Shortening
Abstract: Differential axial shortening in a structure causes axial force redistribution among columns and walls, and introduces additional forces in the horizontal members such as beams and slab. Hence, it needs to be considered in the design, especially for medium to high-rise buildings. The best way to illustrate differential column shortening is to conduct floor-by-floor analysis, generally known as construction sequence analysis. Commercial software ETABS is available for conducting sequential analysis. …
