A New Reliability Evaluation Methodology With Application to Lifetime Oriented Circuit Design

a new type-ii fuzzy logic based controller for non-linear dynamical systems with application to 3-psp parallel robot

abstract type-ii fuzzy logic has shown its superiority over traditional fuzzy logic when dealing with uncertainty. type-ii fuzzy logic controllers are however newer and more promising approaches that have been recently applied to various fields due to their significant contribution especially when the noise (as an important instance of uncertainty) emerges. during the design of type- i fuz...

Improved FTA Methodology and Application to Subsea Pipeline Reliability Design

An innovative logic tree, Failure Expansion Tree (FET), is proposed in this paper, which improves on traditional Fault Tree Analysis (FTA). It describes a different thinking approach for risk factor identification and reliability risk assessment. By providing a more comprehensive and objective methodology, the rather subjective nature of FTA node discovery is significantly reduced and the resul...

Gender-Oriented Education: A New Approach to Gender Equity

The twentieth century can be considered the century of gender approaches. From extremist and one-sided movements to moderate and neutral schools of thought about gender, which have surrounded the last century and all of them had originated in achieving gender justice, but each has taken a different approach as a different definition of equity. The curriculum is no exception to this rule. The pu...
