facts technology has considerable applications in power systems, such as; improving the steady stateperformance, damping the power system oscillations, controlling the power flow, and etc. statcom is oneof the most important facts devices used in the parallel compensation, enhancing transient stability andetc. since three phase fault is widespread in power systems, in this paper statcom is used...

rice blast, caused by pyricularia grisea, is one of the most important diseases of this crop in iran and all over the world. to evaluate the relationship between spore population (sp) and meteorological factors, sp was measured daily using spore trap during growing seasons of 2006-2008 in rasht and lahijan regions (guilan province, iran). weather data including precipitation, daily maximum and ...

In this study, an artificial neural network was developed in order to analyze flexible pavement structure and determine its critical responses under the influence of standard axle loading. In doing so, more than 10000 four-layered flexible pavement sections composed of asphalt concrete layer, base layer, subbase layer, and subgrade soil were analyzed under the impact of standard axle loading. P...

correct estimation of suspended sediment transported by a river is an important practice in water structure design, environmental problems and water quality issues. conventionally, sediment rating curve used for suspended sediment estimation in rivers. in this method discharge and sediment discharge or concentration related using regression relation that generally is exponential model. respect ...

artificial neural network is one of the most robust and reliable methods in online prediction of nonlinear incidents in machining. tool flank wear as a tool life criterion is an important task which is needed to be predicted during machining processes to establish an online tool life estimation system. in this study, an artificial neural network model was developed to predict the tool wear and ...

The present investigation entails a procedure by which the surface tension and viscosity of liquids could be redicted.To this end, capillary experiments were performed for porous media by utilizing fifteen different liquids and powders. The time of capillary rise to a certain known height of each liquid in a particular powder was recorded. Two artificial neural networks (ANNs) were...

An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used to analyse the capillary rise in porous media. Wetting experiments were performed with fifteen liquids and fifteen different powders. The liquids covered a wide range  of  surface  tension ( 15.45-71.99  mJ/m2 )  and  viscosity (0.25-21 mPa.s). The powders also provided an acceptable range of particle size (0.012-45 μm) and surface free...
