Nowadays the demand for reducing pollutant emissions and fuel consumption have paved the way of developing more fuel-efficient power generation system for transportation sector. Micro gas turbine (MGT) system can be an alternative to internal combustion reciprocating engine due to its light-weight and less fuel consumption. In this paper, some major running and operating characteristics of MGT ...

abstract coontail (ceratophyllum demersum) and watermilfoil (myriophyllum spicatum) are current submersed weeds in many fresh waters of iran. the excessive growth of these plants causes the reduction in utilization of water resources and making some ecological and economical damages in these areas. the aim of this study was to determine the response of two submerged aquatic weeds of coontail an...

the edges of an image define the image boundary. when the image is noisy, it does not become easy to identify the edges. therefore, a method requests to be developed that can identify edges clearly in a noisy image. many methods have been proposed earlier using filters, transforms and wavelets with ant colony optimization (aco) that detect edges. we here used aco for edge detection of noisy ima...

Removing salt and pepper noise is an active research area in image processing. In this paper, a two-phase method is proposed for removing salt and pepper noise while preserving edges and fine details. In the first phase, noise candidate pixels are detected which are likely to be contaminated by noise. In the second phase, only noise candidate pixels are restored using adaptive median filter. In...
