Experimental study of the effect of a contact conditioner on sliding electrical contacts

Chandurkar, Dhananjay; Rajan, Naveen Mukund; Badamikar, Anupam Shirish (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2007-04-27)

The Electro Magnetic Rail Gun on board with Navy consists of high current carrying copper rails. Aprojectile carrier or armature slides over these rails with very high velocities. Inefficient sliding contact conditions between ...
Genetic algorithm to solve a multi-objective scheduling problem

Mouzon, Gilles C.; Yildirim, Mehmet Bayram (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2007-04-27)

Energy is expensive and a potential way to reduce energy consumption may be through using intelligent scheduling techniques. In this paper, we propose a genetic algorithm to solve a single machine scheduling problem where ...
Study of damage distribution over the primary shear zone in the metal cutting using nanoindentation

Kashani, Saket M.; Madhavan, Viswanathan (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2007-04-27)

In our effort to develop metal cutting as a high strain rate test, we are interested in mapping the damage distribution over the primary shear zone (PSZ). The approach is to quantify the modulus degradation via nanoindentation ...
Determination of carbon monoxide detector location in general aviation aircraft to improve safety

Ahmady, Ali; Assadi, Morteza; Muthuswamy, Selvakumar (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)

There are many sources of carbon monoxide (CO) leakage into the cabin of General Aviation (GA) aircraft. Exposure to CO, which is part of the engine exhaust in GA aircraft, can impede the pilot’s ability to direct the ...
Review and classification of Kansei Engineering and its applications

Ahmady, Ali (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)

Using customer requirements and needs in the product development process has become a major subject in quality engineering. Many scholars have tried to develop systems that enable product developers and designers to ...
Modeling and optimization of a health care system

Assadi, Morteza (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)

In many applications, the number of elements in the system (i.e., machines, jobs, customers) is either constant or remain fixed. This type of a system is modeled as a closed queuing system. Closed queuing systems are those ...
Applying lean production techniques in 40/45 assembly line of Learjet Inc.

Iqbal, Qamar (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)
Analysis of the effect of carbon monoxide exposure on accidents/incidents in general aviation aircraft

Assadi, Morteza; Ahmady, Ali; Muthuswamy, Selvakumar (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)

Exposure to carbon monoxide (CO) can cause harmful health effects depending on its concentration and duration of exposure. Exhaust system failures in general aviation (GA) aircraft can result in CO exposure which, in turn, ...
Transportation and distribution of future energy: Biofuels

Asmatulu, Eylem (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)

Biofuel is a natural resource and has a significant attraction worldwide for many applications, including transportation vehicles, house and industrial heating and electricity production in power stations. It is reported ...
Simulation-based decision making for maintenance policy selection for complex systems

Li, Zhaojun; Liao, Haitao (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)

This paper investigates the performance of deteriorating systems maintained under structural constraints using a simulation approach. Three maintenance polices are investigated, and the performance of the system is ...
Micromechanical modeling of ferrite/pearlite steels

Koushyar, Hoda; Tavakol, Behrouz; Madhavan, Viswanathan (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)

Micromechanics is the analysis of composite or heterogeneous materials on the level of the individual phases that constitute these materials. In this project micromechanical structure of ferritic/pearlitic steels was ...
A framework to minimize total energy consumption and total tardiness on a single machine

Mouzon, Gilles C.; Yildirim, Mehmet Bayram (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2008-04-25)
