Elshennawy (Program Chair); Dr. Yasser A. Hosni (Publications Chair).Includes author index.This book features the proceedings of the 1994 Annual International Conference on Industry, Engineering, and Management Systems (IEMS '94), held March 14 -16, 1994 in Cocoa Beach, Florida. IEMS is organized by the University of Central Florida, Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Systems (UCF-IEMS). The conference is an excellent opportunity for academicians and practitioners to present their work and to exchange views on a variety of issues which relate to industry and its engineering management.
Authors from 11 countries have contributed more than 135 papers and presentations. All papers submitted for the proceedings went through a blind peer refereeing process where each paper was reviewed by at least two reviewers. Abstracts for presentations only and for those papers which did not make it in the final cut are also included in this document.Sponsor: Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Systems, University of Central Florida.The papers are organized into eight tracks encompassing all sessions of the conference. The tracks are: I. Quality Issues -- II. CIM and Manufacturing Technologies -- III. Computer Based Systems -- IV. Human Engineering -- V. Systems Engineering and Control -- VI. Simulation, Training, and Engineering Education -- VII. Optimization and Decision Support Systems -- VIII. Global Issues

Analysis of physiological death in equine chondrocytes
No full textDeposited with permission of the author. © 2007 Dr. Yasser Ahmed.Chondrocytes in growth cartilage undergo proliferation, hypertrophy, and then die by a mechanism that has not been characterised. The aims of the current study were to document the morphology of dying hypertrophic chondrocytes in equine growth cartilage and to establish a culture system in which the isolated chondrocytes can be induced to undergo the same modes of hypertrophy and physiological death seen in growth cartilage in vivo. Growth cartilage from foetal and growing postnatal horses was examined by electron microscopy. Ultrastructural studies of the tissue specimens suggested that the two types of hypertrophic chondrocytes that have previously been described as dark and light cells were dying by different non-apoptotic forms of cell death. Dying hypertrophic dark chondrocytes were characterised by a dark nucleus, and their cytoplasm appeared to undergo extrusion into the extracellular matrix, whereas light chondrocytes appeared to disintegrate within the cell membrane

Determination and influence of the ledge shape on electrical potential and fluid motion in a smelter
No full textHelium thermodynamics, analytical model
No full textThe thermodynamic properties of helium at wide range of temperature and pressure are analytically derived from the knowledge of the pair spherical potentials to which quantum corrections are superposed. The double Yukawa potential model is considered to describe the intermolecular attraction and repulsion energies. Low temperature quantum effects are incorporated by using the first order quantum correction of the Wigner-Kirkwood expansion. A fundamental equation of state is formulated including Helmholtz energy as an explicit function of temperature and density. The thermodynamic properties are expressed as an explicit combination of the Helmholtz energy and its derivatives. The obtained values are compared to the thermodynamic data and the Molecular Dynamic calculations, a satisfactory correspondence with simulation results is realized. The feature of helium thermodynamics in the critical region is discussed. Contrary to most previous similar works, the present theory retrieves the main features of the helium at wide temperature and pressure from analytical formulation
Appareil aéroporté pour la production d'énergie éolienne
No full textpatent submitter:Safa YasserLa présente invention introduit un nouveau système éolien plus léger que l’air pour la production de l’énergie électrique de courant du vent à hautes altitudes. Le système introduit contient une nouvelle turbine verticale basée sur une conception bionique qui présente deux effets: une puissance de rotation pour fonctionner le générateur et une force portante du système flottant dans l’air. Ceci est conçu pour conserver une position quasi-verticale du rotor dans le cas du fort vent avec un aérostat à taille réduite et une quantité contrôlée de l’Hélium utilisé
