    No full text
    This paper presents an investigation for analysing the load carrying capacity of journal bearing in a variety of conditions using a proposed neural network (NN). The NN structure is very suitable for this kind of system. The network is capable of predicting the pressures of the experimental system. The network has parallel structure and fast learning capacity. It can be outlined from the results for both approaches, NN could be used to model journal bearing systems in real time applications

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    The problem of assembly sequence generation is complex and has proven to be difficult to solve. Various method have been used in attempting to solve the problem, including mathematical modeling and search techniques. This paper presents an investigation for analyzing assembly sequences of assembly systems with a proposed neural network predictor. The proposed neural network has three layers with recurrent structure. A fast learning algorithm Backpropagation (BP) algorithm is employed for updating the weight parameters of the proposed network

    Investigation of load carriage capacity of journal bearings by surface texturing

    No full text
    Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate and discuss the influence of the pattern, size and orientation of textures on journal bearing load carriage capacity. An important development in load carriage capacity of journal bearings can be obtained by forming regular surface structure in the form of threaded on their shaft surfaces. This is performed both theoretically and experimentally using shafts with textured (threaded) and untextured surfaces. Each screw thread can serve either as a micro-hydrodynamic bearing in cases of full or mixed lubrication or as a micro reservoir for lubricant in cases of starved lubrication conditions
