Predictive Dynamic Window Approach Development with Artificial Neural Fuzzy Inference Improvement
(MDPI, 2019-08-26)
The aim of this paper is to improve the dynamic window approach algorithm for mobile robots by implementing a prediction window with a fuzzy inference system to adapt to fixed parameters, depending on the surrounding ...
Experimental Evaluation of Perfluorocarbon Aerosol Generation with Two Novel Nebulizer Prototypes
(MDPI, 2019-01-05)
The potential of non-invasive ventilation procedures and new minimally invasive techniques has resulted in the research of alternative approaches as the aerosolization for the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome ...
Computational Modeling of Gurney Flaps and Microtabs by POD Method
(MDPI, 2018-08)
Gurney flaps (GFs) and microtabs (MTs) are two of the most frequently used passive flow control devices on wind turbines. They are small tabs situated close to the airfoil trailing edge and normal to the surface. A study ...
Differential Evolution Optimal Parameters Tuning with Artificial Neural Network
(MDPI, 2021-02-21)
Differential evolution (DE) is a simple and efficient population-based stochastic algorithm for solving global numerical optimization problems. DE largely depends on algorithm parameter values and search strategy. Knowledge ...
Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Controlled with an IGBT H-Bridge and Bidirectional Buck–Boost for Low-Cost 4G Devices
(MDPI, 2020-12-09)
In this work, a semi-submersible piezoelectric energy harvester was used to provide power to a low-cost 4G Arduino shield. Initially, unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS)-based simulations were conducted to ...
Estimating the Reattachment Length by Realizing a Comparison between URANS k-Omega SST and LES WALE Models on a Symmetric Geometry
(MDPI, 2021-07-24)
In this study, a water reattachment length was calculated by adopting two different models. The first was based on Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS) k-omega with Shear Stress Transport (SST); the second was ...

(MDPI, 2022-03-17)
This article, investigates the behaviour of an ionized nanoliquid motion regarding heat transmission between two parallel discs. In the proposed model, the squeezing flow of Cu-water nanofluid with electrical potential ...
Natural Ventilation Characterization in a Classroom under Different Scenarios
(MDPI, 2021-05-19)
The COVID-19 pandemic has pointed to the need to increase our knowledge in fields related to human breathing. In the present study, temperature, relative humidity, carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration, and median particle ...
Numerical Simulation of a Time-Dependent Electroviscous and Hybrid Nanofluid with Darcy-Forchheimer Effect between Squeezing Plates
(MDPI, 2022-03-06)
In this article, the behavior of transient electroviscous fluid flow is investigated through squeezing plates containing hybrid nanoparticles. A hybrid nanofluid MoS2+Au/C2H6O2−H2O was formulated by dissolving the components ...
Modeling of Motorized Orthosis Control
(MDPI, 2019-06-15)
Orthotic devices are defined as externally applied devices that are used to modify the structural and functional characteristics of the neuro-muscular and skeletal systems. The aim of the current study is to improve the ...
