rock sawability prediction and determination of effective parameters are important in the cost estimation and the planning of the stone factories. an accurate estimation of rock sawability and performance prediction of sawing machine helps to make the planning of the rock sawing projects more efficient. it is necessary to predict the rock sawability and determine the effective parameters to ach...

This paper proposes an application of evolutionary programming (EP) to reactive power planning (RPP) considering the highest load buses, instead of considering the randomly selected load buses to install the reactive power sources. The proposed approach has been used in the IEEE 30-bus system. Simulation results, compared with those obtained by using the previous method of RPP using EP, conside...

Research on pre-task planning has revealed that planned conditions have produced more fluent and complex language than unplanned conditions. To date, most of these studies have investigated the effects of individual planning on language production while collaborative planning has received scant attention. To determine the effects of pre-task planning on second language written production, the p...

cable driven parallel manipulator (cdpm) is a special class of parallel manipulator in which the rigid extensible links are replaced by actuated cables. it is necessary to take into consideration the cable dynamics, i.e.; its mass, flexibility and curved shape for manipulating a long-span cdpm. these terms complicate governing equation of motion in a way that special tactic are applied for simu...
