some applications are critical and must designed fault tolerant system. usually voting algorithm is one of the principle elements of a fault tolerant system. two kinds of voting algorithm are used in most applications, they are majority voting algorithm and weighted average algorithm these algorithms have some problems. majority confronts with the problem of threshold limits and voter of weight...

The development of an excavation damaged zone (EDZ) around an underground excavation can change the physical, mechanical and hydraulic behaviors of the rock mass near an underground space. This might result in endangering safety, achievement of costs and excavation planed. This paper presents an approach to build a prediction model for the assessment of EDZ, based upon rock mass characteristics...

Swelling in compacted soils may lead to some damages structures and buildings. For the sake of reducing such damages, soil swelling should be determined, so as make exhibit adequate resistance against a phenomenon. most cases, fully non-linear relations have been observed between parameters contributing soil. As such, determined via either experimentations or prediction models. However, being e...

Shear wave velocity (Vs) data are key information for petrophysical, geophysical and geomechanical studies. Although compressional wave velocity (Vp) measurements exist in almost all wells, shear wave velocity is not recorded for most of elderly wells due to lack of technologic tools. Furthermore, measurement of shear wave velocity is to some extent costly. This study proposes a novel methodolo...

Knowledge of the distinctive frequencies and amplitudes broken rotor bar (BRB) faults in induction motor (IM) is essential for most fault diagnosis methods. Fast Fourier transform (FFT) widely applied to diagnose within BRBs. However, this method does not provide satisfactory results if it directly stator current signal at low slip because a high-resolution spectrum required separate different ...

Three Neuro-Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS) including Grid Partitioning (GP), Subtractive Clustering (SCM) and Fuzzy C-means clustering Methods (FCM) have been used to predict the groutability of granular soil samples with cement-based grouts. Laboratory data from related available in litterature was used for the tests. Several parameters were taken into account in the proposed models: water:ce...

Despite of acquiring popularity among researchers, the implementations of ANFIS-based models face problems when the number of rules surge dramatically and increase the network complexity, which consequently adds computational cost. Essentially, not all the rules in ANFIS knowledge-base are the potential ones. They contain those rules which have either minor or no contribution to overall decisio...

Electricity has become an important concern in today’s society. This is due to the fact that electric grid now a greater number of non-linear components. The AC-powered locomotive one these aim this paper was model and predict reactive power produced by AC locomotive. presents study on modelling prediction locomotives. Reactive flow significant impact network voltage levels efficiency. research...

Determining the rules that lead to expansion of urban areas has always been a challenging factor in modeling. To overcome this issue, an ANFIS model is proposed enhance simulation growth through automatic production transition rules. Hence, 22 models were trained using different division methods and Cellular Automata-based Markov Chain (CA-MC) was developed examine their efficiencies. The resul...
