Harmonious industrialization: classifying, connecting and valuating industries based on their contribution to human need
(IEOM, 2017)
An industry can be defined as a system within which homogenous processes strive toward a common
generalizable outp
ut. An industry comprises various economic, social and environmental activities. Various ...
Energy-based visualisation of an axial-flow compressor system for the purposes of fault detection and diagnosis
(Elsevier, 2016)
As the complexity of industrial systems increases, the necessity also increases for more reliable, robust and accurate Fault Detection and Diagnosis (FDD) techniques. This article proposes a methodology for the design of ...
The use of tracking technology for improved management of trade corridors
(IEEE, 2013)
The sub-Sahara African economy is suffering from the inefficient management of trade corridors. Long delays experienced at weigh bridges and border posts are a big contributor towards the slow average movement of freight. ...
SmartRoad: a new approach to law enforcement in dense traffic environments
(IEEE, 2015)
Road transport law enforcement is facing new challenges against the background of increasingly congested traffic conditions. An ideal law enforcement system must enable authorities to detect, identify and act against illegal ...
Geometry based analysis of an alternative RFID interrogator placement for electronic vehicle identification
(IEEE, 2015)
This paper proposes a solution for reliable in-traffic electronic vehicle detection based on UHF passive RFID (ISO/IEC 18000-63 - UHF Type C). The classic overhead placement of an interrogator reading a windscreen or plate ...
The effect of real network phase disturbances on the calculation of IEC 61000-4-30 parameters
(IEEE, 2014)
Real life network dynamic phenomena are used to demonstrate how the calculation of IEC 61000-4-30 parameters can be affected. The voltage frequency can change instantaneously at a point in the network due to a shift in the ...
Expanding industrial thinking by formalizing the industrial engineering identity for the knowledge era
(IEOM, 2017)
To date, the formal identity of the Industrial Engineer remains vague. D
ue to the broad knowledge base and
application areas made available to Industrial Engineers, pinning down the commonality has ...
Impact of magnetic activity on occurrence of ionospheric amplitude scintillation over Lagos, Nigeria
(IEEE, 2017)
With the increasing researches in the understanding of the ionospheric irregularities' behaviour near the magnetic equator, an attempt has been made to study the impact of magnetic activity on occurrence of Amplitude ...
Application of data analytics to transport corridor diagnostics and performance benchmarking
(IEEE, 2018)
Increase in exports is essential for economic growth in developing countries. In Southern Africa the development of effective multi-national trade corridors is the single biggest stumbling block to achieve this objective. ...
