Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroelectrical Mechanical Systems Switch for Designing Multi-Band AntennaA.H.M. Zahirul Alam, Md. Rafiqul Islam, Sheroz Khan, Muhammad Mahbubur RashidProblem statement: In this study Microelectrical Mechanical System (MEMS) switches were proposed to design a reconfigurable/multi-band antenna to replaced PIN diode switches or semiconductor switches due to lower insertion losses, good isolation, much lower intermodulation distortion, and lower power consumption. The antenna is able to operate at very high frequencies. Approach: A reconfigurable antenna that is capable to operate at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of a Graduate Environmental Science ProgramWill Focht, Talya HendersonProblem statement: Environmental science programs vary widely in their curricula and pedagogical approaches. In part, this is due to the lack of a unified agreement on field identity. However, program differences are also the product of variable program histories. Approach: This essay described the founding and subsequent history of the Environmental Science Graduate Program at Oklahoma State University, its oldest … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,010 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Polishing of Cutting-Edge Polymer-on-Glass for Pigtailing PreparationMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Fazlinda Ab-Aziz, Noor Azie Azura Mohd Arif et al.Problem statement: The high quality of cutting-edge surface is important in optical waveguide's efficiency. The perfect polishing of end surface is significant to deliver the best quality of light waves and minimize the device losses such as insertion loss and return loss. Hence, this research is concern on the parameters in polishing SU-8 polymer to increase the efficiency of waveguide. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,148 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Al3Fe5O12 Cubic Structure by Extremely Low Sintering Temperature of Sol Gel TechniqueNoorhana Yahya, Ramadan A.H. Masoud, Hanita Daud et al.Problem statement: Fabrication of nano materials particularly nano inductors at low sintering temperature remains a challenge. This study was carried out as our initial response to obtain a nano-size inductors, which is aluminium iron garnet using low sintering temperature. Approach: The aluminum iron garnet (Al3Fe5O12) nano crystals were prepared by sol-gel technique. The starting solution is a mixture of iron … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh Temperature Convective Drying of a Packed Bed with Humid Air at Different HumiditiesJ. Sghaier, S. Messai, D. Lecomte, A. BelghithProblem statement: Drying a packed bed of porous particle at high temperature with varying humidity of hot air is an attractive process. Many researches on experimental and simulation on a fixed bed drying at low and average temperature are proposed. Few studies showed drying at high temperature with humid air or using superheated steam. The latest is compared to dry … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,023 accessesView PDFCite
