Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydraulic Flow through Engineering Bentonite-Based Containment BarriersEric Wooi Kee Loh, Devapriya Chitral WijeyesekeraThis paper presents the use of software modelling as a tool to study the impact of hydraulic "resistivity" on the contaminant transport through bentonite-based containment barriers. A sensitivity analysis on the predicted data was carried out by varying the boundary conditions as well as the hydraulic resistance to flow through varying contaminant transport parameters. Accordingly, both advective and diffusive flow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 4 Nov 2015 · 6,703 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCARING MORE BY DOING LESS? AN ENQUIRY ABOUT THE IMPACTS OF OUTSOURCING ON PATIENT CAREFederica Brunetta, Luca Giustiniano, Lucia MarchegianiThis study seeks to understand the potential impact of outsourcing on healthcare processes. By referring to a wider scope of industries and sectors, as they have been the experimental fields of most of the studies on outsourcing, we highlight the pros and cons of the externalization of activities related to patient care. Our purpose is to show and contextualize the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 24 Dec 2013 · 7,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign an Advance Computer-Aided Tool for Image Authentication and ClassificationRozita Teymourzadeh, Amirize Alpha Laadi, Yazan Samir Algnabi et al.Over the years, advancements in the fields of digital image processing and artificial intelligence have been applied in solving many real-life problems. This could be seen in facial image recognition for security systems, identity registrations. Hence a bottleneck of identity registration is image processing. These are carried out in form of image preprocessing, image region extraction by cropping, feature extraction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2013 · 6,561 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntioxidant Potential in Lipophilic and Hydrophilic Extracts from Medicinal Herbs (Salvia officinalis and Echinacea angustifolia). A Comparison Between Assays Based on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and SpectrophotometryFlavia Navari-Izzo, Riccardo Izzo, Mike F. Quartacci et al.Recently, detection of antioxidant activity of plant extracts has caught the attention of researchers. Determination of antioxidant activity is usually performed using stable free radicals. A number of assays is available for screening the antioxidant activity of food constituents, but few of these methods are applicable to lipophilic substances. EPR is the analytical technique that directly measures free radicals making … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2012 · 9,008 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSharp Transition Multiband Filter in Speech Processing Scheme for Hearing ImpairedJoseph X. Rodrigues, Lucy J. Gudino, K. R. PaiProblem statement: A simple analytical approach to the synthesis of a sharp transition, linear phase, multiband FIR filter is presented. The filter magnitude response is modeled using trigonometric functions of frequency. Approach: Employing variable density of ripple cycles in passband and stopband regions with large density of ripples cycles at the sharp transition edges, reduces the abrupt discontinuities at these … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2012 · 9,038 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentifying the Factors Affecting the Participation of Agricultural Cooperatives' MembersBagher ArayeshProblem statement: 40-year history of agricultural production cooperatives in the country shows that this type of exploitation system has faced many ups and downs during this period. First, despite the help and support by the government, the cooperative sector has not been able to play a major role in the development of the country and its share has not exceeded … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2011 · 8,934 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRed Palm Weevil (Rynchophorus Ferrugineous, Olivier) Recognition by Image Processing TechniquesSaleh Mufleh Al-Saqer, Ghulam Mubashar HassanProblem statement: Red palm weevil is the most destructive insect for palm trees all over the world. This research is part of developing an automated wireless red palm weevil detection and control system. The focus for this study was to develop red palm Weevil recognition system which can detect RPW in an image and can be used in wireless image … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 9,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Convergence-Confinement Method: Roles and Limits in Modern Geomechanical Tunnel DesignPierpaolo OresteThe convergence-confinement method, based on the analysis of the stress and strain state that develops in the rock around a circular tunnel, has been presented in this study with the two analytical solutions that have been most frequently used in recent years. Problem statement: Thanks to the increased power of electronic processors and the spread of numerical methods, the role … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 10,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality Evaluation Techniques of Processing the ECG SignalMikhled Alfaouri, Khaled DaqrouqIn this research, methods to detect and evaluate the main parameters of the ECG signal are presented in order to improve its clinical properties. Two techniques are addressed in this research, Piecewise method and the Analytical Approach. These techniques are used to determine such as: percent (rms) difference (PRD), signal-noise-ratio (SNR) and the compression ratio (CR) which are used to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRedundancy Schemes for High Availability Computer ClustersChristian K. Bassek, Samuel Pierre, Alejandro QuinteroThe primary goal of computer clusters is to improve computing performances by taking advantage of the parallelism they intrinsically provide. Moreover, their use of redundant hardware components enables them to offer high availability services. In this paper, we present an analytical model for analyzing redundancy schemes and their impact on the cluster’s overall performance. Furthermore, several cluster redundancy techniques are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,229 accessesView PDFCite
