InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractDiabetes Group Visit in a Primary Care SettingSelma Mujezinovic RochesterThe group visits models one innovation in the field of chronic illness management that shows promise in meeting the growing demands for this type of care. Patients get significant peer and healthcare provider support during group visits. Group visits typically last 90 min and occur on a regularly scheduled basis. The study design was a quasi-experimental pre-post-test with a comparison … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2017 · 7,235 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnivariate Generalized Additive Models for Simulated Stationary and Non-Stationary Generalized Pareto DistributionMostafa Behzadi, Mohd Bakri Adam, Anwar FitriantoGeneralized additive models as a predictor in regression approaches, are made up over cubic spline basis and penalized regression splines. Despite of linear predictor in GLM, generalized additive models use a sum of smooth functions of covariates as a predictor. The data which are used in this study have generalized Pareto distribution and have been simulated by inversion method. The … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2017 · 7,434 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis on Milk Fatty Acid Profile in Dairy CattleC. Mitchell, O. ALZahal, M.M. Or-Rashid et al.The objective of this experiment was to examine the effect of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) on milk fatty acid (FA) profiles with emphasis on odd-chain and branched-chain FA. Sixteen multiparous Holstein dairy cows (618±35 kg of body weight, 221±32 days in milk) were used in a randomized complete-block design. During week 1, all cows received a high-forage diet (90% chopped … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2016 · 7,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeficient Reasoning for Dark Matter in GalaxiesJames Q. Feng, C.F. GalloIn this universe, not all of the matter around us can be readily seen. The further an object is away from us and the less luminous it is, the less visible it becomes. Just by looking at an object is usually difficult, if not impossible, to tell the amount of mass it contains. But astronomers have been using the measured … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 14 Sep 2015 · 8,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHEAT INTENSITY OF URBAN BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN HOT HUMID CLIMATE REGIONBeta Paramita, Hiroatsu FukudaLarge numbers of inhabitants in a dense area require land coverage for sheltering purposes. The anthropogenic heat emission potentially reduces ventilation of urban areas and significantly brings changes in air temperature. This study is aimed at finding the correlations between urban form and the alteration of urban microclimate in different land-uses. This study has been carried out in Bandung, Indonesia, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 16 Apr 2014 · 7,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTIVE HEURISTIC ALGORITHM FOR DYNAMIC ROUTING AND BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT UNDER QUALITY OF SERVICE CONSTRAINTS IN MULTISTAGE INTERCONNECTION NETWORKSR. Deepalakshmi, S. RajaramToday, Internet of Things (IoT) has introduced abundant bandwidth consumption and necessities in multimedia communications from online games to video-conferencing applications with the constraint of QoS requirements from time to time. The expected rapid proliferation of services would require performance unprecedented in the currently available best-effort routing algorithms. In, particular, the present routing mechanisms are based on the best-effort paradigm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 7 Jan 2014 · 7,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytic and Nonlinear Prognostic for Vehicle Suspension SystemsAbdo Abou Jaoude, Khaled El-TawilPredicting Remaining Useful Lifetime (RUL) of industrial systems becomes currently an important aim for industrialists knowing that the expensive failure can occur suddenly. As the classical strategies of maintenance are not efficient and practical because they neglect the evolving product state and environment, the recent prognostic approaches try to fill this gap. This approach shows to be important in ensuring … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2013 · 7,526 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVertical Profile of C, N, P, K and Radionuclides in Soil Collected from Highland Tea Plantation AreasZaini Hamzah, Seh Datul Riduan, Ahmad SaatProblem statement: Cameron Highlands is a well known agricultural area in Peninsular Malaysia. Long term usage of fertilizer has caused accumulation of major elemental component in the soil. This accumulation will cause enrichment of the nutrient in the catchment located at downstream of the river through runoff. Approach: Two tea plantations on the upstream with hilly condition plantation were selected … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 11 Oct 2011 · 7,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRoughness Effect on an Unsteady Flow in Pipelines by Profilometry and Imaging TechniquesMabrouk Benkhedimallah, Rabah Zegadi, Mohamed BouafiaProblem statement: Currently the aero dynamical calculation in gas pipes is carried out under the assumption of steady state conditions. However real steady in a network is scarcely quasisteady. Approach: The unsteady state is governed by non-linear partial differential equations leading to mathematical difficulties. And there are fore gas pipe dimensions are computed at steady state under extreme conditions. Results: … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 8,157 accessesView PDFCite
