Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Impact Level and Fruit Properties on Golden Delicious Apple BruisingArzhang Javadi, Ebrahim Ahmadi, Mohammad Hossein Abbaspour-Fard et al.Problem Statement: Bruise damage is a major cause of fruit quality loss. Bruises occur under dynamic and static loading when stress induced in the fruit exceeds the failure stress of the fruit tissue. Statistical bruise estimation models were constructed to calculate Golden Delicious apple bruise volume with respect to fruit properties. Approach: The regression models were built based upon impact … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Evaluation of Medium Access Schemes in 802.11 Wireless NetworksG. Singh, B. S. SohiProblem statement: Deployment of real time services over 802.11 wireless networks requires quality of service (QoS) differentiation mechanisms for different traffic types. This required investigations into the performance of the Medium access (MAC) schemes like Distributed Coordinated Function (DCF) and Enhanced DCF with respect to the stringent QoS requirements imposed by the real time services. Motivation for this research was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,141 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Issues in Jordan, Solutions and RecommendationsNidal A. Hadadin, Zeyad S. TarawnehJordan’s natural resources are limited to support population in a sustainable manner. However, its environment is exposed to a number of threats. In order to best explain Jordan’s environmental difficulties, it would be prudent to focus individually on each of these major concerns: water shortages, agriculture/land and air pollution. This study focuses on the environmental problems in Jordan and has … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 10,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Assessment of Mirex Concentrations along the Southern Shorelines of the Great Lakes, USADennis A. Apeti, Gunnar G. lauensteinMirex is a persistent and toxic polychlorinated pesticide that has compromised environmental quality in the Great Lakes region since the 1960s. As a bioaccumulative and carcinogenic compound, mirex at its current levels in Lake Ontario is a concern because of the potential for trophic level transfer and biomagnification in top predators. As a part of the NOAA’s National Status and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonic Elimination of Inverters using Blind Signal SeparationB. Justus Rabi, R. ArumugamHarmonics cause major problems in power system due to non linear loads. With the rapid growth in the utilization of the rectifier for critical loads, e.g. In computer or medical equipment the need for high quality uninterruptible power is increasing. The non-linear current drawn by the rectifier loads distort the output of UPS system. Mainly because of output filter impedance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,903 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Advance Approach to Evaluate the Performance of the TCP NetworksIbrahiem M.M. El Emary, Farouq Al TaweelIn this study, we present a new approach for estimating the performance of the TCP network depending on a mathematical formula which converts the conceptual performance parameter to a valuable one. With respect to TCP network performance, we consider the Random Early Detection (RED) and RED-Based algorithms where both RED and RED-Based follow the Active Queue Management (AQM) approach in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,530 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiosensor Based on Xanthine Oxidase for Monitoring Hypoxanthine in Fish MeatHelena S. Nakatani, Luciane V. dos Santos, Cristiano P. Pelegrine et al.An amperometric enzyme electrode for the detection of hypoxanthine in fish meat is described. The hypoxanthine sensor was prepared from xanthine oxidase immobilized by covalent binding with glutaraldehyde and bovine serum albumin on a nafion-coated platinum disc electrode. The responses for hypoxanthine were obtained in 0.1 mol L-1 phosphate buffer (pH 7.0), at potential of 600mV vs Ag/AgCl. This biosensor … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 8,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnergy-Efficient Ant Colony-Based k-Hop Clustering and Transmission Range Assignment Protocol for Connectivity Construction in Dense Wireless Sensor NetworksGokou Hervé Fabrice Diédié, Boko Aka, Michel BabriConnectivity construction is the main phase of a communication-oriented topology control process. It consists of improving the current network physical topology while preserving important properties such as connectivity and symmetry. In this paper, we address the problem of combining two of the techniques commonly used for this purpose in networks composed of a large number of energy constrained wireless sensor-nodes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 19 Mar 2018 · 7,796 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Susceptibility of Bovine Subclinical Mastitis and During Milk Separation Isolates and the Accompanying Hygienic PracticesSultan Farag Nagati, Safaa Khamis HassanMilk is considered one of the most perfect foods for humans and milk contains many nutrients. Subclinical mastitis has been counted as a great problem for dairy manufacture. The disease causes severe economic losses due to lower milk production, treatment costs and increased labor and milk retained for human consumption after treatment and premature culling. A cross-sectional study was conducted … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 7 Apr 2021 · 6,511 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,402 accessesView PDFCite
