Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPressure-sensitivity Effects on Toughness Measurements of Compact Tension Specimens for Strain-hardening SolidsAbdulhamid A. Al-AbduljabbarThe path-independent J-integral is used as a fracture prediction criterion for loading beyond the elastic limit as Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) cannot be applied. While J was originally defined from an energy perspective, it was demonstrated that it could be inferred from load-displacement diagrams. Therefore, the Compact Tension (CT) specimen testing is used to compute J for materials. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Case-Control Study of Effect of Opium Addiction on Myocardial InfarctionBehzad Azimzade-Sarwar, Gholamreza Yousefzade, Shahin NarooeyIschemic Heart Disease (IHD) and Myocardial Infarction (MI) are one of the most important disease which cause mortality and morbidity. Opioid peptides and exogenous opioid such as morphine are known to exert an important cardiovascular effect. To study effect of opium addiction to incidence of MI. A Case-Control study was designed in Kerman university. 150 patients with MI was admitted … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 7,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Elliptic Function Arising from the Theta Functions and Dedekind's η-FunctionIsmet Yildiz, Neslihan UyanikIt's a reality that there is a relationship between the sigma function of Weierstrass and theta functions. An elliptic function can be set up using the theta functions just as it can be astablished with the help of sigma function of Weierstrass and two relations between the Dedekind's h-function and - theta function were established by the using characteristic values … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,360 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Fuzzy Approach for Integrated Measure of Object-Oriented Software TestabilityVandana Gupta, K. K. Aggarwal, Yogesh SinghFor large software systems, testing phase seems to have profound effect on the overall acceptability and quality of the final product. The success of this activity can be judged by measuring the testability of the software. A good measure for testability can better manage the testing effort and time. Different Object Oriented Metrics are used in measurement of object-oriented testability … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Probability Curves Obtained from 2 Quantitative Allergen-specific IgE Assays: FEIA and 3gAllergyTMT. M. Li, T. Chuang, S. M. Li, D. Hovanec-BurnsThe validity and benefit of probability curves in allergen-specific IgE (sIgE) testing and their applicability to more than a few allergens are still pending. One study[1] presented probability curves for 4 food allergens and proposed decision points to rule out the need for food challenges in his clinic. Since then, such cutoffs were reported by Boyano-Martinez[2] to be dependent on … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTypology of Organisational CommitmentRajendran Muthuveloo, Raduan Che RoseThis paper presents a contemporary review of the term commitment from an organisational perspective. The paper highlights the typology of employee commitment and of organisational commitment. Organisational commitment is a subset of employee commitment, which is comprised of work commitment, career commitment and organisational commitment. Organisational commitment, in turn, can be subdivided into affective commitment, continuance commitment and normative commitment. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 10,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Comparison between Structural Element of Building Systems in MalaysiaM. R. Abdul Kadir, W. P. Lee, M. S. Jaafar et al.The Industrialized Building System (IBS) was introduced in Malaysia in 1966, but it failed to establish itself on a continuous basis though there has been a sustained large market for residential projects even since. One of the reasons behind this shortcoming is the lack of scientific data on labor productivity that could convince policy maker. Hence, the objective of this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Fuzzy Neural Networks for the Detection of Tumors in Medical ImagesN. Benamrane, A. Freville, R. NekkacheIn this study, we propose an approach to detect suspect zones or tumors in medical images. The idea is to define with precision the existence of different kinds of lesions using a hybrid system, which combines Fuzzy Neural Networks and Expert System. After applying a method of image segmentation to extract regions (by region growing algorithm or by mathematical morphology … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOOST: An Object Oriented Tool for Satellite Orbit DesignA. A. Salem, M. Zaki, A. A. WahdanIn this study the problems of satellite orbit design and simulation are tackled and an object oriented satellite tool OOST is developed. The tool with its three main modules enables the user to plan and design different satellite missions. It performs all orbital calculations needed, simulates the target orbit and performs analysis on the current active satellite(s). The simulation module … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManpower Consideration to Reduce Development Time for New Model in Automotive IndustryN. M.Z.N. Mohamed, H. Y. Sastra, S. M. Sapuan et al.A study of manpower consideration to reduce development time for new model in automotive industry is presented in this study. The approach taken are by studying the existing practice in car development and suggesting various ways for manpower improvement such as through early involvement and input from manufacturing personnel, the proper job scope structure, proper training to the new staffs … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,976 accessesView PDFCite
