Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRutting and Fatigue Cracking Susceptibility of Polystyrene Modified AsphaltNazim Mohamed, Demitri Ramlochan, Rean MaharajThe absence of studies investigating the influence of waste Polystyrene (PS) on the performance characteristics of rutting resistance and fatigue cracking resistance of the indigenous asphaltic materials Trinidad Lake Asphalt (TLA) and Trinidad Petroleum Bitumen (TPB), has hindered the possible use of PS as a performance enhancer as observed with other asphalts from different sources thus also developing a sustainable … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 1 Jun 2017 · 7,672 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Environmental and Socio-Economic Risk Factors of Climate Vulnerability in Low-Income Settlements of Kitwe City in ZambiaGeorge Kasali, Julius Kanyembo, Mapenzi Phiri, Mainza SibajeneRecent findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have clearly shown that climate change represents an urgent and irreversible threat to human societies and the planet and especially to the social and economic development of Africa.Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine and identify the risk factors associated with climate vulnerability in selected slum settlements of Kitwe … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 25 Mar 2017 · 8,187 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSargassum Invasion of Coastal Environments: A Growing ConcernClifford Louime, Jodany Fortune, Gary GervaisFloating tropical brown macroalgae, commonly called Sargassum, besieging the Caribbean coastlines have long been a regular occurrence in the region, especially during the fall and winter months. These washed-up seaweeds are considered by scientists as an important part of the coastal ecosystem, as they serve as habitat and nurseries for numerous marine species. However, in recent years, the region has … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2017 · 12,739 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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbout Nano Fusion and Dynamic FusionFlorian Ion T. Petrescu, John Kaiser CalautitHot fusion is currently a difficult goal to accomplish due to the high temperatures required, which are difficult to achieve and also to be maintained. For these reason, it is much easier to try to achieve cold fusion, or a combined method. In this paper, the author will briefly present some original relationships for setting up a theoretical model for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 12 Mar 2016 · 11,311 accessesView PDFCite

Al-GhamdiIn general, small part of fuel chemical energy transforms to effective power in diesel engines and other parts are going as energy losses, there for many researchers, as well as engine designers, are searching to increase this part by using various methods. In this study, the effect of pure biodiesel and biodiesel-diesel fuel blends on engine energy balance, compared with … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 29 Jan 2016 · 8,117 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Sulfonated Acetone Formaldehyde (SAF) on the Firing Resistance and Aggressive Attach of SRC-SF Composite Cement PastesRanda M. Osman, S. Al-MasryThis work aimed to study the effect of the dosage of laboratory synthesized Sulfonated Acetone Formaldehyde (SAF) on the physic-mechanical characteristics and durability of SF-SRC cement pastes immersed in 4% MgCl2 or 4% MgSO4 solutions or at elevated temperatures up to 800°C. The compressive strength of thermally treatment cement pastes with 1.5% SAF increases up to 600°C, then decreases up … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2015 · 7,142 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTESTING CARBOXYMETHYL CELLULASE ACTIVITY SECRETED BY TRICHOPHYTON TERRESTRE IN CARBOXYMETHYL CELLULOSE SOLUTIONMansoor Ahmad Lone, Sanjay Sahay, Ravinder, DeepakThe techniques employed for bioconversion of cellulosic biomass to simple sugars by cellulases have a great industrial brunt. Cold-adapted microorganisms are potential resource of cold-active carboxymethyl cellulases secluded from the cold regions. In this study, Trichophyton terrestre-a rare fungal species in Indian soils, isolated from the rhizosphere of Juglans regia L. during winter season was subjugated for the production and … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2015 · 7,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINVESTIGATION STUDIES ON SUB-COOLING OF CRYOGENIC LIQUIDS USING HELIUM INJECTION METHODT. Ramesh, K. ThyagarajanIn cryogenic propellants, the sub-cooling of cryogenic propellants contained in tanks is an important and effective method for bringing down the lift-off mass of launch vehicle and thus the performance of the rocket engine is greatly improved.
