Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPYROLYSIS OF EMPTY FRUIT BUNCHES: INFLUENCE OF TEMPERATURE ON THE YIELDS AND COMPOSITION OF GASEOUS PRODUCTMohamad Azri Sukiran, Loh Soh Kheang, Nasrin Abu Bakar, Choo Yuen MayWith the increasing concern on fossil fuel depletion and environmental problems, the utilization of renewable biomass resources is expected to play an important role in the future. Biomass can be converted into a variety of fuels and chemicals by different processes; one of which is pyrolysis that has been subjected to extensive research in recent years. In this study, pyrolysis … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2014 · 7,621 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Intracerebroventricular Administration of W-7, A Calmodulin Inhibitor, Attenuate the Development of Morphine Tolerance in RatsGholamreza Sepehri, Vahid Sheibani, Afrooz Azarang et al.Problem statement: The present study was performed to determine the effect of Intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of W-7, a specific calmodulin inhibitor, on the analgesic effect and development of tolerance to antinociceptive effect of acute and chronic morphine administration respectively. Approach: This study was carried out on male wistar rats, weighing 200-250 g. For acute experimental protocol, Morphine was injected intraperitonealy … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControlling the Morphology of Nano-Hybrid MaterialsAbdullah I. Al JaafariProblem statement: It is known that layer double hydroxide is one of the nano ordered layered compounds and possesses plate-like morphology if carefully crystallized. Approach: In this study, Co-Sn LDH consisting of divalent and tetravalent cations was prepared with new morphology. XRD patterns of the prepared Co-Sn LDH showed that the interlayer spacing of the LDH was 0.78 nm and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordBiomechanically Inspired Shape Memory Effect Machines Driven by Muscle like Acting NiTi AlloysRaffaella Aversa, Francesco Tamburrino, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu et al.The research shows a bioinspired approach to be adopted to design of systems based on Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), a class of Smart Materials that has in common with muscles the capability to react to an impulse (thermal for SMAs) with a contraction. The biomechanically inspired machine that is discussed in the paper refers to the antagonistic muscles pairs, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 24 Nov 2016 · 9,114 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTHE USE OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF MULTI-ROOM MODELING APPROACH-APPLICATION TO BUILDING POLLUTION TRANSPORT AND EFFICIENCY OF OFF-HOUR VENTILATIONAhmed Cherif MegriSeveral building simulation programs have been developed for design, analysis and prediction of the distribution of temperature, airflow and heat transfer between inside and outside of a building and/or between different zones of the same building. These programs are categorized as mono-zone models, multi-room models, zonal models, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and multi-zone models. The number of computer programs … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2014 · 7,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTiO2 Nanoparticles-Coated Polypropylene Copolymer as Photocatalyst on Methylene Blue Photodegradation under Solar ExposureHasniah Aliah, Mahardika Prasetya Aji, Masturi et al.Problem statement: Pollutions of water bodies by dye wastes from textile industries and other sources have become critical consideration. A photocatalytic technique using semiconductor materials such as Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) activated by lights has been considered as one economical method to solve this problem. Approach: We attached titanium dioxide on the surface of polymer grains as photocatalyc agents using a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 29 May 2012 · 7,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordObject Oriented Modeling of Thermostatically Controlled Devices for Cold Load Pick-upAlexandre de Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira Mota, Claudia Cotrim PezzutoProblem statement: During service restoration, the power level at buses can significantly differ from the one presented under steady-state conditions, demanding an amount of electric power significantly higher than the normal load. Hence, their post-outage behavior must be adequately forecasted in order to permit the development of reliable restoration plans, or to avoid inadequate actions that may lead to a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 6,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordCorrelating and Modeling of Extracted Features from PVT Images of Composites using Optical Flow Technique and Weight Elimination Algorithm Optimization [OFT-WEA]Mahmoud Zaki IskandaraniA new approach to the use and implementation of Optical Flow technique is presented. The technique extracts features from presented images as a function of reference image and produces percentage of matching between the reference and tested images. The new approach in using Optical Flow lies in replacing the motion part of the algorithm with differential time related changes in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 29 Sep 2017 · 7,328 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThermal Control of a Greenhouse by Variation in Ventilation Rate using a Fuzzy Parallel Distributed Compensation Controller with an RST Regulator in Each RuleElyes Feki, Amine Chouchaine, Abdelkader MamiProblem statement: The greenhouse has uncontrollable inputs that affect its climate, which arises the difficulty to regulate its inside temperature. The solution can be found using a multi-system approach like the Takagi-Sugeno System from which a design of a Parallel Distributed Compensation (PDC) controller is performed. However, a stability problem arises and was negotiatesd in general based on a Lyapunov … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 27 Apr 2012 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
