Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Stochastic and Deterministic Methods for Mapping Environmental Noise from Opencast QuarriesDario Lippiello, Guido Alfaro Degan, Mario PinzariAn accurate mapping of the acoustic spatial variability generated by quarrying plants constitutes an important step in the assessment of the environmental compatibility of the extraction site with the surrounding area. This paper refers to the results of a study comparing performances obtained by stochastic and deterministic methods to determine the acoustic climate of the areas surrounding opencast quarries. To … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 28 Mar 2016 · 7,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTelomere Length Measurement by Quantitative Real-time PCR: A Molecular Marker for Human Age PredictionNaglaa F. Alhusseini, Abdelmonem G. MadbolyThe fact that telomere shortening occurs with aging leads to the hypothesis that a correlation could be made between Telomere Length (TL) and suspect age. This study aimed to assess if TL can be used as an investigational tool to predict human age through developing a formula based on this correlation with accuracy suitable to be applied in forensic practice. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2016 · 8,011 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Prototype of a Small-Scale Solar Power Plant: dynamic Simulation and Thermoeconomic AnalysisAnnamaria Buonomano, Francesco Calise, Maria VicidominiThe paper presents an innovative prototype of a solar power plant, purposely designed for small-scale applications such as residential and/or small commercial buildings. The system consists of 10 kWe Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) plant and innovative solar thermal collectors. In particular, 235 m2 of flat-plate evacuated solar collectors are designed to heat diathermic oil up to 180°C. A variable volume … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2016 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessIn the abstractCan Anthocyanins be Part of the Metal Homeostasis Network in Plant?Marco LandiAnthocyanins are a class of flavonoids with a high level of diversification and likely the most studied pathway of secondary metabolism in Plantae. Anthocyanins have raised a growing interest due to the huge variability of their chemical structures and the more new anthocyanins are isolated from plants, the more questions on their evolutionary and ecological meaning they raise. Antioxidant, photoprotection … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2015 · 8,573 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of Human Induced Vibrations on FootbridgesC. Maraveas, Z.C. Fasoulakis, K.D. TsavdaridisAn extensive literature review of human induced vibrations that flexible footbridges experience is addressed in this study. Qualitative information is comprehensively included herein to provide common methods and code recommendations for the practicing engineers. The parameters affecting the dynamic response of footbridges excited by pedestrians are highlighted. In particular, the synchronous lateral excitation is addressed. This investigation can be valuable … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Oct 2015 · 8,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSedimentology and Ichnology of Late Oligocene Delta Front Reservoir Sandstone Deposit, Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Niger DeltaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiSedimentological and ichnological study of cored reservoir sands correlated with wireline logs between two wells, 0.8 km distance apart along dip direction, enabled vertical and cross sectional facies variability assessment aimed at determining intra sand-body continuity in longitudinal or down-dip direction; and sub-environments of deposition and factors that controlled depositional processes. Ten lithofacies described 62 meters cores of the reservoir … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 30 Jul 2015 · 7,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Evaluation of Sugarcane Orange Rust for First Clonal Stage of the CP Cultivar Development ProgramDuli Zhao, R. Wayne Davidson, Miguel Baltazar, Jack C. ComstockConsistent development of high-yielding sugarcane (a complex hybrid of Saccharum spp.) cultivars with resistance or tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses is critical to commercial sugarcane production. Currently, orange rust (caused by Puccinia kuehnii E.J. Butler) is a big challenge for the sugarcane production in Florida, USA. A better understanding of sugarcane genotypic variability in response to orange rust disease … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2015 · 7,903 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplying Information Theory Analysis for the Solution of Biomedical Data Processing ProblemsDavid Blokh, Ilia StamblerThe use of information-theoretical methods can be highly valuable for the solution of biomedical data processing problems. Some of the problems that can be solved by those methods include: The assessment of the influence of diagnostic parameters, biomarkers and risk factors, on the emergence of disease; the discretization of diagnostic parameters; the analysis of a combined influence of a group … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2015 · 9,638 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrice Volatility of Grains: Relationship with Crude Oil Price Using CCC-Multivariate GARCH ModelAreerat Todsadee, Hiroshi Kameyama, Shoichi ItoAgricultural commodities prices have increased and become significantly more volatile during the past few years periods. The high agricultural commodity prices in recent years have raised the question of whether or not volatility is increasing and leading to more frequent extreme price swings. It is very important to quantify price variability of agricultural products. This paper measures the volatility of … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2015 · 6,645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvidences for the Role of Melatonin as a Protective Additive During Buffalo Semen FreezingMohamed El-Raey, M. R. Badr, Z. M. Rawash, G. M. DarwishTill now, the exact role of melatonin in male infertility hasn’t been fully discovered. Moreover, the intracellular signaling pathways activated by melatonin in buffalo spermatozoa especially on the level of cryopreservation process haven’t been reported. The current study aimed simply to clarify the precise role of this hormone during buffalo semen cryopreservation. Semen samples were obtained randomly from 6 fertile … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2014 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
