Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHeterogeneous Modeling, Identification and Simulation of Activated Sludge ProcessesIbrahim H. Mustafa, G. Ibrahim, Ali Elkamel, A. H. ElahwanyProblem statement: The activated sludge system is a complex dynamic process and must account for a large number of reactions between large numbers of components. There is necessity for simulation models which describe the dynamic behavior of the activated sludge process. The application of the models in most treatment plants is limited due to lack of appropriate data acquisition and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOptimal Location of Static Var Compensator Device for Damping OscillationsM. W. Mustafa, N. MagajiProblem statement: Static Var Compensators (SVC) devices are used to improve voltage and reactive power conditions in AC systems. An additional task of SVC is to increase transmission capacity as result of power oscillation damping. The effectiveness of this controller depends on its optimal location and proper signal selection in the power system network. A residue factor had been proposed … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,371 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStudy of the Drying Kinetics of Lemon GrassMustafa Ibrahim, K. Sopian, W. R.W. DaudProblem statement: The thin- layer drying experiments were conducted to examine the effect of drying air temperature and humidity on the drying kinetics. Approach: A model to estimate the drying behavior of Lemon grass was developed). Results: Four different thin-layer drying models were compared with respect to their coefficient of determination (R2), Mean Bias Error (MBE) and Root Mean Square … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,432 accessesView PDFCite

Al-Ghanem, Islam M. Massad, Mahmoud M. Al-Mustafa et al.Problem statement: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the onset and duration of sensory and motor block as well as operative analgesia and adverse effects of Dex Metedo Midine (DXM) or fentanyl given intrathecally with plain 0.5% bupivacaine for spinal anesthesia. Approach: seventy six patients classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) status I, II and III scheduled … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 14,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesModeling of Activated Sludge Floc CharacteristicsIbrahim H. Mustafa, G. Ibrahim, Ali Elkamel, A. H. ElahwanyProblem Statement: The activated sludge system needs to improve the operational performance and to achieve more effective control. To realize this, a better quantitative understanding of the biofloc characteristics is required. The objectives of this study were to: (i) Study the biofloc characteristics from kinetics-mass transfer interaction point of view by quantification of the weight of the aerobic portion of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHistogram of Intensity Feature Extraction for Automatic Plastic Bottle Recycling System Using Machine VisionSuzaimah Ramli, Mohd Marzuki Mustafa, Aini Hussain, Dzuraidah Abdul WahabCurrently, many recycling activities adopt manual sorting for plastic recycling that relies on plant personnel who visually identify and pick plastic bottles as they travel along the conveyor belt. These bottles are then sorted into the respective containers. Manual sorting may not be a suitable option for recycling facilities of high throughput. It has also been noted that the high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSecured Requirement Specification Framework (SRSF)R.A. Khan, K. MustafaGenerally, software engineers are poorly trained to elicit, analyze and specify security requirements, often confusing them with the architectural security mechanisms that are traditionally used to fulfill them. One of the most ignored parts of a security-enhanced software development lifecycle is the security requirements engineering process. Security should begin at the requirements level and must cover both overt functional security … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Effect of Post-Mating Progesterone Supplement on Pregnancy and Lambing Rates of Ewes Bred Out-of-seasonMustafa Q. Husein, Mohammed M. Ababneh, Jomana F. HijaziThe objective of this experiment was to determine whether post-mating progesterone (P4) supplement improves pregnancy and lambing rates in ewes bred during the seasonal anestrous period. In June, 39 synchronized to estrus Awassi ewes were allowed with four harnessed fertile rams immediately following CIDR-G device removal (day 0 and 0 hour). Five days following ram introduction, ewes were randomly assigned … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Effects of Short or Long Term FGA Treatment with or without eCG on Reproductive Performance of Ewes Bred Out-of-seasonMustafa Q. Husein, Mohammed M. Ababneh, Dia S. Abu-RumanThe objective was to evaluate the effects of intravaginal FGA sponges inserted for 4 or 12 days with or without eCG on reproductive performance of ewes out-of-season. Forty-eight anestrous ewes were assigned in equal numbers to four treatments in a 2x2 factorial design. Ewes were administered with FGA sponges on May 17 for 12 days (12-day-FGA-eCG and 12-day-FGA groups, n= … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
