Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUncertainty Analysis of Time of Concentration Equations based on First-Order-Analysis (FOA) MethodAsghar AzizianThe time of concentration (Tc) is one the most important time parameters to predict the response of a catchment to a given rainfall and plays a key role in the hydrologic design and rainfall-runoff modeling. There are a huge number of empirical/semi-empirical equations for estimation of Tc and depending on several parameters such as rainfall attributes, topographic and land cover … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2018 · 9,303 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Integrated Approach to Modelling of Flood Hazards in the Rapidly Growing City of Osogbo, Osun State, NigeriaSuleiman Abdul-Azeez Adegboyega, Oluchi Christiana Onuoha, Komolafe Akinola Adesuji et al.In recent times, the swift and uncoordinated urban expansion in the medium sized city of Osogbo has increasingly encroached on the environmental sensitive areas. This uncoordinated exploitation of the ecological fragile areas for urban development has triggered urban flooding, which poses serious threat to human lives and properties in the city. This study therefore utilized geospatial technologies to generate flood … …Space Science International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2018 · 13,835 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransportation EngineeringRelly Victoria V. Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion T. PetrescuThe shipments were absolutely necessary at all times, but still have polluted and damaged the environment. The technique of transport or the engineering of transport is the application of the principles of technology and scientific findings to the planning, design check, operation and plan management for any mode of transport, in order to ensure that the conditions of safety, efficiency, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 20 Jul 2017 · 8,683 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Household Wastes in D.R. Congo, a Case Study of LubumbashiMartin T. Mpinda, Sissou Zakari, Olusegun K. Abass et al.The insufficient supervision of household solid waste is a notorious problem in DR. Congo cities. Besides, solid waste management in Lubumbashi has been very rudimentary and unsystematic. This study aims to quantify and characterize the household solid waste in two Lubumbashi municipalities. For more than 50 years after independence from colonialism, the city trailed direct discharge of waste on exposed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 10 Jun 2017 · 8,224 accessesView PDFCite

Tautenov et al.This article presents the results of sorghum and pearl millet studies conducted in order to develop the technology of their cultivation as a new forage crops for livestock in arid areas of Kazakhstan. The article presents data on the effect of seeding rates and term of sowing on seeds germination and survival of plants and a crop of verdurous masses … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2015 · 7,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLead in Meat and Meat Products Consumed by the Population in SlovakiaLukáčová Anetta, Golian JozefThe presence of heavy metals in food is the consequence of atmosphere contamination of polluted soil, waters and results in contaminated feed with heavy metals. The lead concentrations depend on the environmental conditions and the food production methods. The monitoring of lead concentration in meat is important for human health. The aim of this study was to determine the level … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOTRANSFORMATION OF TEXTILE DYES: A BIOREMEDIAL ASPECT OF MARINE ENVIRONMENTR. S. Shertate, Prakash ThoratPresence of huge amount of salts in the wastewater of textile dyeing industry is one of the major limiting factors in the development of an effective biotreatment system for the removal of dyes from textile effluents. Large number of textile industries are located on the coastal areas due to ease of transport to the various places in world and help … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 12 Nov 2014 · 7,385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractELECTROLYSIS OF SWINE MANURE EFFLUENTS USING THREE DIFFERENT ELECTRODES Fe-Fe, Al-Al AND Fe-AlS. Rahman, M. S. BorhanSwine effluent with high organic strength need to be treated to make it suitable for applying to crop/pasture fields, or discharging to any waterways. Electrocoagulation is a relatively simpler and cheaper technique over biological and chemical treatment methods currently used to treat high-strength industrial and municipal wastewater. The performance of an electrocoagulation system mainly depends on the pH, Electrical Conductivity … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 Oct 2014 · 9,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Image Generation Algorithm Using Fractals and Chaos TheoryK. Thamizhchelvy, G. GeethaAn Efficient Image Generation Algorithm is proposed. It generates Message Authentication Image (MAI) by using Fractals and chaos theory. The fractal images are generated by using Iterated Function System (IFS) techniques. We implemented and generated the fractal images exploring the properties of chaos. Chaos is an unpredictable behavior arises in a dynamical system so that the future behavior is not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 10 Sep 2014 · 7,432 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING THE HABITAT SUITABILITY OF TWO DIFFERENT ARTIFICIAL WETLAND HABITATS USING AVIAN COMMUNITY STRUCTURESM. Zakaria, M. N. RajparArtificial wetlands have become highly important habitat for a variety of bird species particularly waterbirds due to loss and degradation of natural wetlands. Avian community structures in two artificial wetland habitats i.e., man-made marsh and lake were investigated to identify the suitability of the habitats for avian species, habitat preference and food resources. Distance sampling point count method detected 35272 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 24 May 2014 · 7,437 accessesView PDFCite
