EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractVolume 3: SGAMR is Always on Track!Chiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Flavio StochinoThe year 2019 represents a new growing step for SGAMR, that starts to publish “continuously” all the accepted papers, once they are subjected to positive, blinded peer-review process. This is a further effort to improve the service for the contributors and for the readers, given that the efficiency of the journal to share knowledge can be maximized.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach to Model Concentrating PV Cells Under Non-Uniform IlluminationHang Zhou, Yuehong Su, Gang Pei et al.Concentrating PV (CPV) cells are often designed optimally depending on solar concentrator characteristics and operating conditions to ensure the best system performance. Before reaching a PV cell, solar radiation may experience some optical losses caused by the different physical phenomena occurring in a solar concentrator. A particular issue with the CPV technology is the non-uniformity of the concentrated radiation, which … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2017 · 7,144 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent Health Service Experience as a Predictor of Patient Satisfaction: Evidence from TurkeyEvren AYRANCI, Nazmiye ATALAYThis study scrutinizes effects of current health service experience on patient satisfaction. The investigation included 337 participants, who were actively receiving health services from the largest public hospitals’ clinics in Turkey. An examination of the experience’s and satisfaction’s statistical structures is made; therefore, exploratory factor and reliability analyses were applied. A structural equation modeling was used consecutively to determine the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Jul 2019 · 7,456 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGlobal Supply Chain Risk ManagementMouad Ben-Faress, Abdelmajid Elouadi, Driss GreteteToday’s global supply chain structure and organizations are characterized by high physical volume variation, information and financial flow exchanges with several amount of data from supplier to the final customer, as a consequence of Market changes and customer behavior impacting the supply chain and its different actors. As part of a systematic approach we will start our research by studying … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 8 Apr 2019 · 7,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConvergence of Renormalization Group Transformations of Gibbs Random FieldFarida Kachapova, Ilias KachapovStatistical mechanics describes interaction between particles of a physical system. Particle properties of the system can be modelled with a random field on a lattice and studied at different distance scales using renormalization group transformation. Here we consider a thermodynamic limit of a lattice model with weak interaction and we use semi-invariants to prove that random fields transformed by renormalization … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,016 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Methylene Blue Dye Adsorption from Polluted Water Using Oleander Plant (Al Defla) Tissues as SorbentRajab Abu-El-Halawa, Sami A. Zabin, Hamzah H. Abu-SittahThe main purpose of this research was to investigate the ability of Oleander plant (Al Defla) tissues to adsorb Methylene Blue (MB) dye from polluted water. The experiments were carried out through batch-adsorption technique to investigate the influence of the following experimental parameters on adsorption process namely, adsorbent quantity, MB initial concentration, adsorbent particles size, ionic strength, pH and temperature. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,004 accessesView PDFCite
