Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermodynamic Profile of Some Heavy Metal Ions Adsorption Onto Biomaterial SurfacesMedhat A. ShakerThe adsorption of Co2+, Zn2+, Pb2+ and Hg2+ onto dried non-living biomass (NB) of different Pseudomonas strains has been investigated in detail. Maximum adsorption of these cations is achieved at optimum pH values from 3.5 to 4.5 to avoid hydrolysis, polymerization and precipitation of metal cations in the treatment solutions. The experimental data obtained at different temperatures were fitted to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 6,881 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproximate Analytical Solutions For Time-Dependent Emden-Fowler-Type Equations By Variational Iteration MethodKhaled BatihaThe main objective of the current study was to solve the time-dependent Emden-Fowler-type equation with singular behavior. The technique used here was called the variational iteration method (VIM). The advantage of this work is twofold. Firstly, the VIM reduces the computational work. Secondly, in comparison with existing techniques, the VIM is an improvement with regard to its accuracy and rapid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBreaking out: The Dynamics of Immigrant Owned BusinessesShahamak RezaeiAs far as integration policy in a Danish context is concerned a phenomenon have been observed during the last decade: Immigrant businesses are spreading rapidly in the country, dominating certain business lines in deprived inner city areas. According to registry and survey data, most immigrant businesses - and particularly those owned by immigrants from less developed countries in Asia, the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,464 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Efficient-Silicon Area MDAC SynapseZied Gafsi, Nejib Hassen, Mongia Mhiri, Kamel BesbesUsing the binary representation ΣiDi2i in the Multiplier digital to analog converter (MDAC) synapse designs have crucial drawbacks. Silicon area of transistors, constituting the MDAC circuit, increases exponentially according to the number of bits. This latter is generated by geometric progression of common ratio equal to 2. To reduce this exponential increase to a linear growth, a new synapse named … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneration of Five New Musa Hybrids With Resistance To Black Sigatoka and High YieldRicardo Hernández, Teresa Ramírez, Juan Carlos Noa-Carrazana et al.The ability to identify genetic variation is indispensable to effective management and use of genetic resources. This work is the first approach concerning to generation and genetic differentiation of new Musa hybrid lines obtained in INIVIT (Cuba), crossing Musa acuminata male diploid (AA) x female triploid (ABB), genotypes selected by their resistant character to pests and diseases. From the obtained … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of An Acoustic Temperature Transducer and its Application for Heater Temperature MeasurementMohammad A.K. Alia, Tariq Al MograbiRecent developments in temperature measurement have encouraged researchers to develop low-cost, simple structure, computerized generic transducers for environmental monitoring and industrial process control. The research presents a computerized technique which allows to measure temperature according to the variation of acoustic velocity (frequency) in a closed waveguide. Signal conditioning and processing was carried out using labVIEW (G Language) VIs. In order … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,821 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Pulsewidth Analysis in the Presence of PMD and PDL in Optical Fibers Using Neural Network AlgorithmA. Sivasubramanian, V. C. RavichandranIn long haul networks, the random birefringence induced in the optical fiber leads to a considerable Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD). Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) mainly occurs in optical components and depends on the state of polarization of optical signals. The presence of PMD and PDL causes pulsewidth narrowing and the pulsewidth reduction depends on states of polarization at which the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,055 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of the Moving Boundary Problem During Melting Process in a Rectangular Cavity Heated from BelowY. Jellouli, R. Chouikh, A. Guizani, A. BelghithWe present an analysis of the melting process in Phase Change Materials (PCM) in a horizontal cavity heated from below, driven by the coupling of transient heat conduction in the solid phase and steady state laminar natural convection in the liquid phase with one of the boundaries of the solution domain that moves. We state the problem in the Cartesian … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Thermal Explosion of Sensitized Reaction with Variable Heat LossK.S. Adegbie, F.I. AlaoThis study discusses the influence of heat loss on the critical ignition temperature and Frank-Kamenetskii parameter of a non-linear ordinary differential equation arising in thermal sensitized reaction. The reaction obeys the Arrhenius expression with temperature dependent pre-exponential factor, taking heat exchange between the reacting material and its surrounding into account. The consequences of heat loss are explored within the framework … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,929 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlow of Temperature-dependent Viscous Fluid Between Parallel Heated Walls: Exact Analytical Solutions in the Presence of Viscous DissipationK. S. Adegbie, F. I. AlaoWe examine steady incompressible flow of viscous liquids between parallel heated walls of plane Couette device. The temperature of the upper and lower walls of the device are maintained at T = Tb and T = T0 respectively. Of a particular interest are exact analytical solutions of the coupled non-linear differential equations resulting from plane Couette flow obtained for the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,483 accessesView PDFCite
