Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Risk Factors on Cardiovascular Vascular Diseases in MauritiusCheika Jahangeer, Maleika Heenaye-Mamode Khan, Naushad Mamode Khan, Shehzada JahangeerProblem statement: Recent studies provided clear evidences that Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) and risk factors of CVD are on the rise worldwide. It has been shown that countries which are in the developing stage are more at risk. Mauritius, being an island in its full swing of development and economic boom, is facing a huge problem in terms of health hazards, … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,809 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPullout Characterizations of Various Steel Fibers Embedded in Very High-Strength ConcreteSameer Hamoush, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Toney Cummins, Brian ZornigProblem statement: There is a real need for a fundamental understanding of bond and bond mechanisms in the newly developed Very-High-Strength-Concrete (VHSC) materials. The interfacial steel fiber/VHSC matrix bond tests are needed to characterize VHSC and to aid in the development of analytical models that describe bond behavior of this new material. Approach: This research investigated bond-slip characteristics of four … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInjection Molding of Titanium Alloy Implant For Biomedical Application Using Novel Binder System Based on Palm Oil DerivativesR. Ibrahim, M. Azmirruddin, M. Jabir et al.Problem statement: Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) has been widely used as an implant for biomedical application. In this study, the implant had been fabricated using high technology of Powder Injection Molding (PIM) process due to the cost effective technique for producing small, complex and precision parts in high volume compared with conventional method through machining. Approach: Through PIM, the binder system … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,515 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Trujillo Algorithm for Analyzing of StructuresH. Hashamdar, Z. IbrahimProblem statement: The Trujillo algorithm is indirect method and has been used in this study. The approach is based upon the principle of conservation of energy. Approach: Cable structures are very light and flexible and they undergo appreciable deflections when subjected to external loading. Results: Since all the main load-carrying members in cable structures are usually in tension, there are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModified Center Interpolation Net for Classification of Composite Structures Tested Using Low Frequency Electronic TappingMahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: Most exhaustive NDT techniques require large capital equipment, are difficult to apply to complex geometric structures and, above all, are time-consuming to use and some take a considerable time to complete. As a solution to the problems associated with NDT applications, there is a need to establish an intelligent analysis system that supports a portable testing environment, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrostructure Affecting Cutting Quality in Fine Blanking ProcessBopit BubphachotProblem statement: Fine blanking process is a high precision process and worldwide in developed countries. Since specimen does not occur fracture on the cutting edge and it is not necessary to decorate again in the finishing process for the fine blanking which can be reduced some operation steps. For example, if chain wheel of motorcycle is produced by conventional blanking, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReconciling the Bio Safety Protocol and the WTO Regime: Problems, Perspectives and PossibilitiesP. G. Gayathri, Reshma R. KurupProblem statement: The issue of regulation of international trade in Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) evokes a very unique, passionate and emotional debate between environmentalists and businesses. At the conceptual level itself, like most other multilateral environmental agreements, the Cartagena Protocol appears to be incompatible with the WTO Rules. Approach: Further, since there is precious little scientific certainty on the actual … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening Three Strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Prediction of Biosurfactant-Producer StrainGholamreza Dehghan-Noudeh, Mohammad Hasan Moshafi, Effat Behravan et al.Problem statement: The chemical surfactants have some disadvantages; especially, toxicity and no biodegradability. Approach: Biosurfactants were the structurally diverse group of surface-active molecules synthesize by micro-organisms. The microbial surfactants were interesting, because of the biodegradable and have many applications in industry, agriculture, medicine. Results: In the present study, the production of biosurfactant by three strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PTCC 1074, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of the Crack Propagation for Solid MaterialsMiloud Souiyah, A. Muchtar, Abdulnaser Alshoaibi, A. K. AriffinProblem statement: The use of fracture mechanics techniques in the assessment of performance and reliability of structure is on increase and the prediction of crack propagation in structure play important part. The finite element method is widely used for the evaluation of SIF for various types of crack configurations. Source code program of two-dimensional finite element model had been developed, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFemtotechnology: Nuclear Matter with Fantastic PropertiesA. A. BolonkinProblem statement: At present the term 'nanotechnology' is well known-in its' ideal form, the flawless and completely controlled design of conventional molecular matter from molecules or atoms. Such a power over nature would offer routine achievement of remarkable properties in conventional matter and creation of metamaterials where the structure not the composition brings forth new powers of matter. But even … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,681 accessesView PDFCite
