Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthetic Pyrethroid Resistance in Field Strains of Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Tamil Nadu, South IndiaP. Duraimurugan, A. RegupathyResistance to synthetic pyrethroids was diagnosed in the field population of American bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) from Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, South India during 2003-2004 cropping seasons. A Discriminating Dose (DD) bioassay technique was used to monitor fortnightly changes in resistance at Coimbatore where number of crops served as host plants for this pest. The resistance level of various synthetic pyrethroids … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,860 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Simulation of a Turbulent Lean, Premixed Combustion with an Explicit Algebraic Stress ModelWilliam Vicente, Martín Salinas-Vázquez, Eliseo Martínez, Alejandro RodríguezA computational model is used in the present paper to study the influence of the turbulence modeling on the chemical species in a turbulent lean premixed flame. The simulated configuration is about a lean, premixed bluff-body-stabilized flame with a recirculation zone. To achieve the objectives, three different models were used for turbulence modeling as listed next: 1) standard k-ε, 2) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,319 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRetrieving Information from the Invisible Web Using Mobile AgentsFabien-Kenzo Sato, Samuel Pierre, Roch H. GlithoThis study proposes a model of information retrieval on the invisible Web by using the mobile agent paradigm. The developed architecture uses the power of a search engine to provide a list of sites of the invisible Web which are likely to be relevant and launches a dynamic search on these sites, thanks to mobile agents. To compare and experiment … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Evaluation of Aqueous and Freeze Dried Antigen for Sero-diagnosis of VL and PKDL Cases by DATSanjiva Bimal, Shubhankar K. Singh, P. K. Sinha et al.The efficacy of aqueous and freeze dried (FD) antigen was evaluated by direct agglutination test (DAT) for sero-diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis. A total of 16 samples collected from 5 confirmed Kala-azar (KA) cases, 6 cases 2 each of filariasis, malaria, leprosy and 5 non-endemic healthy subjects were used in determination of cut off titre of both the antigens in DAT. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpression, Purification and Activity Assay of Two New Recombinant Antagonists of Fibrinogen ReceptorJianbo Yang, Jia Yao, Kun Yang et al.The gene sequence of Decorsin which is extracted from a kind of North American leeches was synthesized. Two recombinant proteins, Annexin V plus Decorsin (AnnV-D39) and Annexin V plus the carboxyl terminal 27 amino acid residues of Decorsin(AnnV-D27), were constructed. And a 10 amino acids linker peptide of GGGGSGGGGS was inserted between Annexin V and Decorsin in AnnV-D39. Using pET-28(a+) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarthquake Airbags, New Devices to Save Lives in Earthquakes, Tornados and Similar Disasters Resulting from Building CrashesAmir Hashem Shahidi BonjarEarthquake Airbag (EA) is a new terminology being introduced for the earthquake literature of the world. According to literature surveys, this terminology has not been used previously. Based on many scientific reports, fatality rates are lower in vehicles equipped with airbags than unequipped ones. Accordingly, it was postulated that similar structures can be adopted in buildings to protect people and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,532 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScheme for ISDN/DECT Wireless Internetworking and VerificationMaher Dababneh, Ibrahim QatawnehA novel scheme to access the basic rate service of the Integrated Service Digital Network (ISDN) using the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone (DECT) radio interface standard is presented. The S-interface in the ISDN reference configuration has been used for the ISDN interface and the unprotected class 0 transmissions are used for the DECT interface. The design of a state of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effectiveness of Quality Circle Participation in Industrial and Service Organizations in MalaysiaT. R. Abo-Alhol, M. Y. Ismail, S. M. Sapuan, M. M. HamdanQuality Circle (QC) proponents suggest a wide array of positive results when this participation technique is used either in manufacturing or in service sector. This study is to determine whether QCs in one sector are performing more effectively than the other. This assessment includes technical aspects, length of participation, training, members' feelings about QCs, job satisfaction and job commitment. The … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 6 Mar 2005 · 7,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWind Speed Simulation Using WaveletsA. H. Siddiqi, S. Khan, S. RehmanMost of the renewable energy sources have direct or indirect link with the sun. Wind is also a form of solar energy. It is initiated by uneven heating of the atmospheric air by the sun, affected from the topography and surface roughness of the earth's surface and rotation of the earth. The earth's terrain, water surfaces and vegetation cover modifies … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,553 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Particle Separation in Bends of Rectangular Cross-sectionBingtao ZhaoA new theoretical model for predicting particle separation efficiency in bends is developed based on the investigation of flow pattern, the critical particle size separation theory and the boundary layer separation theory. The radial particle concentration gradient, instead of the usually assumed uniform radial particle concentration within the bends, is considered in this mathematical model. The local particle concentration and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,860 accessesView PDFCite
