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 abstractModeling of an Industrial Riser in the Fluid Catalytic Cracking UnitMehran Heydari, Habib Ale Ebrahim, Bahram DabirProblem statement: The aim of this study is to obtain a model that can simulate the performance of an industrial fluid catalytic cracking unit in steady state. Approach: The reactions in the riser occur in a transported bed with the fluid and the solids in ideal plug flow. One of the main advantages of the model is that it does … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,117 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLand Cover Change Detection Using Texture AnalysisXiaofeng Wu, Fen Yang, Roly LishmanProblem statement: It is an important task to detect land cover changes from remotely sensed data for environmental monitoring. Although there are some applications of visual textures to the land use, they are limited to a few land cover categories with the application of one texture measure. Since land cover types are complex and often the integration of various objects, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Seven-Lump Kinetic Model in the Fluid Catalytic Cracking UnitMehran Heydari, Habib AleEbrahim, Bahram DabirProblem statement: The effective simulation of the Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) operation requires a good understanding of many factors such as, reaction kinetic, fluid dynamics and feed and catalyst effects. Approach: In this model the reactor has been considered as an isothermal riser. The reactions in the riser occur with the fluid and the solids in ideal plug flow. Because … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of L-Leucine Supplementation on Growth Performance and Carcass Characteristics of Grower-Broiler Chickens Fed Low Protein DietsE. Erwan, A. R. Alimon, A. Q. Sazili et al.Problem statement: Supplementation of broiler diets with cristalline amino acids (i.e. lysine, ethionine and threonine) may support equal broiler growth and improve overall amino acids balance and enable a reduction in CP level of diets. Approach: A trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of supplemental L-leucine in diets containing recommended levels and low crude protein (20 and 18%, respectively) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,965 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrowth, Feed Utilization and Haematology of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell,1822) Fingerlings Fed Diets Containing Different Levels of Vitamin CM. Adunni Adewolu, O. Olakunle AroProblem statement: In an effort to increase growth, improve feed utilization, reduce stress and prevent certain diseases, a 14 week feeding trial was conducted to determine the effects of different levels of dietary vitamin C (ascorbic acid) on growth, feed utilization and hematological changes in Clarias gariepinus fingerlings. Approach: Diets were formulated to contain 0, 50, 100, 150, 500, 1000 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Multi-Valued Quaternary Based Analog-to-Digital ConverterA.H.M. Zahirul Alam, Wahab Adetunji Lawal, Sheroz Khan, Muhammad Mahbubur RashidProblem statement: The design of multi-valued quaternary based Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) circuit was presented. The ADC generates multi-valued logic outputs rather than the conventional binary output system to overall reduction in circuit complexity and size. Approach: Design was implemented using pipeline ADC architecture and was simulated using model parameters based on standard 0.13 µm CMOS process. Results: Performance analysis of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,291 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Converting Secondary Forest on Tropical Peat Soil to Oil Palm Plantation on Carbon StorageCh’ng Huck Ywih, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem statement: Peat has been identified as one of the major groups of soils found in Malaysia. Sarawak as the largest state in Malaysia has the biggest reserve of peat-land. There are about 1.5 million ha of peat-land in Sarawak, which are relatively under developed. As is the case with any plant, oil palm trees do sequester carbon as they … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,039 accessesView PDFCite
