Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring Power Consumption for Image Processing on Android SmartphoneKhairul Muzzammil Saipullah, Ammar Anuar, Nurul Atiqah Ismail, Yewguan SooThe energy consumption of smartphones can be undertaken in multiple levels of hardware and software. Generally, there are two approaches in measuring power consumption of a smartphone application which are the measurement-based and estimation-based methods. The goal of this study is to compare the two power consumption measuring approaches in quantifying the power consumed by image processing applications in Android … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 17 Jan 2013 · 7,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPro-Active Prevention of Clone Node Attacks in Wireless Sensor NetworksK. M. Anandkumar, C. JayakumarProblem statement: Wireless mobile sensor networks are deploying large, self-organized and adaptable sets of sensors for many applications such as military, environmental, health care, remote monitoring and other applications. Unfortunately, the simplicity and low-cost of these sensors make eases cloning of compromised nodes by attackers in the network. Due to the unattended nature of wireless sensor networks, an adversary can … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 28 Aug 2012 · 7,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrying of Poultry Manure for Use as Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldThe poultry industry is one of the largest and fastest growing sectors of livestock production in the world. The estimated 2010 world flock was over 18 billion birds with a yearly manure output of 22 million tonnes. Storage and disposal of raw poultry manure have become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution. Environmental and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 5 Jul 2012 · 12,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Compressed Natural Gas Engine for Nitrogen Oxides ReductionP. M. Diaz, B. Durga PrasadProblem statement: This study describes the use of Reformer Gas (RG) to alter NOx emission in a CNG-fueled HCCI engine. Comparison with diesel, natural gas has a very high octane number (≈120) and high auto-ignition temperature (≈600°C). Composed mostly of methane, natural gas is the only common fuel to manifest relatively pure, single-stage combustion. Other fuels have stronger low-temperature reaction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 May 2012 · 7,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProperties of Fly Ash Based Coconut Fiber CompositeK. Saravana Raja Mohan, P. Jayabalan, A. RajaramanThe present paper reports the results of a study undertaken in enhancing properties of fly ash concrete composites-FMCC with locally available natural fiber. In this context a composite with fly ash, concrete and treated coconut fibers-available in plenty in rural areas of India-can be a good proposition and with this background, experimental investigation to study the effects of replacement of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2012 · 9,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Back Propagation Neural Networks for Grading Jatropha curcas Fruits MaturityZ. Effendi, R. Ramli, J. A. GhaniProblem statement: Jatropha curcas has the potential to become one of the world’s key energy crops. Crude vegetable oil, extracted from the seeds of the Jatropha plant, can be refined into high quality biodiesel. Traditional identification of Jatropha curcas fruits is performed by human experts. The Jatropha curcas fruit quality depends on type and size of defects as well as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,879 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEconomic, Social and Political Scenarios of Mexico in the Next Two DecadesJosè G. Vargas-Hernàndez, Mohammad Reza NoruziProblem statement: This research proposal aims to analyze the economic, social and political foreseeable scenarios of Mexico by the year 2030. Approach: Starting from the analyzes of the recent economic, social and political developments, to searching the trends in specific economic issues such as international commerce, energy, employment, environmental constraints; social trends such as demographic transition, fertility, population growth, aging, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPneumatic and Hydraulic Systems in Coal Fluidized Bed CombustorZ. O. Opafunso, I. I. Ozigis, I. A. AdetundeProblem statement: This study designed the pneumatic and hydraulic systems in coal fluidized bed combustor. These are fluidization of silica sand bed material, Air distributor, centrifugal fan, electric motor power drive and surface heat exchanger. Approach: The effects of increased gas velocity on silica sand and the resultant drag force formed the basic equations in fluidization. Air distributor was introduced … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison and Parametric Study of Flameless Oxidation in a Gas Turbine Using Two Kinetics MechanismsMohamed Hamdi, Hmaïed Benticha, Mohamed SassiThe so-called "Flameless Oxidation" is a novel combustion mode, in which combustion products are re-circulated and mixed into the fresh incoming fuel and air streams. This reduces the concentration of the reactants and thereby reducing the reaction rate through avoiding the formation of sharp high temperature zones in the combustion chamber. Flameless combustion has been acknowledged as one of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Resource Recovery at East Calcutta Wetland: How Safe is These?Shaon Raychaudhuri, Sayali Salodkar, M. Sudarshan, Ashoke Ranjan ThakurEast Calcutta Wetland (ECW) is an example of wise use of cities solid and liquid waste through integrated resource recovery, mainly for pisciculture, vegetable as well as paddy cultivation and manure production. Amaranthus caudatus, Amaranthus blithum and Spinacia oleracea grown at ECW were analyzed for their accumulation of elements using Energy Dispersive X Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) and compared to those … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 9,271 accessesView PDFCite
