Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of Frictional Contact Problem During the Process of Metal WorkingNicolae PopThe quasistatic contact problem with dry friction, contributes to the achievement of a numerical model for the simultaneity of different kinds of viscoplastic, incompressible materials forming. Starting from a variational formulation of the problem, which extends the static case, a perturbed Lagrangean, discrete formulation within the framework of finite element method is obtained. On the contact boundary we have used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,293 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHIV-1 Infection and Central Monoamine NeurotransmittersAdarsh M. Kumar, J. B. Fernandez, Irina Borodowsky et al.Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) enters the central nervous system (CNS) shortly after infection and gets localized in different brain regions, leading to various types of neuropathological problems. It has been hypothesized that HIV-1 infection mediated neuropathogenesis may also adversely affect the activity of the central monoamine neurotransmitters systems, such as dopamine (DA), and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin), resulting in … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,491 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Flight Control Design for a Turn Coordination System with Parameter UncertaintiesAri Legowo, Hiroshi OkuboThis paper presents a method of robust control system design for aircraft flight control systems with the existence of uncertainty parameters such as stability and control derivatives resulted by parameter identification process using real flight test data. A nonlinear model of aircraft turn coordination system is considered where the problem is to find the optimal controller by using the H∞ … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,498 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Canadian Regulations and Remediation Methods for Diesel Oil Contaminated SoilsD. G. Rushton, A E. Ghaly, K. MartinellDiesel fuel released into the environment can contaminate ground water, degrade potable water supplies and cause the collapse of fisheries. They are toxic to both animals and humans and can affect the liver, lungs, kidneys, and nervous system leading to cancer as well as immunological and reproductive effects. The objectives of this study were to review current Canadian regulations pertaining … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 8,758 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Priori Estimation of the Resolvent on Approximation of Born-OppenheimerSabria Bouheroum-Mentri, Amina BenbernouIn this study, we estimate the resolvent of the two bodies Shrodinger operator perturbed by a potential of Coulombian type on Hilbert space when h tends to zero. Using the Feschbach method, we first distorted it and then reduced it to a diagonal matrix. We considered a case where two energy levels cross in the classical forbidden region. Under the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,725 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRoundup of Graphical Navigation Helpers on the WebChabane Khentout, Mahieddine Djoudi, Lamri DouidiDespite the recent research, the Web remains mainly constituted of an ever-growing network of documents. As it becomes easier to publish documents, as the number of users and thus publishers, increases and as the number of documents grows, searching for information is turning into a cumbersome and time-consuming operation. Because of the loose interconnection between documents, people have difficulty remembering … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,839 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Secure Protocol Based on a Sedentary Agent for Mobile Agent EnvironmentsAbdelmorhit E. Rhazi, Samuel Pierre, Hanifa BouchenebThe main challenge when deploying mobile agent environments pertains to security issues concerning mobile agents and their executive platform. This paper proposes a secure protocol which protects mobile agents against attacks from malicious hosts in these environments. Protection is based on the perfect cooperation of a sedentary agent running inside a trusted third host. Results show that the protocol detects … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 6,878 accessesView PDF Cite
