Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupporting the Josephson Interpretation of Low Energy Nuclear Reactions and Stabilization of Nuclear WasteF. Osman, H. Hora, X. Z. Li et al.Brian Josephson appealed at the meeting of the Nobel Laureates July 2004 against the ignorance of physicist to the phenomenon of cold fusion. Though there are good reasons against many publications on this topic but not for all what was reported. It seems to be indicated to summarize the following serious, reproducible and confirmed observations on the reactions of protons … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Characterization of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Composite Material: Polymerization of m-Aminobenzoic Acid-Intercalated Into Zn/Al-Layered Double HydroxidesRasheed M.A.Q. JamhourLayered double hydroxides of aluminum and zinc (Zn/Al-LDH’s) were synthesized directly by hydrolysis at room temperature as reported elsewhere. After characterization, the material was reacted with m-aminobenzoat anion (m-NH2C6H4COO-) which undergoes polymerization in the interlayer space; resulting in the formation of a matrix with polymeric organic macromolecule. The resulting material along with the host LDH’s compound of Zn/Al-Cl was characterized … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRevisiting Share Market Efficiency: Evidence from the New Zealand Australia, US and Japan Stock IndicesChristopher Gan, Minsoo Lee, Au Yong Hue Hwa, Jun ZhangThis study aims to re-examine the market efficiencies in New Zealand Stock Exchange (NZSE) and Australia Stock Exchange (ASX) stock indices to investigate whether Groenewold’s[1] findings still hold in the period after the financial liberalization (January 1990-January 2003). In addition, the study also examines whether the larger US NYSE and Japanese NIKKEI stock indices have any influence on the NZSE … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,966 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Gamma Irradiation on the Structure Diffusion Coefficient of Co-Zn Doped FerriteDalal Mohammed HemedaA series of the ferrite system Co0.6Zn0.4MnxFe2-xO4 with (x = 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 and 1) were prepared by general ceramic method. The X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the formation of the cubic single phase structure. The lattice parameter and the crystal size increased after irradiation which was attributed to the formation of ferrous ions of larger radius than that of ferrous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,728 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Zinc, Cadmium, Lead and Copper in Kakade, Anise, Cumin, Caraway Black Pepper Extracts Using Differential Pulse Anodic Stripping Voltammetry with Hanging Mercury Drop ElectrodeZ. R. KomyAn extraction and sensitive differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetric (DPASV) method at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) is described for the determination of Zn, Cu, Pb (mg g1) and Cd (ng g1) metal ions in water and 0.1 M HCl extracts for kakade, anise, cumin, caraway and black pepper. The procedure in water extract is based on the determination … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,875 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphing Mechanisms Part 2: Using Repetitive Control to Morph Cam Follower MotionNonglak Phetkong, Meng-Sang Chew, Richard W. LongmanThis research utilizes the repetitive control approach in morphing a high-speed cam mechanism so that its output displacement tracks the desired output trajectory. The main objective is to reduce the output tracking error, which is the difference between the actual and desired output displacements of the output mass. A 3-degree of freedom mathematical model is used to analyze and represent … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,369 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Fuzzy Neural Networks for the Detection of Tumors in Medical ImagesN. Benamrane, A. Freville, R. NekkacheIn this study, we propose an approach to detect suspect zones or tumors in medical images. The idea is to define with precision the existence of different kinds of lesions using a hybrid system, which combines Fuzzy Neural Networks and Expert System. After applying a method of image segmentation to extract regions (by region growing algorithm or by mathematical morphology … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Laser Irradiation on the Structural and Electrical Properties of Co-Zn Ferrite Thin FilmNehad M. TashtoushThin films of irradiated and non-irradiated Co-Zn ferrite was prepared by the thermal evaporation method on a glass substrate. The samples were annealed at 200°C, 400°C and 600°C for 1hr. The XRD analysis of all kinds of films, prepared for this study, shows that the spinel phase is almost completed after annealing. The change of the XRD after annealing is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Spectrophotometric Method for Determination of Iron in Herbs, Spices and Beans with 2,6-Diacetylprydine Dioxime and 2-Acetylpyridine MonoximeZ. R. Komy, E. A. Abu-Gharib, A. DesokyThe reaction of iron (II) with 2, 6-diacetylprydine dioxime (H2dapd) and 2-acetylprydine monoxime (Hapm) in 10% and 60% v/v ethanol-water solution at pH 2.5 and 7.5, respectively, were studied using direct and first derivative spectrophotometry. Fe (III) is reduced by H2dapd and gives iron (II) complex. A simple, rapid, selective and sensitive method for the determination of Fe (II), Fe … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,960 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Investigation of the Relationship among Analyst Following, Managerial Ownership and Firm Valuation: From the Perspective of Agency TheoryI. J. ChenIn this study, the relationship among analyst following, managerial ownership and firm valuation is investigated from the perspective of agency theory by using a nonlinear simultaneous equation model. The data from the Taiwan stock market verify the proposed hypotheses with a nonlinear three-stage least-square procedure. The empirical results show that managerial ownership (serving an internal monitoring function) and number of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
