Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Gravity Field of a CubeJames Michael Chappell, Mark John Chappell, Azhar Iqbal, Derek AbbottWe calculate the Newtonian gravitational potential and field of a cubic, homogeneous asteroid and we apply it to the orbit of possible satellites. Large astronomical objects such as stars or planets, naturally tend to form spherical shapes due to the dominance of the gravitational forces, but as a thought experiment, we consider the properties of a planet in the form … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 27 Mar 2013 · 15,337 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRemoving Boron from an Aqueous Solution Using Turmeric Extract-Aided Coagulation-FlocculationAzhar Abdul Halim, Nur Hanani Thaldiri, Normah Awang, Mohd Talib LatifProblem statement: Boron exists in an environment naturally either through weathering of rocks or volcanic activity but due to anthropogenic activity, boron had been distributed widely into our surroundings. Boron was a problematic pollutant due to the difficulty to remove it from the water. Turmeric which had been widely used as a spice and traditional medicine, were investigated to determine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 15 Jun 2012 · 8,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffects of Pollutant Diesel Fuels on Neurobehavioral Performance among Workers in Locomotive DepotAnuar Ithnin, Radiah Abu Hasan Shaari, Mazrura Sahani et al.Problem statement: Diesel fuel contains various combinations of hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane, n-hexane, benzene and toluene which can cause health problems in major exposure of that pollutant in locomotive depots. Studies were conducted to evaluate the exposure towards diesel fuel pollutant and the effect on neurobehavioral performances among workers in locomotive depots. Approach: Method used was questionnaire form and neurobehavioral … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesChange in Growth Performance and Liver Function Enzymes of Broiler Chickens Challenged with Infectious Bursal Disease Virus to Dietary Supplementation of Methionine and ThreonineElham Maroufyan, Azhar Kasim, Seyed Reza Hashemi et al.Problem statement: The aim of this study was to verify the effects of methionine and threonine supplementations higher than the NRC recommendation on growth performance, liver function enzymes, blood parameters and immune tissues of broiler chickens challenged with infectious bursal disease. Approach: A total of 450 day-old male broiler chicks were assigned to nine groups. Chickens were fed by three … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Effect of Methionine and Threonine Supplementations on Immune Responses of Broiler Chickens Challenged with Infectious Bursal DiseaseElham Maroufyan, Azhar Kasim, Seyed Reza Hashemi et al.Problem statement: The aim of this study was conducted to determine the effects of supplementing methionine and threonine higher than the National Research Council (NRC) recommendation in the diets on immune responses of broiler chickens challenged with Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD). Approach: A total of 450 day-old male broiler chicks were assigned to one of the nine dietary treatments. Three … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRobust Logistic Regression to Static Geometric Representation of RatiosAlireza Bahiraie, Noor Akma Ibrahim, A.K.M. Azhar, Ismail Bin MohdProblem statement: Some methodological problems concerning financial ratios such as non-proportionality, non-asymetricity, non-salacity were solved in this study and we presented a complementary technique for empirical analysis of financial ratios and bankruptcy risk. This new method would be a general methodological guideline associated with financial data and bankruptcy risk. Approach: We proposed the use of a new measure of risk, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,222 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesVariability in Antihypertensive Drug Therapy and Compliance: Results from a Random Survey in the United Arab EmiratesSyed Azhar Syed Sulaiman, Muaed Jamal Alomar, Claire Caroline StrauchProblem statement: Hypertension is one of the most common diseases known as the ‘silent killer’ because it shows no clinical signs and symptoms. The high prevalence of hypertension in the United Arab Emirates stresses the importance to initiate a nation-wide effort to prevent and control high blood pressure in the population, especially since the prevalence rates are indicative of one … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,232 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOn the Predictability of Risk Box Approach by Genetic Programming Method for Bankruptcy PredictionAlireza Bahiraie, Noor Akma bt Ibrahim, A. K.M. AzharProblem statement: Theoretical based data representation is an important tool for model selection and interpretations in bankruptcy analysis since the numerical representation are much less transparent. Some methodological problems concerning financial ratios such as non-proportionality, non-asymetricity, non-scalicity are solved in this study and we presented a complementary technique for empirical analysis of financial ratios and bankruptcy risk. Approach: This study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSeasonal Distribution of Organic Carbon in the Surface Sediments of the Terengganu Nearshore Coastal AreaS. Hasrizal, B. Y. Kamaruzzaman, I. Sakri et al.Problem statement: The distribution of organic carbon in the surface sediment is a crucial indicator for current productivity in the ocean especially in the nearshore area. The difference of organic carbon in the surface sediment reflects the influence of current movement on the bottom sediment. Approach: This study was carried out to oversee the difference of organic carbon distribution during … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
