Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Photoheterotrophic Hydrogen Production of Rhodobacter sphaeroides KCTC 1434 using Volatile Fatty Acids under Argon and Nitrogen HeadspaceRuby Lynn G. Ventura, Jey-R S. Ventura, Young-Sook OhIn this study, the photo fermentative H2 production of Rhodobacter sphaeroides KCTC 1434 was investigated using acetate, propionate and butyrate under argon and nitrogen headspace gases. The highest H2 yield and Substrate Conversion Efficiency (SCE) were observed from butyrate (8.84 mol H2/mol butyrate consumed, 88.42% SCE) and propionate (6.10 mol H2/mol propionate consumed, 87.16% SCE) under Ar headspace. Utilization of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 30 Nov 2016 · 9,058 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Nano Silica on the Compressive Strength of Harden Cement Paste at Different Stages of HydrationJustin Montgomery, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Sameer A. Hamoush, Miguel PicornellThis study investigated the compressive strength of hardened cement paste and the formation of Calcium Silicate Hydrate (C-S-H) with the addition of nano silica (SiO2). Compressive strength testing was performed using MTS and Forney testing machines to determine stress-strain curves and compressive strength of the materials. The hydration process and formation of C-S-H and Calcium Hydroxide (CH) was examined using … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Mar 2016 · 8,333 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOverdominance Effects between Malaria and Visceral Leishmaniasis in the 5q31 RegionMutaz Amin, Abdelbadea Elhassan, Kirk Rocket, Muntasir IbrahimA group of SNPs in 5q31, genotyped from Hausa tribe of Koka village in eastern Sudan; an area endemic with malaria and visceral leishmaniasis, were analyzed by The Leishmaniasis research group and found to have significant excess of heterozygosis level and departure from HWE and assumed to be due to natural selection resulting from notorious deadly outbreaks since various ethnic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 18 Sep 2015 · 7,114 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Flow Direction on Vortex Flow Structure, Heat Transfer and Performance Improvement in Tube with V-Discreted BafflesWithada Jedsadaratanachai, Amnart BoonloiNowadays, the compact heat exchanger is used widely like a radiator, evaporator and condenser of air condition system, cooling device of electronic. Extensive studies have been done on the heat transfer characteristics and flow structure for the heat exchanger with longitudinal vortex generators by numerical method. Periodic laminar flow and heat transfer characteristics in a three-Dimensional (3D) isothermal circular tube … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,714 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract3D Numerical Study on Laminar Forced Convection in V-Baffled Square ChannelAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiThe article presents a mathematical study of fully developed periodic laminar flow visualization and heat transfer characteristics in an isothermal wall square-channel fitted with V-shaped baffles on one wall. The computations based on the finite volume method together with the SIMPLE algorithm have been performed. The investigation covers a range of Re based on the hydraulic diameter of the channel, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 Sep 2013 · 6,310 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlattening Effect on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Sintered-Wick Heat PipeWeeranut Intagun, Pradit Terdtoon, Phurt SakulchangsatjataiThe effect of pipe flattening on heat transfer characteristics and the internal phenomena of a sintered-wick heat pipe has been investigated by using three-dimensional Finite Element Method. The calculation domains were focused at three important regions, i.e., vapor core, wick and wall. The Cartesian coordinates and the three-dimensional tetrahedral elements were applied in this model. The selected total elements were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 4 Jul 2013 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality of Service Aware Reverse Pathad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector ProtocolK. G. Santhiya, N. ArumugamMobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is aninfra structureless network that does not require any built-in infra structure and central control. Due to very fast mobility of nodes, there will be drastic changes in the network topology. So an adaptive routing protocol is needed for effective and reliable routing in MANET. Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol is the efficient and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTheater Activities for Jung Opera Audience: An Educational UrgencyElita MauleProblem statement: Numerous studies have led researchers to conclude that the socio-demographic profile of the public of classical music appears to be quite generalizable.
