Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Time of Flooding Occurrence is Critical for Yield Production in Rice and Vary in a Genotype-Dependent MannerJenjira Mongon, Arom Jantasorn, Prateep Oupkaew et al.Flash floods occur in rainfed lowland and flood-prone areas and have a profound incidence on crop yield, which is tightly linked to worldwide food insecurity. The most flooding-threatened crop is rice. Under this condition, rice undergoes anoxic and post-anoxic shock that affects its growth, development capacity and ultimately causes an important grain yield loss. Therefore, the introduction of submergence-tolerant varieties … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2017 · 8,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate Projections of Future Extreme Events in MalaysiaA.H. Syafrina, M.D. Zalina, A. NorzaidaIn Malaysia, extreme rainfall events are often linked to a number of environmental disasters such as landslides, monsoonal and flash floods. In response to the negative impacts of such disaster, studies assessing the changes and projections of extreme rainfall are vital in order to gather climate change information for better management of hydrological processes. This study investigates the changes and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 21 Mar 2017 · 8,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGraphene Synthesis by Plasma-Enhanced CVD Growth with EthanolTeresa Campo, María Cotto, Francisco Márquez et al.A modified route to synthesize graphene flakes is proposed using the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technique, by using copper substrates as supports. The carbon source used was ethanol, the synthesis temperature was 950°C and the pressure was controlled along the whole process. In this CVD synthesis process the incorporation of the carbon source was produced at low pressure and 950°C … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2016 · 9,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScorpius: sFlow Network Anomaly SimulatorMarcos V.O. de Assis, Mario Lemes Proença Jr.Due to the increasing amount of data traveling computer networks every day, efficient management of this information is required to ensure the quality of the services provided by them. Development of new network management tools and mechanisms is a widely approached area due to its importance, not only to the current technology, but also to next generation network standards and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 23 Jul 2015 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on CRDI System Assisted Diesel Engine Fulled by Diesel with NanotubesC. Syed Aalam, C.G. Saravanan, M. KannanThis paper reports on the use of carbon multiwalled nanotubes as additive to the diesel fuel and the effects of their operational characteristics and performance, emission and combustion characteristics of the CRDI system assisted diesel engine. In this study, the tested fuels were prepared by dispersing carbon multiwalled nanotubes into the diesel fuel at the mass fraction of 25 and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Jun 2015 · 7,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuperiority of Prostration as a Protection from Lightning StrikeMiah Muhammad AdelProblem statement: Because of the significant fatalities due to lightning strikes in open fields, exploration has been made to find the human body’s most comfortable posture having the lowest length, width and height and the least ground touch in any terrain indoor and outdoor for the safest shelter from lightning strikes that neutralize an enormous amount of positive and negative … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 14 May 2012 · 15,423 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtending Binary Large Object Support to Open Grid Services Architecture-Data Access and Integration Middleware Client ToolkitKiran Kumar Patnaik, Bollam NagarjunProblem statement: OGSA-DAI middleware allows data resources to be federated and accessed via web services on the web or within grids or clouds. It provides a client API for writing programs that access the exposed databases. Migrating existing applications to the new technology and using a new API to access the data of DBMS with BLOB is difficult and discouraging. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 6,663 accessesView PDFCite
