Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractEfforts to Know the Rate at which Students Analyze and Synthesize Information in Science and Social Science Disciplines: A Multidisciplinary Bio-Communication StudyDeni Darmawan, Yadi Ruyadi, Wamaungo Juma Abdu, Achmad HufadInformation processing is difficult to observe by most people because it involves self monitoring of one’s thinking. The process under which the cognitive functions is influenced by the rate at which different people analyze and synthesise information. However, though this is true, a measure of the speed in which information is processed is still new within the Indonesian perspective. Currently, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2017 · 7,590 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractInternational Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research: A New Open Platform for Materials ScienceChiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Andreas Luible, Flavio StochinoEditorial The International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research (IJSGAMR) is a new peer-reviewed, open access journal, which covers all aspects of theoretical and practical research of materials science. The journal aims to promote international exchange of knowledge and broad discussion on advancements, outcomes and recent developments in materials research for engineering applications. In the last years, the … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 17 May 2017 · 13,690 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScanning Electron Microscopic Evaluation of Self-Compacting Concrete Spalling at Elevated TemperaturesMahmoud B. Alhasanat, Arabi N. Al Qadi, Omar A. Al Khashman, Ahmad DahamshehThis paper reports the effect of addition of Polypropylene (PP) fibers in the performance of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) under elevated temperatures. Various SCC mixtures were made with PP fiber at 0.0, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15% by volume added. The specimens were exposed to elevated temperatures (200°C [392°F], 400°C [752°F] and 600°C [1112°F]). The microstructure of the matrix was investigated. This … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2016 · 8,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE HIGH VOLUME REUSE OF HYBRID BIOMASS ASH AS A PRIMARY BINDER IN CEMENTLESS MORTAR BLOCKCheah Chee Ban, Noor Shazea Ahmad Nordin, Part Wei Ken et al.High Calcium Wood Ash (HCWA) and Pulverised Fuel Ash (PFA) are by-products from the wood biomass and coal energy production which are produced in large quantity with combined annual production of 500 million tonnes. This poses a serious problem for disposal of the waste material especially at places where land is scarce. The prescribed study was aimed to examine the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 29 May 2014 · 7,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluences of Short Discrete Fibers in High Strength Concrete with Very Coarse SandMahyuddin Ramli, Kwan Wai HoeProblem statement: High Strength Concrete (HSC) normally content high cementitous amount and low water binder ratio. However, these would cause substantial volume changes to the concrete and therefore affected the strength development. In addition, the brittleness of HSC was increased when silica fume used as partial cement replacement to achieve high strength. Approach: This study discussed the effects of incorporated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRational Mix Design Approach for High Strength Concrete Using Sand with very High Fineness ModulusKwan Wai Hoe, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Production of concrete is always deal with inconsistency. Sources of variation like materials from different geographical basis, mix design method, fineness of aggregates and so on will attribute to different level of achievement of the concrete. Even though researcher had verified that higher fineness modulus of sand would yield better performance for the concrete, but so far there … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,217 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPullout Characterizations of Various Steel Fibers Embedded in Very High-Strength ConcreteSameer Hamoush, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Toney Cummins, Brian ZornigProblem statement: There is a real need for a fundamental understanding of bond and bond mechanisms in the newly developed Very-High-Strength-Concrete (VHSC) materials. The interfacial steel fiber/VHSC matrix bond tests are needed to characterize VHSC and to aid in the development of analytical models that describe bond behavior of this new material. Approach: This research investigated bond-slip characteristics of four … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConfined High Strength Concrete Columns: An Experimental StudyJagannathan Saravanan, K. Suguna, P. N. RaghunathProblem statement: An experimental study on GFRP confined high strength concrete columns has been carried out with a view to evaluate its performances under uni-axial compression in terms of load and deformation capacity. Approach: High strength concrete columns strengthened with different configuration and stiffness of GFRP wraps were tested under axial compression until failure. Their response evaluated at different load … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,642 accessesView PDFCite
