Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh Rate-Dependent Interaction Diagrams for Reinforced Concrete ColumnsTaher Abu-Lebdeh, Sameer Hamoush, Wonchang Choi, Moayyad Al NasraProblem statement: There is a need to better understand the rate dependence behavior of reinforced concrete structures in order to improve their response to impact and blast loads. Analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures subjected to seismic loadings has been recommended in many FEMA guidelines. However, reevaluation of design becomes extremely important in cases where large deformations are expected … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2011 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Impact Level and Fruit Properties on Golden Delicious Apple BruisingArzhang Javadi, Ebrahim Ahmadi, Mohammad Hossein Abbaspour-Fard et al.Problem Statement: Bruise damage is a major cause of fruit quality loss. Bruises occur under dynamic and static loading when stress induced in the fruit exceeds the failure stress of the fruit tissue. Statistical bruise estimation models were constructed to calculate Golden Delicious apple bruise volume with respect to fruit properties. Approach: The regression models were built based upon impact … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,259 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Empirical Prediction Formula for Penetration of Ogive Nose Hard Missile into Concrete TargetsAhmad Mujahid Ahmad Zaidi, Qadir Bux Alias Imran Latif, Ismail Abdul Rahman, Muhammad Yusof IsmailProblem statement: Concrete is basic construction material used for most of structures. However, the typical vital structures have to be designed as self-protective such as nuclear plants, power plants, weapon industries, weapons storage places and water retaining structures, against any threats like natural disaster tragedy incident or intentionally produced by horrible incidents such as dynamic loading, incident occurs in nuclear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,448 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTraction Enhancing Products Affect Maximum Torque at the Shoe-Floor Interface: A Potential Increased Risk of ACL InjuryMorse, A., M.M. Mansfield et al.The knee is one of the most frequently injured joints in the body, between 100 000 and 400 000 Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries occur in the United States each year. This investigation explores the impact of wipe- or spray-on sneaker products used to increase traction between shoes and hardwood courts on the loading of the ACL. Specifically, the maximum … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Sep 2016 · 8,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Transport Phenomena on Pollutants Concentration in Mediterranean Tunisian RegionsKarim Bouchlaghem, Blaise Nsom, Jean-Francois DorvilleThe objective of this study is to investigate the origin of the polluted air masses in the Tunisian Mediterranean regions and to characterize the atmospheric conditions and the transport and dispersion mechanisms that give rise to pollution events. For this end, we conducted continuous measurements campaigns of surface ozone concentration and meteorological parameters during summer 2011 using mobile and fixed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 23 Jan 2014 · 6,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Reliability Calculations for the Thin Specialty Glass PV Solar PanelsDhananjay Joshi, James E. WebbThis study provides important design guidance to the Photovoltaic (PV) solar panel development efforts using the finite element based computations of the PV module under the mechanical loadings. We consider specialty thin glass (Corning Eagle XG®) as superstrate of the PV module, while a standard tempered Soda-Lime-Silica Glass (SLG) is considered as bottom support. The reliability calculations for the module … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 3 Sep 2019 · 7,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metals Contamination of Road-Deposited SedimentsJonathan YisaProblem statement: Impact of anthropogenic activities on man and his environment as a result of the growing rate of urbanization in Bida, Nigeria is of a great concern. Street sediments that accumulate along pavements in urban environments have the potential to provide considerable loadings of heavy metals to receiving waters and water bodies, particularly with changing environmental conditions. The objective … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
