Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsASSESSING THE HABITAT SUITABILITY OF TWO DIFFERENT ARTIFICIAL WETLAND HABITATS USING AVIAN COMMUNITY STRUCTURESM. Zakaria, M. N. RajparArtificial wetlands have become highly important habitat for a variety of bird species particularly waterbirds due to loss and degradation of natural wetlands. Avian community structures in two artificial wetland habitats i.e., man-made marsh and lake were investigated to identify the suitability of the habitats for avian species, habitat preference and food resources. Distance sampling point count method detected 35272 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 24 May 2014 · 7,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effects of Using Crumb Rubber Modified Binder in an Asphalt PavementSayed Mohamad Soleimani, Alanoud Faheiman, Zainab MowazeIn this study, laboratory investigations have been carried out to characterize and demonstrate the improved performance of asphalt after modifying it with crumb rubber. The study has been divided into two main parts. Firstly, the physical characterizations of crumb rubber modified bitumen with different percentages of crumb rubber have been evaluated using penetration, softening point, viscosity, ductility and thin film … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 14 May 2020 · 8,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessing and Improving the Performance of Grouted MacadamMomtaz M. Othman, Ahmed Ebrahim Abu El-Maaty, Zeinab S. HusseinThere are many road defects appear in flexible pavement layers. Rutting, raveling and cracks are considered the main problems in Egypt. Using grouted macadam system as a surface asphaltic layer (or called Semi-Flexible Pavement (SFP)) has many advantages such as saving the natural asphalt and enhancing the performance against deteriorations. The main scope of this research is to evaluate and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2020 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Crumb Rubber as Coarse and Fine Aggregates on the Properties of Asphalt ConcreteArabi N.S. Al Qadi, Mahmoud B.A. Alhasanat, Madhar HaddadThis research has used crumb rubber in asphalt mixture as a part of the coarse and fine aggregate. Three sieve sizes of crumb rubbers were used in asphalt mixture No. 4, No. 8 and No. 50, with five percent of asphalt cements (4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 and 6%) by weight and four percent of crumb rubbers (10, 20, 30 and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 24 Jun 2016 · 9,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpact of the Use of Object Request Broker Middleware for Inter-Component Communications in C6416 Digital Signal Processor Based Software Communications Architecture Radio SystemsWael A. Murtada, Mohamed M. Zahra, Magdi Fikri et al.Problem statement: This study presents an in-depth analysis of the performance of Software Communications Architecture (SCA) component-based waveform applications in terms of inter-component communications. The main limitation with SCA, in the context of embedded systems, is the additional cost introduced by the use of Object Request Broker (ORB) middleware. The ORB middleware handles the interaction between components and objects in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 3 Apr 2012 · 7,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Use of Polyethylene in Hot Asphalt MixturesMohammad T. Awwad, Lina ShbeebThe increase in road traffic during the last two decades in combination with an insufficient degree of maintenance due to shortage in funds has caused an accelerated and continuous deterioration of the road network in Jordan. To alleviate this process, several types of measures may be effective, e.g., securing funds for maintenance, improved roadway design, use of better quality of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 14,664 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFractal Dimension for the Characterization of Asphalt Mixture PropertiesGiovanni LeonardiIn the design of asphalt mixtures for paved roads, the shape of solid elements has a great importance. In asphalt concrete, the shape of aggregate particles influences the resistance, durability, stiffness, fatigue response and the required binder content of the mixture. Fractal geometry is more suitable to describe the irregularity of the shape of aggregate particles. This paper describes the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 7 · 13 Jul 2016 · 7,181 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIrrationality in the Neoclassical Definition of RationalitySteve KeenIn this study we are not arguing that competition as it actually occurs in practice is not socially beneficial. Our criticism is directed instead at the false belief that rational profit-maximizing behavior and competition as defined by neoclassical economic theory will lead to a welfare-maximizing outcome-again, as defined by neoclassical theory. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 13 · 18 Dec 2005 · 8,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNasal Myiasis Caused by Cochliomyia Hominivorax in the United States: A Case ReportRyan Tai, Michael A. Marsh, Ryan Rao et al.Cases of human myiasis caused by Cochliomyia hominivorax are typically reported in Central and South America. We report a case of nasal myiasis, which manifested in a hospitalized patient in the United States who did not have a recent travel history. The larvae were discovered in the patient’s nares on the fifth day of hospitalization. The patient was successfully treated … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 9 Jan 2012 · 8,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesParasitic Loads and Growth Performance of Goats and Kids under Sequential and Mixed Species Grazing with Cattle at a Constant Stocking RateRenita Woods Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Shonta Manuel et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of sequential and mixed species grazing on parasitic loads and growth performance of goat kids. The study was conducted between June and October, 2013. Forty eight (48) "Spanish" kids and 28 Brangus calves were randomly divided into four treatment groups; goats grazing alone (GOA, control), Goats Followed by Cattle (GFC), … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,537 accessesView PDFCite
