Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSafety Health Impacts of Particulate Matter from Excavation Work SitesGiuseppe Pizzo, Marina ClericoEpidemiological studies have shown a linear relationship between airborne particulates and effects on human health. This study examines the risk that can be run by populations which are exposed to significant pollutant sources such as excavation in urban areas for renovation work. The health risk assessment methodology defined by the WHO air quality guidelines for Europe was applied to assess … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Jul 2012 · 7,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Biomechanical Composite Model to Determine Effective Elastic Moduli of the CNS Gray MatterMehdi Khoshgoftar, Siamak Najarian, Farhad Farmanzad et al.Brain tissue is a heterogeneous material with complicated microstructural features. Models based on microstructure can lead to more accurate and physically realistic predictions of mechanical characteristics of brain tissue. A two-step Mori-Tanaka/Voigt homogenization procedure is implemented into a 3D microstructurally-based multi-phase composite model, composed of randomly-oriented elastic axons, dendrites and neuronal cell bodies surrounded by an elastic matrix. The effects … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAir Quality Interpretation of Four Geographically Distinct Hot Spot States of India-An Appraisal Using Aerosol Optical Depth and Particulate MatterJacob Joshua, Aishwarya Sathyachandran, Chenicherry House SujathaThe application of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer-Aerosol Optical Depth (MODIS-AOD) for Air Quality (AQ) assessment has contributed significantly by making use of a spatiotemporal relationship between ground-level particulate matter and aerosol optical density at both city and state levels. Traditional ground-based site-specific particulate matter monitoring method has found a profound gap in their spatial coverage. Such challenging situations prevail over … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 6 · 8 Feb 2023 · 5,883 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn Assumption Regarding the way Matter is Constituted and Structured from LightFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe paper briefly presents some basic ideas on how matter is constituted and structured, based on permanent light as intrinsic energy. The fact that photons cannot be stored directly inside matter has not prevented it from having multiple hearts of energy springing from light, in the form of positive and negative electrical charges, which form the energy base of matter … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2022 · 6,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison of Nonlinear Models for Dry Matter Yield of Brachiaria Hybrid cv Cayman in Drought Season by BootstrappingDanny Villegas Rivas, Nora Valbuena Torres, Manuel Milla Pino et al.The dynamics of biomass accumulation at different seasons of the year is of vital importance in the production of a forage species. In this study nonlinear models (logistic and gompertz) to describe growth dynamics of plants based on dry matter yield of Brachiaria hybrid Cayman at different interval between cuts in drought season were used. Results for logistic and gompertz … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2021 · 6,640 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssociation Between Particulate Matter (PM10) Exposure and Cardiorespiratory Hospital Admissions: A Time Series AnalysisNur Nabila Abd Rahim, Abqariyah Yahya, Wan Rozita Wan MahiyuddinThis study aimed to evaluate the association between particulate matter (PM10) exposure and cardiorespiratory hospital admissions and develop a time series model for cardiorespiratory hospital admissions in Johor, Malaysia. Retrospective time series analysis was utilised to study cardiorespiratory hospital admissions for the study period 2015-2016. Over-dispersed Poisson generalized linear models with parametric smoothing functions were used to examine the association … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 27 May 2021 · 6,917 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRecognizing Dissolved Organic Matter with an Improved Fluorescence Regional Integral MethodZhang Jianguo, Wang Xinyi, Liu Xiaoman et al.The aim of this paper was to study transformations of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) in marl rock groundwater. To achieve this, we carried out a series of soil column experiments, using a DOM solution as the water sample and marl rock as the testing rock sample. Three-Dimensional Excitation-Emission Matrix Spectra (3DEEMS) were generated for DOM solutions and the Analytic Hierarchy … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2019 · 7,288 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenotoxicity through Exposure to Particulate Matter (PM10) at two Sites in the Valle de Aburrá, ColombiaVerónica Estrada-Vélez, Lucelly López-López, Lina María Martínez-Sánchez et al.To establish differences in the genotoxic effect of particulate matter (PM10) in exposed individuals at two sites in the Valle de Aburrá (VA). This was a descriptive cross-sectional study of 2 groups of individuals exposed to 67.7 and 45 µg/m3 of PM10 for a minimum of 8 hours/day. The frequency of Chromosomal Abnormalities (CAs) and the mitotic index were evaluated … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2019 · 8,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE PROPERTIES OF NUCLEAR MATTERKhaled Hassaneen, Hesham MansourThe microscopic and bulk properties of nuclear matter at zero and finite temperatures are studied in the frame of the Brueckner theory. The results for the symmetry energy are also obtained using different potentials. The calculations are based on realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions which reproduce the nucleon-nucleon phase shifts. These microscopic approaches are supplemented by a density-dependent contact interaction to achieve … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Jul 2013 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Correlations Between Mercury Speciation and Dissolved Organic Matter in the Sediment of the Red SeaM. A. Wedyan, F. A. Ababneh, S. Al-RousanThis study addresses the correlations between Hg and organic matter in recent sediment; samples were collected from the Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea coasts (oligotrophic regions) during 2010.
