Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Operational Features of Pumping Stations Equiped with Parallel-Connected Centrifugal Pumps for Land-ReclamationKhalid S. Al-RababaThe required water supply of a pump could be provided by means of different combinations of pressure piping and pumping units at different operational costs. The basic indices describing the operational modes for the individual and group pumping units, including the values of the efficiency, are computed. The adequacy of the calculational results that based on the developed mathematical models … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,802 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Properties of a Dispersant Used for Extracting Oil with High Gas-Oil RatioVladimir Verbitsky, Aleksey Dengaev, Oleg Zubkov, Dmitry KoshkinThe article presents the bench test results for a dispersant manufactured by Izhnefteplast Company, which specializes in batch production of unique submersible pumping equipment for oil extraction. The submersible equipment is unique in that the working elements of the pumping equipment are made of polymeric materials unlike the conventional concept of pumping machinery for oil production. The relevance of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 24 Feb 2016 · 7,293 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOVING UP ON SOLAR INDUSTRY VALUE CHAIN: A RESPOND TO WORLD BANK’S PRESCRIPTION FOR MALAYSIAB. Bakhtyar, Ch. Lim, Y. Ibrahim et al.The pressure due to the changes in supplying energy and its price in the international community is in such an extent that it encourages industrialized and developing countries in seeking self-sufficiency in energy production. As one of the leading in countries South East Asia Nations (ASEAN), Malaysia has taken planning and specific investment for the Solar Industry into consideration, besides … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Jul 2014 · 7,139 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlattening Effect on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Sintered-Wick Heat PipeWeeranut Intagun, Pradit Terdtoon, Phurt SakulchangsatjataiThe effect of pipe flattening on heat transfer characteristics and the internal phenomena of a sintered-wick heat pipe has been investigated by using three-dimensional Finite Element Method. The calculation domains were focused at three important regions, i.e., vapor core, wick and wall. The Cartesian coordinates and the three-dimensional tetrahedral elements were applied in this model. The selected total elements were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 4 Jul 2013 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Public Participation Process in Development Projects in Thailand: A Case Study of the Hin Krut Power Plant ProjectChutarat Chompunth, Suphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Public participation has become a vital element of environmental decision-making. Although public participation has grown tremendously in Thailand due to a rising pressure from the public, this practice often fails to solve environmental problems and conflicts. There is a keen for a systematic evaluation of the public participation process to investigate whether the participation process is effective and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 16 Mar 2012 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBy-pass Devices as Effective Means of Protection from the Hydraulic HammerKhalid S. Al-RababaSwitching-off the parallel working pump units causes sudden discharge changes in parallel pipe lines, as a result of that hydraulic shocks takes place. The damping of these shocks can be achieved by the installation of the by-pass devices between the parallel lines of the piping system. The analytical calculations demonstrate that the reduction in hydraulic shocks reaches 40% and considerable … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechatronic Systems to the Braking MechanismsRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuWith the evolution of technology, the construction and geometry of the piston, together with the materials from which it is made, as well as the related manufacturing technologies, have been continuously improved. Thus, modern engines have become less polluting, working at higher temperatures and pressures. Body aerodynamics have been improved, leading to lower resistance forces from the air. Also, the … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Aug 2020 · 6,954 accessesView PDFCite
