Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFire Design: Direct Comparison Between Fire Curves. The Case Study of a NurseryMara Lombardi, Giuliano Rossi, Nicolò Sciarretta, Nino OrangesAccording to fire safety engineering, the present study analyzes fire design settings for simulation of fire in a nursery and proposes to compare simulations developed with a natural fire curve and nominal fire curve. Comparative analysis was developed according to thermo-fluid dynamic parameters that are relevant to the safety of the exposed and for the representative period of the danger … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 9 Sep 2013 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFault Tolerant Control Using Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller Tuned by Genetic AlgorithmS. Kanthalakshmi, V. ManikandanProblem statement: The growing demand for reliability, maintainability and survivability in industrial processes has drawn significant research in fault detection and fault tolerant control domain. A fault is usually defined as an unexpected change in a system, such as component malfunction and variations in operating condition, which tends to degrade the overall system performance. The purpose of fault detection is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 15 Jul 2011 · 6,479 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimultaneous Thermodynamic and Kinetic Parameters Determination Using Differential Scanning CalorimetryNader Frikha, Mohamed Bouroukba, Eric Schaer, Jean-Leon HouzelotProblem statement: The determination of reaction kinetics is of major importance, as for industrial reactors optimization as for environmental reasons or energy limitations. Although calorimetry is often used for the determination of thermodynamic parameters alone, the question that arises is: how can we apply the Differential Scanning Calorimetry for the determination of kinetic parameters. The objective of this study consists … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2011 · 7,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Stripping Frequency on Semen Quality of Endangered Caspian Brown Trout, Salmo trutta caspiusSaeed Hajirezaee, Bagher Mojazi Amiri, Ali Reza MirvaghefiProblem statement: Because of dramatic declines in stocks of endangered Caspian brown trout males, Salmo trutta caspius in Caspian Sea, each male brooder is stripped indispensably more than once during the spawning season in other to artificial insemination in hatchery. The aim of the present study was to assay the changes of indicators of semen quality (sperm motility, sperm production, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction of Oil from Jatropha Seeds-Optimization and KineticsSepidar Sayyar, Zurina Zainal Abidin, Robiah Yunus, Azhari MuhammadProblem statement: Jatropha curcas is a wonder plant with a variety of applications and enormous economic potentials. Oil from the seeds can be used as alternative fuel and for making biodiesel which aims to overcome energy crisis problems. In this study, extraction of Jatropha oil from seeds was optimized using organic solvent based on the amount of the extracted oil. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 13,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Acute-phase Reactants, Immunologic Markers and other Clinical and Laboratory Parameters in Patients with Pneumonia and Non-pneumonic Lower Respiratory Tract InfectionsJulio Collazos, María del Mar Martínez, Fernando IzquierdoMore efficacious tools to distinguish pneumonia from other acute lower respiratory tract infections (OALRTI) in facilities where radiologic studies are not easily or rapidly available are desirable to select the patients who should undergo chest radiographs, to avoid unnecessary visits to the emergency wards of hospitals and to optimize health resources. To this end we analyzed the relevance of many … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUpgrading of Light Dewaxed Oil through Hydrofinishing and Additives Blending for Producing Automatic Transmission FluidGamal Abdel-Nasser Gohar, Mohamed Sherif El-Gayar, Abd El-Moneim Ibrahim et al.Light dewaxed oil was produced through dewaxing process of the light waxy distillate raffinate of crude oil from Western Desert of Egypt using methyl ethyl ketone/toluene mixed solvent. Hydrofinishing process was used to remove the non-hydrocarbon constituents and to improve the physicochemical properties of the produced oils such as color, viscosity index, inhibition responses, oxidation and thermal stability. The operating … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,976 accessesView PDFCite
