Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Aliphatic Hydrocarbons in Sediments of Shatt Al-Arab River, Southern Iraq, North East Arabian GulfWisam Abdul-Ameer FaridShatt Al-Arab River is one of the important rivers for water supply, industry and irrigation in Basrah City, south of Iraq. It's also supply drinking water to users in the region. Despite the significance of this river, there is a lack of previous studies dealing with petroleum pollution especially for geochemical studies of organic matter in the river sediments using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 29 Jan 2018 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiagnosis of Hepatitis Disease with Logistic Regression and Artificial Neural NetworksAlaa M. Elsayad, Ahmed M. Nassef, Mujahed Al-DhaifallahHepatitis C refers to the inflammatory state of the liver caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, and exposure to toxins such as alcohol and self-immunity. The diagnosis requires investigating many laboratory tests and comparing the results to those of the former patients with the same conditions. This study presents the results of our experiments to build a hybrid system that combines … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 27 Mar 2020 · 7,466 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Cosmic Microwave Background: A Condition of MaximumAntonie DinculescuIt is shown that by imposing a condition of maximum value for the luminosity of the source at the origin of the cosmic microwave background, one arrives at a set of equations characteristic to important cosmological quantities. Although these equations do not have a solid theoretical support, the values of the parameters derived from them agree surprisingly well with the … …Space Science International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 15 Feb 2016 · 12,783 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimum Design and Cost Characteristic of Small ConveyorSuwat Nanetoe, Nitipong SoponpongpipatAlthough there are many works dealing with the economic analysis of a long conveyor, the information about a short conveyor is insufficient. This study, thus, deals with the short conveyor by studying the effect of belt width, belt length, convey capacity, and conveyor inclination angle on the cost characteristic of short conveyor. The study was done by calculating the conveyor … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2013 · 7,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplified Procedure for Unsaturated Flow ParametersNatthawit Jitrapinate, Vichai Sriboonlue, Kriengsak Srisuk, Dolrerdee HormdeeProblem statement: The unsaturated hydraulic conductivity K(θ) and Soil Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) for saline soil or soil directly contacted with saline water are not permitted using several apparatus to determining. Approach: A simplified method to determine K(θ) and SWCC by using simple apparatus is presented. Using the proposed numerical model with the van Genuchten equations and inverse calculation for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Flux linkage Characteristics and Inductance of a Submersible Switched Reluctance Motor using Software ToolsSundaram Maruthachalam, Navaneethan PalaniswamyProblem statement: The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is an old member of the Electric Machines Family. It’s simple structure, ruggedness and inexpensive manufacturing capability make it more attractive for Industrial applications. Now, the applications of switched reluctance motors in various industrial fields are tried by many engineers. However, switched reluctance motors are not used so far in submersible underwater motor … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMinimum and Complete Fluidization Velocity for Sand-Palm Shell Mixtures, Part II: Characteristic Velocity Profiles, Critical Loading and Binary CorrelationsV. S. Chok, A. Gorin, H. B. ChuaProblem statement: In Part I of this research, the main features of the fluidization behavior and characteristic velocities had been reported. Approach: In the present research, the mixtures characteristic velocity profiles for various sand sizes, palm shell sizes and weight percents were presented. It was recognized that there are instances where the characteristic values remain nearly unchanged from its pure … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,423 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMinimum and Complete Fluidization Velocity for Sand-Palm Shell Mixtures, Part I: Fluidization Behavior and Characteristic VelocitiesV. S. Chok, A. Gorin, H. B. ChuaProblem statement: Palm shell on its original state cannot be fluidized solely. However, mixing palm shell with a second fluidizable material can facilitate proper fluidization. Approach: The minimum and complete fluidization velocity (Umf and Ucf) for sand/palm shell binary mixtures had been studied in a partitioned reactor known as Compartmented Fluidized Bed Gasifier (CFBG). The pilot scale reactor ID is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Light-Weight Service Discovery Protocol for Ad Hoc NetworksRanwa Al Mallah, Alejandro QuinteroProblem statement: In mobile ad hoc networks devices do not rely on a fixed infrastructure and thus have to be self-organizing. This gives rise to various challenges to network applications. Existing service discovery protocols fall short of accommodating the complexities of the ad-hoc environment. However, the performance of distributed service discovery architectures that rely on a virtual backbone for locating … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,336 accessesView PDFCite
