Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSOLITARY WAVE MODULATION IN AN ARTERY WITH STENOSIS FILLED WITH A VISCOUS FLUIDYaan Yee Choy, Kim Gaik Tay, Chee Tiong OngIn this study, the derivation of mathematical model for the wave modulation through an incompressible viscous fluid contained in a prestressed thin stenosed elastic tube is presented. The artery is assumed to be incompressible, prestressed thin walled elastic tube with a symmetrical stenosis, whereas the blood is considered to be incompressible and Newtonian fluid. By utilizing the nonlinear equations of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Simulation of the Transient Flow in Natural Gas Transmission Lines Using a Computational Fluid Dynamic MethodPedram Ghaseminejad, Nikan NoorbeheshtUntil now, almost all tools that are used to analyze gas transportation networks are based on steady flow conditions. Some design problems can be solved by the assumption of a steady state. However, some circumstances force us to use transient analyses, which commonly include changes in customer demand, the failure of a compressor station or gas pipeline ruptures. In this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2013 · 7,457 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIntegrated Supercritical Fluid Extraction and BioprocessingOwen Catchpole, Stephen Tallon, Peter Dyer et al.Supercritical fluids are increasingly being used and promoted at a laboratory and pilot scale to produce high value, natural bioactives from biologically based raw materials. Supercritical CO2 is overwhelmingly the solvent of choice for these operations, but is largely limited to the processing of dry raw materials and the extraction of low polarity, low molecular weight compounds. The use of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 9,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Gestation and Maternal Copper on the Fetal Fluids and Tissues Copper Concentrations in SheepAbd Elghany Hefnawy, Jorge Tortora-Perez, Saad Mohamed Shousha, Seham Youssef AbuKoraProblem statement: Samples of allantoic, amniotic fluid, fetal liver, kidney, maternal plasma and liver were collected from 30 ewes and classified into either early or late gestation and copper concentrations were measured. Approach: The Cu concentrations in the maternal plasma, allantoic, amniotic fluid, fetal liver and kidney increased significantly (p<0.01) during late gestation while maternal liver Cu decreased significantly (p<0.01). … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 20 Sep 2011 · 7,466 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLab-on-Chip Methodology in the Energy Industry: Wettability Patterns and Their Impact on Fluid Displacement in Oil Reservoir ModelsMarc H. Schneider, Patrick TabelingProblem statement: We present an experimental study of multiphase transport in porous media with controlled wettability patterns based on lab-on-chip methodology. Approach: Fractional, or patterned, wettability is known to have an enormous impact in the petroleum industry on oil recovery and continuous efforts are being made to assess the role of such conditions. Results: Thus far, due to the absence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 7,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Intraarticular Tramadol Administration on Biochemical and Cytological Properties of Equine Synovial Fluid: Comparison with LidocaineAlireza Raayat Jahromi, Abutorab Tabatabaei Naeini, Saeed NazifiProblem statement: Diagnostic and therapeutic arthroscopic surgeries are procedures performed quite frequently in equine practice; and are considered to cause some degree of postoperative pain. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the equine synovial fluid biochemical and cytological changes following intra-articular administration of tramadol as a potential analgesic. Approach: Six adult healthy donkeys were selected after clinical … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,514 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDiagnostic Value of Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid Procalcitonin in Differentiation Bacterial from Aseptic MeningitisZhinous Bayat Makoo, Hamid Reza Soltani, Akbar Hasani et al.Problem statement: Acute bacterial meningitis is one of the most important causes of medical emergency diseases, which can cause high mortality and morbidity rates. Early antibiotic therapy is life saving in bacterial meningitis. One of the most common etiologies of acute meningitis is viral. Differentiation between bacterial and Aseptic meningitis is mandatory, which leads to avoid useless administration of antibiotics. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 12,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Influence of Total Solid Contents on Biogas Yield from Cattle Manure Using Rumen Fluid InoculumBudiyono, I. N. Widiasa, S. Johari, SunarsoProblem statement: Anaerobic digestion was a biological method used to convert organic wastes into biogas and a stable product for land application without adverse environmental effects. The biogas produced could be used as an alternative renewable energy source. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of total solid contents on biogas yield from cattle manure using fluid … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 12,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of the Prostatic Fluid from the First and Third Fractions of the Ejaculates on the Cryosurvival of Poodle Dog SpermHideaki Yamashiro, Kaori Narita, Satoshi Sugimura et al.Problem statement: Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of the prostatic fluid from the first and third fractions of the ejaculates on the freezability of poodle dog sperm. Approach: The ejaculates from 2 trained poodle dogs were collected. Effect of prostatic fluid from the first and third fractions of ejaculates on cryosurvival of dog sperm was examined. SDS-PAGE … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,831 accessesView PDFCite
