Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Fragility Assessment of RC Frame Equipped by Visco-Elastic Dampers Using NLTHA and FNAAli A. Rostam Alilou, Majid PouraminianIn recent years, the issue of lower computational cost and analysis time has been the important factors for the structural analysts. In the meantime, after years of its introduction as an analysis having features of nonlinear analysis, the Fast Nonlinear Analysis (FNA) claims to have a higher performance speed than other nonlinear analyses, but has been less used by the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2019 · 8,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Efficient Thermal Conversion Technologies and HHV from Compositional Characteristics of Cassava Peelings, Plantain Peelings and Corn CobsSamomssa Inna, Oumarou Amadou Amadou, Jiokap Nono Yvette et al.The understanding of compositional characteristics permits to predict the efficient thermal conversion technologies and Higher Heating Value (HHV). Although HHV can be determined directly, many models have been proposed for HHV prediction. They are based on proximate, ultimate, and structural analysis and require much data collected. The present work assesses to predict efficient thermal conversion technologies and HHV of the … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2022 · 10,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Assessment of Analytical models for the ULS Resistance Verification of Structural Glass Elements under Variable LoadsChiara Bedon, Claudio AmadioThe design of glass structures, due to the intrinsic material properties, is mainly governed by the typical tensile brittle behavior of the material. In this regard, a currently open question related to the use of glass in buildings as a load-bearing constructional material, is represented by the correct estimation of static fatigue phenomena due to a generic combination of design … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2017 · 7,765 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProblems of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic RaysAnna V. UrysonCosmic rays are energetic particles coming to the Earth from space. They bombard the atmosphere producing cascades of particles that spread over a large area when they reach the ground. Cosmic ray energies vary in the wide band from about 108 eV up to few 1020 eV. It is established that most particles with energies of ~ (108-109) eV come … …Space Science International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 6 Dec 2014 · 13,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStability Analysis of Southern Slope of Chenmenshan Open Pit Copper MineMohammed Mnzool, Ling Wan, Zuoan WeiChengmenshan Copper SulphurMine, one of the of the large-scale open pit mine in China, the engineering geology and hydrogeology in the Southern slope of the mine is very complicated and the contact plane between two kinds of sandstone’s form soft-weak layer. Field investigations and reports by operators demonstrated that some instability problems might occur in the southern slope which is … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffectiveness of Photocatalytic Decolourization of Reactive Red 120 Dye in Textile Effluent Using UV/H2O2Rishi Ananthashankar, Abdel GhalyThe effectiveness of Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) for degradation of reactive red 120 dye in aqueous solutions was tested in this present study. Ten different concentrations of the reactive red 120 dye were exposed to UV alone and a combination of UV with two different concentrations (10 ml/L and 20 ml/L) of H2O2 for 10 different retention times at the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKey Factors in the Face Stability Analysis of Shallow TunnelsDaniel Dias, Pierpaolo OresteStability of the excavation face in shallow tunnels and in poor ground is at present a relevant problem in tunnelling. A new calculation procedure is illustrated in this study for the analysis of the effect on the face stability in shallow tunnels of the following key factors: pre-support structures, presence of groundwater, free length of the tunnel (length of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 7,022 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRiver Embankment and Bank Failure: A Study on Geotechnical Characteristics and Stability AnalysisMd. Bellal Hossain, Toshinori Sakai, Md. Zakaria HossainProblem statement: Embankment failure and riverbank erosion are common problem in Bangladesh. Almost every year earthen embankments and riverbanks are facing problems like erosion, breaching or retirements. Among many reasons the major causes are considered due to the use of geotechnically unstable materials, improper method of construction, seepage and sliding. In this study the problem is considered geotechnical point of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 11,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRock Slopes Failure Susceptibility Analysis: From Remote Sensing Measurements to Geographic Information System Raster ModulesFilipello Andrea, Giuliani Andrea, Mandrone GiuseppeProblem statement: Two important step can be recognised in the rockfall analysis: the potential failure detection and the run out simulation. Analyzing the stability of rock slopes, most important kinematisms are planar or wedge slidings and topplings. The aim of this study was to coupling a deterministic approach for landslide initiation (potential rockfall source areas) with a runout analysis by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,623 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHomogeneous Bubbles during Jet Impingement QuenchingM. A. Islam, S. F. AhmedProblem statement: Jet impingement quenching has a very effective and large cooling potential and is a very effective means of cooling for many applications. It gives rise to heterogeneous and/or homogeneous nucleation of bubbles, which is yet to be explored. Approach: Analytically investigate the phenomenon that happened during a brief contact of a water jet impinging on a hot surface. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,171 accessesView PDFCite
