Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Asthma Control in Children During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Cross-Sectional Study at a Pediatric Hospital in Marrakech (Morroco)Maryem Labyad, Karima El Fakiri, Abdelmounaim Baslam et al.Effective management of childhood asthma relies on regular and objective assessments to ensure optimal control. However, the implementation of containment measures during the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the postponement of pediatric consultations, posing significant challenges for children with asthma. This study aimed to evaluate asthma control among children attending pediatric consultations at the mother-child hospital in Marrakech during the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 5 Jun 2024 · 4,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParameters Optimization of Adaptive Cashew Shelling Cutter Based on BP Neural Network and Genetic AlgorithmYun-Fei Fu, Jie Gong, Hui Huang et al.The aim of this study is to determine the optimal parameters of the adaptive cashew shelling cutter. To meet the requirements of cashew nut processing enterprises, this study takes the whole-kernel rate as the optimization objective. Let the three main parameters of the adaptive cashew shelling cutter: The distance between upper and lower cutters, the pre-pressure of the spring and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 1 Nov 2015 · 7,903 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFixture Setup through Object Notation for Implicit Test FixturesDouglas Hiura Longo, Beatriz Wilges, Patrícia Vilain, Renato CislaghiThis paper presents an approach to the development of fixture setup code through an objects notation that is applied on implicit test fixtures. This approach is integrated with a management mechanism to call the fixture setup code from the JUnit test framework. The objective of this work is to enable the reuse of fixtures across multiple test classes avoiding the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 16 Sep 2015 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) for Use in Flexible PavementAhmed Ebrahim Abu El-Maaty, Abdulla Ibrahim ElmohrDue to economical reasons and the need for environmental conservatism, there has been an increasing shift towards the use of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) materials in the pavement construction industry. The majority of HMA mixtures in Egypt are produced only from virgin materials although there are about 4 million tons per year of reclaimed asphalt materials, due to continuous pavement … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2015 · 9,213 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTuning of a Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller using Multi-Objective Non Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization Applied to pH Control in Continuous Stirred Tank ReactorC. Agees Kumar, N. Kesavan NairProblem statement: Most of the control engineering problems are characterized by several, contradicting, conflicting objectives, which have to be satisfied simultaneously. Two widely used methods for finding the optimal solution to such problems are aggregating to a single criterion and using Pareto-optimal solutions. Approach: Non-Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (NSPSO) based approach is used in the design of multiobjective … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 6,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestment, Taxes and the Cost of Capital: An Euler Equation Specification TestHuntley SchallerProblem statement: Previous studies (primarily employing goodness-of-fit tests) have found it difficult to provide clear and direct evidence that taxes and the interest rate have a strong influence on investment.
