Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study on Nuclear Blast Overpressure on Buildings and other infrastructures using Geospatial TechnologyC. Vijayaraghavan, D. Thirumalaivasan, R. VenkatesanAn Improvised Nuclear Device or nuclear bomb of yield 10 kiloton to 20 kiloton explodes in any major city due to terrorism or any other reason can cause catastrophic damages on the building's and other infrastructures and also shutting down of critical life-safety systems.. The explosion may produce blast overpressure, thermal radiation and harmful instant and delayed nuclear radiations. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 15 Aug 2012 · 8,103 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Estimation of Rainfall using Fuzzy Set-Genetic Algorithms ModelTeerawat Thongwan, Anongrit Kangrang, Sahalaph HomwuttiwongProblem statement: Damaged by floods are natural disasters that have violence cause significant damage and economic and social. If we can prevent disasters that may occur in advance is important. So an estimated rainfall data is important information for prevention disasters. Approach: The objective of this study is to apply a fuzzy set theory to estimate rainfall. The genetic algorithm … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2011 · 8,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost Comparisons in the Rice Disinfestations between Infrared Radiations Heating Application and Chemical ApplicationWithaya Insorn, Sukangkana Lee, Nalin Piantong, Adun JanyalertadunProblem statement: Rice is one of importance export goods especially Hom Mali Rice. Therefore, rice storage is very important. The main enemy of Hom Mali Rice is Rice Weevil. It is a small insect and grows fast with small amount of food eating. Its deteriorate rice by bite both internal and external rice kernel resulting in damage and loss of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,649 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Total Ionizing Dose on Bipolar Junction TransistorChee Fuei Pien, Haider F. Abdul Amir, Saafie Salleh, Azali MuhammadProblem statement: The amount of ionizing radiation that Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) devices encounter during their lifecycle degrades both of their functional and electrical parameter performances. The different radiation environments either in space, high energy physics experiments, nuclear environment or fabrication process as well as for standard terrestrial operation possess an impact on the devices. Approach: In this research, analytical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIR Laser Plasma Interaction with GlassRabia Qindeel, Noriah Bidin, Yaacob Mat DaudThe interaction of laser plasma with respect to glass surface is reported in this paper. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser was used as ablation source. Glass material is utilized as target specimen. Aluminum plate is used as a rotating substrate. The dynamic expansion of the plasma was visualized by using CCD video camera and permanently recorded via image processing system. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,921 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Different Doses of Irradiation on Oxidant and Antioxidant Systems in the Brain of Guinea PigsYildiz Guney, Ayse Bilgihan, Ayse Hicsonmez et al.The purpose of this study was to establish the impact of oxidative stress in the damaged brain tissue, irradiated with two different dose levels, a single dose of 8 and 15 Gy. In addition, the histological findings caused by ionizing radiation in the early period was investigated. The levels of MDA, GSH, SOD, CAT, GSH-Px and selenium were estimated in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of Micronuclei in Mice Lymphocytes Exposed to Microwave and TolueneS. B. Mortazavi, A. Safari, A. Khavanin et al.Increasing applications of microwave radiation are of great concern with regard to public health. Several studies have been conducted detect effects of microwave exposure genetic material leading to negative or questionable results. The Micronucleus (MN) assay which is proved to be a useful method for detection of radiation exposure-induced cytogenetic damage was used in the present study to investigate the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,617 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResidual Defects in Silicon Implanted with Boron and Phosphorous IonsM. JadanAccumulation of radiation defects in Si implanted with B+ or P+ ions, and formation of the residual extended defects (dislocation loops, rod-like defects) in the process of successive thermal treatment have been studied. The anomalies observed in the formation of the extended defects are associated with the elastic stresses in the damaged regions affecting the process of radiation defects clustering. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCritical Aging Segments of Power Transmission LineH. H. Goh, N. E. Chin, Q. S. Chua et al.Nowadays, blackouts or sags of a conductor are threatening the safety and stable run of the power transmission lines. These phenomena happen due to the environmental conditions which change over the time, such as aging or temperature variations, precipitation and hotspots of power transmission lines as a result of extreme weather conditions. A precipitation condition result loses of heat from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2013 · 9,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHormetic Triggers for Intervention in Aging, Disease and TraumaJoan Smith SonnebornHormesis refers to the ability of a chemical or physical agent to condition the physiological state of an organism to tolerate stress with low doses of otherwise harmful agents. Evolutionary evidence shows that the survival and longevity of species hinge on their optimal ability to resist stress challenge. Hormesis is a potent strategy to stimulate latent repair processes to tolerate … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,898 accessesView PDFCite
