Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPerformance Evaluation of a Heavy Duty Chisel Plow at Various Tillage Depth and Forward SpeedsS. A. Al-Suhaibani, A.E. GhalyProblem statement: Tillage is a process of creating a desirable soil condition for seed germination and growth. The tillage of soil is considered to be one of the biggest farm operations as the tillage operation requires the most energy on the farm. Manufacturers of tillage implements tend to overdesign their products due to a lack of the proper testing and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2010 · 8,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Kinetic Parameters of a Super Heavy Chisel Plow Under Various Operating ConditionsS. A. Al-Suhaibani, A. Al-Janobi, A. E. GhalyProblem statement: Tillage is a process of creating a desirable soil condition for seed germination and growth. The tillage of soil is considered to be one of the biggest farm operations as the tillage operation requires the most energy on the farm. Chisel plow is widely used by farmers as a primary tillage tool. Performance data for chisel plow operation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSimplified 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 author namesMicroarray Analysis of Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Responses to Bacterial LipopolysaccharideJoe Minta James, J. Yun, Sandy Der, Shikha RanaAccumulating evidence suggest a causal role of bacterial and viral infections in atherogenesis. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to stimulate resting vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with the production of inflammatory cytokines and modulation of quiescent cells to the proliferative and synthetic phenotype. To comprehensively identify biologically important genes associated with LPS-induced SMC phenotype modulation, we compared the transcriptomes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAn "Expert System" For Stereoscopic 3D Visualization (with out the Application of Conventional Attachments to the Eyes) of Computer Acquired and Computer Generated StereopairsN. Sandya Rani, V. Vaithya NathanProblem statement: Though stereoscopic 3D visualization technology has made considerable progress, it was always associated with eye attachments, like wearing color glasses, wearing Polaroid glasses, using timed shutters. Approach: This has considerably retarded the popularity of 3D visualization technology. Though there are discrete references in the literature for developing stereoscopic 3D visualization without application of glasses, these methods involve transferring … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMethodology for Selecting the Locaiton of an Optimum Viewing Point for an Ideal 3D Perspective View of a Given 3D EnvironmentN. Sandya Rani, V. VaithyaNathanLiterature review reveals that there exists, many methods for 3D visualization of a given object or a set of objects[1,2]. To name a few commonly used methods, we have Stereoscopic 3D visualization[3], Cross eye visualization, Parallel eye visualization, Perspective 3D visualization etc. An optimu location of the viewing point for an ideal 3D perspective view is attempted in this paper. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Technology for Agriculture at Extreme Altitudes: Design and Evaluation of a Sprinkler Irrigation System in a Peruvian High Andean CommunityJuan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Daniel Olivier Carranza Lizana et al.In high-altitude agroecosystems, erratic rainfall patterns and steep topography severely constrain crop productivity by exposing plants to soil water deficits during critical phenological stages. This study aimed to enhance the productivity of eleven staple and horticultural crops corn (Zea mays), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), eggplant (Solanum melongena), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), carrot (Daucus carota), barley (Hordeum vulgare), celery (Apium … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 2 Oct 2026 · 645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Methodology for Determining the Nutritional Value of Pasture Feed Considering the Fractions of Easily Digestible Carbohydrates in the Desert Zone of Southern KazakhstanAmanbay Karynbayev, Beybit Nasiyev, Kuzembayuly Zharylkasyn et al.Due to the absence of easily digestible carbohydrates (sugar and starch, which are of great importance in animal nutrition) in the existing methods of assessing the nutritional value of feed, the need to include them in the methods for improving the overall nutritional value is a particularly urgent matter in feed manufacture for desert livestock industries. The study was carried … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 4 Sep 2023 · 4,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent Growth Conditions of Populus Diversifolia Schrenk and Populus Pruinosa Schrenk in the Syr-Darya ValleyPolina Vesselova, Karina Makhmudova et al.In the context of urbanization of territories and the intensification of agriculture, the biological diversity of animals and plants in their habitats is degrading. The purpose of the study is to determine the edaphic factors affecting the growth of Populus diversifolia Schrenk and Populus pruinosa Schrenk, as well as anthropogenic factors affecting their conservation in the Syr-Darya valley (Kazakhstan).
