Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINVESTIGATING EFFECTS OF AMINE BASED MODIFIER ON RECYCLED ASPHALT SHINGLES BLENDINGGovinda Sedhay, Elham H. Fini, Taher Abu-LebdehA laboratory study was conducted to investigate the effects of Amine based modifier on rheological characteristics of particle filled viscous medium such as asphalt binder in presence of Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS). In this study, virgin asphalt binder (PG 64-22), three different percentages (20, 30 and 40%) of tear-off shingles and modifiers; Rediset, Evotherm and Bio-binder were used. The tear-off … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2014 · 8,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAUTOMATIC SEGMENTATION OF SKIN LESIONS USING HISTOGRAM THRESHOLDINGNidhal Khdhair El Abbadi, Abbas Hussien MiryAutomatic lesion segmentation is an important part of computer-based image analysis of pigmented skin lesions. Currently, there is a great interest in the development of Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems for dermoscopic images. The segmentation step is one of the most important ones, since its accuracy determines the eventual success or failure of a CAD system. This study introduced new method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2013 · 7,559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDie Radius Affecting Sheet Metal Extrusion Quality for Fine Blanking ProcessChatkaew Suriyapha, Suthep Yiemchaiyaphum, Bopit BubphachotProblem statement: Sheet metal extrusion is a process in which the punch penetrates one surface of the sheet metal material to cause it to extrude and flow toward the outlet of the die. Therefore, the process can invent different thickness of sheet metal work piece. From these advantages on the sheet metal extrusion, nowadays, it is generally used in many … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,126 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistological Study of Cervix Uteri in Caspian Miniature HorseM. Rezaian, S. HamediProblem statement: Uterine cervix which separates the uterus from the vagina, shows remarkable anatomical and histological differences among mammalian species. Since no cleared observations have been found in regards with the Caspian miniature horses’ cervix, the aim of the present study was to supplement this missing information which could be helpful for providing a stricter basis in detecting reproductive diseases … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSerological Evaluation of Brucella abortus S99 Lipopolysaccharide Extracted by an Optimized MethodAli Sharifat Salmani, Seyed Davar Siadat, Mohammad Reza Fallahian et al.Problem statement: Brucellosis is a globally found infectious disease and there is no licensed vaccine against human brucellosis. The present study carried-out to evaluate the potency of our modified extracted lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of B. abortus to elicit specific anti-Brucella antibodies in animal model (Rabbit) as a part of a candidate vaccine for brucellosis. Lipopolysaccharide is one of the main virulence … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,080 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Polishing of Cutting-Edge Polymer-on-Glass for Pigtailing PreparationMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Fazlinda Ab-Aziz, Noor Azie Azura Mohd Arif et al.Problem statement: The high quality of cutting-edge surface is important in optical waveguide's efficiency. The perfect polishing of end surface is significant to deliver the best quality of light waves and minimize the device losses such as insertion loss and return loss. Hence, this research is concern on the parameters in polishing SU-8 polymer to increase the efficiency of waveguide. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,148 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring System for Uninterruptible Power SupplyS.A.Z. Murad, M.N.Md. Isa, N.A. RahmanIn industrial process today, reliability of equipment is very important. Power supply must be able to cater the need of industrial process. In case of power failure, backup power supply system must be able to support the main process plant. This is to ensure smooth operation and product quality.
