Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Researches Examines the Wing Shapes to Reduce Vortex and WakeNicolae Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuIt is common to see clouds in the form of the sky, known as contrails, which are behind the engines of a reaction plan. What is not always visible is a wind whirl that comes out of the top of each wing - like two small horizontal tornadoes - leaving behind a turbulent awakening behind the vehicle. Awakening is a … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jun 2018 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF TEST PROTOCOLS FOR THE ANALYSIS OF MAGNETO-RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF FIELD-RESPONSIVE BITUMINOUS BINDERSEzio Santagata, Orazio Baglieri, Lucia Tsantilis, Arianna VercelliMagneto-rheological fluids are materials that exhibit a significant change in their rheological properties in the presence of a magnetic field. Because of such a field-dependent behavior, they can act as smart materials in applications in which changeable performances are desired. In road pavement engineering, the use of bitumen-based magneto-rheological fluids may open innovative scenarios related to the construction of smart … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 20 Jan 2014 · 6,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA HYBRID INTELLIGENT MODEL FOR SOFTWARE COST ESTIMATIONWei Lin Du, Luiz Fernando Capretz, Ali Bou Nassif, Danny HoAccurate software development effort estimation is critical to the success of software projects. Although many techniques and algorithmic models have been developed and implemented by practitioners, accurate software development effort prediction is still a challenging endeavor in the field of software engineering, especially in handling uncertain and imprecise inputs and collinear characteristics. In this study, a hybrid intelligent model combining … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2013 · 7,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Ensemble Prediction Algorithms for Detecting Faulty Modules in Object Oriented Systems Using Quality MetricsM. Punithavalli, C. NeelamegamThe high usage of software system poses high quality demand from users, which results in increased software complexity. To address these complexities, software quality engineering methods should be updated accordingly and enhance their quality assuring methods. Fault prediction, a sub-task of SQE, is designed to solve this issue and provide a strategy to identify faulty parts of a program, so … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 20 Dec 2012 · 6,435 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgro-Process Intensification through Synthetic Rhizosphere Media for Nitrogen Fixation and Yield Enhancement in PlantsG. Akay, D. R. BurkeProblem statement: In order to combat global warming and the emerging Food, Energy and Water shortages (FEWs), several approaches have been adopted, including genetic engineering and farming practices. Biomass based energy technology will further stress food and water resources and hence novel holistic approaches to FEWs should be designed. Approach: A novel technique (Agro-Process Intensification, A-PI) which simultaneously addresses FEWs … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 15 Mar 2012 · 8,599 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Site Specific Mutational Effect on Transcription Initiation at Escherichia coli PromoterS. Kannan, M. Krishnan, S. Sundarraj et al.Problem statement: It is widely accepted thought that the weak promoters control the RNA synthesis and play regulatory role in complex genetic networks in bacterial system. An experiment had been designed to address whether mutations in the -16/-17 region affect the rate of transcription at an activator-independent promoter in E. coli or not? Approach: The aim of this study was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLife Long Learning: Seniors in Second Life ContinuumC. D. Seals, W. Moses, J. Nyagwencha et al.Senior citizens represented the fastest growing demographic worldwide. As indicated in the Year 2000 US Census, there were 35 million people 65 or older in the US and by 2030, it was estimated that there were about 70 million older adults in the US alone. With the older population growing rapidly and being increasingly exposed to computers and technology, it … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeo-Seismic Environmental Aspects Affecting Tailings Dams FailuresJuan M. Mayoral, Miguel P. RomoSeismic performance evaluations of tailings dams are essential for characterizing the geo-environmental risks posed by these earthen structures, which should include the geotechnical hazards implied by slope instability failure, free board loss and the potential release of contaminants. The observed damage is more important when liquefaction occurs on the dam body and foundation, which often leads to cracking, settlements, tilting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristics of Effective Dynamics and its Use in Developing the Product Quality and Proceeds in Inclusively FirmNasir Al KloubControlling product size type and quality is a set of technical, technological, organizational and preparatory procedures correlated in one process. Indexes for the demand for product in foreign and local markets vary according to its quality, and consequently technological processes should guarantee and warrant protects of subtle qualities and quality indexes. Securing quality of the product in all industrial sectors … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,245 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA UDDI Search Engine for SVG Federated Medical Imaging Web ServicesSabah Mohammed, Jinan Fiaidhi, Marshal HahnWith more and more medical web services appearing on the web, web service's discovery mechanism becomes essential. UDDI is an online registry standard to facilitate the discovery of business partners and services. However, most medical imaging applications exist within their own protected domain and were never designed to participate and operate with other applications across the web. However, private UDDI … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 7,008 accessesView PDFCite
