Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHazards from Pyroclastic Density Currents at Mount Bamenda (West-Cameroon, Cameroon Volcanic Line): Mapping and Assessment by AMS MethodMerlin Gountié Dedzo, Pierre Kamgang, Emmanuel Njonfang, Ghislain Zangmo TefogoumHazards related to pyroclastic density current continue to raise victims on many volcanoes in our planet. The Cameroon is not spared to this type of hazard because deposits of pyroclastic flows and surges are found on Mount Bamenda; products of this volcano are relatively young (27-0 Ma). Besides Mount Bamenda, Mounts Bambouto and Oku are the only volcanoes located in … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 15 Oct 2015 · 7,871 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEMERGING TRENDS IN ADAPTIVE COMPUTATION FOR MOBIQUITOUS SYSTEMSJesus FriginalThe future is in networked embedded systems. This affirmation is based on the principle that networked embedded systems will make possible the development of more intelligent living, work, entertainment, energy production systems and transport environments. It is estimated that the number of networked smart objects on a planetary scale will increase beyond20 billion units by 2020, thus promoting the emergence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 19 Aug 2014 · 8,309 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENHANCED CAPILLARY RISE OF WETTING LIQUIDS IN REDUCED GRAVITATIONAL SHIELDING UNDER MICROGRAVITY CONDITIONSGeorge D. Zouganelis, Ioannis Gkigkitzis, Ioannis HaranasWe study the capillary rise of wetting in liquids by slightly modifying Ponomarenko’s result, a recently derived and observed t1/3 law, without omitting the corresponding gravity term and therefore we find hnew (t)≅0.9085hPon (t) instead, which corresponds to a 9% difference. Furthermore, in order to examine the effect of corrected gravity, we extend the result on the surface of a … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2014 · 7,900 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA MULTI ATTRIBUTE RANKING MECHANISM FOR PEER-TO-PEER NETWORKSSheila Anand, B. SwaminathanP2P systems are envisioned to play a greater role in collaborative applications. P2P environments remove the challenging task of using servers for information sharing. Emerging collaborative P2P systems require discovery and utilization of multi-attribute, distributed and dynamic group of resources to achieve greater tasks beyond conventional file and processor cycle sharing. The process of selection of a peer for collaborative … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Feb 2014 · 6,879 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Lense-Thirring Effect in the Anomalistic Period of Celestial BodiesIoannis Haranas, Omiros Ragos, Ioannis GkigkitzisIn the weak field and slow motion approximation, the general relativistic field equations are linearized, resembling those of the electromagnetic theory. In a way analogous to that of a moving charge generating a magnetic field, a mass-energy current can produce a gravitomagnetic field. In this contribution, the motion of a secondary celestial body is studied under the influence of the … …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 9 Dec 2013 · 8,457 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE THEORY OF METARELATIVITY: BEYOND ALBERT EINSTEIN’S RELATIVITYAbdo Abou JaoudeThe theory of metarelativity is a system of equations written to take into consideration additional effects in the universe and about the matter inside it. The study begins with Albert Einstein’s theory of special relativity and it develops a system of equations which lead us to further explanations and to a new physics paradigm. Like special relativity which was created … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCassava Chip Drying by Using a Small-Scale Hot-Air Microwave OvenPatomsok WilaiponCharacteristics of cassava microwave hot-air drying were investigated in a 2-planes microwave hot-air dryer. The drying experiments were carried out at two levels of sample surface temperature set-points viz. 70 and 80°C respectively. Cassava (Rayong-9) with 2.5 kg weight and 61% moisture content on wet basis was dried in the dryer for about 5-5.3 h. It was found that the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2013 · 7,569 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Gravity Field of a CubeJames Michael Chappell, Mark John Chappell, Azhar Iqbal, Derek AbbottWe calculate the Newtonian gravitational potential and field of a cubic, homogeneous asteroid and we apply it to the orbit of possible satellites. Large astronomical objects such as stars or planets, naturally tend to form spherical shapes due to the dominance of the gravitational forces, but as a thought experiment, we consider the properties of a planet in the form … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 27 Mar 2013 · 15,328 accessesView PDFCite
