Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Petroleum Hydrocarbons By Gas Chromatography in Colombian Waters and SoilsC.. González, S. Roa, A. Suspes et al.Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPHs) were required by the Colombian Environmental Authorities. However, the great diversity of hydrocarbon sources, in addition to the variety of available techniques and analytical methods had created confusion among the users of the data in regards to the appropriate methodologies. This study presents the results obtained in the method validation for the determination of TPHs in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 20 Jun 2012 · 9,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTunnel Static Behavior Assessed by a Probabilistic Approach to the Back-AnalysisClaudio Oggeri, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: The steps of the validation procedure of the project of a tunnel are briefly illustrated in this study, starting from the geological and structural surveys on the excavation walls and the measurement of the physical and mechanical parameters during the excavation works. Unfortunately, however, the knowledge of the rock mass, which is fundamental to the project, is usually … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 4 Jun 2012 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Discrete Event Simulator for Extensive Defense Mechanism for Denial of Service Attacks AnalysisMaryam Tanha, Seyed Dawood Sajjadi Torshizi, S. ShamalaProblem statement: Seeking for defense mechanisms against low rate Denial of Service (DoS) attacks as a new generation of DoS attacks has received special attention during recent years. As a decisive factor, evaluating the performance of the offered mitigation techniques based on different metrics for determining the viability and ability of these countermeasures requires more research. Approach: The development of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 21 Mar 2012 · 7,470 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantification of Zolpidem in Canine PlasmaMario Giorgi, Alessandra Gavazza, Hyoin YunProblem statement: Zolpidem is a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic agent currently used in human medicine. In contrast to benzodiazepines, zolpidem preferentially binds with the GABAA complex ϖ1 receptors while poorly interacting with the other ϖ receptor complexes. Recent studies have suggested that ZP may be used to initiate sedation and diminish severe anxiety responses in dogs. The aim of the present study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2012 · 7,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSegmentation of Ureteric and Bladder Calculi in Ultrasound ImagesS. SridharProblem statement: The framework for segmenting calculi in ureter and bladder using ultrasound images is proposed in this study. Calculi are due to abnormal collection of certain chemicals like oxalate, phosphate and uric acid. These calculi can be present in kidney, urethra or in urinary bladder. The extraction of calculi in medical images is a difficult task as no standard … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 27 Feb 2012 · 6,917 accessesView PDFCite

Approach: In this study, we present a design approach of FPGA based Controller for electromechanical system. In this way, we present solutions obtained by Hardware/Software Code sign methodology targeted for the implementation of a motor control drive system using … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,978 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Hydro-Alcoholic Extract of Cucurbita Maxima, Fruit Juice and Glibenclamide on Blood Glucose in Diabetic RatsV. K. Lal, P. P. Gupta, Awanish Pandey, P. TripathiProblem statement: Cucurbita maxima has been used traditionally in Mexico, China and India as antidiabetic agents. Approach: The present study was to evaluate the hypoglycemic activity of fruit juice and hydro-alcoholic extract of Cucurbita maxima for validation of its folkloric use. Results: Hypoglycemic activity was evaluated on streptozotocin induced diabetic rats at the doses of 100 and 200 mg kg-1 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 26 Nov 2011 · 8,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of Novel Artificial Neural Network Based Stock Market Forecasting System on Field-Programmable Gate ArraysMd. Syedul Amin, Md. Mamun, Fazida Hanim Hashim et al.Problem statement: Multiagent system is very proficient and has rules well-suited for financial forecast with its neural network. In financial forecasting, the approach for rules extractions is less pertinent and involves algorithms which are complex. The unsupervised network method lacks in comprehensibility and leads to ambiguity. Approach: The application of neural network technology to real-time processing of financial market analysis … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 12 Sep 2011 · 7,627 accessesView PDFCite
