Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuffering Capacity of Fast-Growing Species and Curing Time of UF Resin Modified With Zinc Borate and Monoammonium PhosphateIzran Kamal, Koh Mok Poh, Tan Yu Eng et al.Problem statement: Occupying a suitable hot pressing time for particleboard fabrication seems very tricky for manufacturers of the wood-based panel. Longer or shorter pressing times can affect physical and mechanical properties of the produced particleboards and that is why extra care should be given on this matter. Longer pressing time can cause resin in a particleboard to over-cure whereas shorter … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,784 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Linear Switched Reluctance Machine: Analysis and Experimental VerificationN. C. Lenin, R. ArumugamThe important problems to be solved in Linear Switched Reluctance Machines (LSRMs) are: (1) to design the shape and size of poles in stator and translator cores; (2) to optimize their geometrical configuration. A novel stator geometry for LSRMs that improved the force profile was presented in this study. In the new geometry, pole shoes were affixed on the stator … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoconut Oil Based Hybrid Fuels as Alternative Fuel for Diesel EnginesPranil Singh, Jagjit Khurma, Anirudh SinghProblem statement: The use of vegetable oils as a fuel in diesel engines causes some problems due to their high viscosity compared with diesel. Various techniques and methods are used to solve the problems resulting from high viscosity. Approach: One of the techniques is the preparation of a microemulsion fuel, called a hybrid fuel. In this study, hybrid fuels consisting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreatest Common Divisor and Least Common Multiple Matrices on Factor Closed Sets in a Principal Ideal DomainA. N. El-Kassar, S. S. Habre, Y. A. AwadProblem statement: Let T be a set of n distinct positive integers, x1, x2, ..., xn. The n×n matrix [T] having (xi, xj), the greatest common divisor of xi and xj, as its (i,j)-entry is called the greatest common divisor (GCD) matrix on T. The matrix [[T]] whose (i,j)-entry is [xi, xj], the least common multiple of xi and xj, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,380 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantum Key Distribution Using Decoy State ProtocolSellami Ali, Shuhairi Saharudin, M. R.B. WahiddinProblem statement: Quantum key distribution provides unconditional security guaranteed by the fundamental laws of quantum physics. Unfortunately, for real-life experimental set-ups, which mainly based on faint laser pulses, the occasional production of multi-photons and channel loss make it possible for sophisticated eavesdroppers to launch various subtle eavesdropping attacks including the Photon Number Splitting (PNS) attack. The decoy state protocols recently … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractError Resistant Real-Time Transport Control ProtocolS. Shahbazi, K. Jumari, M. IsmailProblem statement: Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) protocol has been the subject of various criticisms due its problematic performance in large-scale networks. S-RTCP is a protocol with high potential as it has proved to be able to solve many problems of RTCP. It has numerous flaws on its own. This study aimed at dealing with flaws of S-RTCP and improving … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Metric-Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector: A Routing Protocol over Wireless Mesh NetworksMd. Arafatur Rahman, Farhat Anwar, Md. Saiful AzadProblem statement: Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) is an emerging technology for wireless environment. Since WMNs are permanent or semi-permanent network, an efficient and reliable path establishment is the core concern for such type of networks. Several performance metrics has been designed for WMNs such as Expected Transmission Count (ETX), Expected Transmission Time (ETT), interference Aware Routing Metric (iAWARE), Link Type … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Performance Monitoring Service for Dynamically Composed Media Web ServicesG. Maria Kalavathy, P. SeethalakshmiProblem statement: As distributed real-time multimedia services are accessed by users from different locations, the run-time performance must be managed and monitored to get a clear view of how media web services perform within their operational environments and to perform control actions to modify and adjust the their behavior. Otherwise it will provide negative effects on the reputation of service … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,192 accessesView PDFCite
