Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analysis of the Output and Employment Conversion Matrices of Australia's EconomyAbbas Valadkhani, Tim RobinsonBased on two snapshots taken from the Australian economy, this study quantifies the impacts of final demand aggregates on output and employment in various sectors using the 1989 and 1997 conversion matrices. The sectoral output and employment are linked with final demand deliveries in such a way that one can measure the impacts on changes in each component of aggregate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonstrous Hazards Produced by High Radioactivity Levels Around Assiut Thermal Power PlantHany El-Gamal, Mohamed El-Azab Farid, Abdulla Ibrahim Abdel Mageed et al.The natural radioactivity level of heavy oil, ash and soil samples around Assiut Thermal Power Plant (ATPP) in Egypt was determined using gamma ray spectrometry. The average concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in fly ash were found to be 2307±143, 1281±80 and 1218±129 Bq kg-1, respectively, while the corresponding values in soil samples were 2670±107, 1401±78 and 1495±100 Bq … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 17 Sep 2013 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCold Crystallization Behavior of a Zr44-Ti11-Cu10-Ni10-Be25 Metal Glassy AlloyRaffaella Aversa, Daniela Parcesepe, Francesco Tamburrino et al.Liquid crystals, a substance that flows like a liquid but has some degree of ordering in the arrangement of its molecules. "Depending on temperature or the presence of an electric potential difference, molecules in a liquid crystal can either be randomly, partially or completely aligned."Isothermal cycles of the metalized metallic alloy Zr44-Ti11-Cu10-Ni10-Be25 (cold crystallization obtained by heating the glassy glass … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 19 Jun 2018 · 8,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA General Strategy to Enhance Upconversion luminescence in Rare-Earth-Ion-Doped Oxide NanocrystalsGuanying Chen, Lei XuWe report a general strategy to enhance upconversion luminescence from rare-earth-doped oxide nanocrystals through tailoring the local crystal filed around rare earth ions. We show that upconversion luminescence from oxide nanocrystals of various host lattice (Y2O3, Gd2O3 and ZnO) and of diverse rare-earth-ions (such as Er3+, Yb3+/Er3+, Yb3+/Ho3+ and Yb3+/Tm3+) was enhanced by orders of magnitude through an introduction of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2016 · 7,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOperation of Enterprise Resource Planning System Implementation Compatibility Towards Technical AdvancementJ. Venkatesh, C. Aarthy, S. Thenmozhi, P. BalasubramanieThe Execution of ERP systems has been perplexing factor for many firms. Many establishments have accepted that the operation of ERP system is a massive hindrance until the flow of process is organized carefully. As information technology is booming its prerequisite for organizations to realize the prominence of technical advancement and compatibility in work environment. A complete review was done … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 1 Apr 2013 · 6,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModeling Positive Time Series Data: A Neglected Aspect in Time Series CoursesMaman A. Djauhari, Lee Siaw Li, Rohayu Mohd SallehSomething has been forgotten in time series courses, in particular, when dealing with positive datasets. To describe the pattern hidden in this type of datasets, before we use a sophisticated method of modeling such as Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), we propose to check first whether the data represent a Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) process. If it is affirmative, unlike … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 7 · 1 Jul 2016 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUse of Surface Energy to evaluate Adhesion of Bituminous Crack Sealants to AggregatesEllie H. Fini, Imad L. Al-Qadi, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Jean-Francois MassonProblem statement: The performance of bituminous sealants in the field is partly controlled by properties and strength of the sealant-aggregate interface. The thermodynamic work of adhesion represents energy required for reversible separation of the two materials at the interface. The study of fracture includes the energy required for both reversible and irreversible processes during separation. Excess of work of facture … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite
