Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Evaluation of Anti-Stripping Additives Mixing in Road Surface Pavement MaterialsTienfuan Kerh, Yu-Min Wang, Yulern LinMost road surfaces in Taiwan are paved with asphalt concrete but the phenomena of rutting, cracking and stripping of the pavement are frequently occurring due to the effects of traffic flow, thermal variation and water erosion caused by rain. In this study, a series of experiments were performed to examine the effectiveness of anti-stripping fillers, which include; rock flour, rock … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstructing Longest Lifetime Route in Mobile Ad-hoc NetworksFredrick Mtenzi, Yingyu WanA mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an autonomous system consisting of mobile hosts connected by wireless links. Every host can move in any direction at any speed and time. This leads to a dynamic topology as hosts move constantly. MANET broadcast messages to each hosts, the transmission of one host can be heard by all hosts in its communication … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 19 Oct 2005 · 4,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model for Bioaccumulation of Metals in Crassostrea virginica from Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Elijah Johnson, Larry RobinsonKinetics of bioaccumulation of the trace metals (Cd and Zn) by C. virginica were investigated in this study. A computer program, Oyster Bioaccumulation Model (OBM), was developed to simulate the accumulation of the metals from both dissolved (water column) and particulate (food) phases by C. virginica. The model is based on two main attributes: (1) the oyster biological characteristics such … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHuman Latrophilin-2 is Expressed in the Cytotrophoblast and Syncytiotrophoblast of Placenta and in Endothelial CellsGunda Herberth, Anke Stein, Jens Glienke et al.Latrophilin-2 is a member of the family of adhesion-GPCRs that is characterised by a long N-terminus which contains motifs identified in proteins involved in cell adhesion. We were interested in determining the expression pattern of human latrophilin-2 and to perform a biochemical characterisation of this protein. The expression pattern of latrophilin-2 was analysed in human organs, tissues and cell lines. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 8,058 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Plasmid in Production of Acetobacter Xylinum BiofilmsAbbas Rezaee, Sanaz Solimani, Mehdi ForozandemogadamAcetobacter xylinum has the ability to produce cellulotic biofilms. Bacterial cellulose is expected to be used in many industrial or biomedical materials for its unique characteristics. A. xylinum contains a complex system of plasmid DNA molecules. A 44 kilobases (kb) plasmid was isolated in wild type of A. xylinum. To improve the cellulose producing ability of A. xylinum, role of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of A.C. Impedance Spectroscopic and Cyclic Voltammetric Behavior of Some Heterocarbonyl Compounds in Both Aprotic and Aqueous MediaFarouk A. RashwanThe electrochemical behavior of eosin, isatin and alloxan in aqueous KNO3 and NaClO4 solutions on the Hanging Mercury Drop Electrode [HMDE] and in aprotic DMF and CH3CN on the Pt-disk electrode at 298 K was investigated using the Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and the Electrochemical Impedance Techniques (EIS). In the CV experiment, the electroreduction of eosin in both aqueous and non-aqueous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Analysis of Furniture Hardware Industry in TurkeyTuncer DilikFurniture hardware plays an important role in the appearance, comfort and function of the furniture. In this study, Turkish furniture hardware companies were examined for their technical and economical characteristics, production materials, standards and surface treating methods, legal structures as well as foreign and domestic trade policies. Altogether, 67 companies accounting for 80% of the hardware production were examined. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 7,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Removal of 4-Chlorophenol and Dichloroacetic Acid in Water Using Ti-, Zr- and Ti/Zr-Pillared Bentonites as PhotocatalystMohamed Houari, Mohamed Saidi, Djamel Tabet et al.Heterogeneous photocatalysis could be alternative remediation technology for water since it does not need the addition of any chemicals and it is suitable for treating low concentrations of pollutant. Although the TiO2 Degussa P 25 is most used photocatalyst its photonic efficiency still low and its recovery from water is considered as an awkward process. In this study the effect … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 7,523 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBusy Period Analysis of a Man-machine System Operating Subject To Different Physical ConditionsG S. Mokaddis, M. L. Tawfek, S. A.M. ElhssiaThis study deals with some characteristics of a single-unit of a man-machine system operating under different physical conditions. The failure, repair and change of physical conditions (good-poor) are stochastically independent random variables each having an arbitrary distribution. The system analysed by some Markov process technique. The busy period, expected number of visits by the repairman and the cost per unit … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeb-based Digital Video Sequencing SystemKhalid A. KaabnehIn order to access and retrieve Internet shared videos, there is a clear need for structuring to decrease search and loading time.
