Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards Growing Bario Rice on Lowland Soils: A Preliminary Nitrogen and Potassium Fertilization TrialMuyang Tawie Sulok Kevin, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Wan Yahaya Wan Asrina et al.A pot study was carried with the following objectives: (i) To investigate N and K uptake of Bario rice on Bekenu series (Tipik Tualemkuts), and (ii) To investigate N and K use efficiency of Bario rice on Bekenu series. Treatments evaluated were: (i) Bario rice under fertilized condition (T1), and (ii) Bario rice under unfertilized condition (T0). The experiment was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison Between the New and the Old Versions of Jordan Seismic CodeM.A. MusmarThe study comes as a vital step to shed120 light upon the purport of the recently published version of Jordan Seismic code (JSC), and how the drawbacks of the old version are surpassed. The new JSC code oversteps the old provisions, in that input parameters now have pronounced and significant physical meanings. The study concludes that the conversion from service … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,875 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRainfall Attenuation and Rainfall Rate Measurements in Malaysia Comparison with Prediction ModelsMandeep Singh Jit Singh, Syed Idris Syed Hassan, Mohd Fadzil AinAttenuation due to rain is a primary cause of communication impairment on satellite-earth paths, especially above 10GHz. Rainfall is a serious source of attenuation at such a frequency. This paper presents the characteristics of rain distribution in USM based on measured one minute rain rate. For attenuation of rain, predictions models like ITU and VIHT (Variable Isotherm Height Technique) model … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Simulation and Parametric Studies of Perfobond Rib ConnectorSuhaib Yahya Kasim Al-Darzi, Ai Rong Chen, Yu Qing LiuSimulating the push-out test and conducting parametric study using finite element model are conducted using perfobond connectors. The finite element model was verified through comparing with push-out test results. The verified finite element model was then used to conduct parametric study aiming to investigate the effect of several parameters, such as height and thickness of connector, cross sectional area and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImprovement of the Vertical Dispersion of Pollutants Resulting From Chimneys by Thermosiphon EffectA. O.M. Mahmoud, J. Zinoubi, R. B. Maad, A. BelghithThe dispersion of pollutants, resulting from industrial chimneys, in the surrounding atmosphere made the interest in realizing emitting conditions appears. It also encourages the vertical dispersion of these pollutants. At a given wind velocity, the height of this dispersion is essentially a function of the thermal power and the flow rate at the chimney exit. To improve these qualities, we … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,411 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Characterization of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Composite Material: Polymerization of m-Aminobenzoic Acid-Intercalated Into Zn/Al-Layered Double HydroxidesRasheed M.A.Q. JamhourLayered double hydroxides of aluminum and zinc (Zn/Al-LDH’s) were synthesized directly by hydrolysis at room temperature as reported elsewhere. After characterization, the material was reacted with m-aminobenzoat anion (m-NH2C6H4COO-) which undergoes polymerization in the interlayer space; resulting in the formation of a matrix with polymeric organic macromolecule. The resulting material along with the host LDH’s compound of Zn/Al-Cl was characterized … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,588 accessesView PDFCite

Zohadie et al.This study describes a simulation model for studying the basic design parameters of a special rubber track vehicle with rigid link tracks system on Sepang peat terrain in Malaysia. The prototype parameters for a track system, including proper track width, ground contact length, pitch and grouser height, idler diameter and location, sprocket diameter and location, road-wheel diameter and geometrical arrangement, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReplacement Heifer Selection in A Beef Cattle HerdAkin Pala, Roger McCrawThe relationship between a heifer's weaning weight and her fertility and weaning weight of her calves was studied. Also investigated was the effect of dam amount of fat (DAF=dam weaning weight/weaning height) on heifers' ability to breed and rebreed. This is similar to Body Mass Index (BMI) calculated for humans. The relationship of dam's average daily gain from birth to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadial Basis Function Neural Networks Towards Electronic Trust QuantificationSmitha Zacaria, Tiny du ToitTrust is a broad term applicable in various contexts. Trust between electronic entities is complex to quantify, particularly in intricate networks. Traditional trust algorithms rely on historical trust values, requiring storage and access to past transaction details. Contextual variations further complicate trust calculation. Challenges in calculating trust include heightened computational complexities, managing information storage, and securing access to extensive datasets … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 11 · 26 Sep 2024 · 4,801 accessesView PDFCite
