Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInclusion Identification by Inverse Application of Boundary Element Method, Genetic Algorithm and Conjugate Gradient MethodMahmud Khodadad, Mohsen Dashti ArdakaniCharacterization of the interior of an inhomogeneous body using displacement measurements obtained by conducting a simple tension test was investigated. A homogeneous elastic solid body is assumed to have another solid body with arbitrary shape hidden inside it. The shape and physical properties of this inclusion were unknown. The Boundary Element Method (BEM) coupled with a mete heuristic Genetic Algorithm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,758 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDepth Estimation of 2-D Magnetic Anomalous Sources by Using Euler Deconvolution MethodM. G.E. Dawi, Liu Tianyou, Shi Hui, Luo DapengEuler deconvolution method is the method of depth estimation which is best suited for anomalies caused by isolating and multiple anomalous sources. In the present study, algorithmic programs based on generalizing linear inverse theory, uses a least square sense to solve for Euler’s equation is being written. The Euler technique that can estimate the location of a simple body from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Stevia Consumption on Blood Pressure, Stress Hormone Levels and Anthropometrical Parameters in Healthy PersonsEmad A.S. Al-Dujaili, Husni Twaij, Yazan A. Bataineh et al.Stevia is a natural sweetener containing steviol glycosides known to be several times sweeter than sucrose. It is thought to have several beneficial properties though some evidence state it may have detrimental effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential beneficial or harmful effects of stevia consumption by exploring its effects on blood pressure, stress hormone levels … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 31 Aug 2017 · 25,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncrease in Crude Protein Content of Milk Replacers with Vegetable Protein: Effect on Health and Dairy Calves' PerformanceEvangelina Miqueo, Thais Manzoni Torrezan, Nathalia Britto Rocha et al.The use of milk replacer instead of whole milk may be an economical alternative to calf-rearing systems. However, together with the volume fed, its composition is critical for high performance, especially regarding the origin of the protein. Two milk replacers with different protein content were evaluated to see the effect on the performance of calves. Thirty-three Holstein calves were distributed … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2017 · 7,776 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractBig Data and Parkinson’s Disease - from Understanding of Disease to Personalised MedicineYen F. Tai, Nicola PaveseThe advancement of information technology in recent years has generated a huge amount of datasets in all areas of scientific research. This has led to new opportunities to harness the 'Big Data' to improve our understanding of diseases - from investigating disease mechanisms to monitoring treatment responses. The Big Data approach is a data-driven and often hypothesis-free, way of studying … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeurophysiological Mechanisms of Rapidity Quality Development in Female Students Going in for Basketball and Volleyball at Sports ClubsAngelina Shakhanova, Aida Cheuzheva, Ekaterina Kalnaya, Tatiana PetrovaUsing the “NS-Pshykho Test” certified software package (Ivanovo, Russia), we studied the measurements of Simple Hand-Eye Response time (SHER), tapping test frequency, time of Reaction To Moving Object (RMO), Critical Flicker Fusion Frequency (CFFF) in female students going and not going in for sports (volleyball, basketball) at sports clubs. The basis of neuromotor state is formed by variants of classical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 17 May 2016 · 7,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPathologies of Acute Interstitial Pneumonia in Feedlot CattleJose A. Valles, Michael D. Apley, Chris D. Reinhardt et al.Acute Interstitial Pneumonia (AIP) is a costly issue that affects feedlot cattle. Research has yet to elucidate the etiology of AIP; therefore a case-control study was conducted to evaluate possible management and physiological factors that contribute to AIP in feedlot cattle. The experiment was conducted during the summer of 2011 in a commercial feedyard in Kansas. Animals exhibiting clinical signs … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2016 · 7,896 accessesView PDFCite
