Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTunnel Static Behavior Assessed by a Probabilistic Approach to the Back-AnalysisClaudio Oggeri, Pierpaolo OresteProblem statement: The steps of the validation procedure of the project of a tunnel are briefly illustrated in this study, starting from the geological and structural surveys on the excavation walls and the measurement of the physical and mechanical parameters during the excavation works. Unfortunately, however, the knowledge of the rock mass, which is fundamental to the project, is usually … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 4 Jun 2012 · 7,034 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Symbolic Threshold: A Dynamic form of the Mind as an Expression of Radiant ThinkingFelice Corona, Francesco Perrotta, Emilia Tartaglia Polcini, Carla CozzarelliProblem statement: The definition of "symbolic species" used by Terrence W. Deacon means more complete the process of monitoring the encounter between semiotics and cognitive sciences neurosemiotics better defined. Approach: The mechanism of the symbolic threshold means that it is put in place an approach to reality no longer seen as a representative of simple association, but under a restructuring … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 16,063 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMedia Identity in Structure of Personality: Formation and TypologyIgor Nikolaevich Blokhin, Sergey Nikolaevich Ilchenko, Lyudmila Petrovna ShesterkinaThe study provides the analysis of different approaches to determining media identity. This phenomenon is substantiated in the context of media landscape as a complex of relationships and communicative actions of a personality within the media system. The role of social relations in the processes of building the structure of personality is considered together with anthropological, sociological and psychological peculiarities … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 27 May 2016 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPaving the Way for Warehouse Centralization in Healthcare: A Preliminary Assessment ApproachAnna Corinna Cagliano, Sabrina Grimaldi, Carlo RafeleCentralized logistics management is currently one interesting option for healthcare systems facing an increasing need to improve responsiveness and service quality while reducing costs. This work focuses on one aspect of centralized logistics, namely warehouse centralization and proposes a preliminary approach to assess material management in healthcare institutions as a first step towards decisions about the implementation of such a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 5 May 2016 · 7,919 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Design of Experiments and Manuscripts Rejection RateAydin Berenjian, Jason RyanTraditional one-variable-at-a-time method was and still is for some researchers, the general procedure to determine the optimal conditions for a chemical, biochemical or biological mechanism. According to this technique, a large number of experiments should be performed to obtain a high precision in effect assessment and also the interaction among the variables cannot be defined. To overcome the limitations of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDirect Shocks in Vibrationally Nonequilibrium Diatomic Gases at Various Distances from Critical Cross-Section of NozzleRydalevskaya Maria Alexandrovna, Voroshilova Yulia Nikolaevna, Uskov Vladimir NikolaevichThe high-temperature diatomic gas flows are considered in expanding nozzles under the conditions of a disturbance of the equilibrium distribution over vibrational levels of the molecules. The investigation of such flows is bound up with the problem of the inversion of the vibrational populations in the active mediums of molecular lasers. Under diverse values of the pressure overfall on coming … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,655 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIMMUNOLOGY IN BRAZIL: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUNG SCIENTISTSCarolina PanisThe Brazilian research community has recently emerged as a scientific power. Brazil’s intellectual production has significantly increased in recent years, mostly due to the growing number of young scientists in the country. Approximately 10,000 individuals are conferred the PhD degree in Brazil annually, with corresponding publications of a significant number of research papers. Brazil’s contribution to scientific publications constitutes approximately … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 26 Sep 2014 · 7,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractADAPTIVE RESOURCE CONTROL MECHANISM THROUGH REPUTATION-BASED SCHEDULING IN HETEROGENEOUS DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMSMasnida Hussin, Rohaya LatipThe service-oriented distributed systems such as Grids and Clouds are unified computing platform that connect and share heterogeneous resources including computation resource, storage resource, information resource and knowledge resource. While these systems provide a vast amount of computing power their reliability are often hard to be guaranteed. It is due to the increased complexity of processing (e.g., overhead, latency) that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 25 Nov 2013 · 7,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Transmitter for CDM Based 2×2 Multiple Input Multiple Output Channel Sounder for Multipath Delay MeasurementM. Habib Ullah, M. T. Islam, Mandeep Sing et al.Problem statement: Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless communication system is an innovative solution to improve the bandwidth efficiency by exploiting multipath-richness of the propagation environment. The degree of multipath-richness of the channel will determine the capacity gain attainable by MIMO deployment. Approach: Therefore, it is very important to have accurate knowledge of the propagation environment/radio channel before MIMO implement. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2011 · 7,903 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix Bone Fracture DetectionHum Yan Chai, Lai Khin Wee, Tan Tian Swee et al.Problem statement: Currently doctors in orthopedic wards inspect the bone x-ray images according to their experience and knowledge in bone fracture analysis. Manual examination of x-rays has multitude drawbacks. The process is time-consuming and subjective. Approach: Since detection of fractures is an important orthopedics and radiologic problem and therefore a Computer Aided Detection(CAD) system should be developed to improve the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,973 accessesView PDFCite
