Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBasis of Guidelines for Structural Design and Thermal Assessment of Buildings with Hybrid CLT-Glass ElementsNikola Perković, Vlatka Rajčić, Chiara Bedon et al.Facade elements are known to represent a building component with multiple performance parameters to satisfy. Among others, “advanced facades” take advantage from hybrid solutions, like the assemblage of laminated materials. In addition to enhanced mechanical properties that are typical of optimally composed hybrid structural components, these systems are energy efficient, durable and offer lightening comfort and optimal thermal performance. This … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 9 Apr 2020 · 6,969 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractYield and Nutritional Value of Oats Associated With Vicia in High Andean Conditions of Puno, PeruMarcial Enciso Altamirano, Jimny Nuñez Delgado, Alexandrina Sotelo Méndez et al.The objective of the study was to determine the yield (Kg/ha) and nutritional value of the associated cultivation of oats (Avena sativa) and vicia (Vicia sativa) using different varieties and sowing proportions in high Andean conditions in the Puno region. Three oat varieties were selected: Tayko, Africana and Vilcanota I, and were sown in association with vicia in two proportions: … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 1 Sep 2025 · 5,471 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Multiple Tuned Mass Damper for Passive Control of Structures by Cuckoo AlgorithmHamid Jafari Nia, Amir Hossein Heidari, Hamid Reza Babaali, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariAdjustable mass dampers are recently used to reduce seismic vibrations of engineering structures. Function of these types of systems requires a suitable setting of their parameters. In this study, a practical method to design Multiple Tuned Mass Dampers (MTMD) has been proposed to minimize the maximum displacement of roof, acceleration of roof and TMDs displacement to reduce the seismic response … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2020 · 7,392 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecovery of Manganese from Zinc Smelter SlagRasoul Khosravi, Rasoul Fatahi, Hossein Siavoshi, Fatemeh MolaeiUsing a software-based experiment design, the application of the leaching process for the extraction of manganese from Zinc Plant Slag (ZPS) was investigated. In this study, the effect of different parameters, i.e., H2SO4 concentration, pulp density, agitation rate, temperature and reaction time, was investigated. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) based on the Central Composite Design (CCD) has been implemented to consider … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 1 Dec 2020 · 7,273 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing of Copper (II) Adsorption Efficiency by Mixing Plantain and Orange Peelings as Bio-Sorbent SupportSamomssa Inna, Ebelle Epoi Charlotte Alvine, Adjia Zangue Henriette, Sieliechi JosephThe present study focuses on the valorization of plantain and orange peels in the field of water treatment contaminated by heavy metals, especially copper (II). To carry out this study, simplex centroid mixture design was used to determine best mixture from plantain and orange peelings through iodine number, specific surface area and point of zero charge.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Telemedicine Robot using Behavior-based Control Architecture with Two-Step Fuzzy Logic OptimizationAndi Adriansyah, Nanda Ferdana, Setiyo Budiyanto, Julpri AndikaDesigning a telemedicine robot is a challenging task. Complexity, incomplete prior knowledge of the environment and unexpected situations set strict requirements for both the hardware and software components of the robot. Several robotics architectures have been proposed that try to cope with the above problems. The behavior-based approach has been established as the main alternative to new robot control. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 11 · 13 Nov 2019 · 7,579 accessesView PDF Cite
