EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINFLUENCE OF REACTION TEMPERATURE AND REACTION TIME ON PRODUCT FROM HYDROTHERMAL TREATMENT OF BIOMASS RESIDUEJakaphong Kongpanya, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat TeekasapThailand is facing with problems associated with biomass residue such as palm oil residues (oil palm trunks, oil palm fronds, empty fruit bunches, shells and fibers). Biomass is promising source for the production of an array of energy-related produts including, liquid, solid and gaseous fuels, heat, chemicals electricity and other materials. Therefore, the use of biomass for energy is not … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 2 Jun 2014 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE HEAT ENHANCEMENT AND THE BIO-HEAT TRANSFER USING GOLD MACRO ROD AND ULTRASOUND: A POTENTIAL ALTERNATIVE TO KILL CANCER CELLSC. Austerlitz, I. Gkigkitzis, D. Campos, I. HaranasWe have previously proposed a method of treating solid tumors with a combination of gold macro-rods irradiated with ultrasound. Macro particle sized rods offer a greater circumferential treatment area over nanoparticle options. Experimental studies were conducted to investigate the heat enhancement and the bio-heat transfer to breast chicken using gold macro rod and ultrasound. An ultrasound, other than a focused … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 26 May 2014 · 7,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModification of Carbon Steel by Laser Surface Melting: Part I: Effect of Laser Beam Travelling Speed on Microstructural Features and Surface HardnessHashem F. El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe present study aims to improve the surface hardness of carbon steel by application of laser surface melting of effective conditions. The travelling speed of laser beam during this treatment is one of the important treatment conditions. This study aims to investigate the effect of laser surface melting with different beam speeds on macro and microstructure as well as the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2014 · 7,400 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning and Manufacturing of a Non Thermal Milk Pasteurizer Using Electrical FieldAsaad Rehman Saeed Al-HilphyUsing of traditional milk pasteurization methods caused fouling by heat, particularly rapid pasteurization by ohmic heating at 220 volts resulted protein denaturation, when milk holding of 15 sec under ohmic heating at 72°C. So to control these properties a Non-thermal treatment by different electrical fields at 20, 27.5, 55 V/cm (80, 110, 220V, AC) and quickly milk pass between poles … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Design of a Photovoltaic Water Pumping and Treatment SystemAbderrahmen Ben Chaabene, Med Faouzi Elkaroui, Anis SellamiThrough the world, the exploitation of solar energies knew a strong growth these last years. It is interesting to exploit them on the place of consumption, by directly transforming into heat, or in electricity according to needs and especially in remote areas where power from utility is not available or is too costly to install. The use of photovoltaic sources … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2013 · 7,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarly Age Thermal Conditioning Improves Broiler Chick's Response to Acute Heat Stress at Marketing AgeAhmed M. Hassan, P. Gopal ReddyProblem statement: Acute heat stress at marketing age especially in broiler chickens raised in open houses with reduced means of heat exchange leads to economic losses. The objective of this study was to determine beneficial effects of early age thermal conditioning in reducing adverse effects of acute heat stress and decrease losses. Approach: Ninety one day-old broiler chicks were randomly … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 17 Feb 2012 · 8,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Rapid Thermal Annealing Towards the Performance of Screen-Printed Si Solar CellShahrul Anizan, Cheow Siu Leong, Khairymaza Lee Yusri et al.Problem statement: Solar cells are used to capture the photons which generate the energy. However the efficiency of the cells to turn the amount of photon to electricity needs to be high and so the cells enhancement is needed. This involved the whole process of the developing of the cells, thus annealing process is one of the important steps that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGermination Ecology of Rhanterium epapposum Oliv.Sameeha Zaman, Shyamala Padmesh, Harby TawfiqProblem statement: Rhanterium epapposum, locally called Arfaj is the national flower of Kuwait. The current situation of Rhanterium epapposum is quite critical in most areas of Kuwait. In fact it has completely disappeared from most parts of the country due to a combination of overgrazing, collecting for firewood and off road driving. Approach: Rhanterium epapposum is an excellent species for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis: A Case ReportMojtaba Varshochi, Mehdi Haghdoost, Omid MashrabiProblem statement: Granulomatous Lobular Mastitis (GLM) or autoimmune mastitis is a rare and benign disease which, except one case reported in an old man, is usually seen during pregnancy or lactation period.
