Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Standard Statistical Distributions for Modeling Glass FractureDavid Kinsella, Johan Lindström, Kent PerssonExperimental data on the strength of new annealed float glass tested in an ambient environment was collected. A comparison was made between four standard distributions, the normal, lognormal, Gumbel and Weibull, with respect to the performance in modelling the strength. The Weibull distribution outperformed the normal and lognormal distributions when the data contained edge only failure origins. When the data … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 24 Aug 2018 · 7,127 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudies on Environmental Impact Assessment of Reinforced Concrete in Different Life Cycle PhasesJair Frederico Santoro, Moacir KripkaConcrete is one of most used materials in construction and also one of the main responsible for the emission of carbon dioxide, or CO2, in the atmosphere. Thus, in order to study ways to reduce this impact, it is important to evaluate the influence of each raw material of the reinforced concrete, as well as the phases of the life … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 2 Jan 2018 · 8,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the use of Polyurethane Residue Aggregated to the Plaster of Civil ConstructionGuilherme Moraes de Oliveira, Vittória Caroline Souza dos Santos, José de Souza, Tatiana Louise Ávila C. RochaThe study deals with the reuse of Polyurethane (PU) obtained from a kitchen sponge added to plaster for use in civil engineering. The kitchen sponge is an item widely used by the population in their daily lives, generating a significant accumulation of waste. Thus, from the analysis of the properties of the kitchen sponge, it was seeking possible reuse of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2019 · 7,147 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Protein Feed Additives on Skin and Fur Quality of American MinkPavel Nikolayevich Abramov, Olga Fedorovna Chernova, Nikolai Aleksandrovich Balakirev et al.The purpose of the research is to study the effect of hydrolysates on the skin and fur quality. To assess morphological parameters of skin, as well as the commercial characteristics of the raw materials obtained, we formed three groups (one control and two experimental) of 3-month-old males (25 animals in each group) and females (50 animals in each group). Control … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2022 · 6,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign, Fabrication and Operational Evaluation of a Co-Pyrolysis System for Waste-Plastics Derived Fuels: A Study of Edo NorthKevin Otoikhian, Ubani Oluwaseun Amune, Kennedy Edogamhe et al.This research work designed, developed and assessed the performance of a co-pyrolysis system generating waste-plastic extract fuels from mixed Municipal Waste Plastics (MWP) while evaluating High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Polypropylene (PP) and Polystyrene (PS) as the main municipal waste plastic sources. The materials selected for the reactor were carefully studied to meet the pyrolysis system's strength, operability and safety requirements. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2022 · 7,526 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Properties of Waste Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene Metallized Films (BOPP), LLDPE: LDPE Films with Sisal FibresKiran Rohit, Savita DixitThe current work describe the enhancement and improvisation of polymer composite repose of sisal fiber reinforcement, Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) and thermoplastic LLDPE: LDPE particulate fillers. The composite were prepared with fiber content 5, 10, 15 and 20% (by weight). The composite are characterized with respect to their mechanical properties (Tensile, flexural and impact strength) were studied. Tensile strength showed … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2016 · 8,379 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIODEGRADABILITY AND MECHANICAL BEHAVIOUR OF SUGAR PALM STARCH BASED BIOPOLYMERJ. Sahari, S. M. Sapuan, E. S. Zainudin, M. A. MalequeA new Sugar Palm Starch (SPS) based biopolymer was successfully developed using glycerol as plasticizer. The effect of glycerol concentration (viz., 15, 20, 30 and 40 by weight percent) to the mechanical properties of plasticized SPS biopolymer was investigated. From this investigation, it was found that the 30% glycerol concentrated biopolymer showed the highest flexural strength and impact with the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 10 Nov 2014 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
