Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Prediction Model for Temperature Distributions in Concrete at Early AgesWondwosen Ali, Girum UrgessaA finite element-finite difference numerical model is developed for predicting non-uniform temperature development in hydrating concrete with respect to time and space. The results obtained from this model can be used by structural and construction engineers to predict critical thermal stresses induced due to differential temperatures between the core and the surface of the concrete at early ages and between … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2013 · 7,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Chitinolytic Bacteria in Alginate-Chitosan Encapsulation on Chili Seed Against Damping off Caused by Fusarium oxysporumDwi Suryanto, Affan Indarwan, Erman MunirOne alternative in biological control of plant pathogenic fungi is to provide biological agent inoculant in coated seed. This study was to evaluate potential control and viability of two chitinolytic bacteria, Enterobacter sp. BK15 and Bacillus sp. BK17 of alginate-chitosan encapsulation coated on chili seed against damping off caused by Fusarium oxysporum. Chili seed beads were stored at refrigerator and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2012 · 7,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAerosol Filtration Using Quartz Sand FilterAbbas H. Sulaymon, Yasmen A. MustafaThe cement industry is the major source of cement dust which contains heavy metals like nickel, cobalt, lead, chromium, arsenic and hazardous substances like dioxins and furans. Exposure to these substances can cause health problems to human, animals and vegetation. A continuous pilot scale quartz sand filter was constructed and uses to study the effect of important design parameters (temperature, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 20 Jun 2012 · 7,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Comfort Assessment-A Study Toward Workers’ Satisfaction in a Low Energy Office BuildingMohd Nafiz Shaharon, Juliana JalaludinProblem statement: The government of Malaysia has raised their concerns towards the issue of workers comfort and workspace quality in a Low Energy Office (LEO) building. New energy efficient building concepts and technologies require a revision of comfort standards, to create a suitable thermal condition in avoiding occupant dissatisfaction, adverse effect on their productivity and overall building performance. Approach: Assessment … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 16 May 2012 · 8,797 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Diurnally Cyclic Temperature on the Performance of a Continuous Mix Anaerobic DigesterAbdel E. Ghaly, Mariam T. Al HattabProblem statement: Concentrated livestock production is a major contributor to environmental problems through the production of large quantity of husks on relatively small land area. Anaerobic digestion represents a valuable means of cover by these husks into methane while reducing manure pollution problems. Methodology: An experimental apparatus, including data acquisition and control system, was developed and used to investigate the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 19 Jan 2012 · 9,226 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Bone Adhesive to Produce Particleboards from Stems of Cotton Plant at the Pressing Temperature of 140°CKomi Kadja, Magolmeena Banna, Kokou Esso Atcholi, Komla SandaProblem statement: To value agricultural residues, a study was carried out to investigate mechanical and physical properties of particleboards produced from stems of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) by using bone adhesive. Approach: In order to obtain particleboards with minimum physical and mechanical properties as required in the conventional standards for general purpose particleboards, the optimum pressure temperature and the optimum … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,270 accessesView PDFCite
