Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Geo-Information Technology in the Study of Soil and Nutrients Loss by Water Erosion for three Different Land CoverMushtak T. Jabbar, C. A.I. Chong-Fa, Wang Tian-Wei, Shi Zhi-HuaThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the soil statistical analysis with RS and GIS techniques to quantify soil and nutrient loss risk. The Letianxi watershed, located in the southwest part of Hubei Province of China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Degradation Risk Prediction Integrating RUSLE with Geo-information Techniques, the Case of Northern Shaanxi Province in ChinaMushtak T. Jabbar, Xiaoling ChenThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with RS, GIS and GPS techniques to quantify soil erosion risk and the northern part of Shaanxi province in China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. The rating values served as inputs into a modified Revised … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing the Cuckoo Search for Generating New Particles in Particle Swarm Optimization AlgorithmFariaa Abdalmajeed Hameed, Harith Raad Hasan, Ahmed Abdullah Ahmed, Gulala Ali Hama AminThis study is focused on as Cuckoo Search (CS), one of the current meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. The CS algorithm is useful in generating and searching for the most optimum particles of important meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, known as the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to enhance its performance. This optimization is confirmed through a benchmark online optimization and actual problems. The PSO … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2020 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Sero-Prevalence of Small Ruminant and Human Brucellosis in Yabello and Dire Districts of Borena Zone Oromia Regional State, EthiopiaWubishet ZewdieCross-sectional study was conducted in Yabello and Dire districts of Borena zone Oromia regional state, Ethiopia to estimate sero-prevalence of small ruminant and human Brucellosis. Sero-survey was applied to the target population of 228 small ruminants and 86 humans. The sera samples were collected from small ruminants (sheep and goats) and humans for serological analysis of brucellosis. Samples were serially … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 21 Jan 2020 · 7,987 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMedical Service of RobotsRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuToday, robots have not only penetrated to create microchips in electronics but also in medicine, where it helps to perform difficult operations, especially where precision is needed and the size is small and any human error could be fatal to the patient. Robots assist the doctor in heart, brain, kidney operations, not to mention bone implants and repair of damaged … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2019 · 7,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContributions to the Stirling Engine StudyFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuIn the process of transforming thermal energy into mechanical work, among the known thermal machines, the Stirling engine is the one that can achieve the highest yield (theoretically up to the maximum yield of the Carnot cycle), although in practice it is reduced by the properties of gas and materials used such as friction coefficient, thermal conductivity, melting point, breaking … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2018 · 10,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWomen’s Participation in Agricultural Activities at Forest Land Areas of BangladeshRajwana Munmun, Md. Asaduzzaman Sarker, Mohammad Jiaul Hoque, Khondokar Humayun KabirWomen first initiated agricultural practices and demonstrated the art of science of farming. Women played a key role in the conservation of basic support system. The main objective of this research was to determine the extent of participation in agricultural activities by the rural women in Madhupur forest areas. An attempt was made to explore the potentials factors that influence … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 9 May 2015 · 7,338 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
