Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePore Water Pressure Contribution to Debris Flow MobilityChiara DeangeliProblem statement: Debris flows are very to extremely rapid flows of saturated granular soils. Two main types of debris flow are generally recognized: Open slope debris flows and channelized debris flows. The former is the results of some form of slope failures, the latter can develop along preexisting stream courses by the mobilization of previously deposited debris blanket. The problem … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Acute Administration of Artemisia Persia Extracts on Arterial Blood Pressure and Heart Rate in RatsFarzaneh Esmaeili, Gholamreza Sepehri, Ghollam-Reza Moshtaghi-Kashanian et al.Problem statement: Artemisia Persia (AP) used for its therapeutic effects in folk medicine whiles some species of Artemisia shown a hypotensive effect. To determine the cardiovascular effect of AP, we tested the pharmacological responses of aqueous and methanolic extracts of AP on blood pressure (BP) and Heart Rate (HR) of normotensive and ephedrine induced hypertensive rats using a tail-cuff computerized … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Diesel Engine Converted to Sequential Port Injection Compressed Natural Gas Engine on the Cylinder Pressure vs Crank Angle in Variation Engine SpeedsSemin, Abdul Rahim Ismail, Rosli Abu BakarThe diesel engine converted to compressed natural gas (CNG) engine effect is lower in performance. Problem statement: The hypothesis is that the lower performance of CNG engine is caused by the effect of lower in engine cylinder pressure. Are the CNG engine is lower cylinder pressure than diesel engine? This research is conducted to investigate the cylinder pressure of CNG … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,243 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Method for Constructing the Coefficients of Pressure Correction Equation for Colocated Unstructured GridsR. Rafee, H. RahimzadehOne of the important equations in numerical solution of Navier Stokes equations is the pressure correction equation. In this article, a new method for constructing the coefficients of this equation for colocated unstructured meshes is proposed. This method is based on momentum interpolation. The method is compared with the approach adopted in literature. The complete discretization of the Navier Stokes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,137 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDynamic Stress Analysis of the Arterial Wall Utilizing Physiological Pressure WaveformsM.M. Khani, M. Tafazzoli-Shadpour, S. Delavarpour et al.Arterial diseases, promoted by alterations in arterial wall properties, are among the main causes of mortality. Mechanical stresses of the arterial wall caused by pulsatile luminal pressure define arterial function in normal and pathological conditions. This study aims to determine dynamic stress distribution in the arterial wall subjected to physiological pressure waveforms. Finite element models of a typical artery are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePressure-sensitivity Effects on Toughness Measurements of Compact Tension Specimens for Strain-hardening SolidsAbdulhamid A. Al-AbduljabbarThe path-independent J-integral is used as a fracture prediction criterion for loading beyond the elastic limit as Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) cannot be applied. While J was originally defined from an energy perspective, it was demonstrated that it could be inferred from load-displacement diagrams. Therefore, the Compact Tension (CT) specimen testing is used to compute J for materials. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
