Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNew Golden Red Sodium Calcium Silicate GlassesWang Cheng-Yu, Wun Nuan-Xin, Ge Yi et al.Traditional golden red glasses were based on K2O-PbO-SiO2 composition system. In this paper, we reported new golden red glasses based on Na2O-CaO-SiO2 system without SnO2 and PbO in them. By using a spectrophotometer and chromamter color difference meter, it was found that the new glasses had similar optical properties to the traditional ones. The diameter of the gold particles in … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 13 Feb 2019 · 7,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEr3+-Doped Soda-Lime Silicate Glass: Artificial Pink GemstonePichet Limsuwan, Kheamrutai Thamaphat, Jakrapong Kaewkhao, Weeranut KaewwisetEr3+-doped soda-lime silicate glasses of the composition (in mol%) (65-x)SiO2:25Na2O:10CaO:xEr2O3 (where x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) were fabricated by conventional melt quenching technique. The physical and optical properties were measured and investigated. The erbium oxide enters the glass network as a modifier by occupying the interstitial space in the network and generating the NBOs to the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 29 Aug 2012 · 7,397 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptical Investigation and Electronic Polarizability of Nd3+ Doped Soda-Lime-Silicate GlassesP. Chimalawong, J. Kaewkhao, P. LimsuwanProblem statement: This study researched on different physical and optical properties of Nd3+ doped soda-lime-silicate glass. The glasses containing Nd3+ in (65-x)SiO2: 25Na2O: 10CaO: xNd2O3 (where x = 0.0-5.0 mol%) had been prepared by melt-quenching method. The density and molar volume increase with increasing of Nd2O3 concentration due to increasing of Non Bridging Oxygen (NBOs) in glass matrix. The optical … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessing and Improving the Performance of Grouted MacadamMomtaz M. Othman, Ahmed Ebrahim Abu El-Maaty, Zeinab S. HusseinThere are many road defects appear in flexible pavement layers. Rutting, raveling and cracks are considered the main problems in Egypt. Using grouted macadam system as a surface asphaltic layer (or called Semi-Flexible Pavement (SFP)) has many advantages such as saving the natural asphalt and enhancing the performance against deteriorations. The main scope of this research is to evaluate and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2020 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluences of Short Discrete Fibers in High Strength Concrete with Very Coarse SandMahyuddin Ramli, Kwan Wai HoeProblem statement: High Strength Concrete (HSC) normally content high cementitous amount and low water binder ratio. However, these would cause substantial volume changes to the concrete and therefore affected the strength development. In addition, the brittleness of HSC was increased when silica fume used as partial cement replacement to achieve high strength. Approach: This study discussed the effects of incorporated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRational Mix Design Approach for High Strength Concrete Using Sand with very High Fineness ModulusKwan Wai Hoe, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Production of concrete is always deal with inconsistency. Sources of variation like materials from different geographical basis, mix design method, fineness of aggregates and so on will attribute to different level of achievement of the concrete. Even though researcher had verified that higher fineness modulus of sand would yield better performance for the concrete, but so far there … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,217 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of Changes in Forage Vegetation for Saiga (Saiga Tatarica) On Natural Pastures in The Steppe Zone of the West Kazakhstan RegionAmanay Myrzabayev, Zhanbolat Ibraibekov, Zhangeldi Ussenov et al.This study investigates the impact of recent climate changes and reduced anthropogenic pressure on the vegetation cover in the steppe regions of Russia and Kazakhstan, particularly focusing on the effects on saiga (Saiga tatarica) populations. By the late 1990s, a significant shift towards the dominance of grasses and the reduction of herbaceous plants in semi-arid and arid regions was observed, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 7 Feb 2026 · 1,765 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessIn the abstractCritical Evaluation of Thermal Efficiency in Aerogel Glazing Systems for Energy-Saving ApplicationsErdem CuceAerogels as a thermal superinsulation material possess a unique combination of properties, most notably low densities, and exceptionally low thermal conductivities, stemming from the high-volume fraction of air incorporated within their structure. Aerogel glazing systems have emerged as a promising solution to enhance the thermal performance of building envelopes while maintaining daylighting. With the notable reductions in production cost in … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2026 · 2,932 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Impact of Incorporating Fine-Grained Materials on the Resistance Characteristics of Cement-Reinforced ClaySayed Amirhossein Hosseini Chaleshtori, Mohammad Alibabaei ShahrakiThis study, conducted with meticulous attention to detail, examined the influence of fine-grained materials on the resistance components of clay, with and without cement reinforcement. Micro-silica, perlite, crystal barite, gypsum, silica and talc were added to investigate this matter and samples were created and modeled under standard laboratory conditions. The current study aimed to examine the effectiveness of organic granules … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 13 Aug 2024 · 5,579 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractVolume 3: SGAMR is Always on Track!Chiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Flavio StochinoThe year 2019 represents a new growing step for SGAMR, that starts to publish “continuously” all the accepted papers, once they are subjected to positive, blinded peer-review process.
