Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultiaxial Fatigue Strength to Notched specimens made of 40CrMoV13.9Abedin Gagani, Raffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu et al.Fatigue is a process (succession of mechanisms) which under the action of time-varying strains or deformations modifies the local properties of a material. These can lead to the formation of cracks and eventual rupture of the structure. Fatigue is in particular characterized by an extent of variation in stress which may be well below the yield strength of the material. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2016 · 8,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPriorities of Value Policy in Race and Ethnic Relations in the USAYury Grigoryevich Volkov, Alexander Konstantinovich Degtyarev, Galina Sergeevna Denisova et al.Conceptual interpretation of research practices undertaken in this study enabled the authors to identify the specific role of value policy as an efficiency factor of state management in improving race and ethnic relations in the United States. In this regard, the article aims to determine the priorities of value policy, considering the major trends of race relations development in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 12 · 22 Dec 2016 · 7,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermodynamic Model of Calcium Carbonate System of Soil SolutionAbdulmalik A. Batukaev, Anatoliy P. Endovitsky, Andrey G. Andreev et al.Carbonate system determines the basic processes of soil formation and evolution. The aim of research was to show the importance of chemical Carbonate Calcium Equilibrium (CCE) in soil solutions. CCE causes a degree of soil solution’s saturation with CaCO3 as a factor of carbonate geochemical cycle. CCE depends on chemical composition, pH, Eh, buffering properties of liquid phase, dissolution, migration, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 18 May 2016 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractGLUTATHIONE: A POSSIBLE LINK TO AUTOPHAGY IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUSDilip Shah, Swapan K. NathIncreased free radical formation and altered redox state are of fundamental importance in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases including Systemic Lupus Erythematos (SLE). Free radicals are mainly derived from oxygen (Reactive Oxygen Species/ROS) and nitrogen (Reactive Nitrogen Species/RNS) at mitochondria, cellular membranes and the endoplasmic reticulum membrane as physiological responses to a variety of internal and external stress (Shah et … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2014 · 12,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSOCIO-PSYCOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO ARE PRONE TO ADDICTIONSElena Aleksandrovna Cheverikina, Rezeda Munavirovna Rakhimgarayeva, Victoriya Vladimirovna Sadovaya et al.Addictive behavior in the modern world is a disincentive factor for personal-professional development of students. The purpose of this article is to identify the socio-psychological characteristics of college students who are prone to substance abuse. The problem suggested by the authors, is studied on the basis of an integrated approach which is based on an understanding of socialization as a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 28 Jun 2014 · 7,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHORIA EHANCEMENT OF NUCLEAR REACTOR SAFETYBarbara Szpunar, Jerzy SzpunarThe recent nuclear accident in Fukushima demonstrates that a nuclear mishap should be viewed using interdisciplinary tools. For example, the urania fuel melts not only because of enhanced neutron flux but also because its thermal conductivity degrades when it oxidizes. Here we present the application of first principles calculations to evaluate the structural, mechanical and thermal properties of traditional urania … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 20 Dec 2013 · 7,632 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEndothelial Dysfunction Induced by Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Fibrinolytic ActivityHussein F. SakrProblem statement: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the world's largest systemic and metabolic disease. Endothelin (ET) was first described as a peptidergic endothelium-derived constricting factor. Endothelin-1 is one of the endothelial factors that is overexpressed in cases of endothelial dysfunction. The fibrinolytic system is present in plasma with the degradation of fibrin polymers in blood clots. It is a proteolytic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDose Response and Optical Properties of Dyed Poly Vinyl Alcohol-Trichloroacetic Acid Polymeric Blends Irradiated with Gamma-RaysSusilawati, Aris DoyanProblem statement: The effects of gamma irradiation on optical properties of cresol-red dyed Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA) blended with Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) for possible use in dosimetry and measurement of radiation dose in gamma rays have been studied using both Raman spectroscopy and UV-Visible spectrophotometer method. Approach: The dosimeters are composed of Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA), Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,088 accessesView PDFCite

Ng, S. A. Halim et al.Problem statement: Microstructure of the grain will influence the properties of a polycrystalline manganites when different dopant is introduced. In this work, an effort had been made to investigate the influence of Ca, Ba and Sr substitution in La site. Approach: Polycrystalline manganites compound of La0.67A0.33MnO3 where A = Ba, Sr and Ca had been prepared via conventional solid-state reaction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Boron Carbonitride (BCN) Thin Films Deposited by Radiofrequency and Microwave Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor DepositionM.A. Mannan, M. Nagano, K. Shigezumi et al.Boron carbonitride (BCN) thin films with a thickness of ~4 µm were synthesized on Si (100) substrate by radiofrequency and microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition using trimethylamine borane [(CH3)3N.BH3)] as a molecular precursor. The microstructures of the films were evaluated using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,371 accessesView PDFCite
