Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractSoya Beans Production in Zambia: Opportunities and ChallengesBrivery SiamabeleThe soya bean production opens doors of opportunities for Zambian farmers. Notably, the climate in Zambia is largely favourable for soya production and the arable land is vast enough to accommodate future expansion. Most importantly, soya is a very profitable crop. On the other hand, there are some challenges which affect soya production such as poor soils aggravated by low … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 May 2019 · 13,452 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrologic Modeling to Evaluate the Impact of Hydraulic Fracturing on Stream Low Flows: Challenges and Opportunities for a Simulation StudySuresh Sharma, Aashish Shrestha, Colleen E. McLean, Scott C. MartinHydraulic fracturing (fracking) has been increasing in the eastern part of Ohio for the last few years leading to the increased stress on water resources, particularly on the hydrological low flows. Yet, evaluation of the various impacts of fracking on stream low flows using appropriate tools is still a challenging issue, even though significant progress has been achieved in recent … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 7 Aug 2015 · 10,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMULTI SCALE TIME SERIES PREDICTION FOR INTRUSION DETECTIONG. Palanivel, K. DuraiswamyWe propose an anomaly-based network intrusion detection system, which analyzes traffic features to detect anomalies. The proposed system can be used both in online as well as off-line mode for detecting deviations from the expected behavior. Although our approach uses network packet or flow data, it is general enough to be adaptable for use with any other network variable, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 27 Jun 2014 · 6,776 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE NUMERICAL VALUES OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PARAMETERS OF THE MODEL OF SELFVARIATIONS AND THE AGE OF THE UNIVERSEEmmanuil ManousosThe law of selfvariations determines quantitatively a slight increase of the rest masses and the electric charges of material particles as a common cause of quantum and cosmological phenomena. At cosmological scales the law of selfvariations can be expressed by two similar differential equations for the rest mass and the electric charge respectively. These equations contain information and justify the … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2014 · 8,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttitudes Towards Linkage Mechanism Researh of Agricultural Research and ExtensionAhmad Al-Rimawi, Mohammad Tabieh, Hussein Al-QudahThe aim of this study is to examine how linkages between the actors in the research and extension system in Jordan can be improved to enhance their effectiveness. Likert scales were used as tools for data collection to measure attitudes towards management, organizational and universities linkages using a convenient sample of 121 extension agents and researchers. Cronbach’s alpha coefficients were … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 18 Apr 2013 · 7,778 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRural Students’ Skills and Attitudes Towards Information and Communication TechnologyHairulliza M. Judi, Hazilah M. Amin, Nor A.M. Zin, Rodziah LatihProblem statement: Despite various initiatives and programmes by the government to incorporate ICT in education, not much research has been done to evaluate the achievement of these initiatives and programmes, including ICT proficiency among students. This study fills in the gap of lack of current information pertaining to the Malaysian secondary school students’ ICT competencies, knowledge on internet and attitudes … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 21 Oct 2011 · 7,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinematics Model of Snake Robot Considering Snake ScaleRaisuddin Khan, M. Watanabe, A. A. ShafieProblem statement: In snake robot research, one of the most efficient forms of locomotion is the lateral undulation. However, lateral undulation, also known as serpentine locomotion, is ill-suited for narrow spaces, as the body of the snake must assume a certain amount of curvature to propel forward. Approach: To overcome the inability to adapt to narrow spaces, a novel type … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProsody Modification of Standard Arabic Speech Using Combining Synchronous Overlap and Add With Fixed-Synthesis Algorithm and Multi Level Discrete Wavelet TransformYkhlef Faycal, Bensebti Mesaoud, Bendaouia LotfiProblem statement: The objective of prosody modification is to change the amplitude, duration and pitch (F0) of speech segments without altering their spectral envelop. Applications are numerous, including, Text-To-Speech synthesis, transformation of voice characteristics and foreign language learning. Several approaches have been developed in the literature to achieve this goal. The main restrictions of these latter are in the modification … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 6,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactor Analysis, Target Factor Testing and Model Designing of Aromatic Solvent Effect of the Formyl Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Chemical Shift in Para substituted BenzaldehydesGhazwan F. FadhilProblem statement: The variations of formyl proton Chemical Shifts (CS) of p-substituted benzaldehydes in aromatic solvents were investigated. The validity of several physical solvent and empirical solvent scales was examined. Also, to predict dipolarity-polarizability (π*) solvent scale for some aromatic solvents. Model designing was also achieved to rationalize the aromatic solvent effect on the formyl proton CS. Approach: The previously … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCreating and Developing a Service Network of Stage Costume Business in Isan CommunityOurarom Chantamala, Suphanni Luaboonchu, Terdchai PantachiProblem statement: A lot of stage costume businesses in Isan community (northeast community of Thailand) cannot expand their business into larger scales because the owners mange everything by themselves so it cause a lot of difficulties such as a lack of low cost stage costume sources. Approach: This research aimed to examine 3 points. First, to examine the background of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
