Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite-Element Numerical Simulation of the Bending Performance of Post-Tensioned Structural Glass Beams with Adhesively Bonded CFRP TendonsChiara Bedon, Christian LouterIn this study, a Finite-Element (FE) numerical investigation is carried out on laminated glass beams with Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) adhesively bonded post-tensioning tendons. Taking advantage of past four-point bending experimental test results available in literature, a refined full 3D FE numerical model is calibrated and validated. A key role is given to a multitude of aspects, including the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,739 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
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Consequences of the Polymorphism Q223R in the Human Leptin Receptor: A Molecular Dynamics StudyJonathan P. Carrillo-Vázquez, Brenda Chimal-Vega, Beatriz Zamora-López et al.Leptin Receptor (LEPR) is a component of a signaling pathway related to appetite and energy expenditure. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) of Leptin receptor gene (lepr) have been proposed as possible modulator of adipose tissue and body weight. The main phenomenological consequence reported of these SNPs is the modulation of the LEP-LEPR interaction promoting the weight gain. Particularly, Q223R polymorphism has … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2013 · 7,835 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Dynamics Studies of Human β-GlucuronidaseIbrahim Ali Noorbatcha, Ayesha Masrur Khan, Hamzah Mohd SallehProblem statement: The enzyme β-glucuronidase is being used as a reporter molecule in the area of genetic engineering, as a component of prodrug therapy in cancer treatment and in the scouring process of cotton fabrics. However, a detailed understanding of the factors responsible for the stability and the activity of this enzyme is still not available. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNifH: Structural and Mechanistic Similarities with Proteins Involved in Diverse Biological ProcessesSurobhi Lahiri, Lakshmi Pulakat, Nara GaviniThe NifH protein is a subunit of the nitrogenase enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia. This protein contains highly conserved regions including the nucleotide binding sites, metal center ligands and the Switch I and Switch II domains. A number of proteins have structural and mechanistic similarities as well as evolutionary relationships with the NifH protein, notable … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeveraging Computational Models to Analyze the Impact of Co-Branding on Brand Equity and Consumer Loyalty Across GenerationsYana Erlyana, Lim Jing YiThis study examines the effect of co-branding on brand equity and consumer loyalty in the Indonesian cosmetics sector, specifically analyzing the partnership between Mizzu, a cosmetics brand, and Khong Guan, a food brand, on the dimensions of brand experience sensory, emotional, behavioral, and intellectual and its subsequent implications for brand equity components, such as brand awareness, perceived quality, and brand … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 7 · 11 Jul 2025 · 3,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Information Content Glossary Relatedness (ICGR) Approach for Short Text Similarity (STS) TasksAli Muftah BenOmran, Mohd Juzaiddin Ab AzizThe measurement of the relatedness of word semantics based on complementary Wikipedia and WordNet-based methods takes two forms, combined and integrative, which are aimed at increasing the semantic space between related words. However, each form has its own set of issues regarding its components and the strategy that is used to combine and integrate corpus-based and knowledge-based methods. In the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 6 · 5 Jun 2018 · 7,997 accessesView PDFCite
