Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLiquefaction Susceptibility in the Northern Provinces of ThailandSupot Teachavorasinskun, Pichai Pattararattanakul, Pulpong PongvithayapranuProblem statement: There are quite a few active faults recently found in the western and northern parts of Thailand, which could possibly induce earthquakes of magnitude (ML) of 5.5-6.5. Although seismic design code has been enforced in the area since 1980, the fundamental knowledge on dynamic soil behavior has not been extensively attained. Approach: Collection of existing borehole information in … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,337 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClinical Evidence of Autologous Graft versus Tumor EffectLuis F. PorrataProblem statement: The infused alloreactive lymphocytes in allogeneic stem cell transplantation (Allo-SCT) lead to an unspecific immune response causing Graft-Versus-Tumor (GVT) effect and Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD). The current dogma regarding the anti-tumor effect of GVT is only observed in the Allo-SCT and not in the autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT). Approach: This article reviewed the medical literature to show … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCase Study: A Strategic Research MethodologyKhairul Baharein Mohd NoorThis research reviews the literature on case study as a strategic qualitative research methodology. Although case studies have been criticised by some authors as lacking scientific rigour and do not address generalizability, this research, however, reiterated its appropriateness when dealing with a process or a complex real-life activities in great-depth. Case study has been commonly used in social science fields … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 51,373 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThickness Analysis of Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) Slab Compacted Using a Newly Developed Roller CompactorR. Muniandy, F.M. Jakarni, S. Hassim, A.R. MahmudPavement mix design procedures and specifications are usually derived from laboratory experiments. Therefore, laboratory experiments should be able to simulate to a high degree the conditions in the field, especially in term of compaction procedures. Based on literature reviews and analysis of past studies, it can be concluded that there are no exact method for laboratory compaction that can simulate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Scale to Measure SuperstitionMd. Mahfuzul Huque, Ataharul Huq ChowdhuryThe purpose of the study was to construct a scale to measure superstition in a rural setting. A total of 31 statements or items expressing superstition were collected through reviewing relevant literature, consultation with extension experts, social scientists, progressive farmers and local leaders Statements were carefully examined and edited as per the criteria of Edwards[1]. The statements were employed to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutritional Alterations in Drug Abusers With and Without HIVJanet E. ForresterMany studies have found that drug abusers have nutritional deficits, including weight deficits. The most plausible explanation for these deficits is dietary insufficiency. However, studies using objective measures of the dietary intake of drug abusers have failed to provide evidence of dietary insufficiency. Other mechanisms have rarely been examined. This article reviews the published literature on the nutritional status of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,450 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessAll words, across the recordTopological Approaches to Mechatronic Systems: A ReviewJean Bosco Samon, Damasse Harold TchouazongAn interest in the mechanical topology approach is to reduce the mass considerably in order to minimize the costs of manufacturing, transporting and purchasing products. The same interest can be found in mechatronic topological approaches where many disciplines should be fit together, facing therefore many and variant constraints. Distinguish topological approaches are found in the literature. Many are more specific … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2022 · 6,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Review of the Fatigue Strength of Load Carrying Shear Welded JointsFilippo Berto, Abedin Gagani, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Florian Ion T. PetrescuIn the study it is shown an overview of the latest results of two types of joints of the load carrying welded shear. Tests of fatigue have been carried out on the two solutions specific design features proposed and with the aim of improving the resistance of the joints under cycling loading.

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOpen Source Programmers' Information Seeking During Software MaintenanceKhaironi Yatim Sharif, Mohd Rosmadi Mokhtar, Jim BuckleyProblem statement: Several authors have proposed information seeking as an appropriate case study for studying software maintenance and evolution that have provided empirical classifications of information seeking in commercial software evolution settings. Approach: However, there is minimal research in the literature describing the information seeking behavior of Open Source programmers, even though Open Source contexts would seem to exacerbate the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 8,151 accessesView PDFCite
