Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeologic Mapping of United Arab Emirates using Multispectral Remotely Sensed DataMaged Marghany, Shattri Mansor, Mazlan HashimProblem statement: Geological studies are requiring standard methods and procedures to acquire precisely information. However, traditional methods might be difficult to use due to highly earth complex topography. Regarding the previous prospective, the advantage of satellite remote sensing in its application to geology is the wide coverage over the area of interest, where much accurate and useful information such as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Assessment of the Electric Power Quality and Electrical Installation Impacts on Medical Electrical Equipment Operations at Health Care FacilitiesMário César Giacco Ramos, Carlos Márcio Vieira TahanProblem statement: Medical electrical equipments at health care facilities presented malfunction and wrong medical information due to poor electric power quality and to inadequate electrical Installations. Some equipment such as X-ray, computerized axial tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are considered as polluting ones due to their high amount of harmonics and voltage transients produced on the electrical power supply when … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,517 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMineralogy and Chemistry of Coronadite from Middle Cambrian Manganese Deposits at Wadi Dana, Southern JordanAhmad Al-Malabeh, Tayel El-HasanCoronadite was reported from the upper-most horizons of the Middle Cambrian sediments at two locations in Wadi Dana, central Wadi Araba and Jordan. The unit is composed of dolomite, limestone and shale. Geochemical investigations show appreciable variations in Mn, Pb, Fe, K and Ba contents in the coronadite between the two studied sites. Pb was found to increase downward in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,551 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Effect of Pile Skin Resistance Verses Pile Diameter Based on Experimental ResearchS. M. Marandi, M.A. KarimzadehIn spite of the many recent advances in pile design and execution methods, the quantitative effects of grouted pile skin resistance and form on subsequent pile behavior remains an area for research. There are many parameters involved in the analysis of the bearing capacity of piles and descriptive method theory of the loading effect for each parameter is very complex. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of Embryogenic Callus and Plant Regeneration in Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.)Omid KaramiIn this study, efficient plant regeneration through somatic embryogenesis is achieved in four cultivars of carnation (Nelson, Sagres, Spirit and Impulse). Embryogenic calli were induced on petal explants only, all the calli established on leaf, sepal, receptacle and style explants were not embryogenic. Embryogenic calli were obtained on Morashige and Skoog basal medium (1962) containing sucrose 9%, 2.0 mg L-1 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,815 accessesView PDFCite
