Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model to Simulate Tuberculosis Disease Population DynamicsO.K. Koriko, T.T. YusufA mathematical model to depict Tuberculosis disease population dynamics was presented. The model population was compartmentalised as appropriate and the resulting model equations were solved numerically while different instances of the disease transmission were simulated. The graphical profiles of the various sub-populations with time were presented and discussed based on the results from our simulations. Also, the disease-free and endemic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAging Study and Lifetime Estimation of Transformer Mineral OilMohammad R. MeshkatoddiniProblem statement: Power transformer is the most expensive equipment in electrical network; and the mineral oil has the main roles of insulating and cooling in it. Oil is subjected to the degradation because of the ageing, high temperature and chemical reactions such as the oxidation. Then the oil condition has to be checked regularly and reclaimed or replaced when necessary, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Mar 2008 · 11,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContribution of the Entropy Function to the Study of Collimator for Nuclear Medicine ImagingM.S. Bouhdima, I. Elloumi, M.H.B. GhozlenScintigraphic image currently used in the diagnosis or the evaluation process of tissues, is strongly dependant on several technical parameters specially collimator characteristics. The present work describes a numerical method, based on entropy function, able to specify depth and hole diameter of collimator as well as other geometrical parameters to get a better accuracy in scintigraphy evaluation. From the classical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHiding a Large Amount of Data with High Security Using Steganography AlgorithmNameer N. EL-EmamThis study deals with constructing and implementing new algorithm based on hiding a large amount of data (image, audio, text) file into color BMP image. We have been used adaptive image filtering and adaptive image segmentation with bits replacement on the appropriate pixels. These pixels are selected randomly rather than sequentially by using new concept defined by main cases with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 8,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBounds Testing Approach to Cointegration: An Examination of Foreign Direct Investment Trade and Growth RelationshipsOteng Abayie Eric Fosu, Frimpong Joseph MagnusThis study examines the long-run impact of foreign direct investment and trade on economic growth in Ghana. Using an augmented aggregate production function (APF) growth model, we apply the bounds testing (ARDL) approach to cointegration which is more appropriate for estimation in small sample studies. The data span for the study is from 1970 to 2002. We found cointegration relations … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 9,336 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Solution Code for Structural Analysis upon Joint ElementS. A. Sadrnejad, M. LabibzadehThe analysis of large structures mostly requires a complete three dimensional finite element discretization. Stability of such structures includes not only the stability of structure itself but also that of foundation as well as interconnection elements. The general instability of a structure may be affected by two aspects, firstly, an inappropriate preliminary classical design of the structure and inadequate control … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,446 accessesView PDFCite

The researcher used … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two Dimensional Infinite Element Model to Study Temperature Distribution in Human Dermal Regions due to TumorsK. R. pardasani, Madhvi shakyaIn this study, a two dimensional infinite element model has been developed to study thermal effect in human dermal regions due to tumors. This model incorporates the effect of blood mass flow rate, metabolic heat generation and thermal conductivity of the tissues.The dermal region is divided into three natural layers, namely, epidermis, dermis and subdermal tissues. A uniformly perfused tumor … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPressure-sensitivity Effects on Toughness Measurements of Compact Tension Specimens for Strain-hardening SolidsAbdulhamid A. Al-AbduljabbarThe path-independent J-integral is used as a fracture prediction criterion for loading beyond the elastic limit as Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) cannot be applied. While J was originally defined from an energy perspective, it was demonstrated that it could be inferred from load-displacement diagrams. Therefore, the Compact Tension (CT) specimen testing is used to compute J for materials. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation between Tissue and Released VEGF Levels in Urine of Bladder Cancer PatientsMenha Swellam, Abdulla A.A. El-AalPurpose. Angiogenesis is a complex multistep process essential for tumor growth. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent endothelial cell mitogen and vascular permeability-inducing agent. The aim of this study was to analyze whether tissue and urinary VEGF levels of bladder cancer patients are correlated and study their correlation with classical clinicopathological parameters and bilharizial bladder cancer patients. The … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,644 accessesView PDFCite
