Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractCryptosporidiosis in Ruminants: Update and Current Therapeutic ApproachesCeren Dinler, Bulent UlutasCryptosporidium species causes asymptomatic or mild to severe gastrointestinal disease in their broad range of host species. These host species include humans, domestic and wild animals worldwide. The importance of cryptosporidiosis in ruminants has been emphasised in recent years for not only mortality, delayed growth and economic losses in the farm but also zoonotic importance. So more than 200 substances … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 15 Jun 2017 · 8,454 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuilding Energy Modeling Using Artificial Neural NetworksMaya Arida, Nabil Nassif, Rand Talib, Taher Abu-LebdehAccurate modeling of total building energy is now vital to reduce energy consumption. This is especially true for buildings since they are considered as the largest energy consumer in the United States. This paper investigates modeling methods for building energy-systems using non-linear auto-regression artificial neural networks. The proposed model can forecast the whole building energy consumptions given the four input … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-Phase Support Vector Regression Soft Sensor for Online Product Quality Prediction in Glutamate Fermentation ProcessRongjian Zheng, Feng PanGlutamate fermentation is inherently nonlinear, multi-phase and an aerobic fermentation process. As long measurement delays and expensive apparatus cost, on-line measurement of the product concentration is not necessarily available. The present fermentation process monitoring and quality prediction involve manual interpretation of highly informative, however, the concentrations of substrates, biomass and products are only low frequency off-line measurements. In this paper, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 8,070 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing the Newspaper Distribution Scenarios using Genetic Algorithm: A Case Study of IndiaSachin Suresh Kamble, Rakesh Raut, Shradha Ashok GawankarThis paper attempts to optimize the various newspaper distribution scenario as observed in India. It found from the literature that earlier research work carried out in optimizing the vehicle routing networks problem using time window and scope was limited to distribution from newspaper printing location to the vendor point of distribution. This paper focuses on the distribution of newspaper from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 12 Apr 2017 · 8,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping and Testing Dynamic Models for HVAC Systems Using System Identification ApproachNabil Nassif, Jasmine Buford, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThis paper proposes integrated modeling and optimization methods for a chilled water HVAC system using a system identification approach. Two multiple input-single output models are developed to find the supply air temperature and fan power of the investigated chilled water air handling unit AHU. To test the proposed models, actual data are collected from existing HVAC systems. Different fan and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2017 · 7,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Tradeoffs in Herbicide Resistant Brassica rapa: Effects on Pollen and Ovule Production, Biomass and DevelopmentRobin Bingham, Pamela King, Andrew G. KeckFor decades, herbicides have been used to control weeds and increase crop yields, a practice resulting in a growing number of weeds that are herbicide resistant. Like the problem of antibiotic resistance for medicine, herbicide resistant weeds present a significant agricultural challenge. To meet this challenge, we need management strategies informed by a more complete understanding of the biology of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2017 · 7,828 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Evaluation of the Raking Energy in Damping System of Steel Stud Partition WallsSalah Amer, Sameer Hamoush, Taher M. Abu-LebdehNonstructural partition walls are usually specified based on the best practice without any structural design calculations. However, given the likely severe earthquake damage to nonstructural components and the substantial cost of repair to such components, it is imperative that we develop an understanding of the seismic response of the nonstructural partition walls when subjected to earthquake loading conditions. The main … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2015 · 7,644 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Unilateral Cervical Vagotomy on Murine Dendritic CellsDaniel Sanzio Gimenes da Cruz, Ana Paula Nascimento de Lima, Patrícia Benites Gonçalves da Silva et al.The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway has been demonstrated to be an important mechanism that modulates several inflammatory diseases. This modulation occurs upon activation of the vagus nerve, which modulates splenic macrophages and lymphocytes through the predominant neurotransmitter, Acetylcholine (ACh). We hypothesized that this modulation could also take place in dendritic cells, as these cells represent a link between the innate and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2015 · 6,949 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSystem Dynamics Analysis of the Determinants of the Malaysian Palm Oil PriceSahra Mohammadi, Fatimah Mohamed Arshad, Bilash Kanti Bala, Abdulla IbragimovThis paper investigates the major determinants of the Malaysian palm oil price using a system dynamics approach. System dynamics methodology is very relevant for examining the feedback relationships, non-linearity and delays exist in palm oil market. It helps understand the palm oil market structure and the resultant behavior and performance particularly On crude Palm Oil (CPO) price. The simulation results … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 10 Jul 2015 · 7,309 accessesView PDFCite
