Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of the Climatic Factors on the Decay of Marbles: an Experimental StudyPaola Marini, Rossana BellopedeStone decay is affected by the influence of climatic factors. In particular marble degradation, that could be expressed by decohesion and /or bowing, is mainly due to the action of temperature and water (rains and relative humidity). In this work non destructive and destructive tests have been performed to evaluate the decay of marble slabs subjected both to natural exposition … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmobilization of Lipase from Candida Rugosa on Palm-Based Polyurethane Foam as a Support MaterialRoila Awang, Mohd Rafaei Ghazuli, Mahiran BasriLipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized onto palm-based polyurethane foam (PU), which the polymer was pre-soaked in co-immobilized agent. The activities of PU-immobilized lipase were tested by the esterification reaction of oleic acid and oleyl alcohol in hexane. The PU-immobilized lipase was then characterized in term of its thermal, operational and storage stability. The optimum temperature for native and PU-immobilized … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval and Recovery of Uranium using Microorganisms Isolated from North American Uranium DepositsTakehiko TsurutaSome attempts were made to remove and recover uranium that may be present in nuclear fuel effluents and mine tailings using microorganisms isolated from North American uranium deposits. To establish which microorganisms accumulate the most uranium, hundreds strains of microorganisms were screened. Of these strains of microorganisms tested, extremely high uranium accumulating ability was found in some bacteria isolated from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphing Mechanisms Part 1: Using Iterative Learning Control to Morph Cam Follower MotionNonglak Phetkong, Meng-Sang Chew, Richard W. LongmanThis study introduces the concept of morphing mechanisms. Mechanisms are normally designed for specific operating conditions and once they are built one may wish to use them under different operating conditions. In some cases, a mechanism may be imperfectly fabricated and one would like to get the intended ideal performance. In these cases, instead of designing, fabricating and replacing the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,840 accessesView PDFCite
