Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUse of 2D Multi Electrodes Resistivity Imagining for Sinkholes Hazard Assessment along the Eastern Part of the Dead Sea, JordanAbdallah S. Al-Zoubi, Abd El-Rahman A. Abueladas, Rami I. Al-Rzouq et al.Sinkholes and subsidence are natural phenomena can be occurred in shallow geology sediments at different regions in the world. Sinkholes assessment is one of the most difficult near subsurface investigations. Geophysical prospecting is appropriate method to determine environmental and geotechnical problems. 2D multi electrodes resistivity imagining with Wenner-Schulmberge array was conducted within active sinkholes area. The objective of the survey … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRadiation Hazards Due to Radon Concentrations in Dwellings of Kufa Technical Institute, 'Iraq'Ali Abid Abojassim Al-Hamidawi, Afnan Ali HusainRadon concentrations were measured in Kufa dwellings of the technical institute, Al-Najaf- Iraq using LR-115 type II plastic track detectors. Additionally, annual effective dose and the excess lifetime cancer risk for the aforementioned dwellings were calculated. The results demonstrate that the radon concentration ranged from 37.4±6.4 Bq/m3 to 55.7±12.0 Bq/m3 with an average of 46.2±8.2 Bq/m3. The latter is found … …Physics International, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2016 · 8,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHepatoprotective Effect of N-Acetylcystiene on the Toxic Hazards of titanium Dioxide NanoparticlesHossam Fouad Attia, Mohamed Mohamed Soliman, Gamal Hassan Abdel-Rahman et al.The present study was directed to evaluate the toxic effects of orally administered titanium dioxide naonparticles (TiO2) on liver of male albino rats and to evaluate the ameliorative effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Forty adult male albino rats were divided into 4 groups; control group, NAC group, TiO2 group and TiO2/ NAC group. Rats were administered either TiO2 (1200 mg kg-1 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 26 Sep 2013 · 8,133 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAutomobile Spray Paint Dust and Human Health: A Multi-Site Environmental Health Risk Assessment of Carcinogenic and Non-Carcinogenic Effects in South-Eastern NigeriaAdindu Ihuoma Blossom, Ubouh Emmanuel Attah, Obasi Kalu Omokorie, Raimi Morufu OlalekanInformal automobile spray-painting operations release metal-laden dust, posing occupational and residential health risks. Seasonal variations, receptor-specific exposure, and metal composition influence non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic hazards, yet data from South-Eastern Nigeria remain limited. This study quantified heavy-metal exposure in automobile spray-paint dust, assessed receptor-specific non-carcinogenic (HI) and carcinogenic (ILCR) risks, examined seasonal and metal-specific trends, and evaluated source attribution to inform … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 22 Jun 2026 · 1,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEnhancing Lifetime Data Modeling With the Modified Version of Weibull Distribution: A Comparative ApproachArjun Kumar Gaire, Shahid Mohammad, Yogendra Bahadur GurungThis study introduces a new two-parameter univariate distribution, a modified version of the Weibull distribution, for a non-negative realm. Originating from a framework introduced by Azzalini and Capitanio, the distribution exhibits a monotonically increasing hazard rate. It offers closed-form expressions for key statistical properties, including reliability functions, moments, moment-generating functions, and order statistics. An expression for random number generation is … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 8 Oct 2025 · 3,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAlpha Power Inverted Exponentiated Weibull Distribution with Data ApplicationsAbdulkareem M. BasheerA novel extension of the Inverted Exponentiated Weibull (IEW) distribution is achieved through the utilization of the generator Alpha Power (AP) transformation. The resulting extended distribution is denoted as the Alpha Power Inverted Exponentiated Weibull (APIEW) distribution, which encompasses various sub-models. The statistical characteristics of the newly proposed distribution are established, encompassing the hazard rate function, mean residual life, mean … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2024 · 8,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA New Family: Σh DistributionsYasser Mohamed Amer, Rania Mustafa ShalabiIn this study, a new method is proposed for generating families of the sum of the hazard functions for two distributions named the Σh distributions. This new family will help in the application of a wider range of life time data. Many new distributions, which are members of the family, are presented with emphasis on the Σh Exponential-Lomax distribution.
