Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Wheat-Chickpea Intercrops as Influenced by Nitrogen and Weed ManagementA. Abdulahi, A. Dabbagh Mohammadi Nassab, S. Nasrolahzadeh et al.Wheat and chickpea are most important crops in dryland farming areas of Iran. Weeds have major impact on chickpea grain yield. This experiment was carried out to increase land use efficiency and weed suppression through intercropping in dryland agricultural research station-Sararood, Kermanshah, Iran during 2008-10. The experimental design layout was factorial split plot based on randomized complete block design with … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Dec 2012 · 8,681 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed Species Grazing of Cattle and Goats on Gastrointestinal Infections of Haemonchus ContortusRenita Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Lisa Gray, Yemane GhebreiyessusAt the present time, the meat of goat is the fastest growing class of livestock in the U.S.A. Due to the sub-tropical climate in the South Eastern region of the US, internal parasites pose a major constraint to the industry. The blood-feeding nematode, Haemonchus contortus results in production losses and even death in untreated animals. The control of H. contortus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2012 · 8,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFree Convection over a Permeable Horizontal Flat Plate Embedded in a Porous Medium with Radiation Effects and Mixed Thermal Boundary ConditionsMohd Zuki Salleh, Najihah Mohamed, Roziena Khairuddin et al.Problem statement: In this study, the mathematical modeling of free convection boundary layer flow over a permeable horizontal flat plate embedded in a porous medium under mixed thermal boundary conditions and radiation effects is considered. Approach: The transformed boundary layer equations are solved numerically using the shooting method. Results: Numerical solutions are obtained for the wall temperature, the heat transfer … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2012 · 8,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransient MHD Mixed Double Diffusive Convection Along a Vertical Plate Embedded in a Non-Darcy Porous Medium with Suction or InjectionKhaled K. JaberProblem statement: Transient non-Darcy mixed double convection from a semi-infinite, isothermal vertical plate embedded in a homogeneous porous medium, in the presence of surface suction or injection had been numerically investigated. Approach: Forchheimer extension was considered in the flow equations. Appropriate transformations were employed to transform the derived partial differential equations governing the problem under consideration on the assumption of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2011 · 7,121 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed-Polarity Azeotropic Solvents for Efficient Extraction of Lipids from Nannochloropsis MicroalgaeRobert D. Long, Elseddik AbdelkaderProblem statement: The extraction of lipids from microalgae for biofuel production is a significant problem due to the intractability of their cell wall. The aim of this study of lipid extraction from Nannochloropsis microalgae was to examine the relative efficiencies of some commonly used solvent systems and test the use of co-boiling solvents in Soxhlet extraction as an improved method. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 Aug 2011 · 9,387 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReliability Equivalence Factors of a System with 2 Non-identical Mixed Lifetimes and Delayed TimeAbdelfattah Mustafa, Adel A. El-FaheemProblem statement: In reliability theory and operations research, there are many methods and techniques to improve the performance of a system. The aim of this study is to generalize reliability equivalence technique to apply it to a mixed failure lifetimes system f1 (t), f2 (t) with delayed time. Approach: We shall improve the system by using some reliability techniques: (i) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2011 · 7,548 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReliability Equivalence Factors of a System with m Non-Identical Mixed of LifetimesAbdelfattah Mustafa, Adel A. El-FaheemProblem statement: The aim of this study is to generalize reliability equivalence technique to apply it to a system consists of m independent and non-identical lifetimes distributions, with mixed failure lifetimes f1(t),f2(t),…,fm(t). Approach: We shall improve the system by using some reliability techniques: (i) reducing the failure for some lifetimes; (ii) add hot duplication component; (iii) add cold duplication component; … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Nanoparticles of Mixed Oxides Containing Titanium Cerium Silver and Silicon: Phase TransformationAkkarat Wongkaew, Waree Jansome, Supachai Khemchan et al.Problem statement: Titanium dioxide is a well known material using with self-cleaning application. This is due to its properties after exposed to UV light: Superhydrophilicity and photocatalysis. The addition of other oxides could prolong these properties without continuing exposed to UV. However, titanium dioxide phase is essential. In order to obtain these properties, titanium dioxide needs to be in anatase … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Genetic Correlations on Sweet Corn Inbred Lines Using SAS Mixed ModelPedram Kashiani, Ghizan SalehProblem statement: Genetic correlations among traits refer to the extent of relatedness among them due to genetic causes. Estimating genetic correlations for quantitative traits is tedious if done manually. Approach: However, the use of the computer software SAS, applying mixed-model analysis of variance has facilitated many recent studies in evolutionary quantitative genetics. Results: In this two-way statistical model, the variance … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 10,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModel for Analyzing Counts with Over-,Equi-and Under-Dispersion in Actuarial StatisticsNaushad Mamode Khan, Maleika Heenaye-Mamode KhanProblem statement: Actuarial science has grown much popularity in the recent years due to the growth of insurance companies. In practice, the data involved in actuarial science are mostly counts which may be over-,equi-or under-dispersed.
