Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCeppo Morelli Block-Falls Probability Study to Support the Decision of Excavating a by-Pass TunnelS. Longo, P. OresteProblem statement: In this article, some important aspects linked to the new Ceppo Morelli (Piemonte, Italy) future by-pass tunnel construction were considered. Approach: The article concerned a mountainous region which in the past was affected by slope landslides and block falls that reached a downhill roadway and two nearby villages. Results: Using risk analysis approach the probability of block-falls down … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 7,688 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWind Load Effects on Manufactured Home FoundationsRamesh K. Dhungana, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie H. FiniProblem statement: Manufactured homes are susceptible to hurricane damage. Each year, significant losses, in terms of fatalities and property damage, are reported. There is always a prevalent concern about lateral load resistance capacity of tie-down system of manufactured homes when subjected to windstorms. This study is performed to determine the effects of hurricane wind on manufactured homes’ foundations. Approach: A … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 25 Jan 2012 · 8,333 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Debarking and Insecticidal Treatments Using Cypermethrin on Fresh Logs of Indonesian Pine, Pinus merkusii, on Attack by Ambrosia Beetle, Xyleborus sp.Paimin Sukartana, Mohammad Muslich, Ginuk SumarniProblem statement: Indonesian pine logs (Pinus merkusii Yungh. et de Vr.) are vulnerable to attack by ambrosia beetle Xyleborus sp. Fresh cut logs kept for months in logging area are subject to heavily attack by the beetles. Approach: An experiment was conducted to evaluate effectiveness of debarking and insecticidal treatments using cypermethrin on fresh logs of the wood species on … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2011 · 7,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStudy of the Permeability of Foam Conditioned Soils with Laboratory TestsLuca Borio, Daniele PeilaProblem statement: EPB tunneling requires that the excavated soil has a plastic and pulpy behavior to be able to apply a stabilizing pressure to the face, but it should also be impervious to counteract filtration forces that could develop ahead of the face. The evaluation of this parameter in granular soil, before and after conditioning, is therefore of key importance … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 8,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMost Used Rock Mass Classifications for Underground OpeningAl-Jbori A’ssim, Zhang Y. XingProblem statement: Rock mass characterization is an integral part of rock engineering practice. The empirical design methods based on rock mass classifications systems provide quick assessments of the support requirements for underground excavations at any stage of a project, even if the available geotechnical data are limited. The underground excavation industry tends to lean on empirical approaches such as rock … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite

This application-based technology today is called Nano Power Electronics. It utilizes nano electronic transistors in switching applications in the range of nano power for signal shaping purposes. In recent years Single Electron Transistors are highly interested in nano electronic applications. They have got inherently fast tunneling rate, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPhase Transition in Φ6 PotentialHatem WidyanScalar field theory with an asymmetric potential was studied at zero temperature and high-temperature for Φ6 potential. The equations of motion are solved numerically to obtain O(4) spherical symmetric and O(3) cylindrical symmetric bounce solutions. These solutions control the rates for tunneling from the false vacuum to the true vacuum by bubble formation. The range of validity of the thin-wall … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 6,881 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsData Path Management Mechanism to Mesh Base Stations in WiMAXSahar Abdul Aziz Al-Talib, Noor Raad SaadallahThree options are popular today for design of wireless networks - Point-to-Point, Point-to-Multipoint and Mesh topologies. Worldwide interoperability of microwave access (WiMAX) is most often associated with the point-to-multipoint (PMP) topology. For some requirements, the configuration of the base stations (BSs) is aimed to be as mesh. Mesh offers a combination of point-to-point and point-to-multipoint capability by having each of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 22 Mar 2019 · 7,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNonlinear Analysis of RC Box Culverts Resting on a Linear Elastic SoilDaniele Baraldi, Fabio Minghini, Enrico Tezzon, Nerio TulliniIn the analyses presented, the soil-structure interaction is accounted for by means of a FE-BIE approach, in which the structure is modelled with displacement-based beam finite elements, whereas the boundary between structure and substrate is described in terms of surface tractions by means of a boundary integral equation incorporating a suitable Green's function. This mixed formulation ensures full continuity between … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2018 · 12,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRecycled High-Density Polyethylene and Rice Husk as a Wetted Pad in Evaporative Cooling SystemNitipong Soponpongpipat, Sukum KositchaimongkolProblem statement: The low cost and easy-to-find materials, for being used as wetted pad of evaporative cooling system, are necessary for agriculture. This study, thus, studied the evaporative cooling efficiency and pressure drop of recycled High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and rice husk as a wetted pad in evaporative cooling system. Approach: The study was done by establishing the tested wetted pad … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 8,704 accessesView PDFCite
