Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLet's Talk about Sex: An Evolving Research Program in Perinatal SexualityViola PolomenoThis article presents the definition of a research program and how to develop one. The author offers her own experience as an example. Problem statement: There was a dearth of literature on how-to articles on 'how to' establish a research program. Approach: This article presents the author's evolving research program in perinatal sexuality which focuses on the couple's intimacy in … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 24 Dec 2010 · 8,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMass Spectrometry/Mass Spectrometry Study on the Degradation of B-Aflatoxins in Maize with Aqueous Citric AcidA. Méndez-Albores, I. Nicolás-Vázquez, R. Miranda-Ruvalcaba, E. Moreno-MartÍnezDegradation of B-aflatoxins in maize by means of 1N aqueous citric acid was confirmed by the AFLATEST immunoaffinity column method, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) and computational information. The AFLATEST and HPLC assays showed that 96.7% degradation occurred in maize contaminated with 93 ng g-1 when treated with the aqueous citric acid. Two major products, produced … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 8,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Voice of Exit - Towards a Theory of Democratic InconsistencyMarco GoliThe international armed conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan are only the most apparent manifestation of the dilemmas that challenge the European liberal democracy. A much more crucial paradox, as far as certain European countries are concerned, is produced by the inertia of the democratic game it self. That is the construction of religious and ethnic affiliation as the very entrance … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTowards Two-tier Universalism? A Discussion of the Welfare PrincipleCatharina Juul KristensenIn this study the common political discourse on the ‘challenge of immigration’ to the Danish welfare state is turned on its head. Instead of focusing on the costs and difficulties of immigration, the focus is first upon the challenge that recent policies on immigration and integration constitute to the principle of universalism; and second upon the ability of the principle … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsModeling of Particle Separation in Bends of Rectangular Cross-sectionBingtao ZhaoA new theoretical model for predicting particle separation efficiency in bends is developed based on the investigation of flow pattern, the critical particle size separation theory and the boundary layer separation theory. The radial particle concentration gradient, instead of the usually assumed uniform radial particle concentration within the bends, is considered in this mathematical model. The local particle concentration and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOpen Source Programmers' Information Seeking During Software MaintenanceKhaironi Yatim Sharif, Mohd Rosmadi Mokhtar, Jim BuckleyProblem statement: Several authors have proposed information seeking as an appropriate case study for studying software maintenance and evolution that have provided empirical classifications of information seeking in commercial software evolution settings. Approach: However, there is minimal research in the literature describing the information seeking behavior of Open Source programmers, even though Open Source contexts would seem to exacerbate the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIdentification of Pharmacological Targets Combining Docking and Molecular Dynamics SimulationsIlizaliturri-Flores Ian, Rosas-Trigueros Jorge Luis, Carrillo-Vazquez Jonathan Pablo et al.Studies that include both experimental data and computational simulations (in silico) have increased in number because the techniques are complementary. In silico methodologies are currently an essential component of drug design; moreover, identification and optimization of the best ligand based on the structures of biomolecules are common scientific challenges. Geometric structural properties of biomolecules explain their behavior and interactions and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2013 · 8,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImprovement of the Runner Design of Francis Turbine using Computational Fluid DynamicsSuthep Kaewnai, Somchai WongwisesProblem statement: The objective of this study is to improve runner design of the Francis turbine and analyze its performance with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique. Approach: A runner design process uses a direct method with the following design conditions: flow rate of 3.12m3/sec head of 46.4 m and speed of 750 rpm or dimensionless specific speed of 0.472. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 25 Jan 2012 · 8,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAttitudes of High School Students toward Physical Education and Their Sport Activity PreferencesHoward Z. Zeng, Michael Hipscher, Raymond W. LeungProblem statement: Identifying and understanding correlates of school children’s physical education activity participation are critical to promoting current and lifelong physical activity participation of children. Among other factors, children’s attitudes are considered to be a key element influencing physical activity participation. Children who have more positive attitudes toward physical activity are reported to be more likely to participate in physical … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 15 Aug 2011 · 19,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign Dynamic Coupling Measurement of Distributed Object Oriented Software Using Trace EventsS. Babu, R. M.S. ParvathiProblem statement: A common way to define and measure coupling is through structural properties and static code analysis. However, because of polymorphism, dynamic binding and the common presence of unused code in commercial software, the resulting coupling measures are imprecise as they do not perfectly reflect the actual coupling taking place among classes at run-time. For example, when using static … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 6,934 accessesView PDFCite
