Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrganic Fertilizers: An Agroecological and Commercial Bet On Smallholders in the Sumapaz RegionElizabeth Ann Escobar Cazal, Taha Ahmadi, Diego Fabián Bejarano Morales et al.The feasibility of an agroecological project is supported, among other factors, by the cost-benefit relationship, which tends to shift profitability paradigms on organic fertilizers within the context of long-term finances. For this purpose, the objective of this paper is to carry out a financial study to market organic fertilizers (compost and vermicompost) in the Sumapaz region. An initial analysis of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 29 Jul 2020 · 6,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Profitability Analysis and Policy Options for Sustaining Integrated Pest Management Practices on Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) ProductionKaynath Akhi, Shamima IslamThis study examined the comparative profitability of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) production between Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and non-Integrated Pest Management (non-IPM) farmers and tried to find out the policy recommendations for sustaining this practice in vegetable production. A total of 80 farmers (40 from each group) were purposively selected from Tangail district of Bangladesh through the interview schedule. To … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2020 · 7,276 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Modeling the Prosthetic Foot from Suitable Composite MaterialsHasan Saad Mohammed, Jasim Mohammed SalmanThis work concerns developing a composite material, which can be used in manufacturing prosthetic feet with a reasonable cost and satisfying mechanical properties. The characteristics were investigated by mechanical tests of tensile properties and Charpy impact strength. The study of date palm wood and its effects on the mechanical properties of polyethylene have received little attention. It was found that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2020 · 7,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Fragility Assessment of RC Frame Equipped by Visco-Elastic Dampers Using NLTHA and FNAAli A. Rostam Alilou, Majid PouraminianIn recent years, the issue of lower computational cost and analysis time has been the important factors for the structural analysts. In the meantime, after years of its introduction as an analysis having features of nonlinear analysis, the Fast Nonlinear Analysis (FNA) claims to have a higher performance speed than other nonlinear analyses, but has been less used by the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2019 · 8,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Lowest Priority Approach with Largest Point Scheme for Faster Feasibility AnalysisNasro Min-AllahRecently many solutions have been proposed to lower the computational cost of feasibility analysis for real-time systems. The computational cost of feasibility tests can be lowered by strategies such as lowering the number of scheduling points needed during analysis, starting feasibility analysis from lowest priority, or starting schedulability tests for a task with larger scheduling point. All these techniques significantly … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 26 Apr 2019 · 7,250 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombining Model-Based Testing and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis for Test Case Prioritization: A Software Testing ApproachAtifi Meriem, Marzak AbdelazizDue to The complexity of modern software projects and the increasing size of software systems, it becomes difficult to manually perform tests with limited resources. Also, manual testing cannot assure that the software is tested using all possible combinations of inputs. Therefore, automate software testing activities have become primordial in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Model-based testing is a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2019 · 8,225 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping an Integrated Method for Optimal Design of Chilled Water Plants in HVAC SystemsNabil Nassif, Nihal Al Raees, Fouad Al Rifaie, Taher Abu-LebdehBuildings account for a large portion of energy use in the US. Many those buildings have equipped with central plants to produce chilled water supplied to central air handling units. The chilled water plant design can have a significant impact on building energy uses and costs. In this paper, an integrated method for optimal design of chilled water plants is … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2019 · 6,592 accessesView PDFCite
