Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Platelet Rich Plasma on Post Cryopreservation Viability, Morphology and Proliferation of Human Umbilical Cord Stem CellsNoviyanti Goei, Isabella Kurnia Liem, Jeanne Adiwinata Pawitan, Dian MedianaIn most cryopreservation medium, Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is used as supplement, while it is well known that FBS contains xenoproteins that can be incorporated into the cells and may be harmfull, as they can elicit immune response. Therefore, finding other xenofree materials as FBS alternative in cryopreservation medium is very important. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is albumin rich and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2015 · 7,386 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF RUBBERIZED GYPSUM BOARDTaher Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie Fini, Ashraf FadielThe disposal of scrap tires is a challenging task and hence an innovative solution to meet these challenges is needed. Extensive work has been done on the utilization of waste tires in a variety of applications in asphalt pavements and concrete. However, previous investigations focus only on the mechanical properties of the rubberized materials, but few on the thermal performance. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 14 Mar 2014 · 8,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUSE OF CRUMB RUBBER TO IMPROVE THERMAL EFFICIENCY OF CEMENT-BASED MATERIALSAshraf Fadiel, Fouad Al Rifaie, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie FiniMotivated by the tremendous trend toward green environment and to reduce the effect of scrap tires on the environment and human health, this research is an attempt to find a practical and environmentally sound solution of the problem of scrap tires by developing a light weight with low thermal conductivity composite construction materials using waste tires. A few literatures may … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 14 Mar 2014 · 12,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModification of Carbon Steel by Laser Surface Melting: Part I: Effect of Laser Beam Travelling Speed on Microstructural Features and Surface HardnessHashem F. El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe present study aims to improve the surface hardness of carbon steel by application of laser surface melting of effective conditions. The travelling speed of laser beam during this treatment is one of the important treatment conditions. This study aims to investigate the effect of laser surface melting with different beam speeds on macro and microstructure as well as the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2014 · 7,400 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA CASE FOR HYBRID INSTRUCTION ENCODING FOR REDUCING CODE SIZE IN EMBEDDED SYSTEM-ON-CHIPS BASED ON RISC PROCESSOR CORESGovindarajalu Bakthavatsalam, K. M. MehataEmbedded computing differs from general purpose computing in several aspects. In most embedded systems, size, cost and power consumption are more important than performance. In embedded System-on-Chips (SoC), memory is a scarce resource and it poses constraints on chip space, cost and power consumption. Whereas fixed instruction length feature of RISC architecture simplifies instruction decoding and pipeline implementation, its undesirable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 23 Nov 2013 · 6,825 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPublic Funding and Affordability of Substance Abuse Treatment ServicesRoberto A. Trevino, Alan J. RichardProblem statement: Substance abuse continues to cause significant personal, social and economic costs to the US economy. In order to decrease these costs, the goal of the US public health policy has been to increase access to drug treatment services by increasing their affordability. Government policy makers try to achieve such a goal by providing direct public funding to private … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2012 · 8,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContrasting Three Popular Explanations for the Muller-Lyer IllusionMichael R. WoloszynProblem statement: Using the method of adjustment, participants compared the line lengths of ‘dumbbell’ and ‘spectacle’ versions of Muller-Lyer (circles and ovals at the endpoints in place of arrowheads). Approach: Three popular competing explanations for the illusion (conflicting cues, misapplied size constancy scaling and confusion hypothesis) make differing predictions concerning the pattern of change in illusion strength when the bounding … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 22,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGermination Ecology of Rhanterium epapposum Oliv.Sameeha Zaman, Shyamala Padmesh, Harby TawfiqProblem statement: Rhanterium epapposum, locally called Arfaj is the national flower of Kuwait. The current situation of Rhanterium epapposum is quite critical in most areas of Kuwait. In fact it has completely disappeared from most parts of the country due to a combination of overgrazing, collecting for firewood and off road driving. Approach: Rhanterium epapposum is an excellent species for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of the Cuttings Cleaning During the Drilling OperationHussain H. Al-Kayiem, Nadia Mohd Zaki, Muhamad Z. Asyraf, Mahir Elya ElfeelProblem statement: Oil well cleaning is the ability of a drilling fluid to suspend and transport drilled cuttings from the down hole (bit face) to the surface. The cleaning performance was affected by many factors such as fluid viscosity, annular flow velocity, angle of inclination and drill cuttings size and shape and. Approach: Navier-Stoke equations, the continuity equation and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArabic Speaker Recognition: Babylon Levantine Subset Case StudyMansour Alsulaiman, Youssef Alotaibi, Muhammad Ghulam et al.Problem statement: Researchers on Arabic speaker recognition have used local data bases unavailable to the public. In this study we would like to investigate Arabic speaker recognition using a publically available database, namely Babylon Levantine available from the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC). Approach: Among the different methods for speaker recognition we focus on Hidden Markov Models (HMM). We studied the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,243 accessesView PDFCite
