Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEnhanced Fatty Acid Production in Escherichia coli by Over-Expression of NADPH Generating EnzymesYuanda Song, Yong Q. Chen, Haiqin Chen et al.NADPH is an essential factor for Fatty Acid (FA) biosynthesis. The effect of NADPH generating enzymes [NADP+-dependent malic enzyme (NADP-ME), NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-IDH), Glucose 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GPD) and 6-Phosphogluconate Dehydrogenase (PGD)] on FA biosynthesis was investigated in an engineered Escherichia coli BL21 △fadE/pTE. Among NADPH-generating enzymes, GPD and ICD increased total FA production by 60 and 16% respectively. Especially … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2017 · 8,578 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRutting and Fatigue Cracking Susceptibility of Polystyrene Modified AsphaltNazim Mohamed, Demitri Ramlochan, Rean MaharajThe absence of studies investigating the influence of waste Polystyrene (PS) on the performance characteristics of rutting resistance and fatigue cracking resistance of the indigenous asphaltic materials Trinidad Lake Asphalt (TLA) and Trinidad Petroleum Bitumen (TPB), has hindered the possible use of PS as a performance enhancer as observed with other asphalts from different sources thus also developing a sustainable … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 1 Jun 2017 · 7,666 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFathers' Anger and Their Sons' Socioemotional and Academic Outcomes with Implications for ForgivenessJichan J. Kim, Robert D. EnrightIt has been empirically supported that father involvement has positive influences on child outcomes, but depending on the ways through which fathers engage with their children, negative child outcomes can ensue as well. The goal of the study was to examine which specific areas of child outcomes would be influenced by fathers' state and trait anger and total anger expression … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2017 · 8,425 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMultiaxial Fatigue Strength to Notched specimens made of 40CrMoV13.9Abedin Gagani, Raffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu et al.Fatigue is a process (succession of mechanisms) which under the action of time-varying strains or deformations modifies the local properties of a material. These can lead to the formation of cracks and eventual rupture of the structure. Fatigue is in particular characterized by an extent of variation in stress which may be well below the yield strength of the material. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2016 · 8,200 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFatigue Life Prediction of Screw Blade in Screw Sand Washing Machine under Random Load with Gauss DistributionJie Gong, Yun-Fei Fu, Wen Xia et al.The purpose of this study is to present a new method for estimating the fatigue life of the screw blade in the screw sand washing machine. To ensure the accuracy of numerical simulation, the loading area and the value of load are determined by means of the theoretical analysis. To ascertain the location of the stress peak and stress range, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2016 · 8,005 accessesView PDF Cite
