Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Polishing Properties of Spherical Porous Silica AbrasiveHong Lei, Hu Li, Ping Liu, Ruling ChenProblem statement: Abrasive is one of key influencing factors on the polished surface quality in Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP). Solid abrasives in CMP slurries are easy to cause polishing scratches. It is well known that reducing the hardness of abrasives would improve the polished surface quality. Therefore, the change in structure or shape of the abrasives means a change in … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 9,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Difference Electrode Materials in Electrical Discharge Machining of Tungsten CarbideP. Janmanee, A. MuttamaraProblem statement: Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is now a well-established machining option in many industries. Tungsten carbide (WC-Co) is an important tool and die material mainly because of its high hardness, strength, wear resistance and high melting point. Normally, EDM is capable of machining geometrically complex or hard material component, that are precise and difficult to machine. The objective of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,871 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSessile Drop Evaporation and Leidenfrost PhenomenonA. K. Mozumder, M. R. Ullah, A. Hossain, M. A. IslamProblem statement: Quenching and cooling are important process in manufacturing industry for controlling the mechanical properties of materials, where evaporation is a vital mode of heat transfer. Approach: This study experimentally investigated the evaporation of sessile drop for four different heated surfaces of Aluminum, Brass, Copper and Mild steel with a combination of four different liquids as Methanol, Ethanol, Water … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnisotropy Influence of Cubic Solid on Dynamic Hertzian Contact Stiffness for a Vibrating Rigid IndenterJiayong TianProblem statement: Resonance-type microscopies have been widely used to evaluate the nanoscaled or microscaled surface elastic properties of materials by the resonance-frequency shifts of an oscillator, which contacts the surface of materials by a spherical tip. Approach: The tip-specimen contact is modeled to be a spring support, whose stiffness is given by the traditional Hertzian contact theory. However, because of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,711 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSorption of Phenols: Influence of Groundwater pH and of Soil Organic Carbon ContentSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiProblem statement: Physical and chemical properties of soil, groundwater and pollutants deeply influenced the type and the strength of sorption phenomena involving hydrophobic organic contaminants: Soil fraction of organic carbon (foc) and cation exchange capacity, groundwater pH and pollutants hydrophobicity were with undoubtedly the predominant issues. Approach: In this study an experimental study of the sorption of phenol and 2-nitrophenol … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReduction of Ammonia Loss by Mixing Urea with Liquid Humic and Fulvic Acids Isolated from Tropical Peat SoilSusilawati Kasim, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid et al.Problem statement: Fertilizer N use efficiency is reduced by ammonia volatilization. Under low soil CEC and high pH, N from soil solution is released to the atmosphere. Ammonia loss due to low worldwide N use efficiency (33%) has been implicated in global warming. Thus, the objectives of this laboratory study were to evaluate the effectiveness of liquid humic and fulvic … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReducing the Environmental Impact of Olive Mill WastewaterAwni Khatib, Fathi Aqra, Nader Yaghi et al.Problem Statement: A research was needed to monitor the environmental impact of olive mill wastewater (OMW): production and relative production of olive mill waste. This was achieved by collecting data from 92 local olive mills in order to study the olive production yield, water consumption in olive washing and in oil recovery, wastewater generation relative to olive processed and oil … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrochemical Differentiation of Salinisation Process of the Water in Endoreic Semi-Arid Basin: Case of Rémila Basin, AlgeriaHouha Belgacem, Kherici Nacer, Kachi Slimane, Valles VincentThe aim of this study is to determine and treat a hierarchical basis of the various mechanisms responsible for the space variation of the water quality in a endoreic semi-arid basin. The water chemistry showed a large variability in space and time. The total dissolved solid (TDS) in water increases from upstream to downstream due to the effect of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,307 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Solution of Temperature Field in Hollow Cylinder under Time Dependent Boundary Condition Using Fourier seriesGolamali atefi, Mohammad Ali Abdous, Abdolsaeid GanjehkaviriThe objective of this study is to derive an analytical solution of one dimensional heat conduction equation applied in a hollow cylinder, which is subjected to a periodic boundary condition at the outer surface while the inner surface is insulated. The material is assumed to be homogenous and isotropic with time-independent thermal properties. Because of the time-dependent term in the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
