The aim of the work was to identify candidate genes associated with milk production traits in Red Gorbatov cattle using a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 12 Oct 2024 · 4,736 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Strategic Initiatives on the Adaptation of Enterprise ArchitectureWissal Daoudi, Kawtar Imgharene, Karim Doumi, Laila KjiriNowadays, companies are immersed in disruptive environments. To thrive in the ‘new normal’, they drive strategic initiatives resulting in changes with unpredictable frequencies and extents. These changes impact different elements of the company, which makes them a crucial matter for enterprise architecture. However, the traditional management operating models have become overstrained, which leads to existential threats. Therefore, the adaptation of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 11 · 19 Sep 2023 · 5,722 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWelded Connections of Wind Turbine Towers under Fatigue Loading: Finite Element Analysis and Comparative StudyNafsika Stavridou, Evangelos Efthymiou, Charalampos C. BaniotopoulosIncreased contemporary energy needs have led to multiple investments on wind power plants and structural improvements are considered necessary for the construction of taller, more robust and more economical structures. Tubular steel wind turbine towers that are the prevailing structural configuration, demand welding of circular subparts to construct the tower structure. These circumferential welds between tower subparts and between the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Aug 2015 · 8,894 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmbedded Computer Based Active Vibration Control System for Vibration Reduction of Flexible StructuresVenkata Ratnam Tatavolu, Seetha Ramaiah PanchumarthyResearch on Active Vibration Control System (AVCS) is being carried out to reduce structural vibrations caused by unwanted vibrations in many application areas such as in space, aircraft structures, satellites, automobiles and civil structures (bridges), particularly at low frequencies. The unwanted vibration may cause damage to the structure or degradation to the structure’s performance. The AVCS comprises physical plant, a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 Jun 2013 · 6,550 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Temporal Yield Trend of Oil Palm as Influenced by Nitrogen Fertilizer ManagementAbdul Rahim Anuar, Kah Joh Goh, Tee Bee Heoh, Osumanu Haruna AhmedOne of the major challenges in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plantations today is proper interpretation of yield maps for site-specific management and identification and understanding of the causal factors influencing the variability of oil palm yields. A study was conducted to examine the structural yield variation in order to assess the spatial and temporal yield trends so as to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,549 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Assessment of Compressive Size Effect of Plane Concrete Using Combination of Micro-Plane Damage Based Model and 3D Finite Elements ApproachM. Labibzadeh, S. A. Sadrnejad, M. NaisipourIn recent years, the material behavior dependence of laboratory concrete specimens built with the same concrete mixture under the same load conditions to their geometrical sizes is well established. This phenomenon which is observed not only in concrete but also in most quasi-brittle materials such as rock, ceramic or composite materials is now called as size effect. Many of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,005 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtein Molecular Structures, Protein SubFractions, and Protein Availability Affected by Heat Processing: A ReviewPeiqiang YuThe utilization and availability of protein depended on the types of protein and their specific susceptibility to enzymatic hydrolysis (inhibitory activities) in the gastrointestine and was highly associated with protein molecular structures. Studying internal protein structure and protein subfraction profiles leaded to an understanding of the components that make up a whole protein. An understanding of the molecular structure of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,286 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Efficient Thermal Conversion Technologies and HHV from Compositional Characteristics of Cassava Peelings, Plantain Peelings and Corn CobsSamomssa Inna, Oumarou Amadou Amadou, Jiokap Nono Yvette et al.The understanding of compositional characteristics permits to predict the efficient thermal conversion technologies and Higher Heating Value (HHV). Although HHV can be determined directly, many models have been proposed for HHV prediction. They are based on proximate, ultimate, and structural analysis and require much data collected. The present work assesses to predict efficient thermal conversion technologies and HHV of the … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2022 · 10,157 accessesView PDF Cite
