Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCadmium Exposure Via Food Crops: A Case Study of Intensive Farming AreaRaagheni Munisamy, Sharifah Norkhadijah Syed Ismail, Sarva Mangala PraveenaCadmium (Cd) is ubiquitous in environment and may enter food chain through intense application of phosphate fertilizers to agricultural crops. A cross-sectional study was conducted at Kuala Terla and Blue Valley farming villages, Cameron Highlands to determine cadmium concentration in vegetables and soil and to determine the health risks among respondents. A total of 87 respondents were selected based on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 Sep 2013 · 8,537 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract2-D Gel Electrophoresis Map of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Treated with Quercus Infectoria Gall ExtractDayang Fredalina Basri, Lee Seng Aik, Radhiah Khairon, Mariati Abdul RahmanThe widespread outbreak of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) has caused clinical and epidemiological concern in hospital environment. The emergence of Vancomycin-Intermediate S. Aureus (VISA) and, more recently, Vancomycin-Resistant S. Aureus (VRSA) has further alarmed clinician and scientist worlwide. The objective of this study is to determine the optimum concentration of sample protein from MRSA after treatment with acetone extract from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 7,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomatic Specification Evaluator for Effective MigrationP. Sudhakar, P. SakthivelProblem statement: Software Reengineering is an effective technique for reuse the older application in the new environment. Nowadays, Reengineering techniques are increasing in spite of many difficulties and issues arise when the older application is converted to newer one. So there is a need to enhance the new system to satisfy the user requirements and quality aspects. Approach: For this … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 14 Mar 2012 · 6,757 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModel Development for Health Promotion in the Elderly Participating in CommunitiesSupat Jampawai, Somporn Pothinam, Manop Kanato et al.Problem statement: The problem of the research derives from a lack of research study to develop the suitable model for health promotion in the elderly and examine factors concerning the health promotion in the elderly. This research aimed to study and develop suitable health promotion model for elderly participating in communities and examine factors related to the health promotion of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 30 Jul 2011 · 7,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Renewable and Nonrenewable Energies in Power Plant PlanningHabib H. Al-Ali, Yousef Saif, Ali Elkamel, Ali LohiProblem statement: Electricity can be generated from different type of technologies such as fossil and non-fossil power plants. Among these technologies, coal-fired power plants have been a major route for electricity generation. Recently, environmental constraints were imposed over the coal power plant operations in order to reduce their emissions. Besides, renewable energy power plants such as hydroelectric, wind, solar and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,811 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Nonlinear Optimal Feedback Law for Satellite Injection Problem Using Neighboring Optimal ControlHamed Hossein Afshari, Alireza Basohbat Novinzadeh, Jafar RoshanianAn optimal trajectory design of a nonlinear satellite injection problem for transfer to a final target orbit by minimizing the time was investigated. Indeed, this design was an exact solution to the nonlinear two-point boundary value problem which determined optimal control history as well as optimal state trajectories in the open-loop form. Furthermore, the obtained optimal guidance strategy was exerted … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplification of Sun Tracking Mode to Gain High Concentration Solar EnergyOmar Aliman, Ismail Daut, Muzamir Isa, Mohd Rafi AdzmanPower conversion from solar thermal energy to electrical energy is still very cost-intensive. Serious effort has to be given in the development of the concentrator or heliostat structure expenditure which contributing the most expensive component in a central receiver solar power plant. With current development to find alternatives and lower down the capital, a new mode of sun tracking has … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,190 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of an Adaptive Control for a RobotIraj Hassanzadeh, Abbas Harifi, Farid ArvaniThis research investigates the performance of an adaptive controller for five-bar linkage robot. The proposed controller was entirely independent on the physical specifications of the robot. The controller was examined as the dynamics of the mechanical system varies for various environment conditions, which make it an ambiguous system. In this study, the introduced controller was designed based on the governing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 6,647 accessesView PDFCite
