Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn-silico Rational Protein Engineering and Design Approach to Improve Thermostability of a Haloalkane Dehalogenase EnzymeRaghunath Satpathy, V. Badireenath Konkimalla, Jagnyeswar RathaThermostability of enzymes is a major prerequisite for use in industrial enzymology. There are as such no simple general principles for achieving thermostability in case of enzymes as many factors are required to fulfil for different enzymes. The present study describes computational methods to design thermostable haloalkane dehalogenase enzyme using the crystal structure available Protein Data Bank (PDB ID: 1EDE). … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Oct 2015 · 8,279 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics of Coherent Structures in the Coupled Complex Ginzburg-Landau EquationsTat-Leung YeeProblem statement: In this study, we study the analytical construction of some exact solutions of a system of coupled physical differential equations, namely, the Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equations (CGLEs). CGLEs are intensively studied models of pattern formation in nonlinear dissipative media, with applications to biology, hydrodynamics, nonlinear optics, plasma physics, reaction-diffusion systems and many other fields. Approach: A system of two … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 6 Nov 2012 · 6,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDownstream Ecocide from Upstream Water PiracyMiah Muhammad AdelUpstream India and downstream Bangladesh share more than 50 international rivers. India has set up water diversion constructions in more than 50% of these rivers, the largest one being on the Bangladesh’s northwest upon the Ganges River, puts Bangladesh’s Gangetic ecosystem at stake. In some border rivers, India has set up groins on her side of river banks. Also, Indian … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 4 Sep 2012 · 9,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Clients’ Qualities on Green Design Performance of Building Projects in Malaysia-Descriptive StudyMohamed S. Elforgani, Ismail RahmatProblem statement: In the construction industry, success of building projects greatly depends on the client’s performance. The performance of clients is crucial since decisions made will influence the overall project performance. Typically, clients are represented by managerial and technical representatives during the design process. They play major roles in conveying required information to the design team regarding their future project. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 18 Aug 2012 · 7,695 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Three-Way Unbalance Nested Analysis of VarianceSmaila S. Sanni, Eugene C. UkaegbuProblem statement: In this study, we give a simple analytically tractable procedure for solving three-way unbalanced nested Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). In many realistic situations, unbalanced design was unavoidable due to natural constraints and missing data. Approach: Here, we present a comprehensive approach for addressing solutions of problems arising from unbalanced nested ANOVA. We consider the F-statistics under the different … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2011 · 7,717 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDamage Pattern and Nesting Characteristic of Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) in Oil Palm on PeatWei-Hong Lau, Choon-Fah J. Bong, Seow-Phan ChanThe oil palm industry of Malaysia has expanded into peat area in Sarawak. Problem statement: The subterranean termite Coptotermes curvignathus was a serious pest of oil palm on peat. Control of this termite has resorted to heavy usage of chemicals which was deemed uneconomical and hostile to the environment. Baiting system has inconsistent success due to the limited knowledge of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 8,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Cultural Management and Inheritance by Community ParticipationPichayapol Nguanthaisong, Souneth Phothisane, Sastra LaoakkaProblem statement: Museums were places where all collections, which indicated values of arts and cultural heritages that were useful for learning, were kept. Establishment of museums was successful by having development, systematic management, cultural inheritance, knowledge transferring, participation and support. Approach: This study aimed to study backgrounds of museum development in temples in the area of the lower northeastern, to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 8 Feb 2011 · 8,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Symbolic Threshold: A Dynamic form of the Mind as an Expression of Radiant ThinkingFelice Corona, Francesco Perrotta, Emilia Tartaglia Polcini, Carla CozzarelliProblem statement: The definition of "symbolic species" used by Terrence W. Deacon means more complete the process of monitoring the encounter between semiotics and cognitive sciences neurosemiotics better defined. Approach: The mechanism of the symbolic threshold means that it is put in place an approach to reality no longer seen as a representative of simple association, but under a restructuring … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 16,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Abutment Displacement of a Full Height Integral Bridges in Dense Granule BackfillM. H. Alizadeh, A.R. Khalim Rashid, Zamri Chik, S. M. MirhosseinyProblem statement: In this study, the behavior of abutment wall in full height frame integral abutment bridges was investigated. It was seen that the effect of backfill soil resistance on behavior of abutment wall movement is mostly neglected in previous studies. In this research, the final bridge superstructure displacement under temperature-induced forces was formulated. In addition, according to the final … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2010 · 8,352 accessesView PDFCite
