Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Reuse Potential of Chemical Sludge from Textile Wastewater Treatment Plants in India-A Hazardous WasteHema Patel, Suneel PandeyProblem statement: This study was conducted to explore the reuse potential of the chemical sludge (considered as hazardous waste as per Indian Government Hazardous Waste Management Rules) generated from combined effluent treatment in textile clusters. These textile clusters mainly cover the cotton dyeing and printing operations. Approach: Therefore, treatability studies of chemical sludge were conducted using solidification/stabilization treatment to examine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Model For Sieves' Vibrations Analysis, Using an Algorithm Based on the False-Position MethodDinu I. Stoicovici, Miorita Ungureanu, Nicu Ungureanu, Mihai BanicaThe analysis of the sieves vibrations in the case of screening civil engineering construction bulk materials is usual made by using some differential equations depending on parameters related to different material and sieves characteristics. One of those parameters is the throwing coefficient -c- that is the ratio between the force capable to throw up the particle from the sieve surface, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLife Long Learning: Seniors in Second Life ContinuumC. D. Seals, W. Moses, J. Nyagwencha et al.Senior citizens represented the fastest growing demographic worldwide. As indicated in the Year 2000 US Census, there were 35 million people 65 or older in the US and by 2030, it was estimated that there were about 70 million older adults in the US alone. With the older population growing rapidly and being increasingly exposed to computers and technology, it … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Study of Stability Testing Approaches of Two-Dimensional Recursive Digital FiltersK. R. Santhi, M. Ponnavaikko, N. GangatharanThere are many problems in science and engineering whose solution is applied in the design of Multi-Dimensional (MD) digital filters. Digital filtering finds an important position in the field of digital signal and image processing. Recently there had been a great deal of interest in the design and stability analysis of Two-Dimensional (2-D) recursive digital filters. The design techniques for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligent Estimation of Compressive Strength of the Pavement Layers Stabilized by the Combination of Bitumen Emulsion and CementMehrdad Aryafar, Abdoul R. Ghotbi, Mehdi Aryafar, Amin AvaeiThe Application of the different types of additive materials such as lime, cement bitumen and the combination of them are considered as a main issue by the relating experts. In order to promote the bearing capacity of road, these materials, individually, or with the attendance of other materials add to sub base layers. During the recent years, road builders have … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,082 accessesView PDFCite

AbasThis review study summarized the Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) as new analytical method. The advantage and disadvantage of CO2 (SC-CO2 )as well as special applications of SFE in food processing such as removal of fat from food, enrichment of vitamin E from natural sources, removal of alcohol from wine and beer, encapsulation of liquids for engineering solid products and extraction … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 10,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecured Requirement Specification Framework (SRSF)R.A. Khan, K. MustafaGenerally, software engineers are poorly trained to elicit, analyze and specify security requirements, often confusing them with the architectural security mechanisms that are traditionally used to fulfill them. One of the most ignored parts of a security-enhanced software development lifecycle is the security requirements engineering process. Security should begin at the requirements level and must cover both overt functional security … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTraveling Salesman Approach for Solving Petrol Distribution Using Simulated AnnealingZuhaimy Ismail, Wan Rohaizad Wan IbrahimThis research presents an attempt to solve a logistic company's problem of delivering petrol to petrol station in the state of Johor. This delivery system is formulated as a travelling salesman problem (TSP). TSP involves finding an optimal route for visiting stations and returning to point of origin, where the inter-station distance is symmetric and known. This real world application … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementing a Large Data Bus VLIW MicroprocessorWeng Fook Lee, Ali Yeon Md ShakaffMicroprocessors have grown tremendously in its computing and data crunching capability since the early days of the invention of a microprocessor. Today, most microprocessors in the market are at 32 bits, while the latest microprocessors from IBM, Intel and AMD are at 64 bits. To further grow the computational capability of a microprocessor, there are two possible paths. One method … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInput-Output Feedback Linearization Cascade Controller Using Genetic Algorithm for Rotary Inverted Pendulum SystemIraj Hassanzadeh, Saleh Mobayen, Abbas HarifiThe Rotary Inverted Pendulum (RIP) system is a significant classical problem of control engineering which has been investigated in the past decades. This study presents an optimum Input- Output Feedback Linearization (IOFL) cascade controller utilized Genetic Algorithm (GA). Due to the non-minimum phase behavior of the system, IOFL controller leads to unstable internal dynamics. Therefore a cascade structure is proposed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
