Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExperimental Investigation on Geomechanical Properties of Tropical Organic Soils and PeatBujang B.K. Huat, Afshin Asadi, Sina KazemianProblem statement: Organic soils and peat were believed to be geotechnically problematic due to their very high compressibility, very low shear strength and difficult accessibility. Although conventional soil mechanics theory could be applied to the soils, it was found that important anomalies existed which required special considerations. Correlations between geomechanical parameters for the soils were known to be important for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 10,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAn Adaptive Modulation Scaling Scheme for Quality of Services Ensurance in Wireless Sensor NetwoksYong Yuan, Zongkai Yang, Jianhua HeEnergy consumption has been a key concern of data gathering in wireless sensor networks. Previous research works show that modulation scaling is an efficient technique to reduce energy consumption. However, such technique will also impact on both packet delivery latency and packet loss, therefore, may result in adverse effects on the qualities of applications. In this study, the problem of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHEPATOTOXIC EFFECT OF ITRACONAZOLE IN EXPERIMENTAL RATSMohammed El-Hassan Abdelmaged KemeirItraconazole is a widely used antifungal drug. In situations such as managing patients with gastrointestinal basidiobolomycosis, third of which cases world-wide occur in the southwestern region of Saudi Arabia, prolonged treatment with this drug is required. Thus, this is study was designed to investigate the hepatotoxicity of long term administration of itraconazolein in Wistar rats. Two groups of rats were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2014 · 9,042 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExperimental and Theoretical Analysis of a Novel Flexible Membrane Tactile SensorGoldis Darb Emamieh, Ahmad Ameri, Siamak Najarian, Ali Tavakoli GolpayganiIn this study, we report the development of a new multi tactile sensor, capable of detecting 2D surface texture image, measuring contact-force, and identifying the difference between stiffness of sensed objects. The designed tactile sensor consists of a chamber and a membrane with a mesa structure. The detecting principle is a combination of membrane deflection and piezoresistance effects. A major … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,184 accessesView PDFCite
