Oommen, Enriqe LabadieZonisamide (ZNS) is a new antiepileptic drug initially introduced in Europe, Japan and the United States (US) in the late 1980’s and was the first such drug to be clinically tested in the US, since the marketing of valproic acid in 1978. Reports of nephrolithiasis by European and US investigators resulted in the trials being terminated in the US during … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Development of a Photovoltaic Power System for Tropical Greenhouse CoolingFaisal Mohammed Seif Al-Shamiry, Desa Ahmad, Abdul Rashid Mohamed Sharif et al.Renewable energy sources like photovoltaic (PV) panels are used today in many applications. Natural ventilation in tropical greenhouse is common method for ventilation, which gives higher inside temperatures compared to the outside temperatures. In addition, this type of ventilation is not enough to reduce high temperature inside the structure in low land areas. Thus the requirement of cooling is increased. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,216 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeedup of Particle Transport Problems with a Beowulf ClusterZhongxiang Zhao, G. Ivan MaldonadoThe MCNP code is a general Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport program that is widely used in health physics, medical physics and nuclear engineering for problems involving neutron, photon and electron transport[1]. However, due to the stochastic nature of the algorithms employed to solve the Boltzmann transport equation, MCNP generally exhibits a slow rate of convergence. In fact, engineers and scientists … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Tropospheric Scintillation Intensity on Earth to Space in MalaysiaMandeep Singh Jit Singh, Syed Idris Syed Hassan, Mohd Fadzil Ain et al.This paper presents the results of a study on tropospheric scintillation on satellite link that has been performed at University Sains Malaysia (USM) to obtain statistics of scintillation from the 12.255 GHz Superbird C satellite with an elevation angle of 40.10. The objective of this analysis was to determine whether the long-term scintillation follows the log normal or gamma distribution. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,268 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Transformation-oriented Methodology to Knowledge-based Conceptual Data Warehouse DesignOpim S. Sitompul, Shahrul A. NoahApplications of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in the form of knowledge-based systems within the context of database design have been extensively researched particularly to provide support within the conceptual design phase.
