Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsImproving Organizational Citizenship Behavior through Spirituality and Work EngagementAminah Ahmad, Zoharah OmarThe focus of previous studies on predictors of organizational citizenship behavior has been on individual, organizational and task characteristics as well as leadership behaviors. Despite the greater focus of previous studies on individual characteristics, little is known about the potential effect of spirituality on organizational citizenship behavior. Using the work engagement model and results from previous empirical studies, a framework … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 7 May 2015 · 7,139 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Numerical Approach for Evaluating the Convergence-Confinement Curve of a Rock Tunnel Considering Hoek-Brown Strength CriterionPierpaolo OresteThe convergence-confinement method is frequently used for the analysis of the behavior of a tunnel and to define the support structures necessary to guarantee its stability. The reasons why it is used extensively, at least in the preliminary study phases of a tunnel are: The fundamental parameters of the problem (the diameter and depth of the tunnel, as well as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 14 Jan 2015 · 6,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of the Tunnel Face Stability through a Ground Stress Analysis with a Hemispherical Geometry ApproximationPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the stability of the excavation face is an important aspect in the design of a tunnel. When it is not possible to ensure excavation face stability in natural conditions, it is in fact necessary to intervene with remarkably costly reinforcement operations. The analysis of the stability conditions of an excavation face can be conducted, with a certain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 8 Jan 2015 · 6,724 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Determination of the Tunnel Structure Loads Through the Analysis of the Interaction between the Void and the Support Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the load acting on a tunnel support is of fundamental importance for the correct dimensioning of the structure when analytical calculation methods are used. The load acting on the support depends on various factors and for this reason its evaluation can appear somewhat complex. One way of evaluating the load acting on a support is to use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsApproaches to Learning in First Year University PhysicsRachel Wilson, Steve Georgakis, Manjula SharmaProblem statement: In recent decades, discipline specific ways of thinking and knowing have gained increased recognition in understanding learning. However, there has been little empirical research examining student approaches to learning within specific disciplines or, even more specifically, within different streams of study or in response to different curriculum within a discipline. Approach: The aim of this study was to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2012 · 9,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Convergence-Confinement Method: Roles and Limits in Modern Geomechanical Tunnel DesignPierpaolo OresteThe convergence-confinement method, based on the analysis of the stress and strain state that develops in the rock around a circular tunnel, has been presented in this study with the two analytical solutions that have been most frequently used in recent years. Problem statement: Thanks to the increased power of electronic processors and the spread of numerical methods, the role … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 10,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRecreational Viagra Use and Sexual Risk among Drug Abusing MenDennis G. Fisher, Robert Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg et al.Until recently, the Viagra connection to HIV was anchored in older adults. However, CDC investigation showed stability in 50+ HIV diagnoses on the heels of upward trends in risk indicators among men who have sex with men (MSM) and substance abusing populations. Signs have increasingly pointed to recreational drug use among younger populations, to which Viagra is being added to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 10,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA FEASIBILITY STUDY: EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUES FOR DEPRESSION IN AUSTRALIAN ADULTSPeta Stapleton, Sharon Devine, Hannah Chatwin et al.The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using Clinical Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) to treat Major Depressive Disorder in an adult population by way of a therapeutic group setting. Adults were assigned to EFT group treatment for a period of eight weeks. Diagnostic assessment was completed immediately pre and post treatment using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 12 Jul 2014 · 12,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative SCAPS-1D Study of Lead-Free CsSnCl₃-Based Perovskite SCs Employing Different ETLsRony Tota, Shak Mahmudul Hasan, Md. Morsalin et al.Cesium tin chloride (CsSnCl3) has drawn considerable interest as a non-toxic absorber candidate for next-generation photovoltaic devices, offering an attractive combination of affordability, thermal robustness, and competitive conversion performance suitable for clean-energy deployment. In the present work, the photovoltaic behaviour of CsSnCl₃-based SCs was numerically examined using the SCAPS-1D software. Three distinct device stacks were constructed by varying the ETL, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 22 May 2026 · 1,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRationalizing Resource Utilization in Cloud Computing Using Coalition Formation StrategyHend Fakhri Noureldin, Mai FadelEven though the contribution of cloud computing towards the Sustainable Development (SD) of communities is still under research investigation, cloud computing has become an integral part of many ICT solutions that shape our daily lives. Thus, some researchers recommend taking considerable actions to point cloud computing development towards supporting SD. In this research, an approach to designing energy efficient cloud … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 6 · 15 Jun 2021 · 6,978 accessesView PDFCite
