Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSoil-moisture Retention Characteristics of Earth Materials in the Weathering Profile over a Porphyritic Biotite GraniteJohn Kuna RajProblem statement: Three broad morphological zones and several sub-zones were differentiated within the weathering profile based on variations in earth materials and the degree of preservation of original bedrock minerals, textures and structures. Approach: The topmost Zone I (Grade 6) is some 12 m thick and comprises completely weathered bedrock materials (mainly a stiff, clayey sand) with indistinct relict bedrock … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,474 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCould Geometry Demystify Patterns of Earth Quakes and Aftershocks? An Answer is YesRamalingam ShanmugamIn this article, a pioneering (geometric) approach based on a new what is named here Glued Bivariate Poisson (GBP) distribution is constructed to demystify the 21st century incidences of earthquakes and their aftershocks. A warning risk index for an earthquake or an aftershock to occur is formulated and computed for each of the thirteen major tectonic plates. This article reports … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2016 · 7,658 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimized Earthquake Evacuation Routes Using Dijkstra's Algorithm and WinQSBSandra Huarcaya Gonzales, Hugo Vega-Huerta, Gisella Luisa Elena Maquen-Niño et al.This research analyzes and generates optimal evacuation routes in the Barranco district during earthquake scenarios using the Dijkstra algorithm implemented through WinQSB. A preliminary review was conducted to establish key concepts related to earthquake dynamics, evacuation route planning, and the application of Dijkstra’s algorithm. Given its high seismic exposure and the prevalence of aging infrastructure, Barranco is considered highly vulnerable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 9 Dec 2025 · 2,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEfficacy of Feeding Earthworm Meal-Based Diet on Feed Intake, Weight Gain, and Apparent Digestibility Coefficient of Red Sokoto GoatMoshood Adewale Belewu et al.Feed which contributes about 70-80% of the cost of feeding is one of the major problems of livestock production. Feeding nutritious feed to animals is vital for the vigor and wellbeing of livestock and human being and the nutrient it contains assist animal to grow, develop and reproduce. Hence, this study examined the impact of Earthworm Meal (EWM)-based diets on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 22 Mar 2025 · 4,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePre-Reinforcement Sprinkle FRP for Reinforced-Concrete Beams against Earthquakes, FRP: Consumption in Civil EngineeringMoein Zargar, Hossein Gholami, Hossein Norouzi et al.Nowadays, the reinforcement is used by green concrete, coated steel sheet, reinforcement, fiber reinforced such as carbon, aramid, and glass as earthquake reinforcement methods for concrete structures. regard the reinforcing structures and buildings against earthquake forces in the future, only simple methods for lowering prices should not be considered and the earthquake behaviors should be completely transparent. In this article, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 26 Jun 2019 · 7,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigating the Effect of Amount of Damage in Columns on Possible Occurrence of Collapsing in Flexural Frames under EarthquakeReza Salehi, Abbas Akbarpour Nikghalb RashtiConsidering the expansion of the field of study among the structural researchers regarding the structure behavior under different conditions, it would be a new research topic to assess structure behavior before earthquake, supposedly with preliminary deficiency or preliminary damage in elements. Man-made threats including gas cylinder explosion, intentional sabotage, or vehicle collision with the main elements of the building like … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 22 May 2018 · 8,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEnhancing Bioconversion Efficiency of the Earthworm Eudrilus Eugeniae (Kingberg) by Fortifying the Filtermud Vermibed using an Organic NutrientK. Vasanthi, K. Chairman, J. Savarimuthu Michael et al.Problem statement: Rapid urbanization and population growth are largely responsible for very high increasing rate of solid waste in the urban areas, its proper management and recycling is major problems of Municipal Corporation. Conversion of industrial wastes in to beneficial vermicompost not only solves solid waste accumulation but also yield highly nutritive organic manure. Approach: Enhancing the efficiency of earthworm … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2011 · 8,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePerformance of IBS Precast Concrete Beam-Column Connections Under Earthquake Effects: A Literature ReviewPatrick Tiong Liq Yee, Azlan Bin Adnan, Abdul Karim Mirasa, Ahmad Baharuddin Abdul RahmanProblem statement: Despite demonstrating rather much benefits comparing to the conventional cast-in-place construction, the acceptance level of precast concrete building is still reportedly low in Malaysia. The implication imposed by stricter seismic design provisions would only worsen the matter. Approach: The main objective of this study was to identify the most appropriate type of beam-column connections to be introduced to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 17,566 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImpact of Earthquake Demolition Debris on the Quality of GroundwaterM. S. Benmenni, K. BenrachediProblem statement: Debris from construction or demolition/deconstruction processes have no significant impact on the environment as they are res-usable and inert. This has been also long admitted for solid waste generated by the demolition of damaged cities following violent earthquakes. Approach: This study is a contribution to the assessment of actual impact on the quality of groundwater of buried demolition … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReliability-Based Earthquake Design of Jacket-Type Offshore Platforms Considering Pile-Soil-Structure InteractionBehrouz Asgarian, Hossein AgheshluiThere are plenty of uncertainties in environmental condition of ocean and also in platform element capacities. Reliability-based method could consider these uncertainties. A reliability-based earthquake design method was used to determine the earthquake LRFD parameters for two conventional, steel, pile-supported (template-type) offshore platforms located in the Persian Gulf. The pile-soil-structure interaction, the buckling and postbuckling behavior of the braces were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,513 accessesView PDFCite
