Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTEEL FIBER CURVATURE IN CONCRETE COMPOSITES: MODULUS PREDICTIONS USING EFFECTIVE STEEL FIBER PROPERTIESAbdellatif SelmiResults in the literature demonstrate that substantial improvements in the mechanical behavior of concrete have been attained through the addition of steel fibers as a reinforcing phase. We have developed a model combining finite element results and micromechanical methods to determine the effective reinforcing modu-lus of hook-ended steel fibers. This effective reinforcing modulus is then used within a multiphase micro-mechanics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Dec 2013 · 7,058 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost-Effective Wire-Harness Model by Using Polymer Optical FiberMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Farshad Nasimi KhamenehIn the past decade automotive industries faced the exponential increase of in-vehicle electronic devices. The hydraulic systems are replacing with sophisticate electronic systems. Market demands for exploiting new in-vehicle technologies such as multimedia systems, internet access, GPS, Mobile communication, internal private network; engine, body and power train intelligent control and monitoring systems are increasing daily. These new needs make the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 25 Jun 2013 · 7,025 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Laser Therapy in Inflamed Tissue by Medications Based on Iodoform Laser Therapy in Inflamed TissuePablicia Juliana Santos Tomaz, Michelle de Paula Farias, Marta Rabello Piva et al.This study aimed to evaluate the inflammatory response of the subcutaneous tissue of twenty rats when the use of iodoform with different drugs or not associated with laser photobiomodulation. In the dorsum of rats were introduced into tubes containing: Iodoform and calcium hydroxide (Ca (OH)2); Iodoform and Ca(OH)2, associated with Laser; Iodoform and Otosporin; Iodoform and Otosporin, associated with Laser. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2013 · 6,949 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlexural and Tensile Characteristics of Micro Fiber-Reinforced Very High Strength Concrete Thin PanelsTaher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie Fini, Monique LumpkinThe purpose of this research was to experimentally characterize the flexural and tensile characteristics of fiber-reinforced Very High-Strength Concrete (VHSC) panels. The panels were made with a unique mix of cementitous materials achieving compressive strength of 26,000 psi (180 MPa) or greater. VHSC panels were reinforced with polypropylene fibers of 1 inch (25.4 mm) in length and Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2012 · 8,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influences of Connectors and Adaptors to Fiber-To-The-Home Network PerformanceMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Mastang, Kasmiran JumariProblem statement: The reliability of the entire communications network was dependent on the reliability of each single element. Connector was important devices that can affect the performance of the fiber communication. There were a large number of issues that affect the performance of fiber optic connectors in today’s networks. These factors were increasingly as data rates, the number of wavelengths … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 9 Dec 2011 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis on 16-Channels Wavelength Division Multiplexing in Free Space Optical Transmission under Tropical Regions EnvironmentSalasiah Hitam, Siti Norziela Suhaimi, Ahmad Shukri Mohd Noor et al.Problem statement: Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing (WDM) is a promising technique for meeting the growing demand for increased bandwidth and various types of services in the optical access network. For wide area or metropolitan networks, fibers are deployed to provide huge bandwidth. In access networks, the fiber-to-the-home will partially solve the last mile problem. However, some environmentally sensitive area such as housing areas, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2011 · 10,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Transport Properties of Tyre Fiber Modified ConcreteG. Senthil Kumaran, M. Lakshmipathy, Nurdin MushuleProblem statement: Nowadays, the use of waste tyre in concrete has become technically feasible and the tyre mixed concrete is light weight and called as rubberized concrete. Still the research is going on to explore basic engineering properties such as transport properties viz, acid absorption test, water absorption tests, impact resistance, modulus of elasticity, dynamic modulus and so on. In … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2011 · 7,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCritical Retrospect on Conventional and Luminescent Solar Concentration DevicesHamzah Abdul-Rahman, Chen WangProblem statement: Conventional solar concentrators are only sensitive for the beam radiation and they function poorly in overcast sky conditions. Even under a clear sky condition, trackers are always needed for conventional solar concentrators. Static concentrators always come with a poor concentration rate without a tracker and the light concentrated by normal Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSC) could not be transported … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 6,930 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Palm Fiber on the Mechanical Properties of Lightweight Concrete Crushed BrickMahyuddin Ramli, Eethar Thanoon DawoodProblem statement: Researches has been conducted worldwide on a large number of natural or artificial lightweight aggregates. In spite of many of the researches of using natural fibers show considerable promise, the use of natural fibers to improve the properties of lightweight concrete still required to be a subject of further research and investigation. Approach: This experimental investigation was carried … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSilk-Cloth Weaving Development of the Mon-Khmer Ethnic Group in Lower-IsanWira Phansuwan, Suoneth Photisan, Anongrit KangrangProblem statement: Silk cloth weaving culture of the Mon-Khmer ethnic group in Lower-Isan has a specific identity which should be handed down to future generation.
