Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractZero Geometry, Zero Space Time, The Seeds of The Final TheoryKambiz-AfrasiabiProblem statement: Lack of understanding And scientific formulation of zero geometry and zero space-time and the truth about initiation conditions would continue to keep us all in dark and we would continue to create more theories defining our observations about the known universe which could Indeed be part of our illusionary perception of reality And as long as they continue … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEntropyomics as the Blueprint of the Logic of Normal Cell Division and MalignancyKambiz AfrasiabiProblem statement: In this article I propose a blueprint based on one of the most fundamental laws governing the known universe, namely the second law of thermodynamics and I present support for its central role in initiation of mitosis and relationship of the other sub cellular compartments and their organization. Approach: Life is considered to be the most sophisticated antientropy … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2011 · 10,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombined Partial Oxidation and Carbon Dioxide Reforming Process: A Thermodynamic StudySompop JarungthammachoteProblem statement: CO2 reforming is one of the methods to utilize a greenhouse gas to produce syngas, an important feed for methanol and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. However, CO2 reforming is strong endothermic reaction requiring large amount of supplied energy. Partial oxidation, an exothermic reaction, is combined with CO2 reforming to serve the energy requirement. Thus, the optimum ranges of O2 and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLink Stability and Node Energy Conscious Local Route-Repair Scheme for Mobile Ad Hoc NetworksAnuradha Banerjee, Paramartha DuttaProblem statement: A mobile ad hoc network is a self-configuring network of mobile nodes connected by wireless links. As the nodes are free to move randomly, topology of the network may change rapidly and unpredictably. As a result, intermediate nodes in the communication routes tend to lose connection with each other during the communication process. In order to repair a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 6,862 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethanol-Based Transesterification Optimization of Waste Used Cooking Oil over Potassium Hydroxide CatalystCholada Komintarachat, Sathaporn ChuepengProblem statement: Waste used Cooking Oil (WCO) harmfully affected to environment and human’s health can be a feedstock for producing biodiesel. Approach: The conversion of Fatty Acid and Free Fatty Acid (FFA) of WCO with 15.0% w/w FFA content to biodiesel was studied through transesterification reactions. This work investigated the effects of alcohol and catalyst quantity, reaction time and temperature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantum Mechanical Calculation of the Optical Absorption of Silver and Gold Nanoparticles by Density Functional TheoryElham Gharibshahi, Elias SaionProblem statement: Metal nanoparticles confine the motion of conduction electrons and exhibit a strong optical absorption of electromagnetic radiation in the UV-vis-NIR region. The absorption is classically derived from the collective oscillations of free electrons in a metallic nanostructure as a consequence of incident electromagnetic radiation polarizing the particle optically embedded in a dielectric matrix. These oscillations, known as the … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 16,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOxidation of Exogenous Lactate by Lactate Dehydrogenase C in the Midpiece of Rat Epididymal Sperm is Essential for Motility and Oxidative ActivityHideaki Yamashiro, Masaaki Toyomizu, Akane Kadowaki et al.Problem statement: To identify the metabolic reaction-glycolysis or oxidative phosphorylation that is mainly involved in the production of energy required for rat sperm mobilization. Approach: Epididymal sperm were collected from Wistar rats and extended in lactate-containing or lactate-free raffinose-modified Krebs-Ringer Bicarbonate solution (mKRB)-egg yolk medium supplemented with 0, 1, 2, or 3 mM 2-Deoxy-D-Glucose (2 DG) and 1, 2, or … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultistage Development of Müller-Achenbach model for Shape Memory AlloySimin Ataollahi Oshkovr, Nik Abdullah Nik Mohamed, Che Husna Azhari et al.This research focused on the conceptual development of constitutive Müller-Achenbach model and proceeds to construct a model based on phase transition under changing temperature and load for variants of martensite in shape memory alloy CuAlNi (Copper-aluminum-nickel). Problem statement: Motivation of this research is rare information of a variant of martensite phase (M++) and prediction of the shape recovery of shape … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of the Flow Structure of A Thermal Plume Evolving in an Unlimited and in A Semi-Enclosed EnvironmentJamil Zinoubi, A. Ould Mohamed Mahmoud, Taoufik Naffouti et al.The basic objective of this study was to better knowledge the fine flow structure of thermal plume created by a heated disk, evolving in an unlimited and in a semi-enclosed environment. The flow visualization and the study of the temperature fluctuations spectrum show clearly a considerable change of the turbulent structure of the internal flow in comparison with the free … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,034 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOscillatory Dynamical Switching System of Bulk FerroelectricsM. N.A. Halif, S. Daud, Junaidah OsmanThis study gives a detailed account of calculation of the bulk ferroelectric (FE) oscillatory dynamical system switching to first and second-order phase transition, respectively. All the formalism is delineated in the framework of Landau free-energy expansion and Landau-Khalatnikov (LK) equation of motion where the effect of external energy may affray FE atoms similar to the spring damped oscillatory system.
