EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Signal Processing Techniques for Detection of Power Quality EventsAbhijith Augustine, Ruban Deva Prakash, Rajy Xavier, Mareeta Cheriyan ParasseryThe challenging process industry requires true power for its smooth functioning and here comes the importance of good power or power. The term Power Quality (PQ) aims at supplying true power to the process. The scope of the power quality increased with the introduction of newly designed sophisticated devices like computers and microcontrollers. The performances of these devices are extremely … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2016 · 8,493 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Cost Advantage of Sicilian Wine FarmsSalvatore Tudisca, Anna Maria Di Trapani, Filippo Sgroi, Riccardo TestaThis study presents the results of research carried out on a Sicilian wine farm in order to demonstrate the economic convenience of the mechanized harvest. After the determination of the minimum optimal farm size that justifies the introduction of grape harvester in the farm, it has been estimated production cost and the relative profitability of two wine grape cultivars (Chardonnay … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 18 Oct 2013 · 7,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate Change Adaptation in Acid Sulfate LandscapesChuxia LinOxidation of sulfide minerals produces sulfuric acid and consequently creates Acid Sulfate Landscapes (ASLs), which represent one of the most degraded types of land-surface environments. Although acid sulfate-producing weathering is a naturally occurring process, it is markedly facilitated by human intervention. Mining is by far the dominant anthropogenic cause for the creation of inland acid sulfate footprints while land reclamation … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 7 Jul 2012 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResearch in the Improvement of Wettability of Micro-Structure in Patterned ElectrodepositionLi Guangyang, Wang Hong, Yuan Yang et al.Problem statement: The high aspect-ratio electrodeposition was widely used in the manufacture of non-silicon MEMS devices. The wetting of high aspect-ratio micro-structure in electrolyte was important to the uniformity of micro-structure. Approach: In this study, to enhance the wettability of micro-structures in electrolyte, the effect of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) and O2 plasma surface modification were discussed. Contact Angles (CA) … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,275 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Modification of Polystyrene Beads by Ultraviolet/Ozone Treatment and its Effect on Gelatin CoatingA. N. Yusilawati, M. Maizirwan, M. S. Hamzah et al.Problem statement: Polystyrene failed to provide any reactive functionality of surface hydrophilicity that is capable of binding proteins. It is known that polystyrene must be chemically modified to make its surface amenable to covalent crosslinking with protein. Approach: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of UV/ozone treatment on gelatin coating. The surfaces of microsize polystyrene beads … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Article 27(3) (b) of TRIPs-the Content and Implications of the IP Protection on Plant VarietiesPratyush JhunjhunwalaProblem statement: Introduction of Intellectual Property Protection (IPP) to plant varieties has gone through some rough weather with objections being made not only with respect to their introduction but also with the type of protection to be accorded to the new varieties. Article 27(3)(b) of the TRIPs Agreement contains a lot of flexibilities as it allows WTO member states to … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,783 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEconomic Efficiency Analysis for Information Technology in Developing CountriesGhassan F. Issa, Shakir M. Hussain, Hussein Al-BahadiliProblem statement: The introduction of Information Technology (IT) to government institutions in developing countries bears a great deal of risk of failure. The lack of qualified personnel, lack of financial support and the lack of planning and proper justification are just few of the causes of projects failure. Study presented in this study focused on the justification issue of IT … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 30 Oct 2009 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate Change-An Unprecedented Challenge for Humankind Survival; Energy Exploitation from the Atmospheric Electrical CircuitGiovanni Pietro Gregori, Bruce Allen LeybourneA more detailed summary is given in the last part (1/4th) of the Introduction. An anomalous period is in progress, characterized by a very intense release of endogenous energy from the Earth. The cause is an ongoing heartbeat of the Earth’s electrocardiogram. Humankind’s history spans a much shorter duration. Hence, at present the humans are going to face an unprecedented … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 2 Nov 2021 · 6,450 accessesView PDFCite
