Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Air Pollution on Ozone Layer Thickness in Troposphere over the State of KuwaitH. O. Al Jeran, A. R. KhanTroposphere ozone layer acts as a shield against all ultraviolet radiation approaching the planet Earth through absorption. It was noticed in mid 80s that ozone layer has thinned on the poles of the planet due to release of man-made substances commonly known as Ozone Depleting Substances, (ODS) into its atmosphere. The consequences of this change are adverse as the harmful … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 19,492 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHot Machining of Hardened Steels with Coated Carbide InsertsM. A. Lajis, A. K.M.N. Amin, A. N.M. Karim et al.Problem statement: The benefits of easier manufacture of hardened steel components can be substantial in terms of reduced machining costs and lead times compared to the traditional route involving machining of the annealed state followed by heat treatment, grinding/EDM and manual finishing. But machinability of hard material through conventional machining is hindered due to excessive wear of the cutting tools … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Performance of Uncoated Tungsten Carbide Insert in End Milling Titanium Alloy Ti-6Al 4V through Work Piece PreheatingL. Turnad Ginta, Mohd Amri Lajis, A.K.M. Nurul AminProblem statement: Titanium alloys have been used widely in the aerospace, chemical and petroleum industry because of their high specific strength, fracture resistance and superior resistance to corrosion. Titanium alloys have a very high strength-to-weight ratio making them very suitable for aircraft engines and airframe manufacture. Approach: The use of titanium alloys as engine component materials is due to their … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Numerical Estimation of Thermal Contact Resistance in Contacting SurfacesM.H. Shojaefard, K. GoudarziFor some manufacturing processes, the heat transfer between the components, the tools and the environment has an effect on tool-life and the accuracy of the formed component. Consequently, the measurement of Thermal Contact Resistance (TCR) is of increasing interest to researchers and industrial engineers participating in the manufacture of high-precision components. A new transient method and measurement apparatus are used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,454 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDensification Behaviour of a Red Firing Tunisian Triassic ClayHajer Baccour, Mounir Medhioub, Fakher Jamoussi, Taher. MhiriInvestigations were undertaken to assess the thermal modification in clay products from Triassic sedimentary deposits. This study deals with the mineralogical, physico-chemical, thermal analysis and faience making attributes of representative Triassic clay in the south-Eastern Tunisia. The data collected from these techniques show that illite and kaolinite are the major clay phases. The accessory minerals detected in powdered rock are; … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,111 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Perfluorooctanoic Acid Release from Commercial Coated Cooking Pans by Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass SpectrometryMonica Bononi, Fernando TateoSalts of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) can be used in the manufacture of fluoropolymers employed for coating pans; moreover, PFOA can be formed as a byproduct of thermolysis of the aforesaid fluoropolymers. This study was carried out to evaluate PFOA migration into food cooked in fluoropolymer-coated pans. The pans were purchased from a local retailer and subjected to cooking conditions. Used … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasured Test-Driven Development: Using Measures to Monitor and Control the Unit DevelopmentY. Dubinsky, O. HazzanWe analyze Test Driven Development (TDD) from cognitive and social perspectives. Based on our analysis, we suggest a technique for controlling and monitoring the TDD process by examining measures that relate to the size and complexity of both code and tests. We call this approach Measured TDD. The motivation for TDD arose from practitioners’ tendency to rush into code production, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSingle-Electron Transistor (SET) Process and Device Simulation Using SYSNOPSYS TCAD ToolsUda Hashim, Amiza RasmiSimulation of semiconductor device fabrication and operation is important to the design and manufacture of integrated circuits because it provides insights into complex phenomena that cannot obtained through experimentation or simple analytic models. Process and device simulation is commonly using for the design of new very large scale integration (VLSI) devices and processes. Simulation programs serves as exploratory tools in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 7,420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction, Yield and Derivatives of Volatile Oils from Eastern Redcedar (Juniperus Virginiana L.)Elif Semen, Salim HizirogluEastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana L.) is one of the most widely distributed indigenous conifers in southern states including Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas. Eastern redcedar is also an important source of the volatile oils. This specie adversely influences the environment resulting in degrading grassland, displacement of native plant population and increasing wildlife hazard. Range-grown eastern redcedar has a poor quality. However, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,760 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical and Biological Warfare: Should Rapid Detection Techniques Be Researched To Dissuade Usage? A ReviewMark R. Hurst, Ebtisam WilkinsChemistry, microbiology and genetic engineering have opened new doorways for the human race to propel itself to a better future. However, there is a darker side to Bioengineering. One element of this is the manufacture and proliferation of biological and chemical weapons. It is clearly in the interest of humankind to prevent the future use of such weapons of mass … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,865 accessesView PDFCite
