Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Kinetic Correction Coefficient of Fluid Flow Using a Generic Multiple Orifice Physical Scale Model StructureEmmanuel M. AdigioProblem statement: Diesel particulate filters are fast becoming integral parts of diesel engines, light and heavy duty, due to their potential in the reduction of particulate matter from exhaust gases and their noise muffling property. Consequently, several researchers are developing mathematical models for the study of fluid flow through the filter substrate and in the aiding of filter systems design. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,553 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdolescent Internal Environmental Locus of Control Scale (AINELOC) Measurement ToolCarnell Colebrook-ClaudeThis study aims to validate the Adolescent Internal Environmental Locus of Control (AINELOC) scales (green consumer, activist, advocate and recycling attitude). The AINELOC was used to identify the association between internal locus of control and pro-environmental behaviors in adolescents. The study was conducted because of the lack of data in the literature about the subject matter and developed based on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2019 · 8,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpatial Analysis and Modeling the Nitrogen Flush after Rainfall Events at the Field Scale in SWATElizabeth Brooke Haney, Richard Lee Haney, Jeffrey George Arnold et al.Current nitrogen (N) models tend to neglect the contribution of the microbial population to the plant available N pool, resulting in an underestimation of yield and possible over or underestimation of N runoff from natural and agricultural landscapes. We used the measurement of microbial activity coupled with the measurement of their food source, water extractable nitrogen (N) and carbon (C), … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2016 · 7,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Prototype of a Small-Scale Solar Power Plant: dynamic Simulation and Thermoeconomic AnalysisAnnamaria Buonomano, Francesco Calise, Maria VicidominiThe paper presents an innovative prototype of a solar power plant, purposely designed for small-scale applications such as residential and/or small commercial buildings. The system consists of 10 kWe Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) plant and innovative solar thermal collectors. In particular, 235 m2 of flat-plate evacuated solar collectors are designed to heat diathermic oil up to 180°C. A variable volume … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2016 · 8,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLarge Scale Synthesis of ZnO Nanostructures of Different Morphologies through Solvent-free Mechanochemical Synthesis and their Application in Photocatalytic Dye DegradationRaúl Sánchez Zeferino, Jesús Alberto Ramos Ramón, Ma. Eunice de Anda Reyes et al.Well crystalline, near-stoichiometric zinc oxide nanostructures of different morphologies are fabricated in large scale, utilizing a simple, cost effective mechanochemical synthesis in absence of solvent. Effects of ionic and nonionic surfactants along with the concentration of hydrolyzing agent on the evolution of nanostructure morphology have been studied. It has been observed that while a cationic surfactant such as Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2016 · 8,932 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUSING COLUMN GENERATION TECHNIQUE TO ESTIMATE PROBABILITY STATISTICS IN TRANSITION MATRIX OF LARGE SCALE MARKOV CHAIN WITH LEAST ABSOLUTE DEVIATION CRITERIAWanida Lerspipatthananon, Peerayuth CharnsethikulThe Least Absolute Deviation (LAD) method is the one of many methods used to estimate transition probability matrix of Markov Chain. It can be formulated as a Linear Programming Problem (LP) and solved using its regular state of the art software. However, when the Markov Chain has a large number of states and historical state probabilities data, the corresponding LP … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2014 · 7,116 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHOUGHT FIELD THERAPY EFFICACY FOLLOWING LARGE SCALE TRAUMATIC EVENTSAnn L. DunnewoldThought Field Therapy Efficacy Following Large Scale Traumatic Events: Description of Four Studies Thought Field Therapy (TFT) has been shown to reduce symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress (PTS) with trauma survivors in four studies in Africa. In a 2006 preliminary study, orphaned Rwandan adolescents, who reported ongoing trauma symptoms since the 1994 genocide, were treated with TFT. A 2008 Randomized Controlled … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 12 Jul 2014 · 15,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePERFORMANCE OF TOPOLOGY AWARE RELIABLE ROUTING PROTOCOL FOR LARGE SCALE VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORKJayanthi Gokulakrishnan, V. Thulasi BaiA network which merges the usage of the public and the private networks and uses security software for the purpose of compressing, encrypting and masking the digital packets that are being transmitted in the network is called as Virtual Private Network (VPN). In VPN, the communication between the user ends is maintained such that it appears as if the source … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 23 Jun 2014 · 6,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEFFECT OF WITH/WITHOUT AGITATIONOF AGRICULTURAL WASTE ON BIOGAS PRODUCTION FROM ANAEROBIC CO-DIGESTION-A SMALL SCALENaphon Keanoi, KanokornHussaro, Sombat TeekasapThe growing worldwide concerns over environment, health and monetary aspects have triggered a search for efficient and economic renewable sources of energy production. Agricultural sector holds the potential for development of one of the major source of renewable energy such as biogas. In this study, CSTR-small scale fermentation (200 L stainless steel) was studied to observe the effect of stirring … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2014 · 7,526 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleField Scale Modeling to Estimate Phosphorus and Sediment Load Reductions Using a Newly Developed Graphical User Interface for Soil and Water Assessment ToolAaron R. Mittelstet, Erin R. Daly, Daniel E. Storm et al.Streams throughout the North Canadian River watershed in northwest Oklahoma, USA have elevated levels of nutrients and sediment. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to identify areas that likely contributed disproportionate amounts of Phosphorus (P) and sediment to Lake Overholser, the receiving reservoir at the watershed outlet. These sites were then targeted by the Oklahoma Conservation Commission (OCC) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 28 Dec 2012 · 6,470 accessesView PDFCite
