Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of the Geometrical Parameters of a Solar Bubble Pump for Absorption-Diffusion Cooling SystemsN. Dammak, B. Chaouachi, S. Gabsi, M. BourouisProblem statement: The objective of this study was to optimize the geometrical parameters of a bubble pump integrated in a solar flat plate collector. Approach: This solar bubble pump was part of an ammonia/water/helium (NH3/H2O/He) absorption-diffusion cooling system. Results: An empirical model was developed on the basis of momentum, mass, material equations and energy balances. The mathematical model was solved … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 8,371 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffects of Differently Processed Taro Mixed With Other Ingredients on Digestibility and Nitrogen Balance in Crossbred PigsPhiny Chiv, Saravuth Tum, Putheasath Sin et al.Leaves from forage crops and vegetables such as water spinach, sweetpotato, cassava, and especially taro, can be incorporated into pig diets aspartially replace commonly used protein sources including fish meal or/and soybeanmeal. However, their use remains limited among farmers and livestock producers.This study aimed to compare feed intake, determine apparent digestibilitycoefficients, and analyze nitrogen retention in pigs fed various forms … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 7 Jul 2026 · 1,355 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHeat Balance Analysis During the Production of Jadomycin CT. J. Burdock, A. H. Giffin, M.S. Brooks, A.E. GhalyJadomycins are novel antibiotics that exhibit biological activity against bacteria and yeast and also demonstrate cytotoxicity against cancer cells. Jadomycin C was successfully produced from 10 L of fermentation media in a 19 L bioreactor using Streptomyces venezuelae ISP5230 which was shocked with ethanol. The bioreactor temperature and pH were successfully maintained at 30°C and 7, respectively. The heat of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,710 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDevelopment of Curcumin Based Ophthalmic FormulationD. Anjana, K. Anitha Nair, N. Somashekara et al.Problem statement: Ophthalmic drug delivery system has been a major challenge due to the distinctive and unique anatomy of the eye. The use of phytochemicals for the application in ocular disease has not been investigated much, due to poor pharmacokinetics of phytochemical and hence poor therapeutic efficacy. Approach: Curcumin is one such phytochemical known for its medicinal properties, but its … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 24 Feb 2012 · 15,401 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStudy of the Permeability of Foam Conditioned Soils with Laboratory TestsLuca Borio, Daniele PeilaProblem statement: EPB tunneling requires that the excavated soil has a plastic and pulpy behavior to be able to apply a stabilizing pressure to the face, but it should also be impervious to counteract filtration forces that could develop ahead of the face. The evaluation of this parameter in granular soil, before and after conditioning, is therefore of key importance … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 8,459 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDynamic Kinematics of the Plan Balanced Chain at the Planar Module 3RRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuAnthropomorphic robots are, as I have already said, in most of the most widespread and widely used works worldwide today, due to their ability to adapt quickly to forced work, working without breaks or breaks 24 h a day, without unpaid leave without asking for food, water, air, or salary. Anthropomorphic robots are supple, elegant, easy to configure and adapted … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2018 · 6,940 accessesView PDF Cite
