Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCognitively Inspired Algorithm for Imprecise NavigationMelissa Shahrom, Zalilah Abd AzizThis paper presents an algorithm, namely the private navigation algorithm. The aim of this algorithm is to bridge the gap between high quality navigation services and low quality of location information or imprecise data. Generally, the imprecision is due to the poor positioning technology and the algorithms use to protect location privacy. The benefits of the algorithm are at least … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 14 Jul 2016 · 7,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn-silico Rational Protein Engineering and Design Approach to Improve Thermostability of a Haloalkane Dehalogenase EnzymeRaghunath Satpathy, V. Badireenath Konkimalla, Jagnyeswar RathaThermostability of enzymes is a major prerequisite for use in industrial enzymology. There are as such no simple general principles for achieving thermostability in case of enzymes as many factors are required to fulfil for different enzymes. The present study describes computational methods to design thermostable haloalkane dehalogenase enzyme using the crystal structure available Protein Data Bank (PDB ID: 1EDE). … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Oct 2015 · 8,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntiphrasis-Based Comparative Constructional Idioms in SpanishCarmen Mellado BlancoThe aim of this study is to show the constructional character of the antiphrasis-based comparative structures in Spanish [SUBJ[anaph] VTENER de S1 como/lo que yo de S2] and [SUBJ[anaph] V[COGN] de S1 como/lo que yo de S2], respectively with the referential meaning 'not to be S1' and 'to not know/understand absolutely anything about S1' and the pragmatic meaning disagreement/criticism. These … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 14 Aug 2015 · 8,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeophysical and Geological Studies of the Spread and Industrial Quality of Okurike Barite DepositAnthony E. Akpan, Ebong D. Ebong, Stephen E. Ekwok, Sackey JosephInvestors have been avoiding the Okurike Barite due to paucity of information on its economic worth in spite of the high demand for barites by the local industries. This study was embarked upon to determine the spread and industrial quality of the barite deposit in order to bridge the information gap. The Okurike Barite mineralised site was investigated using geophysical … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 22 Dec 2014 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractON THE DETECTION OF OPEN AND SHORT FAULT IN SWITCHED RELUCTANCE MOTOR WITH CLASSIFICATIONV. S. Chandrika, A. Ebenezer JeyakumarSwitched reluctance motors are tremendously increasing in usage. Monitoring the motor performance online is essential, in order to maintain the health of the motor as well as for a continual application process carried out by the SRM. Though certain fault detection methods are available based on comparator circuits, those methods are inefficient, because they need human attention to identify the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 23 Jan 2014 · 6,646 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ROLE OF WOMEN IN THE OIL INDUSTRYCharles GyanThis study was conducted to ascertain the contribution of women in the oil industry. It also looked at the opportunities available and the barriers that prevent women from attaining higher heights in the oil industry. Findings from the study show several factors (institutional, cultural, social and personal) that prevent women from being employed in the oil industry. The study has … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2013 · 7,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation Analysis on Proportional Integral and Derivative Control of Closed Loop DC Motor Drive with Bipolar Voltage SwitchingP. Karpagavalli, A. Ebenezer JeyakumarThis study presents the performance of a new four quadrant single phase DC drive closed loop system controlled by proportional integral and derivative controller with Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) full bridge DC-DC converter using bipolar voltage switching. The proposed method is found to be more efficient in improving the step response characteristics such as reducing the settling time, rise time, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 29 Jun 2013 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Client Internal Capability to Monitor Public-Private Partnerships Projects: A ReviewNoor Amila Wan Abdullah Zawawi, Arazi Idrus, Abdullahi Ahmed Umar, Mohd Faris KhamidiPublic-Private Partnerships (PPP) or Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) are increasingly becoming very popular with governments across the globe for the provision of public infrastructure and services. When contracted, the public sector client believing the private sector will act in accordance with ‘bounded rationality’, ignores the constant monitoring and review process which is an integral part of any project. However, the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 12 Feb 2013 · 7,893 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of Closed Loop LCL-T Resonant DC-to-DC Converter Using Low Cost Embedded ControllerM. Annamalai, M. Vijaya KumarThe aim of this study is to simulate and implement open loop and closed loop controlled DC-DC converter for stand-alone wind energy system. Wind turbines, however, are not always very efficient in the wind speeds that are most common to a region. Typically, wind energy systems are designed to be highly efficient in high wind speed and have a cut-off … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 6 Feb 2013 · 7,592 accessesView PDFCite
