Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimations of Neutrino and Graviton Masses by a Phenomenological Mass Relation for Stable ParticlesDimitar T. ValevThe ratio between the proton and electron masses was shown to be close to the ratio between the shortest lifetimes of particles, decaying by the electromagnetic and strong interactions. The inherent property of each fundamental interaction is defined, namely the Minimal Lifetime of the Interaction (MLTI). The rest mass of the Lightest Free Massive Stable Particle (LFMSP), acted upon by … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 25 Aug 2015 · 8,971 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractRetrofitting the Electric Lighting and Daylighting Systems to Reduce Energy Use in Buildings: A Literature ReviewMarie-Claude Dubois, Fabio Bisegna, Niko Gentile et al.This paper presents a literature review about energy-efficient retrofit of electric lighting and daylighting systems in buildings. The review, which covers around 160 research articles, addresses the following themes: (1) retrofitting electric lighting in buildings, (2) electric lighting energy use and saving potential and (3) lighting retrofit strategies. The retrofit strategies covered in the review are: replacement of lamp, ballast … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Aug 2015 · 14,598 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Land Cover on Streamflow Variability in a Small Iowa Watershed: Assessing Future VulnerabilitiesKeith Schilling, Matthew Streeter, Kasey Hutchinson et al.Agricultural expansion and urbanization, coupled with climate change represent major threats to the sustainability of river ecosystems and infrastructure. In this study, we evaluated how subbasins with different dominant land covers within the 27.5 km2 Clear Creek, IA watershed affect key hydrologic indicators. Hydrologic output from two stream gages and a calibrated Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model were used … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 6 Jul 2015 · 8,374 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSOUND AND VIBRATION CONSIDERATIONS OF SOME MATERIALS FOR AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERING APPLICATIONSMohammad Al-Zubi, Emmanuel Ayorinde, Nabeel Alshabatat et al.Vibration and noise amelioration in and across several components and modules of the automotive, such as the panels, doors, engine covers, seats and others, is extremely important. NVH performance has been recognized as a critical factor in the purchase decisions of many buyers. This study examines the vibro-acoustic characteristics of some monolithic and composite materials and some generally periodic material … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 2 Dec 2014 · 6,491 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSEDIMENT CORE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS OF KAW LAKEDejene Alemayehu, Jason McAlister, William FoxThe Kaw Nation and Black land Research Center in July 2012 conducted a sediment core sampling from Kaw Lake. Kaw Lake is a reservoir constructed in 1976 by the Army Corps of Engineers for the purpose of water supply and recreation. It is located 11 miles east of Ponca City, Kay County, Oklahoma. This reservoir covers approximately 17,040 acres (69 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOMPARATIVE STUDY OF DIFFERENT KALMAN FILTER IMPLEMENTATIONS IN POWER SYSTEM STABILITYH. H. Goh, C. W. Tai, Q. S. Chua et al.Voltage stability and voltage collapse issues have in recent years begun to constitute an unpleasant warning to the operational security of power systems. Many techniques have been investigated in order to predict the point of voltage collapse. However, there are still several restrictions due to the insufficiency of current system state information. Accompanied by the commencement of the Phasor Measurement … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 29 May 2014 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite

Issues of prison inmate education are of contemporary relevance over the past 30 years since criminal-executive system has undergone a number of changes due to changes and amendments to criminal laws and rules of proceedings, including those affected by international standards, European Prison Rules ensuring the rights … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 19 Apr 2014 · 6,770 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractREDUCING CALL BLOCKING PROBABILITY IN HYBRID MULTICAST WAVELENGTH DIVISION MULTIPLEXING NETWORKS USING WEIGHTED ROUTING AND WAVELENGTH ASSIGNMENT ALGORITHMD. V. Pradeep Sankar, K. MuneeswaranIn the proposed work, the focus is on increasing the available wavelength in the all-optical networks, for which the Routing and Wavelength Assignment plays a vital role. In the earlier reported work, the wavelengths were assigned to the links which covers a set of destinations but not all the intended destinations. However this proposed work, attempts were made to create … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 13 Nov 2013 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence of Abomasal Nematodes in Sheep Slaughtered at Baneh TownGaredaghi Yagoob, Hashemzadefarhang Hossein, Fattahi AssoLivestock production covers up to 40% of the gross value of agricultural production globally. Gastrointestinal nematodes of small ruminants are one of the major causes of productivity loss. This study was carried out to determine the correlation between the prevalence, seasonal incidence and geographical distribution of abomasal worm infection of native sheep in Baneh Town of Iran, suitable for animal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 9 Sep 2013 · 7,339 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract3D Numerical Study on Laminar Forced Convection in V-Baffled Square ChannelAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiThe article presents a mathematical study of fully developed periodic laminar flow visualization and heat transfer characteristics in an isothermal wall square-channel fitted with V-shaped baffles on one wall.
