Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCredibility of 3D Volume Computation Using GIS for Pit Excavation and Roadway ConstructionsRagab KhalilVolume estimation and earthworks calculation of borrow pits and roadway constructions are typical applications in civil Engineering. Although several methods for volume estimation were introduced, the average end area method still the common method used by owners and contractors. Average end area method is tedious and time consuming. Volume of terrains that do not have regular geometric structure can be … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 1 Sep 2015 · 8,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHABITAT SUITABILITY MODELING FOR EXPLORATION OF THE SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF KASHMIR MUSK DEER IN DACHIGAM NATIONAL PARK, KASHMIRMudasir AliMusk deer are highly important as a medicinal species that are severely exploited throughout their range of occurrence due to the medicinal value of the musk produced only by the male individuals. Methods used for studying the populations and distributions of other ungulates do not work well with musk deer and the presence of a unified methodology for studying musk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 20 Aug 2014 · 7,864 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVelocity of Heart Rate Recovery in Post-Exercise Under Different Protocols of Active RecoveryMaria Angela Magalhaes De Queiroz Carreira, Felipe Montes Pena, Mauricio B.F. Rachid et al.Abnormalities in the modulation of parasympathetic activity have been identified as a possible pathophysiological link with the association between decreases in heart rate recovery after exercise test. Hypothesis: To investigate if the application of different protocols of active recovery promotes difference in reducing Heart Rate (HR) in Post-Exercise (PE). This was a prospective, randomized trial of patients undergoing Exercise Testing … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 12 Nov 2013 · 7,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeomorphology Using Geographic Information System and Globel MapperEmad AkawwiAn effort has been made to evaluate drainage morphometry and its influence on landform processes, geology and erosion characteristics in Jordan Valley and surrounding area. Geological maps 1:50,000 scale and the professional Google Earth images were used for analysis of various morphometric, lithological and landform characteristics of Jordan Valley basin. Morphometric analysis was carried out at sub basin level using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Sep 2013 · 7,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBed-Load Sediment Profile and Effect of River Bank Erosion on River Cross-SectionMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Frankie Marcus Ata, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mushrifah IdrisThe processes of lateral and riverbank erosion are among the elements of river morphology dynamic resulting from natural processes and human activities. This process has been studied in detail throughout the research for four months starting from 7 October 2009 to 26 January 2010. In this research, technique of erosion pins were applied at five plots selected along the Chini … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRiver Embankment and Bank Failure: A Study on Geotechnical Characteristics and Stability AnalysisMd. Bellal Hossain, Toshinori Sakai, Md. Zakaria HossainProblem statement: Embankment failure and riverbank erosion are common problem in Bangladesh. Almost every year earthen embankments and riverbanks are facing problems like erosion, breaching or retirements. Among many reasons the major causes are considered due to the use of geotechnically unstable materials, improper method of construction, seepage and sliding. In this study the problem is considered geotechnical point of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 11,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandslide Susceptibility Assessment using Frequency Ratio Model Applied to an Area along the E-W Highway (Gerik-Jeli)Tareq H. Mezughi, Juhari Mat Akhir, Abdul Ghani Rafek, Ibrahim AbdullahProblem statement: The study area is frequently subjected to landslides especially alongside the E-W high way. This study demonstrates the implementation of the Frequency Ratio (FR) model with the aid of GIS tool to assess the contribution of every predisposing factor on landslides and produce a landslide susceptibility map to the area. Approach: A landslide location map of the study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 9,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Evapotranspiration Variability and Trends in the Arabian PeninsulaMohammad ElNesr, Abdulrahman Alazba, Majed Abu-ZreigProblem statement: Climate variability is receiving much attention recently because it has significant effects on water resources and therefore on the livelihood of society especially in water scarce countries such the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Approach: The aim of this study was to explore changes in the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) using data from 27 weather stations through years 1980-2008 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,011 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Method for Testing Digital to Analog Converter in Static RangeK. Hariharan, S. Gouthamraj, B. Subramaniam et al.Problem statement: Linearity testing methods for DAC usually involves usage of non-linear analog components, which are indeed prone to various errors. Few other testing methodologies involve complex circuitry for measuring exactitude of DAC. Practically, it is difficult to build those as Built In Self Test (BIST) due to complexity of calculation, which demands more usage of ALU (or core of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
