Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPersonal Exposure to PM2.5 in the Various Microenvironments as a Traveler in the Southeast Asian CountriesSemih Ozler, Karoline K. Johnson, Michael H. Bergin, James Jay SchauerAir pollution has become a pressing issue in today’s society because of its significant effects on humans, animals, plants, air quality, climate and the wider environment. Most urban areas are associated with one or more air pollutants which are emitted from local or regional pollution sources including vehicle exhausts, fossil fuels using in energy production, emissions from industrial and mining … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 27 Oct 2018 · 9,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn-Plane Behavior of Infills using Glass Fiber Shear Connectors in Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM) TechniqueFarhad Akhoundi, Graça Vasconcelos, Paulo LourençoMasonry has a widespread use in the construction of the buildings even in reinforced concrete or steel frames. Past earthquakes have demonstrated the vulnerability of masonry infills resulted in the human life losses and economic costs. Recently innovative strengthening techniques such as Textile Reinforced Mortar technique (TRM) is used for enhancing the seismic response of the infills. Different procedures were … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2018 · 9,090 accessesView PDFCite

The highway structure, as the mine of vibration, includes common layers and also special materials with dumping properties. It is the geomesh reducing the crack creation caused by fatigue, the tension strength increase and excess settlement The stress concentration in the bitumen structure reduces and separates into … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 23 Nov 2017 · 7,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the History of Vocabulary Study of Kipchak Languages GroupLyazat Meirambekova, Gulgaisha Sagidolda, Magripa Yeskeyeva et al.The article is devoted to the consideration of the development and formation process of the written Turkic languages from the beginning of the XX century. The research is based on the construction of separate lexicology of Turkic languages on the materials of Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Bashkir, Kumyk, Nogai and Tatar languages. The general lexicological fund of Turkic languages is investigated. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 11 Nov 2016 · 7,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Dynamic Thermal Behavior of Building Envelope in Summer Conditions By Means of in-Field Continuous MonitoringAnna Laura Pisello, Gloria Pignatta, Cristina Piselli et al.The effect of dynamic properties of building opaque envelope in summer conditions is investigated by means of an extensive continuous monitoring of a dedicated experimental field. Two test-buildings, a weather station and two microclimate stations positioned in each test-building represent the experimental field. The prototype buildings have been specifically designed to present the same stationary envelope properties, but different construction … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 25 Apr 2016 · 8,562 accessesView PDFCite

The objectives of this research is to develop an Archimedean’s Pipe-Screw especially for water pumping in case of low head high volume form open farm … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 22 Apr 2014 · 7,359 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF USING STEEL SLAG AGGREGATE ON MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETESultan A. Tarawneh, Emhaidy S. Gharaibeh, Falah M. SarairehThis study presents an evaluation of the physical and mechanical properties and characteristics of steel slag aggregate concrete in comparison with the typical crushed limestone stone aggregate concrete. Hardened concrete consist of more than 70% aggregate due to the high demand in building construction and the increase of the amount of disposed waste material, suppliers and researchers are exploring the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 10 Feb 2014 · 8,063 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysical Composition, Nutrients and Contaminants of Typical Waste Dumping SitesH. Meuser, K. S. Grewal, R. Anlauf et al.Problem statement: The composition of wastes is quite variable depending upon the generating source and mode of collection. Most of the material from the domestic activities will be organic in nature and contains essential plant nutrients, whereas the dumping material of commercial and industrial wastes usually contains appreciable amounts of heavy and potentially toxic metals and organic pollutants. Approach: Objective … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNoise Control Using Coconut Coir Fiber Sound Absorber with Porous Layer Backing and Perforated PanelRozli Zulkifli, Zulkarnain, Mohd Jailani Mohd NorProblem statement: Noise control was one of the major requirements to improve the living environment. One of the methods to do that is provided by sound absorber. Commonly, multi-layer sound absorbers are applied to absorb broadband noise that was composed of perforated plates, air space and porous material. However, multi-layers sound absorbers effectiveness depends on their construction. This study was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 14,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on Geomechanical Properties of Tropical Organic Soils and PeatBujang B.K. Huat, Afshin Asadi, Sina KazemianProblem statement: Organic soils and peat were believed to be geotechnically problematic due to their very high compressibility, very low shear strength and difficult accessibility. Although conventional soil mechanics theory could be applied to the soils, it was found that important anomalies existed which required special considerations. Correlations between geomechanical parameters for the soils were known to be important for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 10,177 accessesView PDFCite
