Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGas Atomization of Molten Metal: Part I. Numerical Modeling ConceptionGenaro Pérez-de León, Vincent E. Lamberti, Roland D. Seals et al.This numerical analysis study entails creating and assessing a model that is capable of simulating molten metal droplets and the production of metal powder during the Gas Atomization (GA) method. The essential goal of this research aims to gather more information on simulating the process of creating metal powder. The model structure and perspective was built through the application of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2016 · 9,047 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentifying Nutrient Contributors in North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater RiversNarayan B. Rajbhandari, Sushama Pradhan, Mauro Di Luzio et al.The goal of this study was to assess potential nitrogen and phosphorus contribution from point sources and non-point sources in North East Cape Fear River (NECFR) watershed in North Carolina. A watershed scale hydrologic model, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), was used to quantify Total Nitrogen (TN) and Total Phosphorus (TP) loadings to North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater Rivers. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2015 · 7,389 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpacts of Large-Scale Stormwater Green Infrastructure Implementation and Climate Variability on Receiving Water Response in the Salt Lake City AreaChris York, Erfan Goharian, Steven J. BurianThis study evaluated impacts of Green Infrastructure (GI) as a stormwater management practice on return flows and the further Implications of climate variability. The goal was to create a model to explore the impacts that bioretention and Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) representing GI had using goldsim and Stormwater Management Modeling (SWMM) software. The software was used to represent impacts that climate … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 20 Oct 2015 · 9,269 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Propensity to Fruit Consumption among Young People through the Cumulative Proportional Odds ModelMaurizio Lanfranchi, Carlo Giannetto, Angela Alibrandi, Agata ZirilliAfter in-depth studies, the World Health Organization (WHO), asserts and suggests that in order to improve human health and well-being it is necessary to eat 400 grams of fruit and vegetables on a daily basis, as well as to consume potatoes and other starchy tubers such as manioc. In Europe, recommendations vary from country to country. Generally, these suggestions are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 4 Sep 2015 · 6,580 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiscovering Nature’s Hidden Relationships, an Unattainable Goal?James R. JohnsonDiscovering hidden relationships, relationships that may reveal the secrets of nature, is a difficult if not impossible goal. This is primarily because the models of the two worlds, the Standard Model of Particle Physics (SMPP) and the Standard Model of Cosmology (SMC) have no elements in common, they are completely disjoint. Thus, relationships are hidden and finding them, may prove … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 13 Aug 2015 · 7,877 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Quantitative Pharmacology on Drug DevelopmentAna Ruiz-Garcia, Kourosh ParivarThesuccess of drug development rests over two well defined pillars, a goodunderstanding of the drug’s clinical pharmacology and the appropriate targetpopulation for whom the clinical use is intended. The label for human prescription drugsrequires a good understanding of the pharmacological effects (pharmacodynamicsor PD) and the mechanism of action of the drug as well as detailed informationof the drug’s Pharmacokinetics (PK): … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Apr 2015 · 7,158 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractData Mining in Time Series: Current Study and Future TrendTan Yan, Liudmila Ulanova, Ye Ouyang, Fengyuan XuTime series represent sequences of data points where usually their order is defined by the time when they were recorded. Thus, virtually any sequential recordings can be stored as time series: Stock prices, weather conditions, physical system parameters change, product quality monitoring, etc. This leads to ubiquity of time series in all scientific and practical fields (Esling and Agon, 2012); … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Jan 2015 · 8,756 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Traffic Management Model for Multi-Protocol Label Switching NetworkE. R. Naganathan, S. RajagopalanProblem statement: MPLS is a highly scalable, protocol agnostic and data-carrying mechanism. Traffic engineering is the major research area in MPLS due to the emerging requirements of MPLS and the internet usage. A major objective of traffic engineering is to minimize or eliminate high-loss situations. Another goal of traffic engineering is to balance the Quality of Service (QoS) against the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 15 Oct 2011 · 7,094 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Influencing the Design of Electronic learning system in Agricultural ExtensionAmir Ahmadpour, Mehdi Mirdamadi, Jamal F. Hosseini, Mohamad ChizariProblem statement: Nowadays appropriate training and education are important. Still some organizations make the mistake of not training their employees adequately in the utilization of ICT or in the use of internet information systems, often due to the cost of providing training and the loss in productivity when employees are absent. But many organizations have adopted e-learning as a solution … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 25 Aug 2011 · 7,990 accessesView PDF Cite
