Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVIDENCE OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL KUZNETS CURVE: IMPLICATIONS OF INDUSTRIAL TRADE DATAJamalludin Sulaiman, Azlinda Azman, Behnaz SabooriThis study examines the dynamic relationship between CO2 emissions and economic growth in Malaysia for the period of 1980-2004. The evidence of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is tested by including energy consumption, dirty export from Malaysia to China and dirty import from China to Malaysia based on the two and three-digit ISIC data which reflect pollution-intensive manufacturing. Using dirty … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Mar 2013 · 7,254 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Potentialof Renewable Energy: Using The Environmental Kuznets Curve ModelJamalludin Sulaiman, Azlinda Azman, Behnaz SabooriThis study examines the potential of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in reducing the impact of carbon emission in Malaysia and the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, which leads to global warming. Using the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis, this study analyses the impact of electricity generated using RES on the environment and trade openness for the period 1980-2009. Using the Autoregressive … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Mar 2013 · 14,783 accessesView PDFCite

This research was an interventional-analytical study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 17 Feb 2013 · 7,229 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign, Development and Numerical Analysis of Honeycomb Core with Variable Crushing StrengthShabnam Sadeghi Esfahlani, Hassan Shirvani, Ayoub Shirvani et al.A honeycomb core with half-circular cut-away sections at the spine (the adjoining cell walls) is designed and developed and numerically tested under axial dynamic load condition. The parametric study is invoked to identify the effect of various circular cut-away dimensions. In one embodiment a half-circular shaped cuts are removed from the top of the cell where the cell is impacted … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2013 · 7,577 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Handwriting Velocity to Identify Handwriting Process from Electromyographic SignalsMohamed Benrejeb, Afef Abdelkrim, Ines ChihiProblem statement: Handwriting movement is one of the most complex activities of human motions. It’s a blend of kinesthetic, cognitive, perceptual and motor components. The study of this biological process shows that a bell-shaped velocity profiles are generally observed in the handwriting motion. We, therefore, assume that the handwriting speed has an important role in control and generation of this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 27 Aug 2012 · 7,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTeachers View on Social and Emotional Aspect of Pedagogical CompetenceInga Belousa, Skaidrite UzulinaProblem statement: Bologna process challenges European higher education area by comparability and compatibility of several issues including educators’ professional competence. However, through their educational philosophy and activity educators have discovered and shaped their own sense and meaning of pedagogical competence. During the time when teacher professional standard has been reexamined nationally, teachers’ voice in Latvia is still poorly considered. Therefore, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNative Understanding of Participation and Empowerment in Community DevelopmentN. Lyndon, R. Moorthy, A. C. Er, S. SelvaduraiProblem statement: The need for local community is often neglected at macro policy level and it is crucial to engage the native world view. The native view will provide adequate information of the needs and aspirations of the community. The aim of this study is to examine the native understanding of participation and empowerment in community development from the world … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 24 Oct 2011 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
