Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication and Tensile Property Analysis of Polymer Matrix Composites of Graphite and Silicon Carbide as FillersVikram G. Kamble, Naveen Kumar L.In a world there is ever-increasing demand for new materials, composite materials finds the topmost spot. Here in this work an attempt has been made to study the mechanical properties of Glass and Vinyl Ester composites with and without fillers. Laminates are prepared by Hand Layup technique with changing the volume percentage of Vinyl Ester and fillers in each. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 3 Dec 2015 · 8,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Combined Natural Convection and Radiation Heat Transfer Using a Similarity SolutionMehdi Zeyghami, Muhammad M. RahmanA similarity solution for laminar boundary layer in a buoyancy induced flow over an isothermal, vertical wall in the presence of radiation is developed. Radiation heat transfer is taken into account by application of the Rosseland approximation in the energy conservation equation. The family of similarity solutions to the governing equations is presented. The computed results show that thermal and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 16 Oct 2015 · 7,898 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUNSTEADY BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW ALONG A STRETCHING CYLINDER AN ANALYTICAL SOLUTIONM. Y. AklThe axisymetric laminar boundary layer unsteady flow along a continuously stretching cylinder immersed in a viscous and incompressible fluid is studied. The governing partial boundary layer equations in cylindrical form are first transformed into ordinary differential equations these equations are solved analytically using the optimal modified Homotopy Asymptotic method in order to get a closed form solution for the dimensionless … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 17 Feb 2014 · 7,152 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLithofacies and Depositional Environment of Volcano-Sedimentary Deposits of Se Mayo Oulo BasinElie Fosso Menkem, David Sebag, Benjamin Ngounou Ngatcha, Alain DurandThe study of volcano-sedimentary deposits of Mangbai in SE Mayo Oulo basin-Cameroon leads to the identification of five major distinct lithofacies types. From the coarset to the finest lithofacies, there are: Gb-clast supported by massive coble and boulder, Gg-granule to massive gravel, Sm-massive sand, Sh-horizontal layered sandstones, Fml-massive laminated claystones. Coarse facies (Gb, Gg, Sm) are cemented with volcanic matrix … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 19 Dec 2013 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlattening Effect on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Sintered-Wick Heat PipeWeeranut Intagun, Pradit Terdtoon, Phurt SakulchangsatjataiThe effect of pipe flattening on heat transfer characteristics and the internal phenomena of a sintered-wick heat pipe has been investigated by using three-dimensional Finite Element Method. The calculation domains were focused at three important regions, i.e., vapor core, wick and wall. The Cartesian coordinates and the three-dimensional tetrahedral elements were applied in this model. The selected total elements were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 4 Jul 2013 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Defects in Composite Materials Using an Improved Wavelet Analysis AlgorithmYahiaoui Aicha, Si-Chaib Med, O.A. ChellilProblem statement: The present work carries on the use of a method based on the wavelet transform to detect internal flaws of composite materials. The objective of this work consists in working out a data processing sequence of an ultrasonic signal identifying nearly flaws in composite laminate materials and estimating their position. Approach: The use of a numerical signal processing … …Physics International, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 12 Mar 2012 · 8,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGross Anatomy of the Stomach of the Oryx dammah (Cretzschmar, 1826)William Perez, Hassen JerbiProblem statement: The Oryx antelope is a grazing ruminant of the Bovidae family. The macroscopic anatomy of the stomach in one adult Oryx dammah, an extinct species in the wild, was described. Approach: The stomach of the Oryx was composed of the four classic compartments of the ruminants. The weight of all the full stomach was 21.5 kg. The ruminal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2012 · 9,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDamage Pattern and Nesting Characteristic of Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) in Oil Palm on PeatWei-Hong Lau, Choon-Fah J. Bong, Seow-Phan ChanThe oil palm industry of Malaysia has expanded into peat area in Sarawak. Problem statement: The subterranean termite Coptotermes curvignathus was a serious pest of oil palm on peat. Control of this termite has resorted to heavy usage of chemicals which was deemed uneconomical and hostile to the environment. Baiting system has inconsistent success due to the limited knowledge of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 8,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimple Improvement of Momentum Interpolation Equation for Navier-Stoke Equation Solver on Unstructured GridAdek TasriProblem statement: Pressure and velocity decoupling have been source of problem in solving Navier-Stokes and continuity equation particularly in complex collocated grid. The problem of pressure velocity decoupling is usually reduced by using momentum interpolation to calculate mass flux at face of control volume. Equation of momentum interpolation was derived by assumption that the face of cell is equidistant from … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,858 accessesView PDFCite
