Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Assessment of Non-Seismically Designed Reinforced Concrete Frames with Core WallsTaek-Hyun Lee, Ki-Bong Choi, Taher Abu-LebdehThis study examines the seismic performance of four non-seismically designed reinforced concrete structures with core walls and proposes proper rehabilitation methods. The structures were selected based on the height of the structures, occupancy levels and floor plans. The seismic assessment results were compared based on the performance of the structures before rehabilitation and after rehabilitation. The results indicate that most … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 13 Dec 2014 · 6,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNEW CONSTRUCTION METHOD OF RECTANGULAR PARTIALLY BALANCED INCOMPLETE BLOCK DESIGNS AND SINGULAR GROUP DIVISIBLE DESIGNSRezgui Imane, Z. Gheribi-AoulmiIn this study, we propose a new method of construction of rectangular Partially Balanced Incomplete Block (PBIB) designs of size k = 2s and 2≤s < l and singular Group Divisible (GD) designs of size k = 2l, l is the number of columns in a rectangular matrix containing v = n × l treatments. We give the parameters expression … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Jan 2014 · 9,235 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiation and Thermal Effects in Experimental High Dense Metal Fuel Elements for Advanced LMFRGolovchenko YulianKnown disadvantages of high-dense α-U metal fuel (intense radiation growth and radiation swelling, poor compatibility with steel claddings) can be reduced to the minimum by "constructive" approaches based on mechanical restraint of radiation growth and swelling and also on application of protective layers on fuel columns and claddings. Effectiveness of these methods has been confirmed during irradiation of full-sized fuel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Aug 2013 · 7,029 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Link Dimensions on D Type Eccentric Steel FramesMazen Ali MusmarIn seismic prone regions, buildings are designed to maintain sufficient stiffness during moderate earthquakes and to absorb and dissipate a large amount of the energy released due to severe earthquakes. The usual steel framing systems; the moment frames require larger member sections to satisfy stiffness requirements and have large ductility capacity, the concentrically braced frames satisfy stiffness on the expense … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2013 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemediation of Diesel Contaminated Soils Using Surfactants: Coulumn StudyE. Salehian, A. Khodadadi, B. HosseiniThis study presents the experimental remediation studies of diesel contaminated soil with Sodium Deducible Sulfate (SDS) as surfactants using column tests. Sandy selected soil had the grain size distribution of # 40 meshes to the # 200 mesh range. The soil columns were contaminated with adequate diesel amount to achieve the concentration of 10000 and 20000 ppm in soil. 0.1, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Jun 2012 · 8,325 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplified Procedure for Unsaturated Flow ParametersNatthawit Jitrapinate, Vichai Sriboonlue, Kriengsak Srisuk, Dolrerdee HormdeeProblem statement: The unsaturated hydraulic conductivity K(θ) and Soil Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) for saline soil or soil directly contacted with saline water are not permitted using several apparatus to determining. Approach: A simplified method to determine K(θ) and SWCC by using simple apparatus is presented. Using the proposed numerical model with the van Genuchten equations and inverse calculation for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval and Recovery of Lead from Aqueous Solution by Low Cost MediaLucia Pappalardo, Fawwaz Jumean, Naser AbdoProblem statement: To remove Pb(II) from wastewater using local UAE sand and then to recover the removed Pb(II). Approach: Removal efficiency of Pb(II) from wastewater was investigated using white, yellow and red United Arab Emirates sand with pore sizes < 300 μm. Two methods were employed: batch equilibrium and column filtration. In the batch equilibrium study, the effect of sand … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of the Effect of Lossy and Lossless Block Based Binary Plane Techniques on Medical ImagesNalla Subhash Chandra, Mahaboob Basha Shaik, A. Govardhan, M. BalrajuProblem statement: The general and medical images in specific contain different regions holding information of different significances. To elaborate medical information, the doctor prefers to focus on certain selected region (s) of interest. So for medical images the diagnostically important regions must be preserved at high quality, whereas the rest of the image is required only in a contextual sense. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 23 Oct 2010 · 7,381 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreasing Database Performance through Optimizing Structure Query Language Join StatementOssama K. Muslih, Imad Hasan SalehProblem statement: A join statement is a select statement with more than table in the FROM clause. A join predicate is a predicate in the WHERE clause that combines the columns of two of the tables in the join. Any database gives you the ability to join various tables together through different types of joins, resulting large number of rows … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,265 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPurification of Chymotrypsin-Trypsin Inhibitor from Winged Bean Seeds using Single Step Immunoaffinity ColumnSanhita Roy, Samir Kumar DuttaProblem statement: Winged bean is a rich source of protease inhibitors. The seeds of winged bean contain several serine protease inhibitors of which winged bean chymotrypsin-trypsin inhibitor (WbCTI) is of significant importance due to its dual inhibition of both chymotrypsin and trypsin. The purification of WbCTI has always been difficult and a time taking process that involved large number of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
