Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimization of Mix Proportion of High Performance Mortar for Structural ApplicationsCheah Chee Ban, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Mortar mix is a major construction material in fabrication of ferrocement structural elements. However, there have been scarce amount of technical data available on suitable mix proportion to achieve structural grade mortar with specific strength requirement and adequate level of workability for proper placement into construction formwork. Moreover, current practice in ferrocement construction work which uses mortar mix … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 8,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Survey of Compute Intensive Algorithms for Ribo Nucleic Acids Structural DetectionRa’ed Al-Khatib, Rosni Abdullah, Nur’Aini Abdul RashidProblem statement: Finding an accurate RNA structural alignment from primary sequence due to it is time consuming and computationally NP-hard problem is a major bioinformatics challenge. According to our investigation majority of current researches were concerned on achieving faster execution time, improving space complexity and better cache management. Recently one research introduced cache-efficient Chip Multiprocessor (CMP) algorithms with good speed-up … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHeating Effects on Structural and Electrical Properties of PolyetherimideNissaf Mzabi, Hichem Smaoui, Hajer Guermazi et al.Problem statement: Polyetherimide (PEI) has several uses such as electrical insulation. It can undergo different constraints like heat or high voltage which influence its performances as insulator. In this study, the effects of heating on structural and electrical properties of polyetherimide (Ultem 1000) are studied. Approach: PEI samples were heated at different temperatures below the glass transition temperature (175, 190 … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNifH: Structural and Mechanistic Similarities with Proteins Involved in Diverse Biological ProcessesSurobhi Lahiri, Lakshmi Pulakat, Nara GaviniThe NifH protein is a subunit of the nitrogenase enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia. This protein contains highly conserved regions including the nucleotide binding sites, metal center ligands and the Switch I and Switch II domains. A number of proteins have structural and mechanistic similarities as well as evolutionary relationships with the NifH protein, notable … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHeuristic Algorithm in Optimal Discrete Structural DesignsAlongkorn Lamom, Thaksin Thepchatri, Wanchai RivepiboonThis study proposes a Heuristic Algorithm for Material Size Selection (HAMSS). It is developed to handle discrete structural optimization problems. The proposed algorithm (HAMSS), Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SA) and the conventional design algorithm obtained from a structural steel design software are studied with three selected examples. The HAMSS, in fact, is the adaptation from the traditional SA. Although the SA … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePerformance Comparison between Structural Element of Building Systems in MalaysiaM. R. Abdul Kadir, W. P. Lee, M. S. Jaafar et al.The Industrialized Building System (IBS) was introduced in Malaysia in 1966, but it failed to establish itself on a continuous basis though there has been a sustained large market for residential projects even since. One of the reasons behind this shortcoming is the lack of scientific data on labor productivity that could convince policy maker. Hence, the objective of this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,070 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigating the E-Learning Acceptance in Oman: Application of Structural Equation Modelling ApproachSalim Amor Al-Hajri, Syed Ghayas, Abdelghani EchchabiSimilar to many developing countries, Oman recognizes the importance of e-learning and Information Communication Technology (ICT) to enhance the higher education standards and compete in the global education markets. Many higher education organizations today expect e-learning to add value to their organization and hence improve the economy by extending their educational services to students and other students who are not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 17 Mar 2018 · 8,400 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleVermicompost Incorporation into Soil Contaminated with Deltamethrin as an Attempt to Reduce the Toxicity Caused by this Pyrethroid: A Structural Study of SoilFernanda Benetti, Lívia B.F. Pigatin, Michelle M. Kanashiro et al.The use of vermicompost for remediating soil contaminated with the commercial formulation containing deltamethrin was proposed. Biotoxicity tests with the goal of evaluating the potential remediation degree of the vermicompost after its addition to contaminated soils were performed. The tests lasted 56 days and involved Eisenia foetida earthworms. Possible structural changes in humic acids from these soils were evaluated by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 16 Aug 2017 · 7,169 accessesView PDFCite
