Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Nano Silica on the Compressive Strength of Harden Cement Paste at Different Stages of HydrationJustin Montgomery, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Sameer A. Hamoush, Miguel PicornellThis study investigated the compressive strength of hardened cement paste and the formation of Calcium Silicate Hydrate (C-S-H) with the addition of nano silica (SiO2). Compressive strength testing was performed using MTS and Forney testing machines to determine stress-strain curves and compressive strength of the materials. The hydration process and formation of C-S-H and Calcium Hydroxide (CH) was examined using … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Mar 2016 · 8,333 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHard Coal Fly Ash and Silica-Effect of Fine Particulate Matter Deposits on Brassica chinensisChristian Ulrichs, Uwe Schmidt, Tanja Mucha-Pelzer et al.Problem statement: One focus in recent atmospheric pollution research is on fine Particle Matter (PM), especially as result of increasing traffic and anthropogenic activity in urban areas. Here, the impact on animal and human health has been in the center of many studies. Despite the fact that PM depositions can affect plants on the long term, there are only few … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,648 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Behavior of Vertical Shear Links made of Easy-Going SteelAmir Saedi Daryan, Hesam Bahrampoor, Masood Ziaei et al.Problem Statement: Since the time that steel was first used as a construction material, engineers have attempted to increase strength, reduce weight and produce more economical structures by using elegant member sections. However, the increase in steel strength and the decrease in cross section area are not always useful and in some cases it is necessary to reduce the strength … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Rumen Acid Load on Postpartum Performance and Blood Metabolic Responses in Transition Holstein CowsSadjad Danesh Mesgaran, Alireza Vakili, Alireza Heravi Moosavi, Ghasem KoolabadiProblem statement: The transition period is the most stressful time in the production cycle of a dairy cow because of depressed feed intake, endocrine and metabolic changes at parturition. The aim was to determine the effect of rumen acid load on postpartum performance and metabolic parameters in transition Holstein cows. Approach: The Acidogenicity Values (AV) of the diets were determined … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 25 May 2011 · 7,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Modeling the Prosthetic Foot from Suitable Composite MaterialsHasan Saad Mohammed, Jasim Mohammed SalmanThis work concerns developing a composite material, which can be used in manufacturing prosthetic feet with a reasonable cost and satisfying mechanical properties. The characteristics were investigated by mechanical tests of tensile properties and Charpy impact strength. The study of date palm wood and its effects on the mechanical properties of polyethylene have received little attention. It was found that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2020 · 7,602 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR): A Novel Agent for Sustainable Food ProductionOdoh Chuks Kenneth, Eze Chibuzor Nwadibe, Akpi Uchenna Kalu, Unah Victor UnahPlant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) involves the use of large array of soil bacteria to improve yield, plant growth and sustainable food production. As free living and symbiotic rhizobacteria, PGPR exert its role by colonizing extracellular and/or intracellular rhizoenvironment in the quest for carbon source. In the past decades, focus has been on developing a biosafety agro base approach void … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 19 Apr 2018 · 14,183 accessesView PDFCite
