Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent and Future Nanotech Applications in the Oil IndustryCocuzza Matteo, Pirri Candido, Rocca Vera, Verga FrancescaProblem statement: Nanotech applications in the oil industry are not completely new: nanoparticles have been successfully used in drilling muds for the past 50 years. Only recently all the other key areas of the oil industry, such as exploration, primary and assisted production, monitoring, refining and distribution, are approaching nanotechnologies as the potential Philosopher's stone for facing critical issues related … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 13 Mar 2012 · 10,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of a Novel Control Strategy Using Fuzzy Logic Controller to Shunt Active Filter for Line Harmonic ReductionN. Senthilnathan, T. ManigandanProblem statement: Now days, power quality has been given attention due to the intensive use of power electronic equipments in all types of industries such as steel, paper, textile industries and so on. These power electronic devices induce harmonic distortion into the supply lines which gives rise to many undesirable effects. Approach: This study presents a new method for harmonic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 29 Feb 2012 · 7,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBusiness-to-Business: The Salesperson's DilemmaGopala Ganesh, Somjit BaratProblem statement: There is a lack of research on B2B e-commerce, especially involving input from B2B executives. To bridge that gap, we investigate whether (1) buyers and sellers differ significantly in their preference for traditional over the online purchase method across different products and across different purchase criteria and whether (2) buyers prefer the traditional over the online method across … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 16 Sep 2011 · 7,635 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn M-Learning System Based on Mobile Phones and Quick Response CodesHend S. Al-KhalifaProblem statement: Many instructors in academia wish to know how much their students understand the content of the lecture; however, doing this manually will be very difficult and time consuming. Similarly, most students have communication problems with their instructors and they wish if they can ask their questions without any fear. So a need for a technology to bridge these … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 9 Mar 2011 · 6,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling and Control of a Photovoltaic Energy System Using the State-Space Averaging TechniqueMohd Saifuzam Jamri, Tan Chee WeiProblem statement: This study presented the modeling and control of a stand-alone Photovoltaic (PV) system using the state-space averaging technique. Approach: The PV module was modeled based on the parameters obtained from a commercial PV data sheet while state-space method is used to model the power converter. A DC-DC boost converter was chosen to step up the input DC voltage … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,997 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Stability and Ultimate Boundedness of Solutions for Certain Third Order Differential EquationsA.T. Ademola, P.O. ArawomoProblem Statement: With respect to our observation in the relevant literature, work on stability and boundedness of solution for certain third order nonlinear differential equations where the nonlinear and the forcing terms depend on certain variables are scare. The objective of this study was to get criteria for stability and boundedness of solutions for these classes of differential equations. Approach: … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControl Strategy for Discontinuous Conduction Mode Boost Rectifier with Low Total Harmonic Distortion and Improved Dynamic ResponseH.S. AthabDue to its simplicity, the discontinuous conduction mode boost rectifier is potentially the least expensive active line-harmonics reducing circuit. Problem statement: The line current however, shows considerable distortion when the peak input voltage is close to the output voltage, As a result, the input power factor is poor. This study proposes a simple, low-cost method to reduce the line harmonics. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Distance Based Route Maintenance Strategy for Dynamic Source Routing ProtocolMuhammad F. Sjaugi, Mohamed Othman, Mohd. Fadlee A. RasidAlthough DSR can respond a route quickly, it yields a long delay when a route is rebuilt. This is because when source node receives RERR packet, it will try to find alternative routes from the route cache. If alternative routes are not available, the source node, then, will enter route discovery phase to find new routes. We introduced a new … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison Between Biological Treatment and Chemical Precipitation for Nitrogen Removal from Old Landfill LeachateLong Tengrui, Anas F. Al-Harbawi, He Qiang, Zhai JunThe study reports the results of a laboratory scale investigation aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of mature municipal landfill leachate treatment by a biological stage (used SBBR as a biological treatment) and Chemical precipitation (Used MAP precipitation (magnesium ammonium phosphate)) to study the nitrogen removal capabilities for treatment of sanitary landfill leachate containing high ammonia concentration, and the comparison between … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristics of Nitrogen Removal from Old Landfill Leachate by Sequencing Batch Biofilm ReactorLong Tengrui, Anas F. Al-Harbawi, Lin Ming Bo et al.Municipal landfill leachate is a high strength wastewater characterized by high concentrations of organics and ammonia and potentially containing toxic materials. The paper reports the results of a laboratory scale investigation aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of mature municipal landfill leachate treatment by a biological stage (used SBBR as a biological treatment) to study the nitrogen removal capabilities for treatment … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 8,046 accessesView PDFCite
