Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImprovement of the Vertical Dispersion of Pollutants Resulting From Chimneys by Thermosiphon EffectA. O.M. Mahmoud, J. Zinoubi, R. B. Maad, A. BelghithThe dispersion of pollutants, resulting from industrial chimneys, in the surrounding atmosphere made the interest in realizing emitting conditions appears. It also encourages the vertical dispersion of these pollutants. At a given wind velocity, the height of this dispersion is essentially a function of the thermal power and the flow rate at the chimney exit. To improve these qualities, we … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,406 accessesView PDFCite

GhaffarpourThis study presents a numerical study concerning flow control by suction and injection. The case studied is the flow field over a subsonic airfoil with four suction and injection slots on the suction side of the airfoil. Five different angles of attack, 0, 5, 10, 13.3 and 20 with the Mach number of 0.15 are studied. Three cases are studied … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,428 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTRANSPIRATION INFLUENCES CADMIUM UPTAKE BY BABY LEAF SPINACH (SPINACIA OLERACEA L.)Carlo Chehine, Paul Holford, Oula Ghannoum et al.Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal whose concentration in soils is rising. This study investigated the effect of transpiration on Cd uptake by plants using soil conditions akin to those experienced by field crops. Two experiments were performed using baby leaf spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) grown in soil containing Chloride (Cl) at a typical concentration of 70 mg kg-1. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2014 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScale Formation Due to Water Injection in Malaysian Sandstone CoresAmer Badr Bin Merdhah, Abu Azam Mohd YassinProblem statement: Scale deposition is one of the most serious oil field problems that inflict water injection systems primarily when two incompatible waters are involved. Approach: This study was conducted to investigate the permeability reduction caused by deposition of calcium, strontium and barium sulphates in sandstone cores from mixing of injected Malaysian sea waters (Angsi and Barton) and formation water … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWind Speed Simulation Using WaveletsA. H. Siddiqi, S. Khan, S. RehmanMost of the renewable energy sources have direct or indirect link with the sun. Wind is also a form of solar energy. It is initiated by uneven heating of the atmospheric air by the sun, affected from the topography and surface roughness of the earth's surface and rotation of the earth.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel River Meander Migration and Cutoff Model: A New PerspectiveYoussef Ismail HafezAccurate prediction of river meander migration is crucial for effective river management and operation, particularly in light of climate changes and human-induced interventions. Existing models often rely on single-equation approaches, such as bank erosion rate versus excess bank velocity or excess bank shear stress, which limit their ability to comprehensively capture the complex dynamics of meander evolution. This study presents … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2025 · 7,683 accessesView PDFCite
