Air distributor was introduced … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Activated Sludge Floc CharacteristicsIbrahim H. Mustafa, G. Ibrahim, Ali Elkamel, A. H. ElahwanyProblem Statement: The activated sludge system needs to improve the operational performance and to achieve more effective control. To realize this, a better quantitative understanding of the biofloc characteristics is required. The objectives of this study were to: (i) Study the biofloc characteristics from kinetics-mass transfer interaction point of view by quantification of the weight of the aerobic portion of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,426 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimultaneous Presence of Growth and Remodeling in the Bone Adaptation TheorySeyyed Amir Hooshiar Ahmedi, Gholamreza Rouhi, Hamidreza Katouzian, Seyyed Ali Hooshiar AhmediMechanical forces acting on bone during growth affect their final shape and strength. Mechanoregulation of bone growth is maybe recognized in embryogenesis, and also in the adaptation of the adult skeleton to changes in mechanical loading. By combining equations describing bone remodeling and growth with an iterative finite element analysis, a computational model to simulate the simultaneous effects of bone … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Blood Turbulent Flow in Carotid Artery Including the Effects of Mural Thrombosis Using Finite Element ModelingM. Arab-Ghanbari, M. M. Khani, A. Arefmanesh, F. Tabatabai-GhomsheArterial thrombosis is an extremely significant health problem. As a result of numerous factors involved in such problem, describing the role of hemodynamics in thrombogenesis has been asserted to be one of the most demanding and complicated challenges in biomechanics. An axisymmetric model considering fluid-structure interactions (FSI) was introduced and numerically solved for an artery with a thrombosis to perform … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,411 accessesView PDFCite

Mahmood Mat Yunus, Yap Wing Fen, Lim Mei YeeThis study presents the refractive index and FTIR spectra of virgin coconut oil and virgin olive oil that have been measured in the wavelength range from 491.0-667.8 nm. The measurement of refractive index was carried out using a minimum deviation method while the IR transmission ranging from 600-4000 cm-1 was measured using FTIR spectrometer respectively. The measurements were done at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 13,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Effect of Pile Skin Resistance Verses Pile Diameter Based on Experimental ResearchS. M. Marandi, M.A. KarimzadehIn spite of the many recent advances in pile design and execution methods, the quantitative effects of grouted pile skin resistance and form on subsequent pile behavior remains an area for research. There are many parameters involved in the analysis of the bearing capacity of piles and descriptive method theory of the loading effect for each parameter is very complex. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Heat Transport in a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel CellE. Afshari, S.A. JazayeriIn this study a two-phases, single-domain and non-isothermal model of a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell has been studied to investigate thermal management effects on fuel cell performance. A set of governing equations, conservation of mass, momentum, species, energy and charge for gas diffusion layers, catalyst layers and the membrane regions are considered. These equations are solved numerically in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,343 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Model For Sieves' Vibrations Analysis, Using an Algorithm Based on the False-Position MethodDinu I. Stoicovici, Miorita Ungureanu, Nicu Ungureanu, Mihai BanicaThe analysis of the sieves vibrations in the case of screening civil engineering construction bulk materials is usual made by using some differential equations depending on parameters related to different material and sieves characteristics. One of those parameters is the throwing coefficient -c- that is the ratio between the force capable to throw up the particle from the sieve surface, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Digital Signature Scheme Based on Factoring and Discrete LogarithmsE.S. Ismail, N.M.F. Tahat, R.R. AhmadProblem statement: A digital signature scheme allows one to sign an electronic message and later the produced signature can be validated by the owner of the message or by any verifier. Most of the existing digital signature schemes were developed based on a single hard problem like factoring, discrete logarithm, residuosity or elliptic curve discrete logarithm problems. Although these schemes … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
