Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeterminants of Sicilian Wine Consumption: Evidence from a Binary Response ModelFrancesco Caracciolo, Giuseppe Di Vita, Maurizio Lanfranchi, Mario D’AmicoThe growing importance of Sicilian wines in the Italian market provides the context in which this paper is set. This study presents the results of a recent survey on Sicilian wine consumption in Italy. By means of a binary response model, this paper evaluates the main determinants (demographic profile, preference and attitudes) that influence Italian consumers' preferences for Sicilian wines. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 5 Nov 2015 · 6,896 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantum Uncertainty and the Fifth DimensionPaul S. WessonIf the world has an extra dimension, the motion of a particle in spacetime may be slightly modified, producing a correlation between the momentum and position similar to that familiar from the uncertainty relation in quantum mechanics. …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 19 Aug 2015 · 13,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Pattern of Natural Spread of Rice False Smut (Ustilaginoidea virens) Disease in FieldsBodrun Nessa, Moin U. Salam, A.H.M. Mahfuzul Haque et al.Pattern of disease spread provides improved knowledge on how the pathogen introduces itself and interacts with environment in fields and expresses as a disease. It is especially significant when epidemiology of a disease, such as Rice False Smut (RFSm), is unclearly understood. Not reported before, this study attempted an analysis of spatial pattern of natural spread of RFSm in nine … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2015 · 8,644 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHEAT INTENSITY OF URBAN BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN HOT HUMID CLIMATE REGIONBeta Paramita, Hiroatsu FukudaLarge numbers of inhabitants in a dense area require land coverage for sheltering purposes. The anthropogenic heat emission potentially reduces ventilation of urban areas and significantly brings changes in air temperature. This study is aimed at finding the correlations between urban form and the alteration of urban microclimate in different land-uses. This study has been carried out in Bandung, Indonesia, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 16 Apr 2014 · 7,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDECOUPLING BETWEEN TORSION AND MAGNETIC FIELDS IN BOUNCING COSMOLOGY AND GALACTIC DYNAMO SEEDSL. C. Garcia de Andrade, A. FerrandezRecently Salim et al. (2007), have shown that galactic dynamo seeds can be possibly attainable in bouncing cosmological models with QED Lagrangeans. In this study we generalise their result by include torsion of spacetime in bouncing cosmology. It is shown that by considering a semi-minimal photon-torsion coupling and a Lagrangean of the type RF2 it is possible to find a … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2014 · 7,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIndoor Environmental Comfort in Malaysian Urban HousingYaik-Wah LimIn Malaysia, terraced houses have been rapidly constructed since 50 years ago and account for 44% of the existing urban housings. However, these houses have very limited use of natural ventilation and daylighting due to openings with small window-to-floor ratio. The deep plan design causes gloomy indoor spaces, low air change rate and poor indoor air quality. Studies showed that … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 22 Nov 2013 · 7,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOMPUTER-AIDED DECISION SYSTEM FOR REFRACTIVE SURGERIES WITH EXCIMER LASERRawan Baroudy, Bassam Lala124 patients (248 eyes) who intended to refractive surgery by Excimer laser were studied to implement our goal of this study which is design and operate a computer-aided decision system for optimal choosing the best refractive surgery based on patient needs, Starting from corneal topography and aberration images, using RGB and HSI color spaces and decision tree. The system also … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 13 Nov 2013 · 6,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhylogenetic Study of Some Strains of DunaliellaDuc Tran, Trung Vo, Sixto Portilla et al.Dunaliella strains were isolated from a key site for salt production in Vietnam (Vinh Hao, Binh Thuan province). The strains were identified based on Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) markers. The phylogenetic tree revealed these strains belong to the clades of Dunaliella salina and Dunaliella viridis. Results of this study confirm the ubiquitous nature of Dunaliella and suggest that strains of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGRAPH OF FINITE SEQUENCE OF FUZZY TOPOGRAPHIC TOPOLOGICAL MAPPING OF ORDER TWOMohamed Sayed, Tahir AhmadFuzzy Topographic Topological Mapping (FTTM) was built to solve the neuromagnetic inverse problem to determine the location of epileptic foci in epilepsy disorder patient. The model which consists of topological and fuzzy structures is composed into three mathematical algorithms. FTTM consists of four topological spaces and connected by three homeomorphisms. FTTM version 1 is also homeomorphic to FTTM version 2. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach to Damage Detection in Composite Body Structures Using Time Compensated Hyperspectral Image Analysis TechniqueMahmoud Zaki IskandaraniA novel approach to damage detection in composite car body structures using hyperspectral image index analysis algorithm is presented and discussed. The adapted technique allows the monitoring and analysis of a components structure based on correlation between time spaced thermal images. The technique produces several organized tables resulting from image fusion and frame deviation pixel redistribution calculations, which results in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 1 Feb 2013 · 7,267 accessesView PDFCite
