Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAnalysis of Power Uprate in Nuclear Power PlantsAlejandro Nuñez-Carrera, Ana Lidia Carreño-Padilla, Erick Gilberto Espinosa-Martínez, Raúl Camargo-CamargoThe three main strategies used by the utilities in order to obtain more benefits from the nuclear installations focused on electricity production and in order to satisfy their demand without carbon dioxide emissions are: (1) Power uprate, (2) plant life management and (3) plant life extension. Alone in the United States, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved more than 140 … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2017 · 7,603 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAnt Diversity in a Sugarcane Culture without the Use of Straw Burning in Southeast, Sao Paulo, BrazilDébora Rodrigues De Souza, Erich Stingel, Luiz Carlos de Almeida et al.Problem statement: One of the current requirements of agroecosystem management is the maintenance of biodiversity. Manual sugarcane harvesting with the previous burning of straw has been gradually replaced by mechanical harvesting in Brazil. However, the diversity of Formicidae, which can be a natural pest controller, has not been studied in this new system yet. Approach: This study was carried out … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,651 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAn Engineer's Mathematical Approach to Designing an Emergency Room Decontamination Area for Weapons of Mass Destruction CasualtiesEldo E. Frezza, Erica Fletcher, Veronica Flores et al.This study will focus on the potential requirements for an emergency response facility in case of weapons of mass destruction casualties proposing mathematical models. A complete emergency room layout will be designed taking the following analyses and requirements into consideration: quality function development (QFD) and product layout; average number of patients in the system, average time in the system, average … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,433 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus PCR in Detecting Target(s) of Hapalindole-T, From a Cyanobacterium, in Escherichia Coli: In Silico ValidationManoj K. Tripathi, Maheep Kumar, Vinay K. Singh et al.Problem statement: Identification of newer biomolecule as well as targets are a rising concern because of increasing drug resistance in bacteria. We have isolated a broad spectrum antibiotic biomolecule Hapalindole-T from a cyanobacterium, Fisherella sp. growing on local Azadirachta indica tree bark. A model bacterium E. coli was screened spontaneously for Hap-T resistance. These resistant strains of E. coli were … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 13,780 accessesView PDF Cite
