InvestigationOpen accessEvery word in the titleImprovement of the Technology for Young-Stock Breeding of Black-and-White Diary Cattle in the Southeast of KazakhstanDinara Asylbekovna Begaliyeva, Aleydar Saldarovich Alentayev, Abdirakhman Moldanazarovich Ombayev, Dastanbek Asylbekovich BaimukanovIt was found that it is possible to give high-quality starter feeds to calves beginning from the 4th day of age and not later than from the 10th-12th day of age. A high-calorie starter contains 16-18% of raw protein or 20% of protein, if calves are weaned when they are four weeks old or younger. Whole milk in the ration … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2017 · 7,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Hybrid Feature Extraction Method for Accuracy Improvement in “Aksara Lontara” TranslationIntan Sari Areni, Asyraful Insan Asry, IndrabayuAn Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of “Aksara Lontara” has been constructed using a novel combination of feature extraction methods in this study. The ancient font of “Lontara” is then translated into Bahasa Indonesia to help non-native language to learn this language. Two powerful extraction feature methods, i.e., Modified Direction Feature (MDF) and Fourier Descriptor (FD) are stages combined to deal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 27 Aug 2017 · 8,855 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Investigation on Performance Improvement in Tube Inserted with Delta Winglets on Discrete Right-Angled Triangular PlatesAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiNumerical investigations on flow topology and heat transfer behavior in a round tube heat exchanger inserted with Delta Winglets (DW) on Discrete Right-angled Triangular Plates (DRTP) are performed. The influences of DW heights; b/D or BR = 0.05-0.25 and flow directions; DW with V-Downstream (DWVD) and DW with V-Upstream (DWVU), are studied for turbulent flow; Re = 3000-10,000. The finite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2017 · 7,054 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUse of the Nere Pod (Parkia Biglobosa) for the Improvement of Mechanical Properties of SoilsSinko Banakinao, Sonnou Tiem, Kodjo Attipou et al.Buildings made of unbaked clay have some advantage in terms of production cost. However, they have some inconveniences concerning their mechanical performance, particularly their resistance to weather. The objective of this study is to minimize these disadvantages and to maximize the benefits of such buildings to make them more viable. For this purpose, a method based on a traditional practice … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 16 Feb 2017 · 7,853 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleChemical Mutagenesis for Improvement of Production of a Biologically Active Extracellular Polymeric Substance by Halomonas xianhensis SUR308Jhuma Biswas, Amal K. PaulA moderately halophilic bacterium, Halomonas xianhensis SUR308 (Genbank Accession No. KJ933394) isolated from solar saltern of Surala, Odisha, India was found to produce significant amount of a biologically active extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). Under optimized cultural conditions, the strain was able to produce 7.05 g L-1 of EPS after 8 days of incubation under shake culture. To enhance the EPS … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2016 · 15,926 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMethod of Efficiency Improvement in District Heating SystemsAndrey Gennadiievich Batuhtin, Maxim Stanislavovich Bass, Sergey Anatoljevich Ivanov et al.The article determines application potential of solar energy in conditions of sharply continental climate. It presents an energy-efficient solar energy recovery scheme in district heating systems, allowing to reduce capital costs and maintenance charges and to increase degree of substitution of conventional sources of heat. Versatility of systems using this method results in its multi-zone application: From a cottage-type house … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Feb 2016 · 7,525 accessesView PDFCite
