Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMobile Ad Hoc Network Security for Reactive Routing Protocol with Node Reputation SchemeA. Suresh, Dr. K. DuraiswamyThe mobile node’s reputation in the Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) identifies its trust worthiness for secured multiple data communication. Unknown nature of the node’s communication status for initial period has great impact in the effective data transfer as MANET is self-organized and distributed. Problem statement: The functional operation of the mobile network relies on the trusty cooperation between the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 6,988 accessesView PDFCite

EidProblem statement: Contamination associated with pesticide use has increased as well, adversely impacting the environment and causing human health risks through residues on food. Approach: This study reports the extraction of Fenvalerate (FE) in chilies using QuEChERS based on High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) describes a simple, fast and inexpensive method. The chillie was extracted with acetonitrile Aliquots were cleaned-up … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Rigorous Mathematical Approach for Petrophysical Properties EstimationDario VibertiProblem statement: Over the last few decades, the oil industry has shown a growing interest in the new risk analysis methodologies aimed at the evaluation of the uncertainties associated with reservoir exploitation. In particular, the effort is made to take all possible sources of uncertainties into account so that not only the strengths but also the potential weaknesses of each … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWall Shear Stress Distribution in Patient Specific Coronary Artery BifurcationVahab Dehlaghi, Frank GijsenProblem statement: Atherogenesis is affected by hemodynamic parameters, such as wall shear stress and wall shear stress spatial gradient. These parameters are largely dependent on the geometry of arterial tree. Arterial bifurcations contain significant flow disturbances. Approach: The effects of branch angle and vessel diameter ratio at the bifurcations on the wall shear stress distribution in the coronary arterial tree … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpression of Adiponectin Receptors in Human Placenta and Its Possible Implication in Gestational DiabetesNaglaa Fathy Al Husseini, Mosaad M. Odaa, M.A. Mohamed et al.Problem statement: Similar to obese patients and type 2 diabetic patients, adiponectin levels are reduced in former Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) patients and are lower in GDM women during late pregnancy compared with pregnant control subjects matched for BMI. Diabetic insult at later stages in gestation, such as may occur in gestational diabetes, will foremost lead to short-term changes in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisk and Health Effect of Boric AcidAng Swi See, Abu Bakar Salleh, Fatimah Abu Bakar et al.Problem statement: Boric acid is a pesticide usually used to kill mites, fungi, plants and insect including fleas, termites, cockroaches and wood decay fungi. Besides, it was also used in many fields such as food preservative, in newborn baby’s nurseries and antiseptic. Many reports indicated that boric acid poisoning occurred due to the misuse of household product and illegal use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 11,268 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag Mitigation in a Refinery with Induction Motors LoadsTarek I. El-Shennawy, Abdel-Mon’em Moussa, Mahmoud A. El-Gammal, Amr Y. Abou-GhazalaProblem statement: ANRPC is a refinery based in Alexandria, Egypt. The plant was subjected to several shutdowns due to tripping of large induction motors, either by under voltage or by over current relays, sometimes by the mechanical protection. The main cause for such unplanned shutdowns was voltage sags. The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) has recently been introduced to protect the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,922 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Some Pesticide Residues in Cauliflower by High Performance Liquid ChromatographySheheli Islam, Nazneen Afrin, Mohammad Shawkat Hossain et al.Problem statement: Increased use of chemicals on vegetables started gaining momentum and continued its up-trend in Bangladesh. Wide spread use of pesticides in agriculture concern of residue accumulation, which may remain in food and agricultural environment causing concern of human health and risking ecological balance. Attempt made to ensure that their applications were correct and safe and result in no … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Severity of Mitral Valvular Regurgitation with Doppler Echocardiography Using Proximal Flow Convergence MethodPinjari Abdul Khayum, M.N. Giriprasad, P.V. SrideviProblem statement: Valvular regurgitation is recognized as the central cause of morbidity and mortality. Even though the clinician can detect the presence of regurgitation by mere physical examination; diagnostic methods become inevitable while estimating the severity of valvular regurgitation and in the transformation of cardiac chambers as in reaction to the volume overload condition. Lately, a promising new technology, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,220 accessesView PDFCite
