Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSEDIMENT CORE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS OF KAW LAKEDejene Alemayehu, Jason McAlister, William FoxThe Kaw Nation and Black land Research Center in July 2012 conducted a sediment core sampling from Kaw Lake. Kaw Lake is a reservoir constructed in 1976 by the Army Corps of Engineers for the purpose of water supply and recreation. It is located 11 miles east of Ponca City, Kay County, Oklahoma. This reservoir covers approximately 17,040 acres (69 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Scalable and Reliable Cost Effective Key Agreement Protocol for Secure Group CommunicationS. Jabeen Begum, Dr. T. PurusothamanProblem statement: In a heterogeneous environment, for a secure multicast communication, the group members have to share a secret key which is used to encrypt/decrypt the secret messages among the members. The Secure Group Communication of large scale multicast group in a dynamic environment is more complex than securing one-to-one communication due to the inherent scalability issue of group key … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2011 · 6,966 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Strength and Durability Properties of High Performance Mortar Containing Densified Silica FumeCheah Chee Ban, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Numerous data and information on pozzolanic reaction and microfiller properties of silica fume were derived from laboratory investigation on silica fume in undensified form. Currently, due to low bulk density of undensified silica fume which poses problem in transportation and handling of the material, silica fume are commercially supplied in densified form. Densification process used to increase bulk … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTemporal Variability on Lowland River Sediment Properties and YieldMohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mohd Ekhwan Toriman, A.S. Sharifah Mastura et al.Problem statement: A sediment analysis study was conducted at the Chini River on 16 and 31 August 2008. This study was conducted to review the formation of suspended sediment load in the Lake Chini catchment area, which flows into the Pahang River via the Chini River. Approach: Three sampling stations were chosen, the first one at upstream Chini River (S1), … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Tillage Methods on Soil Fragmentation in Loamy-Clay SoilsYousef Abbaspour-Gilandeh, Vali Rasooli Sharabiani, Ahmad KhalilianProblem statement: Soil fragmentation is a primary aim in tillage in order to create a favorable soil environment for crop growth. Soil fragmentation is defined as the process of breakdown and crumbling of soil aggregates. Currently, there is no published research data on optimum tillage operations for seedbed preparation in loamy-clay soils of western Caspian Sea region of Iran. Approach: … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 10,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFoundry Wastes Reuse and Recycling in Concrete ProductionSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiThe industrial process of a cast iron foundry plant located in the North of Italy was analyzed in order to determine the amount and kind of produced wastes. The main fractions are core and moulding sands, muds and powders from dust abatement plants, furnace and ladle slags, and exhaust lime, making about 750-800 t/d of residues for a production of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling of Wastewater Oxidation under Microgravity ConditionsBoyun Guo, Donald W. Holder, David S. SchechterVolatile removal assembly (VRA) is a module installed in the International Space Station for removing contaminants (volatile organics) in the wastewater produced by the crew. The VRA contains a slim pack bed reactor to perform catalyst oxidation of the wastewater at elevated pressure and temperature under microgravity conditions. Optimal design of the reactor requires a thorough understanding about how the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Particle Separation in Bends of Rectangular Cross-sectionBingtao ZhaoA new theoretical model for predicting particle separation efficiency in bends is developed based on the investigation of flow pattern, the critical particle size separation theory and the boundary layer separation theory. The radial particle concentration gradient, instead of the usually assumed uniform radial particle concentration within the bends, is considered in this mathematical model. The local particle concentration and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,860 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Lignin Fraction Extracted from Brazilian Energy CropsDiogo José Horst, Jhon Jairo Ramírez Behainne, Pedro Paulo de Andrade Junior, Luís Filippe SerpeThis study quantifies the extraction performance and some properties of the lignin obtained from six crops with potential for generating thermal energy in Brazil. A full factorial design (22) with four replicates including two extraction methods and two particles size distributions was adopted for assessing the fraction of lignin, as well as its Higher Heating Value (HHV) and composition given … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2015 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultistage Median Ranked Set Sampling for Estimating the Population MedianAbdul Aziz Jemain, Amer Al-Omari, Kamarulzaman IbrahimWe modify RSS to come up with new sampling method, namely, Multistage Median Ranked Set Sampling (MMRSS). The MMRSS was suggested for estimating the population median and to increase the efficiency of the estimator for specific value of the sample size. The MMRSS was compared to the Simple Random Sampling (SRS), Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) and Median Ranked Set Sampling … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,148 accessesView PDFCite
