Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimultaneous Thermodynamic and Kinetic Parameters Determination Using Differential Scanning CalorimetryNader Frikha, Mohamed Bouroukba, Eric Schaer, Jean-Leon HouzelotProblem statement: The determination of reaction kinetics is of major importance, as for industrial reactors optimization as for environmental reasons or energy limitations. Although calorimetry is often used for the determination of thermodynamic parameters alone, the question that arises is: how can we apply the Differential Scanning Calorimetry for the determination of kinetic parameters. The objective of this study consists … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2011 · 7,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBanking Efficiency in Lebanon: An Empirical InvestigationMouataz Zreika, Nasser ElkanjProblem statement: The main goal behind this study is to identify whether banks are working at full efficiency or not and spot the changes in efficiency for banks operating in Lebanon after 2007 financial crisis. Approach: This study was conducted to examine the technical efficiency of 40 banks operating in Lebanon over the two sub-periods 2002-2006 and 2006-2009 using Data … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 Feb 2011 · 8,297 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Newton's Method with Diagonal Jacobian Approximation for Systems of Nonlinear EquationsM. Y. Waziri, W. J. Leong, M. A. Hassan, M. MonsiProblem statement: The major weaknesses of Newton method for nonlinear equations entail computation of Jacobian matrix and solving systems of n linear equations in each of the iterations. Approach: In some extent function derivatives are quit costly and Jacobian is computationally expensive which requires evaluation (storage) of n×n matrix in every iteration. Results: This storage requirement became unrealistic when n … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,538 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCreating and Developing a Service Network of Stage Costume Business in Isan CommunityOurarom Chantamala, Suphanni Luaboonchu, Terdchai PantachiProblem statement: A lot of stage costume businesses in Isan community (northeast community of Thailand) cannot expand their business into larger scales because the owners mange everything by themselves so it cause a lot of difficulties such as a lack of low cost stage costume sources. Approach: This research aimed to examine 3 points. First, to examine the background of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Depth Estimation System for Laboratory Studies using Video ImageryAlec Torres, Rodolfo SilvaA simple video-based system has been developed for depth estimation based on wave propagation characteristics. A numerical simulation of a long-crested monochromatic wave propagating over a beach with straight and parallel contours is used for testing the depth inversion system. An oblique video, simulating field conditions, is recorded, digitized and rectified for its further analysis. Pixel intensity time series from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Management of Effluents from Small Piggery Farms in MexicoJ.L. de Victorica-Almeida, M. Galván-García, R. Ayala-RuizIn Mexico, pig farming is the third most important livestock activity due to its contribution to the total meat production. However, it is estimated that around 38% of pig farms dispose their wastewaters without any treatment directly into the nation’s water bodies, which in turn has a severe impact in the environment. One reason for not treating is the high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,365 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome Aspects Related to DronesRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuDrones developed very quickly and today have come to conquer airspace even more than conventional aviation. Whether they are unmanned or with a crew, whether they are on autopilot, usually remotely coordinated, or remote-controlled or even manned, drones in their diversity today have taken on a very large scale and they will surely develop rapidly and further, being the ones … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2020 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Validation of a Mathematical Model of the Operation of a Hydraulic Ram Pump with a Springs SystemAndriamahefasoa Rajaonison, Hery Tiana RakotondramiaranaWater pumps, which usually require fuels or power, are for carrying water from water sources to a facility, generally a household or a farm in the countryside. The present study consists of conducting an experimental validation of a mathematical model that was developed in a previous work for simulating the functioning of a new form of the hydraulic ram pump, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 14 Jun 2020 · 7,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFree Particle Spin SpeedNicolae Petrescu, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe electron and the proton are stable particles, compounds of the atoms, which in turn are the macroscopic scale components. A heated metal plate becomes the source of a cloud of electrons, which by an acceleration in an electromagnetic field becomes an electron beam. Protons are obtained by ionized hydrogen atoms; as the mass of the electron is negligibly small … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 5 Jul 2019 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFuel Crisis vis-à-vis Green FuelSusmita KamilaThe real sense of crisis often leads to bring some changes for betterment of society. We are in an age, where every day we are facing the crisis of energy. Decisions on current energy as well as fuel crisis in right direction can bring about a better, more sustainable future for our planet. We have huge opportunities and scope for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2019 · 7,248 accessesView PDFCite
