Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConformal Mapping of Temperature Variation in Compost HeapJonah Chukwuemeka Agunwamba, Oji Achuka NwokeLaboratory in vessel trapezoidal compost system was designed and constructed. Temperature variation in the compost heap was measured for five days at various depths. Mathematical model for the variation of temperature of the composting process was developed using Conformal Mapping Technique. One of the parameters in the model had two distinct roots, one a positive root and the other negative … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 17 Jun 2016 · 7,347 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Collisions to Improve Pollard's Rho Method of Solving the Discrete Logarithm Problem on Elliptic CurvesAmmar Ali NeamahIt is true that different approaches have been utilised to accelerate the computation of discrete logarithm problem on elliptic curves with Pollard's Rho method. However, trapping in cycles fruitless will be obtained by using the random walks with Pollard's Rho. An efficient alternative approach that is based on new collisions which are reliant on the values ai, bi to solve … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,340 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentifying Nutrient Contributors in North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater RiversNarayan B. Rajbhandari, Sushama Pradhan, Mauro Di Luzio et al.The goal of this study was to assess potential nitrogen and phosphorus contribution from point sources and non-point sources in North East Cape Fear River (NECFR) watershed in North Carolina. A watershed scale hydrologic model, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), was used to quantify Total Nitrogen (TN) and Total Phosphorus (TP) loadings to North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater Rivers. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2015 · 7,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Cenozoic Erosion Amount Using Monte Carlo Type-Petroleum Systems Modeling of the Hammerfest Basin, Western Barents SeaKrzysztof Jan Zieba, Matthias Daszinnies, Benjamin Emmel et al.The Cenozoic uplift and erosion is often believed to be a major risk factor in hydrocarbon exploration in the Barents Sea causing petroleum redistribution and leakage from filled traps. Therefore, the estimation of erosion amount is an important but often underrepresented task in the basin modeling procedure. The assessment of erosion magnitudes and spatial distribution by geochemical and thermo chronological … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2015 · 8,318 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Role of Migratory Quail in Spreading of Some Zoonotic Pathogens in EgyptAhmed I. Youssef, Dalia H. MansourThis study aimed to illustrate the potential role of wild migratory quails in the epidemiology of some zoonotic pathogens in Egypt. Ninety four apparently healthy migratory quails were collected from public markets after being trapped during hunting season from the North Sinai. Oral, cloaca and organs (liver, lung and heart) swabs were collected for bacteriological and viral examination. Bacteriological examination … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2014 · 7,530 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractNanotechnology: Engineering Materials for a Better 21st CenturyMeng Qiao, Xiyun Liu, Lei ZhangToday, we are living in the midst of a technological revolution, where nanotechnology is demonstrating a greater commitment to make people’s everyday lives better. The aim of nanotechnology is to create new materials with desired properties by engineering their nanoscale structures and components. One of the most important impacts of nanotechnology is in medical diagnosis and treatment.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMODELING THE UNIVERSE AS A QUANTUM WELLMichael Harney, Julie SealBy modeling the Universe as a quantum well for standing waves and solving Schrodinger’s equation for a particle trapped in this well, the solutions for the allowable rest-energies of all particles in the Universe are obtained, from the mass of the photon up to the mass of the Universe. The quantum numbers that predict the allowable rest-energies of all particles … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2014 · 8,241 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Pharmacological Targets Combining Docking and Molecular Dynamics SimulationsIlizaliturri-Flores Ian, Rosas-Trigueros Jorge Luis, Carrillo-Vazquez Jonathan Pablo et al.Studies that include both experimental data and computational simulations (in silico) have increased in number because the techniques are complementary. In silico methodologies are currently an essential component of drug design; moreover, identification and optimization of the best ligand based on the structures of biomolecules are common scientific challenges. Geometric structural properties of biomolecules explain their behavior and interactions and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2013 · 8,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model Predicting the Critical Heat Flux of Nuclear ReactorsChien-Hsiung Lee, Lih-Wu Hourng, Kuo-Wei LinBoiling heat transfer system keeps a nuclear power plant safe without getting over-heated. Crisis will occur if the dissipated heat flux exceeds the critical heat flux value. This study assumes the flow boiling system at high heat flux is characterized by the existence of a very thin liquid layer, known as the &#34sublayer&#34, which is trapped between the heated surface … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 12 Dec 2012 · 7,695 accessesView PDFCite
