Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Applicability of Landslide Databases for Hazard Management Using Objective and Subjective Models: Australian Geoinformatic CaseM. OwneghProblem statement: In order to assess the applicability of Australian landslide databases as a hazard management support system, current hard and soft literature and data sources were screened. This assessment resulted in the selection of four main data bases including national landslide database (A), Peril Aus ІІ (B), the Cities project (C) and analytical study of Fell (D). Approach: In … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 10,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPullout Characterizations of Various Steel Fibers Embedded in Very High-Strength ConcreteSameer Hamoush, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Toney Cummins, Brian ZornigProblem statement: There is a real need for a fundamental understanding of bond and bond mechanisms in the newly developed Very-High-Strength-Concrete (VHSC) materials. The interfacial steel fiber/VHSC matrix bond tests are needed to characterize VHSC and to aid in the development of analytical models that describe bond behavior of this new material. Approach: This research investigated bond-slip characteristics of four … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Maintenance Performance of the Semiconductor Factories Based on the Analytical Hierarchy Process and Grey Relational AnalysisFei-Long Chen, Yun-Chin ChenProblem statement: Maintenance is an important factor in semiconductor factories, not only because of costs and the need for the uninterrupted operation of semiconductor equipment, but also the time and expense required for maintenance. If maintenance procedures are not performed properly, the equipment will have low efficiency or break down, production capacity will decrease and the company will incur extra … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReflectivity of Reflectarrays Based on Dielectric SubstratesM. Y. Ismail, M. Inam, A. M.A. ZaidiProblem statement: Reflectarrays provide a low cost and low profile solution for antennas required for high gain applications but their use is restricted in some applications due to the narrow bandwidth and high loss performance. These performance limitations can be attributed to different sources of reflectivity of the reflectarrays. This work provides a thorough investigation on the reflectivity performance of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,635 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of 7-E, KWL and Conventional Instruction on Analytical Thinking, Learning Achievement and Attitudes toward Chemistry LearningRungrawee Siribunnam, Sombat TayraukhamProblem statement: The purposes of this research were to compare in analytical thinking, science learning achievement and attitudes toward chemistry learning of Matthayomsuksa 5 students who learned using the 7-E learning cycle, KWL learning method and conventional approach. Approach: The sample consisted of 154 Matthayomsuksa 5 students attending in the first semester of the academic year 2008, Phayakkhaphumwitthayakhan School, Phayakkhaphumphisai … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 9,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEngineering of Ground for Liquefaction Mitigation Using Granular Columnar Inclusions: Recent DevelopmentsA. Murali Krishna, M.R. MadhavProblem statement: Liquefaction was the most hazardous damage during an earthquake. Ground improvement techniques were employed to mitigate liquefaction hazards. Most common methods to improve engineering properties of soils are densification, reinforcement, grouting/mixing and drainage. Among various remedial measures available, installation of columnar granular inclusions is the most widely adopted method for liquefaction mitigation. Approach: Columnar granular inclusions function as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency of Differential Transformation Method for Genesio SystemJafar Husni AhmadProblem statement: In this study, a continuous solution for Genesio system was considered using Differential Transformation Method (DTM). Approach: Numerical results were compared to those obtained by the Runge-Kutta method to evaluate the performance of the suggested method. Results: The accuracy of the DTM was tested as the chaotic Genesio system. Conclusion/Recommendations: It was shown that the DTM was robust, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Fracture Toughness of the Concrete Mortars Exposed to Elevated TemperaturesS. Djaknoun, A. Ahmed Benyahia, E. OuedraogoThe main objective of this research was the characterisation of the fracture toughness of concrete mortars exposed to high temperatures by using notched specimens in three point bending tests. The specimens have different lengths and were heated at different temperatures ranging from room temperature up to 900°C. The experimental test results obtained are closed with those reported by the literature, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 6,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Certain Tetracyclines and Oxytetracyclines through Charge Transfer ComplexationKhairi M.S. FahelelbomProblem statement: Several studies were carried out to develop and validate a simple, rapid and accurate spectrophotometric method for the analysis of tetracycline (TC) and oxytetracycline (OTC) in the pure form and in pharmaceutical dosage forms, despite the varieties of these analytical techniques, the literature revealed that no spectrophotometric method for determination of tetracycline and oxytetracycline using charge transfer complexation … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Convective Heat-Transfer Coefficient in a Buried ExchangerTaoufik Mnasri, Rached Ben Younès, Maher Raddaoui, Salem ElouraginiThis study presents analytical models allowing to study a forced convection laminar flow in non-established dynamic and thermic regimes. We treated a flow in a bitubular exchanger in permanent thermal contact with a semi-infinite medium, such as the ground. The wall temperature as well as the wall heat flux evolve in the course of time until a quasi-steady mode.
