Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Effects of Moisture Content and Loading Orientation on Some Physical and Mechanical Properties of Tiger NutLong Wang, Can Hu, Wensong Guo et al.The physical and mechanical properties of the newly “Zhongyousha No.1” and the traditional “Yousha” Chinese tiger nut varieties are studied. Several physical and mechanical properties of the two tiger nut varieties were determined as a function of moisture content (at five levels of 40.0, 32.0, 24.0, 16.0 and 8.0% wet basis). The physical and mechanical properties including length, width, thickness, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2021 · 6,592 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Corrosion Damage on the Ductility Performance of Concrete ColumnsJ. Revathy, K. Suguna, Juan Eduardo Suarez RivadeneiraProblem statement: An experimental investigation was carried out on reinforced concrete columns with corroding reinforcement to assess the residual strength and ductility performance of columns. Approach: An accelerated corrosion regime of different degrees of corrosion damage of 10 and 25% were induced in the steel reinforcement of concrete columns. The columns were then tested under uni-axial compression until failure. Results: … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,895 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordColored Digital Image Watermarking using the Wavelet TechniqueMohammed F. Al-Hunaity, Salam A. Najim, Ibrahiem M. El-EmaryWith the revolution of information technology and Wide Area Networking, data has become less and less private where the access of media as well as the attempts to change and manipulate the contents of media data have become a common case. For that, we need to use a watermarking technique to protect the copyright of the media as well as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,666 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEnvironmental Assessment of a Diesel Engine Under Variable Stroke Length and Constant Compression RatioJehad A.A. Yamin, Eyad S.M. Abu-NamehIn the light of the energy crisis and the stringent environmental regulations, diesel engines are offering good hope for automotive vehicles. However, lot of work is needed to reduce the diesel exhaust emissions and give the way for full utilization of the diesel fuel's excellent characteristics. This paper presents a theoretical study on the effect of variable stroke length technique … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,736 accessesView PDF Cite

Gowri, C. G. SaravananThe main objective of this study is to analyze the different ratio of emulsified fuels on the performance, emission and combustion characteristics of four stroke single cylinder kirloskar TV-I direct injection compression ignition engine and compared with diesel fuel under different engine loads with constant engine speed of 1500 rpm. Four kinds of test fuels were prepared namely 80% diesel, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2014 · 7,347 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAnalysis of Blood Turbulent Flow in Carotid Artery Including the Effects of Mural Thrombosis Using Finite Element ModelingM. Arab-Ghanbari, M. M. Khani, A. Arefmanesh, F. Tabatabai-GhomsheArterial thrombosis is an extremely significant health problem. As a result of numerous factors involved in such problem, describing the role of hemodynamics in thrombogenesis has been asserted to be one of the most demanding and complicated challenges in biomechanics. An axisymmetric model considering fluid-structure interactions (FSI) was introduced and numerically solved for an artery with a thrombosis to perform … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,411 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA New Compressing Ultrasonic Data Algorithm Based on WaveletsMounir Hergli, Jamel Baili, Faouzi Bouslama, Kamel BesbesIn this paper, we propose a novel and effective algorithm for compressing large volumes of data recorded in underwater applications, using a laboratory designed experimental setup. This data represents samples of ultrasonic signals acquired at different geometric positions of a water tank. The proposed algorithm was based on Wavelets and consists of two processing phases including a prefiltering stage using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,002 accessesView PDF Cite
