Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNon Destructive Tests of Structural Bonds by Guided Ultrasonic Waves: Effect of a Surface Pretreatment or a Localized DefectValentina Vlasie, Martine RousseauThe aim of this study was to propose a non destructive method to test the mechanical quality of a bond aluminium/epoxy/aluminium. Thus, for each aluminium/epoxy interface, an intermediate interface modelling between a simple geometrical interface and an interphase (3D material medium), i.e. a 2D material medium. In order to describe the surface stresses, we introduce the surface free energy (the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adaptive Modulation Scaling Scheme for Quality of Services Ensurance in Wireless Sensor NetwoksYong Yuan, Zongkai Yang, Jianhua HeEnergy consumption has been a key concern of data gathering in wireless sensor networks. Previous research works show that modulation scaling is an efficient technique to reduce energy consumption. However, such technique will also impact on both packet delivery latency and packet loss, therefore, may result in adverse effects on the qualities of applications. In this study, the problem of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Data Transmission in Multimedia NetworksManimegalai Parry, N. GangatharanThis study suggests a method where the packet size of each source is adjusted according to the network bandwidth. A controller is used to trace the data transmission rate at the router. An algorithm is developed and coded in Tool Command Language. Simulation is performed on NS-2 using 4 different test cases and the results show that the proposed algorithm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpectrofluorimetric, Atomic Absorption Spectrometric and Spectrophotometric Determination of Some FluoroquinolonesHesham SalemSimple, accurate, sensitive and selective spectrofluorimetric, atomic absorption spectrometric and spectrophotometric methods are described for the quantitative determination of ten fluoroquinolones (amifloxacin, ciprofloxacin hydrochloride, difloxacin hydrochloride, enoxacin, enrofloxacin, lomefloxacin hydrochloride, levofloxacin, norfloxacin, ofloxacin and pefloxacin mesylate). The first method was a spectrofluorimetric method in which samples of the studied drugs in 0.1 N H2SO4 showed native fluorescence at 450 nm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,320 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDecline of Betula ermanii with Special Reference to Ozone Concentration at Mt. Mae-Shirane, Oku-Nikko, JapanY. W. Feng, N. Ohta, H. ShimizuDuring June to October 2000 and 2001 we measured the height, Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) and stand density of Betula ermanii trees at Mt. Mae-Shirane, Japan and the ozone concentration there to explore the relationship between ozone concentration and the decline of B. ermanii trees on the mountain. Height, DBH and stem volume were lower on the southeast-facing slope … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Current Sensor for IDDQ Testing of CMOS ICMohd Liakot Ali, Nurul Huda KhamisThis study presents the design of an off-chip current sensor for IDDQ testing of CMOS (Complementary Metal-oxide Semiconductor) ICs (integrated circuit). It provides a linear voltage signal of IDDQ current with a conversion factor of 5 mV/μA without any amplification. A voltage-controlled switch is used to bypass the transient current peaks. It has also been shown that the sensor is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation into the Use of the Least Significant Bit Substitution Technique in Digital WatermarkingKevin Curran, Xuelong Xi, Roisin ClarkeDigital imaging companies lose revenue each year to people who are illegally copying and using their images. One prevention mechanism is to digitally encode images making it difficult for others to copy. This could be done using digital fingerprinting or simply adding a visible watermark. The information is hidden in a way that should not attract attention, but make it … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,471 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistribution Network Planning and Design Using Branch and Bound MethodsJalal AbdallahThis study presents implementation of the bound and branch methods as an optimization mathematical device for distribution network planning. A development technology concentrates on minimizing the total costs and provides extended opportunities for improvement of network operation, from the initial planning stage. The study illustrate the mathematical and the algorithm of the branch and bound method with an example to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of a New, Rapid, Amperometric Immunosensor for the Detection of Low Concentrations of Bacteria Part II: Optimization of the System for Escherichia coliEric Carnes, Ebtisam WilkinsThe optimization of a flow-through immunoassay system was conducted to achieve rapid detection of low concentrations of E. coli bacteria. The system includes a new immunosensor that uses newly developed, disposable immunofiltration membranes to yield a system that is sensitive as well as simple. Comparison of the performance of this system with conventional immunoassays demonstrated a significantly shorter time for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,783 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMaterno-Foetal Transmission of Murine Toxoplasmosis after Oral InfectionJamal Hafid, Bahrie Bellete, Pierre Flori et al.The effect of maternofoetal transmission of T. gondii as measured by the mortality rate in the mother, the foetus and the neonate were studied in the mouse model OF1. Ninety six female mice divided into two groups of 48 were infected with the Prugniaud strain before or after mating. When the time of mating was near the day of infection … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2005 · 7,213 accessesView PDFCite
