Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Role of CO2 Emission in Energy Demand and SupplyMd. Azizul Bari, Joy Jacqueline Pereira, Rawshan Ara Begum et al.Problem statement: During the last few years in Malaysia, the amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere has been rising extensively. The main source of CO2 is power source of automobile and industry that are contributing the main role for these CO2 emissions. But these sectors are also very important for economic growth and developments. The aim of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 22 Feb 2012 · 7,063 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSilicone Modeling of the Interior Spaces of Hollow Organs: Use in Dog and Manatee Respiratory Tract and in a Beef HeartCharles J. Grossman, Richard Hamilton, Lisa A. Close-Jacob et al.Problem statement: The mechanism, by which the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris) vocalizes, remains unknown because the manatee larynx does not contain true vocal cords. Since sound can be generated when air passes through a narrow respiratory structure we needed to visualize the internal anatomy of manatee respiratory tract to locate any candidate regions for study. Approach: To visualize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2011 · 7,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesKinetic Optimization of Folic Acid Polymer Conjugates for Drug TargetingJacob M. Ngoy, Sunny E. Iyuke, Clarence S. Yah, Wilhelm E. NeuseProblem statement: Folic Acid (FA) is an essential, bioavailable water soluble B-complex vitamin that helps in the replication of normal cells. It is obtained from natural sources and it deficiency can leads to oncogenic cells development. Within this frame work in mind, we designed and synthesized a new bioconjugate carrier that can enhance the effectiveness of FA. Approach: The polymeric … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesClimate Change and its Implications to National SecurityMamunur Rashid, Joy Jacqueline Pereir, Rawshan Ara Begum et al.Problem statement: Climate change is increasingly one of the most serious national security threats which will have significant impacts on natural and coastal resources, ecosystem, human health and settlements, thereby affecting human wellbeing. At the same time, it is likely to influence of large scale human migration, economic and social depression over scarce natural resources and political systems necessary involve … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 8,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMalaria and Climate Change: Discussion on Economic ImpactsMd. Shahin Mia, Rawshan Ara Begum, Ah-Choy Er et al.Problem statement: Climate change is a global environmental change that is adversely affecting human health by causing various health impacts in countries throughout the world. Climate is the most influential driving force of vector-borne diseases such as malaria. Changes in climate factors substantially affect reproduction, development, distribution and seasonal transmissions of malaria. Climate change increases the outbreak of malaria which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 6,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Zero-Stable Optimal Order Method for Direct Solution of Second Order Differential EquationsKayode Sunday JacobProblem statement: In this study, a numerical method for direct solution of general second order differential equations was considered in order to circumvent the problems of computational burden and computer time wastage associated with method of reduction to system of first order equations. The issue of zero stability of higher order methods is considered in the development of the method. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,071 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSugarcane Response to Water-Deficit Stress during Early Growth on Organic and Sand SoilsDuli Zhao, Barry Glaz, Jack C. ComstockProblem statement: Approximately 20% of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is grown on sand soils in south Florida, USA. Sugarcane yields in the region linearly increased in last 33 years on organic (muck) soils, but not on sand soils. Water deficit during the formative growth phase on sand soils probably limits sugarcane yields. Approach: A greenhouse study was conducted in 2009 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 10,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesWaste Generation and Recycling: Comparison of Conventional and Industrialized Building SystemsRawshan Ara Begum, Siti Khadijah Satari, Joy Jacqueline PereiraProblem statement: In the Malaysian construction industry, there is a pressing issue of minimizing construction waste, which cause significant impacts on the environment. With the increasing demand for major infrastructure projects, commercial buildings and housing development programmers, a large amount of construction waste is being produced. Adoption of prefabrication and industrialized building systems is now a priority in the industry … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesWellbore Surveying While Drilling Based on Kalman FilteringMahmoud ElGizawy, Aboelmagd Noureldin, Jacques Georgy et al.Problem statement: Oil and gas are global fuels obtained primarily from drilling wells in underground terrestrial reservoirs. Vertical drilling is preferred because of its simplicity and therefore low cost, but subsurface targets can often be procured only by directing the wellbore along predefined non-vertical trajectories. For instance, directional drilling must be employed to reach locations inaccessible to the drilling rig, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOral Administration of Gelatin Hydrolysate Reduces Clinical Signs of Canine Osteoarthritis in a Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled TrialA.C. Beynen, H.W. Van Geene, H.V. Grim et al.Problem statement: There are indications that the intake of gelatin hydrolysate has a beneficial impact on the clinical signs of osteoarthritis in dogs. Data from a controlled trial were required to substantiate these indications. Approach: A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with privately owned dogs was carried out to assess the efficacy of a preparation of gelatin hydrolysate in the treatment of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 18,260 accessesView PDFCite
