Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Anaerobic Fermentation of Simple Sugars by Yeast Fuels Resistance Candida spp. Infections to Eradication by DrugsNedosa Ikenna Valentine, Utoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Dan Danjuma et al.Problem statement: Human systemic Candida infections had proved difficult to eradicate by the medical health care system. Some practitioners and scholars see the problem as being due to drug resistance. For example an author wrote that ‘secondary drug resistance is clearly being encountered in one setting, oropharyngeal candidiasis in patients with advanced Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection usually … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 10 Dec 2011 · 7,840 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPositron Annihilation Study on Nickel and Iron Nano-Particles in Natural Rubber CompositesEmad Hassan AlyProblem statement: The effect of Ni and Fe nano-particles as a filler on the free volume properties Of Natural Rubber (NR) was studied using Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS). Approach: The PAL measurements revealed that the free volume properties are strongly affected by the amount and type of filler. Results: Particularly speaking, the free volume fraction dramatically decreased by increasing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,631 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Parametric Deduction for Material Removal Rate OptimizationTian-Syung LanProblem statement: A general optimization scheme without equipment operations for CNC (computer numerical control) finish turning is deemed to be necessarily developed. Approach: In this study, four parameters (cutting depth, feed rate, speed, tool nose runoff) with three levels (low, medium, high) were considered to optimize the Material Removal Rate (MRR) based on L9(34) orthogonal array. Twenty-seven fuzzy control rules … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,243 accessesView PDFCite

Study to further enhance the properties of this new concrete is continuing. Approach: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of exposing Very High Strength Concrete (VHSC) specimens to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2011 · 8,823 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParametric Deduction Optimization for Surface RoughnessTian-Syung LanProblem statement: Surface roughness is a major consideration in modern Computer Numerical Control (CNC) turning industry. Most existing optimization researches for CNC finish turning were either accomplished within certain manufacturing circumstances, or achieved through numerous equipment operations. Therefore, a general deduction optimization scheme is deemed to be necessary for the industry. Approach: In this study, four parameters (cutting depth, feed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,442 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Total Ionizing Dose on Bipolar Junction TransistorChee Fuei Pien, Haider F. Abdul Amir, Saafie Salleh, Azali MuhammadProblem statement: The amount of ionizing radiation that Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) devices encounter during their lifecycle degrades both of their functional and electrical parameter performances. The different radiation environments either in space, high energy physics experiments, nuclear environment or fabrication process as well as for standard terrestrial operation possess an impact on the devices. Approach: In this research, analytical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Solution of Second-Order Linear Fredholm Integro-Differential Equation Using Generalized Minimal Residual MethodElayaraja Aruchunan, Jumat SulaimanProblem statement: This research purposely brought up to solve complicated equations such as partial differential equations, integral equations, Integro-Differential Equations (IDE), stochastic equations and others. Many physical phenomena contain mathematical formulations such integro-differential equations which are arise in fluid dynamics, biological models and chemical kinetics. In fact, several formulations and numerical solutions of the linear Fredholm integro-differential equation of second … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,202 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnt Diversity in a Sugarcane Culture without the Use of Straw Burning in Southeast, Sao Paulo, BrazilDébora Rodrigues De Souza, Erich Stingel, Luiz Carlos de Almeida et al.Problem statement: One of the current requirements of agroecosystem management is the maintenance of biodiversity. Manual sugarcane harvesting with the previous burning of straw has been gradually replaced by mechanical harvesting in Brazil. However, the diversity of Formicidae, which can be a natural pest controller, has not been studied in this new system yet. Approach: This study was carried out … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Aerosol Particle Size at High Polluted Region in the World Using Direct Solar Radiation Measurements: Helwan as a Case RegionU. Ali RahomaProblem statement: Particle counting and sizing of atmospheric aerosols by electro-optical methods are complex and absolute interpretation of measurements is difficult, so, the scattered light varies in a complicated manner with the system of optics as well as with the size and physical characteristics of particles. Approach: The estimation of the air aerosol number concentration variation was carried out in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 8 May 2010 · 6,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving the State Assignment Problem Using Stochastic Search Aided with Simulated AnnealingWalid M. AlyProblem statement: Solving the state assignment problem means finding the optimum assignment for each state within a sequential digital circuit. These optimum assignments will result in decreasing the hardware realization cost and increasing the reliability of the digital circuit. Unfortunately, the state assignment problem belongs to the class of nondeterministic polynomial time problems (NP complete) which requires heavy computations.
