Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrengthening Conservation in the Tropics: The Water Canon of Costa RicaFrancisco Benavides, John N. VeenstraProblem statement: The tropics contain primary forests with a significant value for society, as they provide services such as carbon sequestration, soil conservation, bio-prospecting, water storage and others. Competing land uses have not favored conservation during the last several decades and therefore the need for an effective public policy instrument to curtail forest loss is evident. Approach: This article analyzed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 6,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNonlinear Behavior of Single Piles in Jacket Type Offshore Platforms Using Incremental Dynamic AnalysisMohammad Amin Assareh, Behrouz AsgarianThe operation for offshore oil has become an important issue in the recent years. Offshore platforms are some of those structures which are built to withstand environmental and accidental loads during oil exploitation operation. One of the most usual types of these platforms is the Jacket Type Offshore Platform (JTOP) which can be divided into three important parts, which are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 9,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPeople Participation, an Undeniable Necessity for Conserving Forest Areas of Arasbaran Region in IranSara Zare, Hossein Shabanali Fami, Manouchehr NamiranianThe issue of participation has recently become an interesting point for many national, regional and international institutions. Participation and collaboration of Iranians in the field of natural resources conservation has an old history. During a long period of time, vast areas of natural resources have been protected by the dwellers and indigenous users; we are witnessing deep land use changes … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,530 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Thermostable α-Amylase Producing Natural Variant of Bacillus spp. Isolated From Soil in IranIraj Rasooli, Shakiba D. A. Astaneh, Hojjat Borna, Kamal A. BarchiniThermophilic processes appear more stable, rapid and less expensive and facilitate reactant activity and product recovery. Amylases have a quarter of the world enzyme market and thermostable a-amylases possess extensive commercial applications. Since little work has been done on strain isolation, growth and enzyme yield optimization, the level of thermophilic enzyme production remains relatively low. Therefore, large scale exploitation of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConfigurable Multirate Filter BanksAli Al-HajMultimedia communications require efficient and real-time implementations of multirate digital signal processing systems. The backbone structures of multirate systems are digital multirate filter banks. Therefore, efficient multimedia communications rely, in the first place, on real-time implementations of multirate filter banks. In this paper, we describe a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) implementation of the analysis and synthesis filter banks which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProcessing of Aloe Vera Leaf Gel: A ReviewC.T. Ramachandra, P. Srinivasa RaoProper scientific investigations on Aloe vera have gained more attention over the last decade due to its reputable, medicinal, pharmaceutical and food properties. Some publications have appeared in reputable scientific journals that have made appreciable contributions to the discovery of the functions and utilizations of Aloe vera lacking processing of leaf gel. Present processing techniques aims at producing best quality … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 22,728 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving the Quality of Service Guarantee in an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) NetworkFrancis Joseph Ogwu, Mohammad Talib, Ganiyu Adesola AderounmuThis study presents a technique for improving the quality of service (QoS ) guarantee in an ATM network. In the proposed model, it was assumed that high priority traffic have been allocated a switch resource to guarantee a given QoS and low priority cells are allowed to enter the buffer, to improve the exploitation of reserved resources. The proposed technique … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 6,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegration of Voxel Colouring Technique in the Volumetric Textures Representation Based on Image LayersBabahenini M. Chaouki, Hemidi Djallel, Djedi NoureddineThis paper presents a method for integrating a technique of reconstruction scene (voxel colouring) starting from images of the reference element of a volumetric texture, this one will be converted in a second phase into a whole of layers (2D images considered as transparent textures), which will be projected and composed successively on surface defined as volumetric grid using the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 6,631 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Conceptual Design of the Concurrent Engineering Design System for Polymeric-Based Composite Automotive PedalsS. M. SapuanIn this study, a study of conceptual design for the polymeric-based composite automotive pedal box system is presented. This study describes the importance of the concurrent engineering technique in the total design activity. Several idea generation methods like the extension of the search space, the morphological chart, the exploitation of experiences, the gallery method and the voice of customer had … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,727 accessesView PDFCite
