Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydraulic Flow through Engineering Bentonite-Based Containment BarriersEric Wooi Kee Loh, Devapriya Chitral WijeyesekeraThis paper presents the use of software modelling as a tool to study the impact of hydraulic "resistivity" on the contaminant transport through bentonite-based containment barriers. A sensitivity analysis on the predicted data was carried out by varying the boundary conditions as well as the hydraulic resistance to flow through varying contaminant transport parameters. Accordingly, both advective and diffusive flow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 4 Nov 2015 · 6,703 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAre we Able to Harness the Immunomodulatory Power of Cytokines for Novel Autoimmune Disease Treatments?Giuseppe Nocentini, Graziella Migliorati, Carlo RiccardiSince the end of the 1970s, interleukin 2 (IL-2) has been known as a key player in T cell expansion/activation (Watson et al., 1980). In the late 1980s, some groups used IL-2 to stimulate the immune systems of tumour patients (Jacobs et al., 1986). The idea seemed brilliant and several attempts were made, but the results were disappointing (Lim et … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Oct 2015 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Methodological Framework for Software Safety in Safety Critical Computer SystemsP. V. Srinivas Acharyulu, P. SeetharamaiahSoftware safety must deal with the principles of safety management, safety engineering and software engineering for developing safety-critical computer systems, with the target of making the system safe, risk-free and fail-safe in addition to provide a clarified differentaition for assessing and evaluating the risk, with the principles of software risk management. Problem statement: Prevailing software quality models, standards were not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 16 Aug 2012 · 7,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopmental Design of Anaerobic Wetland System for Mining Waste Water TreatmentMuhammad Aqeel Ashraf, Mohd. Jamil Maah, Ismail YusoffProblem statement: Tin mining is one of the oldest industries in Malaysia that have started since 1820s. These mining activities have resulted in about 13,700 hectors of tin tailings throughout the peninsula. These tailings have created numerous environmental problems such as threat to natural reserves due to landscape changes, damage to natural drainage, pollution and destruction of natural habitats. Approach: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,509 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico Analysis of Envelope Dengue Virus-2 and Envelope Dengue Virus-3 Protein as the Backbone of Dengue Virus Tetravalent Vaccine by Using Homology Modeling MethodUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Arli Aditya Parikesit, Hendra et al.Problem statement: Dengue fever, which was caused by Dengue virus infection, had became a major public health problem in the tropic and subtropical countries. Dengue virus (DENV) had four serotypes (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4), based on their immunogenic in the human body. Preventive measure will be necessary to decrease the prevalence of dengue fever, by developing modern vaccine. Approach: … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 3 Sep 2010 · 9,265 accessesView PDFCite
