Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStudy of the Allelopathic Potential of Extracts of Azadirachta Indica (Neem)Zoheir Y. Ashrafi, Aptin Rahnavard, Sedigheh Sadeghi et al.The allelopathic potential of extracts of Azadirachta indica L., which is one of the most dominant weeds in tropical regions of South-west Asia, was investigated under laboratory conditions. The n-hexane-soluble, acetone-soluble and water-soluble fractions obtained from the acetone extract of A. indica shoots inhibited the germination and the growth of roots and shoots of six test plant species. The inhibitory … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,841 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordField Behavior of A High Anchored Reinforced Earth WallFaisal Hj Ali, Bujang B.K. Huat, Lee Chee HaiSince the invention of Reinforced Earth by the French architect Hendri Vidal in 1966, numerous reinforced soil walls have been designed and constructed all over the world. In this study the focus was on a particular type of reinforced wall called Nehemiah wall which differed from the Vidal type in the sense that instead of steel strips, the reinforcing elements … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExperimental Study of Near Wake Flow Behind a Rectangular CylinderAbdollah Shadaram, Mahdi Azimi Fard, Noorallah RostamyThe turbulence characteristics of the near wake flow behind a rectangular cylinder is investigated in a two-dimensional analysis using a hot-wire anemometer. The time-averaged and fluctuating components of the velocity are measured for a cylinder having various width-to-height (b h-1) ratios. The measurements are carried out in a low-speed wind tunnel. Data from hot-wire anemometer is collected by a data … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordImpairment of Retrograde Neuronal Transport in Cardiac Vagal Motoneurons in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats: A Wheat Ger Agglutinin-Horseradish Peroxidase Neurohistochemical studyA. Odekunle, C.M. PhillipsCentral projections of vagal motoneurons to the heart were studied in diabetic rats using Wheat germ Agglutinin-Horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP). Experimental rats were rendered diabetic by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin in citrate buffer. The diabetic rats were maintained in a stable diabetic state by daily injection of insulin for 24 weeks. Age-matched control rats were injected intraperitoneally with citrate buffer not … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAnalytical Solution of Temperature Field in Hollow Cylinder under Time Dependent Boundary Condition Using Fourier seriesGolamali atefi, Mohammad Ali Abdous, Abdolsaeid GanjehkaviriThe objective of this study is to derive an analytical solution of one dimensional heat conduction equation applied in a hollow cylinder, which is subjected to a periodic boundary condition at the outer surface while the inner surface is insulated. The material is assumed to be homogenous and isotropic with time-independent thermal properties. Because of the time-dependent term in the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Sensitivity Study of the Validation of Three Regulatory Dispersion ModelsKeith D. Harsham, Michael BennettLidar measurements were made of the dispersion of the plume from a coastal industrial plant over three weeks between September 1996 and May 1998, 67 experimental runs were obtained, mostly of 30 min duration, and these were analysed to provide plume parameters (i.e. height, vertical and lateral spreads). These measurements were supplemented by local meteorological measurements at two portable meteorological … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,714 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Chili (Capsicum annuum)Shairul Rizdiyandi Omar, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidInduced mutation by gamma irradiation has been found to be a very useful technique for crop improvement. Apart from this, the proper use of induced mutation in plant breeding has become a profitable approach. This investigation was carried out to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma rays on germination, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 9,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Influence of the Climatic Factors on the Decay of Marbles: an Experimental StudyPaola Marini, Rossana BellopedeStone decay is affected by the influence of climatic factors. In particular marble degradation, that could be expressed by decohesion and /or bowing, is mainly due to the action of temperature and water (rains and relative humidity). In this work non destructive and destructive tests have been performed to evaluate the decay of marble slabs subjected both to natural exposition … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordChaotic Attitude Tumbling of Satellite in Magnetic FieldRashmi Bhardwaj, Parsan KaurIn this study, the half width of the chaotic separatrix has been estimated by chrikov's criterion. Through surface of section method, it has been observed that the magnetic torque parameter, the eccentricity of the orbit and the mass distribution parameter play an important in changing the regular motion into chaotic one. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Real-time Image Processing with a Compact FPGA-based ArchitectureRidha Djemal, Didier Demigny, Rached TourkiThis study have presented a filed programmable gate array implementation of a real time video smoothing algorithm. In comparison with smoothing video techniques like deblocking filters in H.264 or smoothing in JPEG2000, the proposed method is implemented in hardware and its computational cost and complexity are reduced where all pixel processing related to uncompressed video is done on the fly. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,001 accessesView PDFCite
