Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIndustrial Wastewater Treatment Using Local Natural Soil in Abu Dhabi, U.A.EH. A. Tayim, A. H. Al-YazouriLocal soil from the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirate is investigated for its efficiency in removing heavy metals from industrial wastewater. Eight different industrial water effluents from different industries were treated. Pb, Zn, Fe, Cu and Mn were removed from industrial wastewaters yielding treated water with heavy metal concentrations well below the maximum limits enforced by environmental protection … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Plasmid in Production of Acetobacter Xylinum BiofilmsAbbas Rezaee, Sanaz Solimani, Mehdi ForozandemogadamAcetobacter xylinum has the ability to produce cellulotic biofilms. Bacterial cellulose is expected to be used in many industrial or biomedical materials for its unique characteristics. A. xylinum contains a complex system of plasmid DNA molecules. A 44 kilobases (kb) plasmid was isolated in wild type of A. xylinum. To improve the cellulose producing ability of A. xylinum, role of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring the Function Points for Migration Project: A Case StudyK. Mustafa, K. Gowthaman, R. A. KhanIn this study, we extend the study of Function Point Analysis (FPA) for the measurement of source code based migration project using the migration tooling options. FPA is an objective and structured technique to measure software size by quantifying its functionality provided to the user, based on the requirements and logical design. It is noticed that the procedure for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNelson and Plosser Revisited: Evidence from Fractional ARIMA ModelsGuglielmo Maria Caporale, Luis A. Gil-AlanaIn this study fractionally integrated ARIMA (ARFIMA) models are estimated using an extended version of Nelson and Plosser[1]’s data set. The analysis employs[11]’s maximum likelihood procedure. Such a parametric approach requires the model to be correctly specified in order for the estimates to be consistent. A model-selection procedure based on diagnostic tests on the residuals, together with several likelihood criteria, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of the Effect of Aspect Ratio on the Airfoil PerformanceM. Kopaç, M. Yılmaz, T. GültopThe effect of aspect ratio on the airfoil performance is investigated for airflow about axially symetric wings as a function of the angle of attack. The magnitudes of aerodynamic forces and moments on airfoils resulting from the incompressible viscous flow fields are determined experimentally. The TE54 wind tunnel used for the experiments is an open conduit and has a 300x300 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,682 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Growth Medium for Centella Asiatica Cell Culture Via Response Surface MethodologyRozita Omar, M. A. Abdullah, M. A. Hasan, M. MarziahThe effects of sucrose, Indole-3-Acetic Acid (IAA) and 6-BenzylAminoPurine (BAP) concentrations on cell growth of Centella asiatica cell suspension culture were studied. The concentrations were designed using Central-composite experimental design and regression analysis was carried out to obtain response surface model describing cell growth for prediction of optimum conditions. Only sucrose as a single factor was positively significant for cell … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 7,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDepth Estimation of 2-D Magnetic Anomalous Sources by Using Euler Deconvolution MethodM. G.E. Dawi, Liu Tianyou, Shi Hui, Luo DapengEuler deconvolution method is the method of depth estimation which is best suited for anomalies caused by isolating and multiple anomalous sources. In the present study, algorithmic programs based on generalizing linear inverse theory, uses a least square sense to solve for Euler’s equation is being written. The Euler technique that can estimate the location of a simple body from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInformation Provided by Accrual and Cash Flow Measures in Determining Firms’ Performance: Malaysian EvidenceNorita Mohd Nasir, Shamsul Nahar AbdullahAccrual and cash flow measures have been argued to be able to evaluate firms’ performance, although the results are inconclusive throughout countries and time. This study examined the accrual and cash flow measures independently and jointly among Malaysian firms. The study predicted that the low cash flow subgroups (high income to cash flow firms) would show better results in operating, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,327 accessesView PDFCite
