Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Inverse Kinematics of the Plane System 2-3 in a Mechatronic MP2R System, by a Trigonometric MethodRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.Robots have penetrated today in almost all industrial fields, being much more precise than humans in the execution of operations, but also faster, more dynamic, more stable and more resilient, working 24 h of the 24 h possible, in any season, breaks, holidays, vacations and especially without getting sick. The most important fact is that they can also perform special … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 20 Dec 2017 · 7,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegumming of Raw Silk Fabric with Help of Marine Extracellular ProteaseDas Sumana, Mathummal Sudarshan, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon RayChaudhuriProtease secreting microbe was isolated and characterized on the basis of their morphological, biochemical, physiological and 16S rDNA based molecular properties. The extracellular protease was quantified and characterized. Protease was used for different time (4, 8, 12 and 24 h) at different temperature (RT and 37°C) for optimization of the degumming process for raw silk fabric with enzyme dosage (0.2-1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Recycled and Waste Materials in Various Construction ApplicationsJohnny Bolden, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie FiniMore production equals more waste, more waste creates environmental concerns of toxic threat. An economical viable solution to this problem should include utilization of waste materials for new products which in turn minimize the heavy burden on the nation’s landfills. Recycling of waste construction materials saves natural resources, saves energy, reduces solid waste, reduces air and water pollutants and reduces … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2013 · 24,574 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToxicity of Industrial Wastewater Acting Singly or in Joint-Ratios on Clarias gariepinusAina Olubukola Adeogun, Azubuike Victor ChukwukaFreshwater ecosystems were the most vulnerable to pollution due to their easy accessibility for disposal of wastewaters leading to deterioration of water quality. Ona river, Ibadan, Nigeria is part of a dense network of inland watercourses emptying into the Lagos lagoon and receives industrial effluents from a food and beverage industry. The single and joint-action toxicity of effluents from these … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Jun 2012 · 7,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPurification of Natural Gas with Impurities using Membrane Processes: Parameter EstimationN. W. Jusoh, K. K. Lau, A. M. ShariffProblem statement: Membrane processes have received a significantly high attention on natural gas separation processes since this technology provides higher operating and cost advantages as compared to other technologies. One of the major problems related to natural gas separation using membrane is the existence of feed impurities including CO2, heavy hydrocarbon and water. Approach: Hence, mathematical model that is able … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 22 May 2012 · 8,432 accessesView PDFCite
