Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesIncorporation of Bentazone with Exserohilum rostratum for Controlling Cyperus iriaFranklin Ragai Kundat, Loo Hong Shen, Osumanu Haruna AhmedProblem statement: Various methods are used to counter the population of Cyperus iria in rice fields and among the most common method are chemical approaches. Chemical control methods are preferred by rice farmers due to their efficacy, speed, ease of storage and affordable cost. The concern of chemical herbicides is on its effects on the environment. Less attention had been … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 5 Sep 2011 · 9,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAdaptive Linear Prediction Augmented Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Based Prediction for VBR Video TrafficT. Raghuveera, P. V.S. Kumar, K. S. EaswarakumarProblem statement: Network traffic prediction plays a vital role in the optimal resource allocation and management in computer networks. This study introduces an ARIMA based model augmented by Adaptive Linear Prediction (ALP) for the real time prediction of VBR video traffic. The synergy of the two can successfully address the challenges in traffic prediction such as accuracy in prediction, resource … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA System for Payroll ManagementPavitra Rani Gautam, Sugadev Ragumani, Y. K. SharmaProblem statement: This research had done the software design and database system model for Payroll Management System (PMS) in Defense Institute of Physiology and Allied Sciences (DIPAS). The calculations are based on the user provided employees details like basic pay, house rent allowance, loan details and so on. Based on these user inputs the system automatically generates pay slip, pay … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 30 Nov 2010 · 22,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Cross-sectional Study of Sexual Practices, Sexually Transmitted Infections and Human Immunodeficiency Virus among Male-to-Female Transgender PeopleP.S. Saravanamurthy, P. Rajendran, Priya Maria Miranda et al.Problem statement: Designing HIV interventions requires evidence on links between behaviors and elevated transmission risk that remains scanty for male-to-female Transgender (TG) people in India. Approach: In 2007, we carried out a cross-sectional study through convenience sampling of 131 TG aged > 18years, residing in Chennai at least prior to six months of the study. Sexual practices and perception towards … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesConfined High Strength Concrete Columns: An Experimental StudyJagannathan Saravanan, K. Suguna, P. N. RaghunathProblem statement: An experimental study on GFRP confined high strength concrete columns has been carried out with a view to evaluate its performances under uni-axial compression in terms of load and deformation capacity. Approach: High strength concrete columns strengthened with different configuration and stiffness of GFRP wraps were tested under axial compression until failure. Their response evaluated at different load … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEstimation of Earthquake-Induced Crest Settlements of EmbankmentsRaghvendra Singh, Debasis RoyProblem statement: Freeboard requirement, a major consideration in the design of embankment dams, is controlled to a great extent by the crest settlements during earthquakes. Approach: The parameters that influence earthquake induced crest settlement had been studied using 152 published case histories on performance of embankment dams during earthquakes. Results: Based on the results a correlation had been proposed for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,026 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStrengthening of Corrosion-Damaged Reinforced Concrete Beams with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer LaminatesA. Leema Rose, K. Suguna, P. N. RagunathProblem statement: This study showed the results of an experimental investigation on the strengthening of corrosion damaged reinforced concrete beams with unidirectional cloth glass fiber reinforced polymer (UDCGFRP) laminates. Approach: All the beam specimens 150×250×3000 mm were cast and tested for the present investigation. One beam specimen was neither corroded nor strengthened to serve as a reference. Two beams were … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStrength Modeling of High-Strength Concrete with Hybrid Fibre ReinforcementA. Ravichandran, K. Suguna, P. N. RagunathThe low tensile strength and limited ductility, the unavoidable deficiency, of concrete can be overcome by the addition of fibres. High strength concrete (HSC) of 60 MPa containing hybrid fibres, combination of steel and polyolefin fibres, at different volume fraction of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0% were compared in terms of compressive, splitting tensile strength and flexural properties with HSC … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesReliability of Axially Loaded Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer Confined Reinforced Concrete Circular ColumnsVenkatarman Nagaradjane, Pulipaka Narasimharao Raghunath, Kannan SugunaMonte-Carlo simulation based procedure was applied for assessing the reliability of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) confined reinforced concrete columns. Assessment of reliability provides a quantitative measure of effectiveness of repair. Problem Statement: The procedure presented in the paper could be used for assessing the reliability of reinforced concrete columns before and after the application of FRP wrap, thus helping to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRETRACTED: On the New Branch of Mathematical Science-Part 2M. Sivasubramanian, L. Senthilkumar, K. Raghul Kumar, S. KalimuthuThe fifth Euclidean postulate problem in geometry is 2300 years old. This postulate is also known as Euclid’s parallel postulate. The great mathematicians tried their best to deduce the fifth postulate from the other four postulates. But unfortunately nobody could succeed in this geometrical battle. The studies devoted to this problem led to the origin of two non-Euclidean geometries. The … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
