Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Pile- Soil Interaction Subjected to Lateral Loads in Layered SoilsA. Avaei, Abdoul R. Ghotbi, M. AryafarTo stabilize infrastructures such as tall buildings, bridges, etc., piles are used to resist lateral loads created from earth pressure, wind, waves and earthquake extensively. Pile design requires understanding of how the load is transferred from a pile to surrounding soil and vice versa. Pile properties, soil stress-strain behavior and pile-soil interaction play important roles in pile-response subjected to lateral … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSource Couple Logic (SCL): Theory and Physical DesignMohamed Azaga, Masuri OthmanThis study describes and presents the analysis for the Source-Coupled Logic (SCL) inverter as will as the effect of submicron layout parasitics. The SCL inverter circuit model and its operation is defined. The analysis for the SCL is carried from the point of view of input/output voltage characteristics and the effect of noise margin. The inverter gate delay model is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNonlinear Models and Experimental Investigation of Lifetime History of HSC Flexural BeamsK. Masti, A.A. Maghsoudi, R. RahgozarThe nature of fracture in high strength concrete is brittle and therefore, the investigation behavior of flexural high strength concrete (HSC) members is important. This paper describes the deflection, strain and energy ductility and the lifetime history of experimental and theoretical analysis of six caste reinforced HSC beams with different percentage of ρ and ρρ'. The beams were loaded incrementally … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Socio-Economic Factors Influencing Forest Dwellers' Participation in Reforestation and Development of Forest Areas (The Case Study of West Mazandaran, Iran)E. Faham, A. Rezvanfar, T. ShamekhiThe main purpose of this study was to investigate the links between forest dwellers’ participation in reforestation and development of forest areas in west Mazandaran of Iran and a set of socio-economic variables. The statistical population includes all forest dwellers living in villages, which locate in the west Mazandaran in Iran and had been covered by local forestry cooperative. A … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,765 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Assessment of Compressive Size Effect of Plane Concrete Using Combination of Micro-Plane Damage Based Model and 3D Finite Elements ApproachM. Labibzadeh, S. A. Sadrnejad, M. NaisipourIn recent years, the material behavior dependence of laboratory concrete specimens built with the same concrete mixture under the same load conditions to their geometrical sizes is well established. This phenomenon which is observed not only in concrete but also in most quasi-brittle materials such as rock, ceramic or composite materials is now called as size effect. Many of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModified Hill Cipher for a Large Block of Plaintext with Interlacing and IterationV. U.K. Sastry, N. R. ShankarIn this research, we have developed a large block cipher by modifying the Hill cipher. In this, we have introduced interlacing of the binary bits of the plaintext as the primary concept leading to confusion. This process is strengthened by using iteration. The cryptanalysis and avalanche effect mentioned in this research clearly exhibit the strength of the cipher. …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMINLP Optimization of Mechanical StructuresS. Šilih, T. Žula, Z. Kravanja, S. KravanjaWe presented optimization of mechanical structures, performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization approach. The MINLP is a combined continuous/discrete optimization technique, where a structural topology and standard/discrete sizes are optimized simultaneously with the continuous variables. Ddiscrete binary 0-1 variables were used to express the discrete decisions. For solution of this non-linear, continuous/discrete and non-convex MINLP class of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,129 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome Algorithms to Identify Rational Structures in Stochastic Processes with ExpectationsConcepción González-Concepción, María Candelaria Gil-Fariña, Celina Pestano-GabinoThis research was concerned with the identification of rational models in stochastic processes and we use the Padé-Laurent Approximation to identify a Transfer-Function Model with Expectations. We mention the T-table method and focus in studying the generalised epsilon-algorithm, emphasizing the main role of the statistical significance of their numerical entries. Empirical work is made for non-causal TF models using both … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,754 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Sophistication and Differentiated Emotions during Mathematical Problem SolvingBradford D. Allen, James CarifioGeorge Polya, author of Mathematical Discovery and the enduring best seller How to Solve It: A New Aspect of Mathematical Method, claims that more sophisticated people experience more differentiated emotion during mathematical problem solving, a claim that has been untested for nearly fifty years. Using instruments that measure ongoing evaluations and emotion in real time, and traits that reflect mathematical … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,579 accessesView PDFCite
