Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element and Experimental Serviceability Analysis of HSC Beams Strengthened with FRP SheetsSeyed Hamid Hashemi, Reza Rahgozar, Ali Akbar MaghsoudiThe use of externally bonded composite sheets or laminates is by now a diffuse technique to strengthen existing RC structures. However, some aspects of flexural condition still need experimental and numerical analysis; furthermore, especially for serviceability checks, there is a lack of code provisions. Six reinforced high strength concrete (HSC) beams strengthened with FRP sheets were fabricated and tested, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Dynamic Object Fragmentation and Replication Algorithm In Distributed Database SystemsAzzam Sleit, Wesam AlMobaideen, Samih Al-Areqi, Abdulaziz YahyaThis paper proposes an enhancement for the ADRW algorithm to achieve dynamic fragmentation and object allocation in distributed databases. The algorithm adapts to the changing patterns of object requests with the objective to dynamically adjust the allocation schemes of objects in order to minimize the total servicing cost of all requests. Objects may be replicated or fragmented depending on patterns … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 7,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Genotoxic Activity of Para-nitrophenol in Higher Plant Using Arbitrarily Primed- polymerase Chain Reaction (AP-PCR)Mohamed R. EnanParanitrophenol is a common toxic environmental pollutant; the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the DNA fingerprinting by AP-PCR assay to detect the DNA damage in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) exposed to different concentrations of paranitrophenol (4.0-720 nM). The changes occurring in the fingerprint patterns were likely to be the result of paranitrophenol-induced DNA damage. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPathophysiology of Adipocyte Defects and Dyslipidemia in HIV Lipodystrophy: New Evidence from Metabolic and Molecular StudiesAshok Balasubramanyam, Rajagopal V. Sekhar, Farook Jahoor et al.Despite a burgeoning mass of descriptive information regarding the epidemiology, clinical features, body composition changes, hormonal alterations and dyslipidemic patterns in patients with HIV lipodystrophy syndrome (HLS), the specific biochemical pathways that are dysregulated in the condition and the molecular mechanisms that lead to their dysfunction, remain relatively unexplored. In this paper, we review studies that detail the metabolic basis … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecreational Viagra Use and Sexual Risk among Drug Abusing MenDennis G. Fisher, Robert Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg et al.Until recently, the Viagra connection to HIV was anchored in older adults. However, CDC investigation showed stability in 50+ HIV diagnoses on the heels of upward trends in risk indicators among men who have sex with men (MSM) and substance abusing populations. Signs have increasingly pointed to recreational drug use among younger populations, to which Viagra is being added to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 10,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurvival and Changes in Germination Response of Rumex obtusifolius Polygonum longisetum and Oenothera biennis during Burial at Three Soil DepthsShiro TsuyuzakiTo investigate patterns in seed germination and survival at three different soil depths over a long time span, seeds of Rumex obtusifolius, Polygonum longisetum and Oenothera biennis were examined as a function of season (spring, autumn) and soil depth (3, 10, 30 cm). Buried seeds were exhumed after 3 years and subjected to two different temperature treatments. These were gradually … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMobile Agents in Wireless LAN and Cellular Data NetworksR. B. Patel, V. K. Katiyar, Vishal GargAdvancing technology in wireless communication offers users anytime, anywhere access to information and network resources without restricting them to the fixed network infrastructure. Mobile computing represents a shift in the distributed systems paradigm. The potential of decoupled and disconnected operation, location-dependent computation and communication and powerful portable computing devices gives rise to opportunities for new patterns of distributed computation that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Method for Tagging Arabic TextYamina Tlili-GuiassaMany natural language expressions are ambiguous and need to draw on other sources of information to be interpreted. Interpretation of the word ﺗﻌﺎون to be considered as a noun or a verb depends on the presence of contextual cues. This study proposes a hybrid method of based- rules and a machine learning method for tagging Arabic words. So this method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Neural Networks Classifier for Face DetectionF. Smach, M. Atri, J. Mitéran, M. AbidFace detection and recognition has many applications in a variety of fields such as security system, videoconferencing and identification. Face classification is currently implemented in software. A hardware implementation allows real-time processing, but has higher cost and time to-market. The objective of this work was to implement a classifier based on neural networks MLP (Multi-layer Perception) for face detection. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,885 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of ball milling times on phase formation of Mg0.7Zn0.3Fe2O4Aurawan Rittidech, Panuthat KhotsongkramMg0.7Zn0.3Fe2O4 (MZF) powder was prepared by a solid-state mixed oxide using ball-milling technique. The phase identification of calcined powders was performed using X-ray diffraction technique (XRD). It has been found that MZF powders were successfully obtained for calcination conditions of 800 oC for milling times of 36 h, whereas milling times of 12 h, unreacted ZnO, Fe2O3 and MgO phases … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,324 accessesView PDFCite
