Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Over-Voltages Produced by Lightning Strokes in the Power Transmission System in the Southern Region of Saudi ArabiaA. U. Al-Abdulaziz, S. M. Bashi, A. A. AlthubaitiThis study deals with the simulation of lightning strokes and their effects on power network in the southern region of Saudi Arabia. The network consists of main generating stations, substations and the power transmission lines. The transient performance of the system has been investigated using the EMTP (Electro Magnetic Transient Program). Some surges were introduced to the network as in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards a Temporal Multilevel Secure Database (TMSDB)Ramzi A. Haraty, Natalie BekaiiStandard Relational Databases are used to store the state of reality at a single moment of time. Temporal Databases are used to store Time-Varying Data. Multilevel Secure Databases are used to securely store highly sensitive data. Each of these databases serves its purpose well, but if we were to model the temporal and sensitive aspect of the real world data, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of the Flow Structure of A Thermal Plume Evolving in an Unlimited and in A Semi-Enclosed EnvironmentJamil Zinoubi, A. Ould Mohamed Mahmoud, Taoufik Naffouti et al.The basic objective of this study was to better knowledge the fine flow structure of thermal plume created by a heated disk, evolving in an unlimited and in a semi-enclosed environment. The flow visualization and the study of the temperature fluctuations spectrum show clearly a considerable change of the turbulent structure of the internal flow in comparison with the free … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTi: Cognitive Function in Diabetes Mellitus PatientsRostam SeyfaddiniNeuropathies are one of the most common complications in diabetic patients. Several studies determined relationship between cognitive disorders and diabetes mellitus (DM). The historical cohort study was designed to distinguish relation of DM and cognitive decrements. The Wisconsin Card Sort Test (WCST) and Mini-Mental Status Exam (MMSE) were conducted for evaluation of cognitive problems. Fifty diabetic patient and 48 control … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA General Probability Distribution Using Burmann Power SeriesRichard F. Patterson, Pali SenThe goal of this study is to present a general power series distribution that exhibits the properties of some well known distributions. To accomplish this goal we examine an infinite sequence of independent random variables having a Bürmann’s power series distribution. Consequently, we derive moment generating function of the distribution and establish the maximum likelihood estimate of the component that … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simple Approach for Building Cooling Load EstimationF. A. Ansari, A. S. Mokhtar, K. A. Abbas, N. M. AdamThe present work is to demonstrate how some very simple problems are made mathematically complex and seemingly tedious due to academic or business compulsions. There are some problems in which mathematical model are developed after making many simplifying assumptions. But, when it comes to solving these models, very sophisticated and complex schemes are applied. For such problems, dual policy does … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBotulinum Toxin as a Novel Addition to Anti-Arthritis ArmamentariumHamid Namazi, Zahra MajdOsteoarthritis is the most common joint disease and is among the most frequent health problems for middle aged and older people. There is strong evidence that proinflammatory cytokines contribute to cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis. Interleukin-1 is the prototypical proinflammatory cytokine implicated in the pathogenesis of cartilage matrix degeneration. Results from studies in animal models provide stronger evidence implicating a role … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Method to Estimate Intrinsic Parameters in the Ping-pong Bisustrate Kinetic: Application to the Oxipolymerization of PhenolJosé L. Gómez, Antonio Bódalo, Elisa Gómez et al.A new method for determining the intrinsic parameters of reaction in processes involving a high initial rate has been developed. The usefulness of this alternative, which consists of determining several sets of apparent parameters at different times and then extrapolating these to time zero, is demonstrated proved by the linear dependence obtained between the apparent parameters and the reaction time. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Verification of Folk Medicinal Potentiality of Wild Dicot Aquatic Plants in JordanS. Al-Qura'nThis study describes a floristic study of Jordan with its environs. The study was carried out during 2001-2003 and 287 aquatic dicot samples were collected and photographed in the field. After the identification of the specimens, the total wild aquatic dicot species have been determined as 87 species belonging to 59 genera and 33 plant families were presented in investigated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Groundwater Vulnerability in Urban Development PlanningJ. Nouri, S. MalmasiGroundwater resources in most places of Iran are considered to be one of the important drinking water supplies for civilians. In city of Tehran, 25% of drinking water is being supplied from groundwater. This fact would enforce the requirement to protect and conserve groundwater resources in the city for its further development plan. Municipality of Tehran, District-22 has been designed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
