Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAn Investigation of Valve Lift Effect on Air Flow and Coefficient of Discharge of Four Stroke Engines Based on ExperimentAbdul Rahim Ismail, Rosli Abu Bakar, SeminThe coefficient of discharge (CD) is defined as the ratio of actual discharge to ideal discharge. In an engine environment, ideal discharge considers an ideal gas and the process to be free from friction, surface tension, etc. Coefficients of discharge are widely used to monitor the flow efficiency through various engine components and are quite useful in improving the performance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,431 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReclamation of Irrigated Lands and Improvement of the Groundwater Regime Under Vertical Drainage OperationBalzhan Amanbayeva, Raushan Dzhaisambekova, Alexander Basmanov et al.The aim of the study was to identify patterns of seasonal groundwater-level fluctuations and assess the effectiveness of vertical drainage in regulating the reclamation regime of saline lands in Kazakhstan. The methods included monitoring-well observations, calculation of seasonal amplitudes, Student’s t-test, the Mann-Whitney U test, and Pearson correlation analysis. Before the growing season, groundwater occurred at a depth of 1.5-1.7 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 23 Sep 2026 · 608 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Deploying the Flow Guide Vane in Upstream of Triangular Duckbill Weirs on the Efficiency of this Type of Weir in Laboratory ConditionsSayedeh Zahra Hosseini-Teshnizi, Manuchehr Heidarpour, Saeid Eslamian et al.One of the effective ways for the flow of water in low head water conditions is using triangular duckbill weirs. Regarding the high efficiency of these weirs in higher rate of flow discharge in constant head water conditions, the investigation about this type of weirs is greatly required. The present study is done on triangular duckbill weir with two different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 Jun 2019 · 7,199 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTartaric Acid Modified Rice Hull as a Sorbent for Methylene Blue RemovalSiew-Teng Ong, Pei-Sin Keng, Ai-Wen Chong et al.Problem statement: Improper dye discharge from various industries such as textile, paper, cosmetic and plastics into receiving streams can be one of the sources towards water pollution. The release of these effluents not only causes various disruptions in the ecosystems, but also poses hazard effect as most of the dyes are highly toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic in nature. Approach: To … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,151 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Covers and Rainfall on Soil and Water Conservation Using a Tilting Flume ModelS. Compliew, L. Suwanchai, N. KrongwiengThe effect of stone and vegetative covers was evaluated for soil and water conservation in a waterway on salty soils in the Northeast of Thailand. Experiments were conducted on a hydraulic tilting flume under simulated unit flow (120 and 45 cm2s-1), rainfall (120 mm/hr) and slope (0, 1.2,1.4,1.6,1.8,2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0%) conditions. The depth of soil was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,629 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Optimization of Fermentation Conditions for Cellulase Production from Palm Oil Mill EffluentJamal I. Daoud, Md. Zahangir AlamProblem statement: Palm oil mill effluent discharged by the oil palm industries is considered as the mixed of high polluted effluent which is abundant (about 20 million tonnes year-1) and its effect contributes to the serious environmental problems through the pollution of water bodies. Approach: The aim of this study was to identify the potential of low cost substrate such … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,192 accessesView PDF Cite
