Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSTEEL FIBER CURVATURE IN CONCRETE COMPOSITES: MODULUS PREDICTIONS USING EFFECTIVE STEEL FIBER PROPERTIESAbdellatif SelmiResults in the literature demonstrate that substantial improvements in the mechanical behavior of concrete have been attained through the addition of steel fibers as a reinforcing phase. We have developed a model combining finite element results and micromechanical methods to determine the effective reinforcing modu-lus of hook-ended steel fibers. This effective reinforcing modulus is then used within a multiphase micro-mechanics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Dec 2013 · 7,051 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Biomechanical Composite Model to Determine Effective Elastic Moduli of the CNS Gray MatterMehdi Khoshgoftar, Siamak Najarian, Farhad Farmanzad et al.Brain tissue is a heterogeneous material with complicated microstructural features. Models based on microstructure can lead to more accurate and physically realistic predictions of mechanical characteristics of brain tissue. A two-step Mori-Tanaka/Voigt homogenization procedure is implemented into a 3D microstructurally-based multi-phase composite model, composed of randomly-oriented elastic axons, dendrites and neuronal cell bodies surrounded by an elastic matrix. The effects … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adaptive Detail Preserving Modified Progressive Pca Thresholding Based Image DenoisingN. Anilkumar, S. Radhakrishnan, Shaik Syed Basha et al.Radiologists use medical imaging tools to assess the anatomy and function of interior organs. However, medical images are frequently distorted by various types of noise generated during the capture, transmission, and reconstruction operations, which can dramatically reduce image quality and hide critical diagnostic features. As a result, developing effective denoising algorithms that suppress noise while maintaining structural information remains a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 8 · 8 Sep 2026 · 529 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Functional Prospects of Moringa oleifera Lam on Meat Quality-A ReviewNobuhle Sharon Lungu, Emrobowansan Monday IdamokoroResearch done by scholars on the utilization of the different parts of Moringa oleifera Lam. in improving livestock performance and boosting meat quality has increased over the years in many nations across the globe. Moringa oleifera has been identified as an essential bio-resourceful plant containing vital nutrients and bio-active compounds with proven functional properties, including antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. These … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 2 May 2024 · 5,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptic Neuropathy: Characteristic Pathology for Identifying Drugs with Potential to Cause Mitochondrial ToxicityConnor Dyer, Katlyn Droke, Ugne Zekonyte, Mariana RoscaDeleterious effects on mitochondria are known to be frequently caused by prescription drugs, however, there is no standard and specific testing by pharmaceutical companies on these effects on mitochondria during drug development. The objective of this study is to determine if cases of optic neuropathy are related to drug-induced mitochondrial toxicity in a way that could be used to predict … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2024 · 8,562 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Cement Kiln Dust on the Soil Electrical ResistivityHamid Ranjkesh Adarmanabadi, Arezou Rasti, Mehrdad RazaviElectrical resistivity is a non-destructive, cost-effective and sensitive method to evaluate soil's physical and chemical properties. Electrical resistivity has been used widely in surface and subsurface exploration. The electrical resistivity is directly related to the subsurface geotechnical and geothermal properties like porosity, temperature, salinity and water content. Recently uses of waste material as an additive to improve the soil engineering … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2021 · 7,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Potential of Ethanol Extract from Some Plants Against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosaFeskaharny Alamsjah, Anthoni Agustien et al.The number of reports of bacterial infections that are difficult to treat with antibiotics has led to the need for new alternatives for the treatment of resistant bacterial infections. One alternative is to utilize phytochemical bioactive compounds derived from natural ingredients which contain antimicrobial compounds. Some plants medicine from Sumatra island that should have potential as antimicrobials are the leaves … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 19 Mar 2024 · 6,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Computational Investigation into the Effect of Equal Channel Angular Processing on the Mechanical Properties of Severely Deformed ZK 60 Alloy Validated by ExperimentsOmar Almenaif, Yaqoub Alhumaydani, Mohammed Alnafisah et al.In this study, the response surface method and finite-element analysis were employed to model the ECAP processing for biodegradable magnesium alloy ZK 60 behavior at 250°C. Using Finite-Element (FE) analysis data was extracted and compared to the what was found by experimenting in order to investigate the effects of the ECAP processing parameters on the plastic deformation behavior of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2020 · 7,238 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of New Molecules Having Antiemetic Activity Using Molecular ModelingKhalil Errahmane Kanouni, Yacine BenguerbaThe solubility of a drug in water or in the blood represents the most desired parameter in medicine. Our aim is to obtain molecules with properties more effective than those of metoclopramide. In this work, two molecules with high solubility are constructed. Metoclopramide (a benzamide derivative) is a dopamine receptor antagonist used as an antiemetic drug. Its solubility in water … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 6,664 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Psychometric Test of the ‘Empathy and Understanding in the Dementia Index’ for Health ProfessionalsPaul Slater, Kevin Moore, Florence Sharkey, Felicity HassonEmpathy among health professionals requires the application of empathic understanding in practice and in the way, care is provided. To date, few tools have been specifically designed to measure empathy concerning dementia training. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a psychometrically valid and reliable tool to measure empathy among health professionals. A mixed methods sequential exploratory design was adopted guided … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 19 Dec 2022 · 6,910 accessesView PDFCite
