Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIncorporation of Cellulose into a Chew Treat for Dogs Increases Elasticity and Chewing TimeA. C. BeynenProblem statement: We have reported earlier that administration of a treat containing a special cellulose preparation (Arbocel BWW40®), instead of a control treat without cellulose, diminishes the clinical signs of periodontal disease in dogs. Based on the physical characteristics of cellulose preparation, we hypothesized that treats with cellulose have greater elasticity and induce longer chewing time, leading to more mechanical … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 20 Oct 2011 · 7,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCollocation Discrete Least Squares (CDLS) Method for Elasticity Problems and Grid Irregularity Effect AssessmentM. Naisipour, M. H. Afshar, B. Hassani, A. R. FiroozjaeeA meshless approach, collocation discrete least square (CDLS) method, is extended in this paper, for solving elasticity problems and grid irregularity effect is assessed. In the present CDLS method, the problem domain is discretized by distributed field nodes. The field nodes are used to construct the trial functions. The moving least-squares interpolant is employed to construct the trial functions. Some … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUsing Regression Analysis to Predict the Demand Function of Electricity: A Case StudyHasan Karimian Khozani, Esmaeil Esmaeili, Mohammad Najjartabar Bisheh et al.Due to the growing electricity consumption in Iran, investigating the changes of the electricity demand is one of the fundamental challenges facing many professionals and planners. The planners always invest efforts to address this issue by accurately predicting the electricity demand over the years and increasing the extra capacity respectively. One of the main tools for predicting the electricity demand … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2020 · 6,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn the Influence of Climate and Socio-Economic Condition to the Dengue Incidences: A Semiparametric Panel Regression ApproachNurma Yussanti, Heri Kuswanto, Mutiah SalamahDengue is one of the most dangerous diseases in the worlds. In particularly in East Java province Indonesia, dengue has been identified as one of the major causes of death. Hence, it is important to investigate the factors that induce the number of dengue incidences in this region. This study examines climate and socio-economic conditions, which are assumed to influence … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 14 Feb 2013 · 7,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUtilization of Bone Adhesive to Produce Particleboards from Stems of Cotton Plant at the Pressing Temperature of 140°CKomi Kadja, Magolmeena Banna, Kokou Esso Atcholi, Komla SandaProblem statement: To value agricultural residues, a study was carried out to investigate mechanical and physical properties of particleboards produced from stems of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) by using bone adhesive. Approach: In order to obtain particleboards with minimum physical and mechanical properties as required in the conventional standards for general purpose particleboards, the optimum pressure temperature and the optimum … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Review of Recent Results on 3D EffectsRelly Victoria V. Petrescu, Florian Ion T. PetrescuThree dimensions or three-dimensional or 3D are expressions that characterize the space around us, as perceived by our vision, in terms of width, height and depth. The term "3D" is also (and improperly) used to refer to the representation in synthetic (digital) images, the relief of stereoscopic images or other images in relief and sometimes even the simple stereophonic effect, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2016 · 8,337 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWhy is it so Difficult to Attract FDI to the MENA Countries?Partha Gangopadhyay, Mohamed ElafifIn this study we constructively argue that the relationship between FDI flows and the per capita GDP for the MENA countries has a novel feature-hitherto unrecognised-which can partially explain the great difficulty of the MENA region in attracting FDI. We show the existence of a separatrix, or trap, in terms of the per capita GDP: To the left of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 16 Sep 2016 · 7,469 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessIn the keywordsIncreased Tissue Pressure Induces Demyelinated Lesions and Necroses in the BrainHelmut Barz, Ulrich Barz, Almut SchreiberA general brain edema increases the size of the brain tissue and stretches the elastic neuronal and glial fibers. Myelinated fibers are more elastic than unmyelinated fibers. The stretching of the neuronal fibers leads particular in regions of the white matter or areas surrounded by myelinated fiber tracts to an increased tissue pressure. This physical principle can be the reason … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2015 · 7,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFreezing and Thawing Durability of Very High Strength ConcreteSameer Hamoush, Miguel Picornell-Darder, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Ahmed MohamedProblem statement: The newly developed Very High Strength Concrete (VHSC), having compressive strengths of 29 ksi and flexural strengths of 6 ksi, represents a breakthrough in concrete technology. Study to further enhance the properties of this new concrete is continuing. Approach: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of exposing Very High Strength Concrete (VHSC) specimens to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2011 · 8,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComputational Investigation of Elastoplastic Deformation of a Sandwich Beam on the Elastic FoundationMoh’d Ishaq Abu HalawaElastoplastic bending of a sandwich beam with a rigid compressible filler on an elastic base has been studied. To describe kinematics of asymmetrical across thickness pack in the bearing layers the Bernoulli hypotheses have been accepted. Displacements in the filler vary linearly over thickness. The distributed superficial loading simulates the hydrostatic effect of the ambient liquid. The reaction of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,567 accessesView PDFCite
