Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Nano Silica on the Compressive Strength of Harden Cement Paste at Different Stages of HydrationJustin Montgomery, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Sameer A. Hamoush, Miguel PicornellThis study investigated the compressive strength of hardened cement paste and the formation of Calcium Silicate Hydrate (C-S-H) with the addition of nano silica (SiO2). Compressive strength testing was performed using MTS and Forney testing machines to determine stress-strain curves and compressive strength of the materials. The hydration process and formation of C-S-H and Calcium Hydroxide (CH) was examined using … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Mar 2016 · 8,333 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigating the Role of Fly Ash and Silica Fume in the Cement Hydration ProcessLucas Suarez, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Miguel Picornell, Sameer A. HamoushThis research work investigates the effect of fly ash and silica fume on cement paste hydration. Percentages of each additive were selected to replace the cement by volume to be studied at five different ages using water curing and vacuum curing. These percentages were compared alongside a controlled cement paste without additives. Testing was carried out on 350 samples. Analysis … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2016 · 8,640 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGermination Ecology of Rhanterium epapposum Oliv.Sameeha Zaman, Shyamala Padmesh, Harby TawfiqProblem statement: Rhanterium epapposum, locally called Arfaj is the national flower of Kuwait. The current situation of Rhanterium epapposum is quite critical in most areas of Kuwait. In fact it has completely disappeared from most parts of the country due to a combination of overgrazing, collecting for firewood and off road driving. Approach: Rhanterium epapposum is an excellent species for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical Prediction Model for Temperature Distributions in Concrete at Early AgesWondwosen Ali, Girum UrgessaA finite element-finite difference numerical model is developed for predicting non-uniform temperature development in hydrating concrete with respect to time and space. The results obtained from this model can be used by structural and construction engineers to predict critical thermal stresses induced due to differential temperatures between the core and the surface of the concrete at early ages and between … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2013 · 7,353 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractAlcohol-Induced Rhabdomyolysis Complicated by Hyponatremia and Acute Kidney Injury Following Minor Trauma: A Case ReportVinay Tulsian, Drupad Das, M Sukumar, Prasan Kumar PandaRhabdomyolysis from alcohol is established, but combined binge intake, minor trauma, and vomiting-induced hyponatremia is a complex clinical scenario. Case study: This case report describes a young male with a three-year history of alcohol consumption who presented with rhabdomyolysis following binge drinking and a mild traumatic fall. He experienced 10 to 15 episodes of vomiting post-alcohol intake, subsequently developing anasarca. … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 23 May 2026 · 1,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreen Building: Use of Pozzolanic Material to Reduce CO2 Emissions and Energy Conservation in the Production of Composite Pozzolanic CementAbd EL-Rahman Ragab, Shimaa Younis, Mohamed Sayed Mohamed MoawadThe effect of pozzolanic material on the mechanical properties and microstructure of clinker Portland cement mortar was studied. The main objective of this research is to formulate a Pozzolanic blended cement mortar with high mechanical properties to reduce CO2 emissions and energy conservation uses in the clinker industry. The present investigation aims to study the effect of fresh basalt on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2022 · 6,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Tree-Ring Chronologies in Coniferous Forests of Southeastern KazakhstanAinur Utebekova, Bagila Maisupova, Bulkair Mambetov et al.The aim of the present research was to study the spatial and temporal patterns in the growth response of spruce to climate change at different altitudes (upper, middle and lower) of mountainous terrain in Southern Kazakhstan. The analysis of the climatic response of the generalized chronologies was carried out by calculating the correlation coefficients (Rs) between the growth indices and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2021 · 6,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInclusion of Molasses or Glucose Syrup in Starter Concentrate for Dairy Calves: Effects on Diarrheic CalvesMarcelo Cezar Soares, Carlos Eduardo Oltramari, Marília Ribeiro de Paula et al.Severity of metabolic acidosis and other clinical signs in diarrheic dairy calves fed a starter concentrate containing molasses or glucose syrup as a replacement for corn were evaluated. Thirty-two calves were blocked according to birth weight and were divided into four treatments according to starter concentrate composition: (1) Control, starter concentrate based on corn; (2) 5% of molasses as a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2016 · 7,254 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Nano Silica for Improving Mechanical Properties of Hardened Cement PasteIntisar Kuli, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Elham H. Fini, Sameer A. HamoushThe influence of adding Nano particles of silicon dioxide (SiO2) on cement pastes was studied for both water and vacuum curing methods. Specimens made up of different percentage of Nano Silica were tested at different ages ranging from 3-56 days. The effect of (5-20 nm) Nano-Silica on the strength development of Nano-cement was determined using Material Tests System (MTS).
