Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOscillatory Dynamical Switching System of Bulk FerroelectricsM. N.A. Halif, S. Daud, Junaidah OsmanThis study gives a detailed account of calculation of the bulk ferroelectric (FE) oscillatory dynamical system switching to first and second-order phase transition, respectively. All the formalism is delineated in the framework of Landau free-energy expansion and Landau-Khalatnikov (LK) equation of motion where the effect of external energy may affray FE atoms similar to the spring damped oscillatory system. Here … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,679 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Environmental and Health Impacts of High Land Application of Cheese WheyA. E. Ghaly, N.S. Mahmoud, D.G. Rushton, F. ArabA laboratory scale experiment was carried out to study the transformation and transport of nitrogenous compounds in soils receiving high application rates of cheese whey (twice the nitrogen requirement for crops). The experimental apparatus consists of 36 soil columns constructed of 20 cm inside diameter PVC pipes. Three types of soil (sandy loam, loam and sandy clay loam) and three … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,158 accessesView PDF Cite
