Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Effects of Moisture Content and Loading Orientation on Some Physical and Mechanical Properties of Tiger NutLong Wang, Can Hu, Wensong Guo et al.The physical and mechanical properties of the newly “Zhongyousha No.1” and the traditional “Yousha” Chinese tiger nut varieties are studied. Several physical and mechanical properties of the two tiger nut varieties were determined as a function of moisture content (at five levels of 40.0, 32.0, 24.0, 16.0 and 8.0% wet basis). The physical and mechanical properties including length, width, thickness, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2021 · 6,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffects of Moisture Content on Thermal Properties of Adobe Bricks as a Sustainable Building MaterialSuleman Modu NgaramThe adobe is a widely used traditional material in popular building construction in rural areas of Northeastern, Nigeria and more generally in African countries. In order to increase comfort and energy efficiency of buildings, it is necessary to better consider the thermal properties of the adobe. Adobes at different locations as a function of moisture content have been studied. Thermal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2020 · 10,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Visceral Organ, Gastrointestinal Tract and Blood Characteristics in Pegagan Ducks Fed Ration Fermented by Tape Yeast with Different Moisture ContentFitra Yosi, Sofia Sandi, MiksusantiThe purpose of this study was to assess the effect of administration diet containing locally sourced materials fermented by tape yeast with different moisture content on the weight of the visceral organs, gastrointestinal tract and blood chemistry and profile of Pegagan ducks. As many as 200 Pegagan ducks aged 3 days were kept for 6 weeks in colony cages. This … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 19 Aug 2017 · 9,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCompaction Properties of Silty Soils in Relation to Soil Texture, Moisture Content and Organic MatterPrathuang Usaborisut, Jettapol AmpanmaneeSoil compaction is recognized as an increasingly challenging problem with regard to root growth and yield reduction in agricultural production in Thailand. The aim of this research was to study the effect of soil texture, moisture content and organic matter on the compaction properties of silty soils. Three soils with different silt contents were studied-loam, silty clay loam and silt … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2015 · 9,536 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMoisture Content Prediction of Dried Longan Aril from Dielectric Constant Using Multilayer Perceptrons and Support Vector RegressionSanong Amaroek, Nipon Theera-Umpon, Kittichai Wantanajittikul, Sansanee AuephanwiriyakulProblem statement: Estimation of moisture contents of dried food products from their dielectric constants was an important step in moisture measurement systems. The regression models that provide good prediction performance are desirable. Approach: The Multilayer Perceptrons (MLP) and Support Vector Regression (SVR) were applied in this research to predict the moisture contents of dried longan arils from their dielectric constants. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRice Grain Moisture Determination Using Microstrip Wide-Ring and Microstrip Coupled-Line SensorsHou Kit Mun, Kok Yeow You, Mohamad Ngasri DimonDetermining the Moisture Content (MC) inside rice grain is an important element for grain processesing such as harvesting, storage, quality control and transportation. A microstrip wide-ring sensor and a microstrip coupled-line sensor with low insertion loss were developed to operate at relatively low frequency to determine the MC and relative complex permittivity of rice grain. The complex permittivity for rice … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2015 · 7,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEmploying Electromagnetic Induction Technique for the Assessment of Soil CompactionKhalid A. Al-GaadiAn experiment on a sandy soil field was conducted to investigate the potential of determining soil compaction from apparent soil Electrical Conductivity (ECa) measured by Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) technique. A soil conductivity meter (EM38) was used to measure ECa under four soil Moisture Contents (MC) (4.965.336.94 and 8.0%) and a range of Soil Compaction (SC) levels (on the average, from … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 7 Nov 2012 · 8,253 accessesView PDFCite
