Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Analysis of Urban Land Development Using Multi-Criteria Decision Model and Geographical Information System (A Case Study of Babolsar City)Sedigheh Lotfi, Kiomarth Habibi, Mohammad Javad KoohsariProblem Statement: The unplanned physical expansion of cities has been one of the most important problems of urban management in developing countries. Iran, like other developing world has experienced a high level of urbanization growth which transformed the physical fabric of urban areas. North of Iran is one of most rapid growing region of the country where the moderate climate … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,708 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Integrated Approach to Modelling of Flood Hazards in the Rapidly Growing City of Osogbo, Osun State, NigeriaSuleiman Abdul-Azeez Adegboyega, Oluchi Christiana Onuoha, Komolafe Akinola Adesuji et al.In recent times, the swift and uncoordinated urban expansion in the medium sized city of Osogbo has increasingly encroached on the environmental sensitive areas. This uncoordinated exploitation of the ecological fragile areas for urban development has triggered urban flooding, which poses serious threat to human lives and properties in the city. This study therefore utilized geospatial technologies to generate flood … …Space Science International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2018 · 13,829 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Step of KourosPaul Nicholas Dimotakis, Panagiotis PapaspirouThe step of Kouros symbolizes a historical period of the Hellenic civilization, designating the decisive step of this civilization towards its geographical, social, cultural and noospheric expansion. This cultural explosion moves towards the New, it is the moment at which the Hellenic civilization realizes its own Plus Ultra. During this cosmogenic explosion certain, idiosyncratic in nature, memeplexes emerge. These shall … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 22 Sep 2015 · 8,212 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSIMULTANEOUS OPTIMISATION OF DRYING PARAMETERS OF CERAMIC BODIESSalah Mahmoudi, Ezzeddine Srasra, Fouad ZargouniThis study deals with the mineralogical, physico-chemical and geotechnical analyses of representative Aptian clays in the north-east of Tunisia. X-ray diffraction reveals a predominance of illite (50-60 wt.%) associated to kaolinite and interstratified illite/smectite. The accessory minerals detected in raw materials are quartz, calcite and Na-feldspar. The average amounts of silica, alumina and alkalis are 52, 20 and 3.5 wt.%, … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 1 Jul 2014 · 6,991 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCosmological Data Could have a microscopic, not Macroscopic, CauseEmmanuil ManousosA slight continuous increase of the rest masses and the electric charges of material particles can justify quantum phenomena and the cosmological data. This increase can only occur in a strictly defined way: the law of selfvariations. The law of selfvariations condenses into one equation the totality of the cosmological data, as we observe them from the time of Hubble … …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 20 Jun 2013 · 7,740 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumber of Non-Unique Minors (of Various Orders) and Elements in the Calculation of General DeterminantsPatrick Marchisella, Gurudeo Anand TularamProblem statement: Many distinct properties of determinants have been studied and are known, yet a considerable number of properties still need further examination. This study investigates the number of minors (of various orders) and elements of a matrix A contained in the expansion of the general determinant of A, irrespective of the independence, principality and distinctness of such minors and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 13 Oct 2012 · 7,432 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact Assessment and Utilization of Eastern RedcedarSalim Hiziroglu, Difei ZhangProblem statement: The fast invasion of eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana L.) has been considered a significant problem to the environment and rural communities. Approach: This study examined the adverse ecological and economic impacts of eastern redcedar and proposed the sustainable development of value-added panel products from such under-utilized invasive species. Also what economic sectors were mostly influenced was examined. Additionally … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,007 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Analysis of Forward Expansion Characteristics of Ablated Plasma by Pulsed Ion-Beam Interaction with Al TargetChainarong Buttapeng, Masaru Yazawa, Nobuhiro HaradaThe main objective of the current study was to investigate the behavior of ablation plasma which was produced by irradiating pulsed ion-beam with a solid target of Al thin foil. The technique used here was called a forward expansion---beams irradiation and the ablation plasma expansion are in an opposite direction. A one-dimensional hydrodynamic model was used to simulate the dynamic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,107 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStudy of the Optical and Physical Roles of a Dielectric Laser Dye Solvent Which Affects on the Dye Laser OperationRiyad A.M. GhazyIt is well known that when the pump laser beam incidence on the laser dye liquid it will be absorbed. This absorption tends to heat the laser active medium, which is the laser dye solution. In view of this the correlated property of that active medium well change tends to shift the operated frequency and wavelength. Therefore, one of most … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,862 accessesView PDF Cite
