Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIntention to Use Renewable Energy: Mediating role of AttitudeMamunur Rashid, Syed Shah AlamAcceptance of renewable energy is influenced by attitude of the users towards new technology. Lack of research on renewable energy in emerging countries and drive for switching to alternative energy urge for studies on attitude of the users’ towards renewable energy adoption. This study investigates perception towards renewable energy use in Malaysia. A survey over 200 respondents from Klang-valley area … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 11 Mar 2013 · 12,683 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Landform and Sunlight in Zayandeh Roud BasinKaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Maryam Marani-BarzaniSolar energy is as of energy that it is significant in human activities. Human activities can use in agricultures, factories, industrial and residential plan. In other hand, solar energy is as renewable energy can help to have safety environment. This study tries to say significant of identification of landforms and getting cheap and safe energy. In this study, classification of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2021 · 5,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInverse Kinematics of a Stewart PlatformRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.The development and diversification of machines and mechanisms with applications in all fields require new scientific researches for the systematization and improvement of existing mechanical systems by creating new mechanisms adapted to modern requirements, which involve increasingly complex topological structures. The modern industry, the practice of designing and building machinery is increasingly based on the results of scientific and applied … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2018 · 14,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Validation of a 2D Finite Element Model for Air Pollution Dispersion (SUITE-2D)Youssef Ismail HafezThis paper presents the development and validation of SUITE-2D (Solving Unsteady Incompressible Transport Equation in Two Dimensions), a two-dimensional finite element model for solving the advection-diffusion transport equation with decay and source terms. The model provides an efficient and accurate approach for simulating pollutant dispersion in environmental systems. The finite element formulation uses the standard Galerkin method, with numerical integration … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 22 Dec 2025 · 3,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Cost Advantage of Sicilian Wine FarmsSalvatore Tudisca, Anna Maria Di Trapani, Filippo Sgroi, Riccardo TestaThis study presents the results of research carried out on a Sicilian wine farm in order to demonstrate the economic convenience of the mechanized harvest. After the determination of the minimum optimal farm size that justifies the introduction of grape harvester in the farm, it has been estimated production cost and the relative profitability of two wine grape cultivars (Chardonnay … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 18 Oct 2013 · 7,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNon-business E-Commerce in Malaysia: An Investigation of Key AdoptionOswald Aisat Igau, Abdul Wahid Mohd Kassim, Sulaiman Tahajuddin et al.Problem statement: Non-business EC is a relatively new research niche in the general e-commerce stream. Application of e-commerce by profit oriented organization already become bread and butter but still limited applied in non-business sectors such as academic institutions (as in the present study), non-profit organizations, religious organizations and government agencies. Nowadays e-commerce becomes crucially essential in reducing their expenses and … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiometric Correction of Multitemporal Satellite ImagerySeema Gore Biday, Udhav BhosleProblem statement: Repeated observation of a given area over time yields potential for many forms of change detection analysis. These repeated observations are confounded in terms of radiometric consistency due to changes in sensor calibration over time, differences in illumination, observation angles and variation in atmospheric effects. Also major problem with satellite images is that regions below clouds are not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncorporating Workload and Performance Levels into Work Situation Analysis of Employees with Application to a Taiwanese Hotel ChainTien-Hui Chen, Kun-Hsu Wu, Wei-Jen Lin et al.Problem statement: Appropriate Human Resource Management (HRM) can motivate employees, develop their capabilities and enhance their productivity. However, before selecting the HRM practices to adopt, the workload levels of employees should be considered, since they may influence the success of such efforts. Approach: This study measured the relative workload of individual employees and incorporates the performance level into the work … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Antidiabetic Efficacy of Combined Extracts from Two Continental Plants: Azadirachta indica (A. Juss) (Neem) and Vernonia amygdalina (Del.) (African Bitter Leaf)Patrick Ekong Ebong, Item Justin Atangwho, Eyong Ubana Eyong, Godwin Eneji EgbungPolyherbal therapy is said to be a current pharmacological principle having the advantage of producing maximum therapeutic efficacy with minimum side effects. We assessed the antidiabetic efficacy and hence the impact on biochemical indices of toxicity by a combination of extracts from neem and bitterleaf. Thirty rats, 25 diabetic and 5 non-diabetic rats, were used for the study. The diabetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Aug 2008 · 14,400 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Metoprolol and Felodipine in Binary Mixture Using Chemometric-Assisted Spectrophotometric and High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic-UV MethodsHesham Salem, Ola M. AbdallahFour methods were developed for simultaneous determination of metoprolol and felodipine without previous separation. In the first method both drugs were determined using first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero crossing measurement at 222 and 235 nm for metoprolol and felodipine, respectively. The second method depends on first derivative of the ratios spectra by measurements of the amplitudes at 250.1 nm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,025 accessesView PDFCite
