Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleLong Term Ageing Effect on Physical and Shear Strength Characteristics of Oil Contaminated Sandy Soils of Al-Ahmadi Field in KuwaitHumoud Melfi Aldaihani, Fahad A. Al-OtaibiSerious environmental damage was caused to Kuwait when more than 600 oil wells were set alight following the 1991 Gulf War, leading to hydrocarbon contamination and a series of ‘oil lakes’ being created in the desert. The effects of these highly damaging actions are still detectable today, 27 years later. The main contribution of this paper is that the effects … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2019 · 8,060 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleInfluence of Bitumen Addition on Sabkha Soil Shear Strength Characteristics under Dry and Soaked ConditionsFahad A. Alotaibi, Humoud Melfi AldaihaniHigh salt content in sabkha soils means they are significantly affected by changes in water content. Dissolution of salts within sabkha soil mass decreases their shear strength upon inundation with water, resulting from the destruction of cementation bonds between soil particles. Therefore, successful improvement for these soils must be based on reducing the dissolution of sabkha salts to minimize their … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 13 Nov 2018 · 7,388 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Acid Frosting on the Microstructure Characteristics and Mechanical Strength of Eroded Soda-Lime-Silica Glasses by SandstormAkinwumi Gbenga Owoyemi, Grace Olufunke Matthew, Seun Samuel OwoeyeMost glass products such as cars windshields, solar panels protecting glass and windowpanes are exposed to unavoidable sandblasting effects especially in areas prone to sandstorms. This sand impingement results into micro cracks and surface flaws which altered the structure and strength of the exposed glasses thereby lowering their service life. In this regard, attempt was made in this research to … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2019 · 6,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFlexural and Tensile Characteristics of Micro Fiber-Reinforced Very High Strength Concrete Thin PanelsTaher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie Fini, Monique LumpkinThe purpose of this research was to experimentally characterize the flexural and tensile characteristics of fiber-reinforced Very High-Strength Concrete (VHSC) panels. The panels were made with a unique mix of cementitous materials achieving compressive strength of 26,000 psi (180 MPa) or greater. VHSC panels were reinforced with polypropylene fibers of 1 inch (25.4 mm) in length and Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2012 · 8,495 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsPolyethylene Pipeline Bending Stresses at an InstallationAnatoly Serebrennikov, Daniil Serebrennikov, Zufar HakimovA polyethylene pipeline trenchless installation with special machines is one of methods of gas pipeline constructions between localities. A polyethylene pipeline is exposed to a short term bend and a significant deformation during an installation. The methods and research results of the polyethylene pipeline ability at the short term bending are presented below. The mathematical model has been created. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2016 · 7,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStress Resistance Physiological Traits in Maize Under High-Concentration Salt StressMingxia WangTo quantitatively analyze the stress-resistant physiological characteristics of maize under high-concentration salt stress, a combination of statistical analysis and quantitative recursive analysis is selected to conduct salt stress experiments on maize seedlings. 20 treatments are set up, with each treatment consisting of 5 pots and 3 plants per pot. The experiment is conducted without the involvement of any animals. Physiological … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2024 · 4,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Method for the Non-Destructive Assessment of Strength Degradation and Re-Use Potential of Weathered Float Glass From Facades: A Proof of Concept StudyFred Veer, Mauro Overend, Irene Sofokleous, Chris NoteboomLack of knowledge about the properties of weathered (used) glass is currently a major barrier to glass reuse. This results in probably unnecessary recycling or down-cycling of architectural glass at the end of life. Avoiding this creates a significant opportunity to reduce resource depletion and decarbonize the built environment. This can be done by developing an optical non-destructive test method … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 19 Oct 2023 · 9,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Protein Feed Additives on Skin and Fur Quality of American MinkPavel Nikolayevich Abramov, Olga Fedorovna Chernova, Nikolai Aleksandrovich Balakirev et al.The purpose of the research is to study the effect of hydrolysates on the skin and fur quality. To assess morphological parameters of skin, as well as the commercial characteristics of the raw materials obtained, we formed three groups (one control and two experimental) of 3-month-old males (25 animals in each group) and females (50 animals in each group). Control … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2022 · 6,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrack Bridging and Deflection Toughening Mechanisms of Staggered Hydroxyapatite Lamellar Microstructure in BoneYuxi Liu, Xiaohui He, Shuge Li, Zhangdong SunThe observation experiment results of the microstructure of tibial cortical bone show that the cortical bone is a layered bio-ceramic composite material composed of Hydroxyapatite (HAP) and collagen arranged alternately. HAP is a reinforcing phase and accounts for a large proportion in cortical bone. These hydroxyapatites have long and thin sheet-like structures parallel to the outer surface of the bone, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2026 · 890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecognizing Sign Language Gestures Using a Hybrid Spatio-Temporal Deep Learning ModelMeryem Cherrate, My Abdelouahed Sabri, Ali Yahyaouy, Abdellah AarabRecognizing gestures in American Sign Language (ASL) from video data presents significant challenges due to the intricate combination of hand gestures, facial cues, and body motion. In this work, we introduce a hybrid deep learning framework that integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for extracting spatial characteristics with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for capturing temporal sequences. The model was trained … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 23 Jan 2026 · 2,048 accessesView PDFCite
