Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Soil Storage at Freezing Temperatures on Soil Enzymatic ActivitiesAinsley Lougheed, Kabwe NkongoloSoil enzyme activities are good indicators of soil health. It has been hypothesized that soil storage before analysis might affect microbial function. The objective of the present study was to determine if soil storage at -20 and -80°C affects soil enzymatic activities. Soil samples were collected and stored for four weeks at -20 and -80°C. Activities of nine enzymes were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2024 · 4,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleScanning Electron Microscopic Evaluation of Self-Compacting Concrete Spalling at Elevated TemperaturesMahmoud B. Alhasanat, Arabi N. Al Qadi, Omar A. Al Khashman, Ahmad DahamshehThis paper reports the effect of addition of Polypropylene (PP) fibers in the performance of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) under elevated temperatures. Various SCC mixtures were made with PP fiber at 0.0, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15% by volume added. The specimens were exposed to elevated temperatures (200°C [392°F], 400°C [752°F] and 600°C [1112°F]). The microstructure of the matrix was investigated. This … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2016 · 8,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTrend and Pattern in Average Monthly Maximum Temperatures in Thailand from 1986 to 2015Manachai Rodchuen, Samruam Chongcharoen, Walaithip BunyatisaiThis research aims to study the trends and patterns of average maximum temperature change data of monthly surface in Thailand during the 30 year-period from 1986 to 2015 that has already eliminated seasonal variations and autocorrelation. The data set obtained from Climatological center, Meteorological Development Division, Thailand Meteorological Department for 73 completed recording stations. The climatically regions of Thailand meteorology … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2020 · 7,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAugmentation of Temperatures, Media and Cryoprotectants on in vitro Fertilization of Pig OocytesTumelo Thelma Maduwa, Masindi Lottus Mphaphathi et al.There are numerous challenges to the large-scale production of pig embryos using in vitro procedures. The aim of the present study was to compare the different holding temperatures, in vitro maturation media, and permeating cryoprotectants in the in vitro fertilization of pig oocytes. Ovaries were obtained from the local slaughterhouse, oocytes were retrieved by means of aspiration and slicing techniques … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 29 Aug 2024 · 4,650 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Dynamics Simulation and Analysis of Crystallization System in PVC Tunnel Drain-Pipe at Different TemperaturesZhongwei Hou, Xuefu Zhang, Yuanjiang ZhouAiming at the problem that carbonate and calcium ions are easy to crystallize and precipitate in the drain-pipes of limestone tunnels and then adsorb on PVC pipes in Western China, a "solid-liquid interface model" for the interaction between PVC materials and ions in aqueous solution is established by using the molecular dynamics simulation software materials studio and the microscopic mechanism … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2021 · 6,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProduction and Evaluation of Hydroxyapatite (HAp) Properties of Broiler’s Composite Bone (BCB) Waste at Different Sintering TemperaturesMuhammad Irfan Said, Effendi Abustam, Asdar Gani et al.Bone is one of the perishable livestock wastes, so serious attention is needed. The wastes are produced by Poultry Slaughterhouse (PSh) primarily in the process of separating meat from bone to produce boneless products. The main constituent of bone is the crystals Ca and P, which are the major elements of Hydroxyapatite (HAp). The purpose of this study was to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 8 May 2018 · 7,711 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInterpretation of Double Langmuir Probe I-V Characteristics at Different Ionospheric Plasma TemperaturesShankar BhattaraiWhere the plasma potential is fluctuating significantly, Single Langmuir probe method is not relevant to determine the plasma characteristics. This weakness was overcome by the development of the floating double probe. A distortion of the probe characteristics due to varying potential is eliminated, while the whole probe system is floating. This supports probe operation also in discharges with strongly varying … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2017 · 8,597 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFinite Element Modeling of Transient Temperatures in a Small-Caliber ProjectileM. Brian Thomas, Leon DozierProblem statement: Future generations of intelligent munitions will use Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) for guidance, fuzing logic and assessment of the battlefield environment. The temperatures fund in a gun system, however, are sufficient to damage some materials used in the fabrication of MEMS. The motivation of this study is to model the dynamic temperature distribution in a typical small-caliber projectile. Approach: … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,045 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization of the Fracture Toughness of the Concrete Mortars Exposed to Elevated TemperaturesS. Djaknoun, A. Ahmed Benyahia, E. OuedraogoThe main objective of this research was the characterisation of the fracture toughness of concrete mortars exposed to high temperatures by using notched specimens in three point bending tests. The specimens have different lengths and were heated at different temperatures ranging from room temperature up to 900°C. The experimental test results obtained are closed with those reported by the literature, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 6,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleForecasting Air Temperatures Using Time Series Models and Neural-based AlgorithmsMahmoud M. Smadi, Farouq S. MjalliRecently, neural network models have been popular and found useful for forecasting a wide variety of time series data in many disciplines. This is due to their favorable modeling properties of simplicity, fault and noise tolerance and their capability to adapt to process changes. Nevertheless, applications in climatology have been less widespread than other disciplines such as economics. In this … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,272 accessesView PDFCite
