Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Place of Transport Infrastructures among the Economic Factors of Foreign Direct Investment Attractiveness in the Meda-10 RegionSamir Saidi, Sami HammamiThis article aims to evaluate the contribution of transport infrastructures to improve the attractiveness of the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the countries of the MEDA-10 region. The present article is formed by two sections. In the first one, we have a theoretical study of the FDI attractiveness and an explanation of the transport role among the territorial attractiveness factors. … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2016 · 7,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Low-Cost Vehicular Infrastructure of Monitoring and Communicating Information for Intelligent Transport SystemsDaniel Rodrigues, Jessica Nayara Severino, Andre Luis Cristiani et al.Currently, vehicles have a very large range of sensors and actuators, capable of not only sensing the condition of vehicles but also the environment around them. The information from these sensors can be used for various services in which they can bring greater comfort, safety and entertainment to the passengers and conductors of the vehicle. However, the great challenge lies … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 7 · 5 Jul 2019 · 7,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsModeling of a Dynamic Interaction of Motor Transport and Natural Systems in Order to Minimize the Risks of Project and Management DecisionsL. G. Gagarina, D. N. Kavtaradze, A. A. Mordovin et al.Fundamental tasks for the problem of scientific support for the design of transport infrastructure in the ecosystem splits are analyzed. New aspects of simulational application in dynamic interaction of motor transport and natural systems are considered. Method for simulational studies is analyzed. The problems and advantages of the simulation of complex systems are investigated. Mathematical model of the transport infrastructure … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Oct 2014 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the 16-20 February 2025 Damaging Heavy Rainfall in BotswanaOliver MosesHeavy rainfall that occurred from 16-20 February 2025 over most of Botswana caused, for example, flash flooding, fatalities, and widespread displacement, with the most severe impacts in the Gaborone-Mochudi region in the southeastern parts of the country. The drivers of this event are poorly understood; hence, this study analyses the rainfall characteristics using CHIRPS and station data. It also analyses … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 24 Aug 2026 · 1,111 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUbiquitous Health Monitoring Systems: Addressing Security ConcernsMahmoud Elkhodr, Seyed Shahrestani, Hon CheungProblem statement: It is important to secure the transmission of patient’s EHR in remote health monitoring systems. Security is among the main issues that need to be realized for the adaption of this monitoring technology. The face of healthcare is changing as ubiquitous computing technologies are being incorporated into the existing infrastructure. We specify the requirements, needed security mechanism, outstanding … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 4 Aug 2011 · 7,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRoad Transport Congestion Costs Calculations Adaptation to Engineering ApproachMarjan Lep, Beno MesarecThe article represents so called "engineering" approach for computing the total road transport congestion costs. According to economic welfare theory, the total costs of transport congestion are defined as dead weight loss (DWL) of infrastructure use. With a set of equations DWL could be formulated in a mathematical way. Because such form of equation is not directly applicable for concrete … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcological Sanitation in Morocco Promotion of the Urine-Diversion Dehydration Toilets-Case of Dayet IfrahYoussef Abarghaz, M. Mustapha Mahi, Mme Christine Werner et al.Problem statement: Most of people in rural areas in Morocco don’t have adequate systems of collection, evacuation and transport of black and gray water. They simply defecate in nature. There is a huge demand, which cannot possibly be met by conventional sanitation systems due to the enormous costs of the pipe network, lack of water and serious environmental drawbacks in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Wall Roughness and Concentration of Clay on Erosion in the Hole Erosion TestKissi Benaissa, Parron Vera Miguel Angel, Rubio Cintas Maria Dolores et al.Problem statement: Internal soil erosion is a real threat for hydraulic infrastructures. In its final stage it develops in piping involving the formation and progression of a continuous void inside the soil between the upstream and downstream sides. The hole erosion test was introduced to characterize kinematics of piping in terms of the time left to rupture. Actual modeling approaches … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2010 · 8,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater in the Urban Environment: Management Needs and Planning StrategiesStefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaProblem statement: Over the past thirty years urban transformations, such as urbanization, suburbanization, dis-urbanization and re-urbanization processes, have modified the subsurface conditions of Torino (NW Italy). In order to contribute to the solution of the problems concerning groundwater the conceptual model for the groundwater flow system, the schematization of the aquifers boundaries and the estimation of basic hydrogeological parameters are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,659 accessesView PDFCite
