Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRational Mix Design Approach for High Strength Concrete Using Sand with very High Fineness ModulusKwan Wai Hoe, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Production of concrete is always deal with inconsistency. Sources of variation like materials from different geographical basis, mix design method, fineness of aggregates and so on will attribute to different level of achievement of the concrete. Even though researcher had verified that higher fineness modulus of sand would yield better performance for the concrete, but so far there … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,217 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMechanical Strength and Durability Properties of High Performance Mortar Containing Densified Silica FumeCheah Chee Ban, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Numerous data and information on pozzolanic reaction and microfiller properties of silica fume were derived from laboratory investigation on silica fume in undensified form. Currently, due to low bulk density of undensified silica fume which poses problem in transportation and handling of the material, silica fume are commercially supplied in densified form. Densification process used to increase bulk … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractionated Distillation Behavior and Aroma Component Enrichment of Citronella Oil (Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt) from West SumatraDaimon Syukri, Anni Faridah, Bayu Indra Lesmana et al.This study aimed to separate the constituent components of citronella oil into several fractions with high purity and to identify the characteristics of the resulting fractions. The research was conducted using an exploratory approach to investigate the fractionation behavior of citronella oil more deeply. The raw materials were citronella oils obtained from three regions in West Sumatra: Batusangkar, Solok, and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMunicipal Solid Waste Generation and its Management, a Growing Threat to Fragile Ecosystem in Kashmir HimalayaRouf Ahmad Bhat, Moonisa Aslam Dervash, Mohammad Aneesul Mehmood, Khalid Rehman HakeemThe Kashmir valley is facing tremendous pressure associated with problems of growing waste generation. Thus, the aim of the present research was to generate baseline data for adequate waste management and associated problems. For the collection of samples, 20 houses were randomly selected in the main town from each district and segregated into compostable, recyclable, combustible and inert categories. All … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 13 Jan 2018 · 9,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Interaction between the Lining of a TBM Tunnel and the Ground Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe support used when a tunnel is excavated by a shielded TBM is complex because it consists of two different materials: A concrete segmental lining and a filler annulus between the lining and the tunnel wall. A detailed analysis of the behavior of such a support system requires a three-dimensional numerical modeling and should also consider the presence of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Jun 2015 · 7,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEco-Friendly Synthesis of Fucoidan-Stabilized Gold NanoparticlesKriengsak Lirdprapamongkol, Warangkana Warisnoicharoen, Suwicha Soisuwan, Jisnuson SvastiProblem statement: Metallic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are widely used in many applications including medical, pharmaceutical, diagnostics and sensors. The chemical synthesis of AuNPs normally requires synthetic materials which might cause the toxicological concerns. The use of naturally occurring materials like fucoidans for successful synthesis of AuNPs is of interests. Approach: Fucoidans as sulfated polysaccharides from marine algae Cladosiphon okamuranus (o-fucoidan) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrack Growth in Concrete Gravity Dams Based on Discrete Crack MethodA.R. Lohrasbi, R. AttarnejadSeepage is the most parameter in water management safety and in stable agricultural. This seepage is passed through the cracks that are present to some degree in hydraulic structures. They may exist as basic defects in the constituent materials or may be induced in construction or during service life. To avoid such failure in concrete dams, safety would be an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
