In … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2011 · 7,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn-Plane Behavior of Infills using Glass Fiber Shear Connectors in Textile Reinforced Mortar (TRM) TechniqueFarhad Akhoundi, Graça Vasconcelos, Paulo LourençoMasonry has a widespread use in the construction of the buildings even in reinforced concrete or steel frames. Past earthquakes have demonstrated the vulnerability of masonry infills resulted in the human life losses and economic costs. Recently innovative strengthening techniques such as Textile Reinforced Mortar technique (TRM) is used for enhancing the seismic response of the infills. Different procedures were … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2018 · 9,087 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Toxic Effects of Topik80ec on Rabbit Testicular Morphometry and HistologySamia Rebahi, Alouani Abdelouahab, Meguini Mohamed Nadir et al.This study aimed to investigate the toxic impact of Topik80ec on rabbit testes through morphometric and histological analyses. Twenty-four adult male domestic rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) were used, where three experimental groups, G1, G2, and G3, were assigned and provided escalating dosages of Topik80 EC for a duration of four weeks, while one group served as the control group and received … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 14 Sep 2024 · 5,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScanning 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 accessIn the abstractPROGRESS OF BIOMATERIALS IN THE FIELD OF ORTHOPAEDICSD. Chandramohan, J. Bharanichandar, P. Karthikeyan et al.The aim of this study is to compare the metallic and natural fiber reinforced polymer composite bone plates used in humerus fractures. A 3D finite element model was developed to analyze the performance of both types of plates. This study proposed on fabrication of natural fiber powdered material (like Sisal (Agave sisalana), Banana (Musa sapientum) and Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa)) Reinforced … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 6 Feb 2014 · 7,589 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRooting Responses of Miracle Fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) Softwood Cuttings as Affected by Indole Butyric AcidXing Wei Chen, Thohirah Lee Abdullah, Nur Ashikin Psyquay Abdullah, Siti Aishah HassanLarge scale productions of miracle fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) faces some restrictions as the seeds are recalcitrant and propagation by cuttings is difficult to root. When grown from seed, miracle fruit takes 3 to 4 years to begin fruiting. A propagation technique by cuttings needs to be devised to produce early fruiting planting materials. However there has been no report on … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Dec 2012 · 10,062 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlexural 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
