Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsModeling Malaysia's Energy System: Some Preliminary ResultsAhmad Mohd. YusofProblem statement: The current dynamic and fragile world energy environment necessitates the development of new energy model that solely caters to analyze Malaysia’s energy scenarios. Approach: The model is a network flow model that traces the flow of energy carriers from its sources (import and mining) through some conversion and transformation processes for the production of energy products to final … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 13 Aug 2011 · 7,250 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Roofing Tiles Support Made from Bituminous PlywoodOuro–Djobo Samah, Sinko Banakinao, Komlan Lolo, Kodjo AttipouIn this study, a new design of roof support was investigated to improve the system of roof coverings with roofing tiles. Usually, wood frames or slabs are often used as support for roofing tiles, which presents many disadvantages such as the expensive cost of the slabs and sometimes inefficient Corresponding wood frames. The new design proposed in this study uses … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 19 Sep 2022 · 6,370 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructure of a Photovoltaic Electric LocomotiveFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe paper proposes to start studies at the global level for the implementation of photovoltaic electric locomotives. The question the author asks is why such trains have not been implemented so far, is there no interest in such a thing? This may avoid the current rush to implement 5G technologies in an already extremely dangerous form for humanity, the rush … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 16 Nov 2019 · 7,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermo-Acoustic Water Analyzer in Hydrocarbon Emulsions with Kalman FilterMohammad A. Al-Khedher, Tariq M. Younes, Mohammad A.K. AliaProblem statement: Water detection in hydrocarbon emulsions represents a serious challenge in petroleum production industry. The elemenation of measurment noises is also desired. Approach: In this study, a systematic and an applicable method of water detection in hydrocarbon emulsion is achieved using thermoacoustic effect. A Kalman filter is applied to correct measurement errors and to improve accuracy. Results: The study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 6 Mar 2012 · 7,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrocarbon Biodegrading Potentials of a Proteus vulgaris Strain Isolated from Fish SamplesPatience O. Olajide, L. B. OgbeifunA Proteus vulgaris bacterium SR-1 was isolated from a freshly killed fish sample collected close to the point of crude oil spill in the Niger Delta region, Nigeria. Problem statement: The application of native bacterial species in bioremediation processes has long been desired, because they would be cost effective and efficient in terms of acclimation time. The ability to isolate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,277 accessesView PDFCite
