Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEarthquake Airbags, New Devices to Save Lives in Earthquakes, Tornados and Similar Disasters Resulting from Building CrashesAmir Hashem Shahidi BonjarEarthquake Airbag (EA) is a new terminology being introduced for the earthquake literature of the world. According to literature surveys, this terminology has not been used previously. Based on many scientific reports, fatality rates are lower in vehicles equipped with airbags than unequipped ones. Accordingly, it was postulated that similar structures can be adopted in buildings to protect people and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInverse Discrete Fourier Transform-Discrete Fourier Transform Techniques for Generating and Receiving Spectrally Efficient Frequency Division Multiplexing SignalsSahmed IdarwazehProblem statement: Spectrally Efficient Frequency Division Multiplexing (SEFDM) system promises bandwidth savings by multiplexing overlapped non-orthogonal sub-carriers. However, the loss of orthogonality results in increasing the complexity of generation and detection of the signal. In this work, we propose simple framework for the generation of the SEFDM signal based on the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT). Approach: This study further … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Jul 2012 · 8,310 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Aspiration for Becoming a Celebrity or Hero: A Comparative Study Across the United States, Iran, and AfghanistanJeremy Grabbe, Amir Mostafa AhadiThe present study examined cross-cultural differences in the desire to become a celebrity or a hero across samples from the United States, Iran, and Afghanistan. Building on prior findings that individuals in the United States may prefer heroism over celebrity status, the current study explored whether this pattern generalizes across differing cultural contexts. Participants completed the Celebrity Attitude Scale Brief … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 15 Aug 2026 · 1,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrop Disease Detection via an Improved Residual NetworkGuolin Chen, Weifeng Liu, Xinyu Zou, Xiaoxia LiDeep learning has shown substantial potential across many domains, and crop disease detection is no exception. This study investigates the application of deep learning to crop disease detection, systematically evaluating the performance of convolutional neural networks of different depths. Building on the classical ResNet-50 as the base model, we introduce a Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) attention mechanism to enhance feature extraction. The … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2026 · 898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKSWN (Kannada SentiWordNet): Developing a Sentiment Lexicon for Kannada using Translation and Word Embedding TechniquesRashmi Kariganuru Bheemarao, Hassan Sadashiva Guruprasad, Shambhavi Bangalore RaviOpinion Mining has gained significant attention in recent years, especially due to the enormous growth of online content generation. However, finding the opinions expressed in comments and reviews is highly challenging in Indian regional languages due to the lack of annotated datasets. Opinion mining has predominantly been conducted in English, with recent efforts extending to Hindi and other languages. A … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 6 · 4 Jul 2025 · 3,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Peace and Security in Africa: Strategy for Attainment of Agenda 2063 of the African UnionOsimen Goddy Uwa, Emeka Charles IlohTheincidence of violent conflict and insecurity in Africa is evident and apparent.Armed conflicts have become a regular realism in Africa for so long and thecontinent is predominantly conflict-prone and has also accommodated more thanone-third of international armed conflicts in the last few years. Theresurgence of conflict in Africa after the Cold War is mostly worrisome and disturbing.Despite these challenges and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 19 Sep 2022 · 6,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Assumption Regarding the way Matter is Constituted and Structured from LightFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe paper briefly presents some basic ideas on how matter is constituted and structured, based on permanent light as intrinsic energy. The fact that photons cannot be stored directly inside matter has not prevented it from having multiple hearts of energy springing from light, in the form of positive and negative electrical charges, which form the energy base of matter … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2022 · 6,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Characterization of an Eco Conce Based on Lateritic Gravel, Millet Pods and CementDjossou Ayihaou Armand, Doko Kouandété Valéry, Wade Doukago Yacoubou Soumanou et al.To simultaneously meet the need of thermal confort and living environment protection, vegetable biomass valorisation in building sector is of particular importance. In this context, the main objective of this study is to produce a lightweight composite concrete based on millet pods and lateritic gravel with a cement matrix for use in buildings to help improve thermal comfort and protect … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 16 Sep 2021 · 6,489 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLand-Cover Removal and Gully Development in Southeast Nigeria: A 30-Year Analysis with Pixel and OBIA Approaches in JuxtapositionSylvanus IroIn this study a study of gully erosion in southeast Nigeria is presented. The study of gully development on a regional scale is currently undermined by the inherent costs associated with consistent field monitoring and the lack of historic measurements to perform time series analysis. As a result, there are very few studies which implement long term analyses of gullies … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2020 · 7,383 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NOVEL PRESSURIZED ZONAL MODEL USING THE MOMENTUM EQUATIONYao Yu, Ahmed Cherif MegriZonal models combine the simplicity of single and multi-zone models with the comprehensiveness of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and thus become a better substitute to predict detailed thermal and airflow behaviors in building. Based on a geometric partitioning of a room into a number of subzones, these models give more accurate and detailed results than the single or multi-zone … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2014 · 8,570 accessesView PDFCite
