Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,219 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analysis of Teaching Styles in Primary and Secondary School Teachers based on the Theory of Multiple IntelligencesTajularipin Sulaiman, Aminuddin Hassan, Hor Yen YiProblem statement: The practice of contemporary teaching methods that looked into student diversity had started to dominant most classrooms. In recent years, teachers had adopted a multiple intelligences approach in teaching to meet the needs of a wider range of students. Objective of the present study was to determine the Multiple Intelligence (MI) profile and teaching styles of primary and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 9,843 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWall Shear Stress Distribution in Patient Specific Coronary Artery BifurcationVahab Dehlaghi, Frank GijsenProblem statement: Atherogenesis is affected by hemodynamic parameters, such as wall shear stress and wall shear stress spatial gradient. These parameters are largely dependent on the geometry of arterial tree. Arterial bifurcations contain significant flow disturbances. Approach: The effects of branch angle and vessel diameter ratio at the bifurcations on the wall shear stress distribution in the coronary arterial tree … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,365 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeographic Information System-Allocation Model for Forest Path: A Case Study in Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve, MalaysiaI. Mohd Hasmadi, H. Z. Pakhriazad, F. S. MohamadProblem statement: Forest road planning requires a host of information, particularly the availability of spatial and non-spatial data. The requirement of a planning system or tools to gather, integrate and manipulate all data is essential. The ability of Geographic Information System (GIS) to integrate such massive information and develop a spatial model of earth features will lead to time and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,014 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLong-term Effect of Conventional and No-Tillage Production Systems on Nitrous Oxide Fluxes from Corn (Zea mays L.) Field in Southwestern QuebecAbdirashid Elmi, Bano Mehdi, Chandra Madramootoo et al.Problem statement: There is a growing trend in the adoption of conservation tillage as an alternative to conventional tillage farming system. Implications of this agricultural management shift with respect to nitrous oxide (N2O) emission, which has been a topic of intense research for the past few decades, is not yet completely understood. Approach: This study was conducted on a 2.4 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,016 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Liquefaction Return Period for Bangalore Based on Standard Penetration Test Data: Performance Based ApproachK. S. Vipin, T. G. SitharamProblem statement: The conventional liquefaction evaluation is based on a deterministic approach. However in this method the uncertainty in the earthquake loading is not properly taken into account. However recent research in this field indicates that this uncertainty in the earthquake loading has to be considered in the liquefaction potential evaluation. Moreover the evaluation of liquefaction return period is not … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,741 accessesView PDF Cite
