Assessment of reinforced concrete building with soil structure interaction effect under vertical earthquake
(Trans Tech Publications, 2016)
In past investigation, most of studies on seismic analysis for soil structure interaction effect are small and generally design building were considered to be fixed at their support. In actual condition, flexibility of the ...
Catalytic thermolysis in treating Cibacron Blue in aqueous solution: Kinetics and degradation pathway
(Elsevier Ltd., 2016-03-01)
A thermal degradation pathway of the decolourisation of Reactive Cibacron Blue F3GA (RCB) in aqueous solution through catalytic thermolysis is established. Catalytic thermolysis is suitable for the removal of dyes from ...
Isolation and characterization of a molybdenum-reducing and amide-degrading burkholderia SP. Strain neni-11 in soils from west sumatera, Indonesia
(Institute of Integrative Omics and Applied Biotechnology (IIOAB), 2016-01-01)
A molybdenum-reducing bacterium isolated from contaminated soil was able to utilize acrylamide as the electron donor source, and was able utilize acrylamide, acetamide and propionamide for growth. Reduction was optimal at ...
The use of lates calcarifer as a biomarker for heavy metals detection
(Springer Milan, 2016-01-21)
Fish are ubiquitous organisms that have many features that designate their potential as a biomarker of heavy metals pollution. Thus, an investigation was done to detect the effect of heavy metals on cholinesterase (ChE) ...
Batch and continuous thermophilic hydrogen fermentation of sucrose using anaerobic sludge from palm oil mill effluent via immobilisation technique
(Elsevier BV, 2016-02-01)
This study aimed to investigate the feasibility to use immobilised cells on granular activated carbon (GAC) operated in fifteen cycles of repeated batch mode for enhancement of biohydrogen production under thermophilic ...
Landslide simulation using limit equilibrium and finite element method
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd., 2016)
Slope stability analysis is one of the ancient tasks in the geotechnical engineering. There are two major methods; limit equilibrium method (LEM) and finite element method (FEM) that were used to analyze the factor of ...
Optimisation of biodegradation conditions for cyanide removal by Serratia marcescens strain AQ07 using one-factor-at-a-time technique and response surface methodology
(Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, 2016-03-12)
Gold mining companies are known to use cyanide to extract gold from minerals. The indiscriminate use of cyanide presents a major environmental issue. Serratia marcescens strain AQ07 was found to have cyanide-degrading ...
Experimental study of slurry infiltrated fiber reinforced concrete
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2016)
Slurry Infiltrated Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SIFCON) is a relatively new high performance and advanced material and can be considered as a special type of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC). The hooked-end shape steel ...
Response surface methodology (RSM) in fabrication of nanostructured silicon
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2016)
In this paper, a respond surface methodology (RSM) model has been developed using three levels Box-Benkhen experimental design (BBD) technique to study the influence of several metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) process ...
Foam filling effectiveness of conical aluminium tubes under dynamic axial and oblique loading
(Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN), 2016-06-01)
This paper presents the behaviour of empty and foam-filled conical aluminium tubes under dynamic axial and oblique loading. The effect of foam filling on the energy absorption for variation in geometrical parameter and ...
