Why Judaism and Islam Prohibit Eating Pork and Consuming Blood as a Food?
(Scientific Research, 2018-06)To date, many influential religious leaders from both Judaism and Islam have attempted to provide answers to the question of why both these religions prohibit eating pork. The most straightforward answer is that the Lord ... -
Why the Bible Cannot and Should Not Be Taken Literally
(Scientific Research, 2014-08)This paper argues that there are at least five reasons why the claim that the Bible is to be taken literally defies logic or otherwise makes no sense, and why literalists are in no position to claim that they have the ... -
A Wideband Circularly Polarized Patch Antenna for 60 GHz Wireless Communications
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)This paper presents the design of a fully packaged 60 GHz wideband patch antenna incorporating an air cavity and a fused silica superstrate. Circular polarization (CP) is realized by introducing a diagonal slot at the ... -
WiMAX System Simulation and Performance Analysis under the Influence of Jamming
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2010-07)This paper presents simulation of WiMAX based system under jamming. The performance of the system was found out to greatly differ with the use of different jamming signals, allowing central areas to be identified, where ... -
A Wireless Body Sensor Platform to Detect Progressive Deterioration in Musculoskeletal Systems
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013-03)Recent developments in technology have helped to reduce the physical size and weight of devices and opened up new opportunities for their application in delivering unobtrusive healthcare services. In particular, kinetic ... -
Wireless Hybrid QoS Architecture with an Enhancement of Fair Intelligent Congestion Control
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)More subtle and explicit QoS control mechanisms are required at the radio access level, even though the simple and scalable Differentiated Services (DiffServ) QoS control model is acceptable for the core of the network. ... -
A Wireless Sensor Network Solution for Precision Agriculture Based on Zigbee Technology
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2011-12)Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have attracted much atten tion in recent years. The potential applications of WSNs are immense. They are used for collecting, storing and sharing sensed data. WSNs have been used ... -
X-ray radiography investigation of structural conditions of Fe-15Cr-35Ni11W steel irradiated by ion-plasma fluxes
(Elsevier, 2017-08)It was found that structural-phase transformations induced by radiation in the highly doped heat resistant Fe-15Cr-35Ni-11W alloy under the effects of treatment with ion-plasma beams differ from the transformations in ... -
XRF Analysis of Heavy Metals for Surface Soil of Qarun Lake and Wadi El Rayan in Faiyum, Egypt
(Scientific Research, 2013-07)The environmental pollution with some heavy metals for twenty four surface soil samples collected from Qarun Lake and Wadi El Rayan region in Faiyum, Egypt utilizing X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy was measured. The ...
