</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> This study was conducted on representative and contrasting soils of arid regions. It focuses on the compared influence of two organic fertilizers: poultry manure (PM) and bovine manure (BM) on improving the microbial functioning of non-saline (SS) and saline (SSS) soils, in particularly, the process of mineralization of nitrogen and carbon. The microbiological activity was estimated by respirometric test (CO2鈥揅 emissions) and the extraction of two forms of mineral nitrogen (NH4+-N and NO3--N). Thus, after 56 days of incubation under controlled conditions (28 degrees and 80 per cent of the field capacity), the two types of manures showed that the mineralization activity varies according to type of soil and the organic substrate itself. However, the highest cumulative quantities of CO2鈥揅, NH4+鈥揘 and NO3-鈥揘 obtained at the end of incubation were recorded in non-saline (SS) soil treated with poultry manure with 1173.4, 4.26 and 8.40 mg/100 g of dry soil, respectively. The reductions in rates of release of CO2鈥揅 and of nitrification under saline conditions were 21 and 36, 78 %, respectively. The influence of organic substratum on the microbial density shows a stimulating effect on all microbial groups studied. The whole results show the usefulness of two types of manures for the improvement of the microbiological functioning of arid soils. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Salinity" title="Salinity">Salinity</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Organic%20matter" title=" Organic matter"> Organic matter</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Microorganisms" title=" Microorganisms"> Microorganisms</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Mineralization" title=" Mineralization"> Mineralization</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Nitrogen" title=" Nitrogen"> Nitrogen</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Carbon" title=" Carbon"> Carbon</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Arid%20regions" title=" Arid regions"> Arid regions</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/21670/effect-of-organic-fertilizers-on-the-improvement-of-soil-microbiological-functioning-under-saline-conditions-of-arid-regions-impact-on-carbon-and-nitrogen-mineralization" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/21670.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">280</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">61</span> Physico-Chemical and Microbial Changes of Organic Fertilizers after Compositing Processes under Arid Conditions</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Oustani%20Mabrouka">Oustani Mabrouka</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Halilat%20Med%20Tahar"> Halilat Med Tahar</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> The physico-chemical properties of poultry droppings indicate that this waste can be an excellent way to enrich the soil with low fertility that is the case in arid soils (low organic matter content), but its concentrations in some microbial and chemical components make them potentially dangerous and toxic contaminants if they are used directly in fresh state. On other hand, the accumulation of plant residues in the crop areas can become a source of plant disease and affects the quality of the environment. The biotechnological processes that we have identified appear to alleviate these problems. It leads to the stabilization and processing of wastes into a product of good hygienic quality and high fertilizer value by the composting test. In this context, a trial was conducted in composting operations in the region of Ouargla located in southern Algeria. Composing test was conducted in a completely randomized design experiment. Three mixtures were prepared, in pits of 1 m3 volume for each mixture. Each pit is composed by mixture of poultry droppings and crushed plant residues in amount of 40 and 60% respectively: C1: Droppings + Straw (P.D +S) , C2: Poultry Droppings + Olive Wastes (P.D+O.W) , C3: Poultry Droppings + Date palm residues (P.D+D.P). Before and after the composting process, physico-chemical parameters (temperature, moisture, pH, electrical conductivity, total carbon and total nitrogen) were studied. The stability of the biological system was noticed after 90 days. The results of physico-chemical and microbiological compost obtained from three mixtures: C1: (P.D +S) , C2: (P.D+O.W) and C3: (P.D +D.P) shows at the end of composting process, three composts characterized by the final products were characterized by their high agronomic and environmental interest with a good physico chemical characteristics in particularly a low C/N ratio with 15.15, 10.01 and 15.36 % for (P.D + S), (P.D. + O.W) and (P.D. +D.P), respectively, reflecting a stabilization and maturity of the composts. On the other hand, a significant increase of temperature was recorded at the first days of composting for all treatments, which is correlated with a strong reduction of the pathogenic micro flora contained in poultry dropings. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Arid%20environment" title="Arid environment">Arid environment</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Composting" title=" Composting"> Composting</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Date%20palm%20residues" title=" Date palm residues"> Date palm residues</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Olive%20wastes" title=" Olive wastes"> Olive wastes</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=pH" title=" pH"> pH</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Pathogenic%20microorganisms" title=" Pathogenic microorganisms"> Pathogenic microorganisms</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Poultry%20Droppings" title=" Poultry Droppings"> Poultry Droppings</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Straw" title=" Straw"> Straw</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/21679/physico-chemical-and-microbial-changes-of-organic-fertilizers-after-compositing-processes-under-arid-conditions" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/21679.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">235</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">60</span> The Effect of Soil in the Allelopathic Potential of Artemisia herba-alba and Oudneya africana Crude Powder on Growth of Weeds</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Salhi%20Nesrine">Salhi Nesrine</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Salama%20M.%20El-Darier"> Salama M.

The experimental findings have reported that the donor species crude powder concentrations were suppressing to shoot length (SL), root length (RL), fresh and dry weight of shoot and root (SFw, RFw, SDw and RDw, respectively and the leaf number (LN)) in both soil types and caused a gradual reduction particularly when they are high. However, the reduction degree was varied and species, concentration dependent. The suppressive effect of all the eight donors on the two weedy species was in the following order Bromus tectorum> Melilotus indica. Generally, the growth parameters of two recipient species were significantly decreased with the increase of each of the donor species crude powder concentration levels. Concerning the type of sol the t-test indicated that the difference was insignificant between clay and sandy soils. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=allelopathy" title="allelopathy">allelopathy</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=soil" title=" soil"> soil</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Artemisia%20herba-alba" title=" Artemisia herba-alba"> Artemisia herba-alba</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Oudneya%20africana" title=" Oudneya africana"> Oudneya africana</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=growth" title=" growth"> growth</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=weeds" title=" weeds "> weeds </a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/1336/the-effect-of-soil-in-the-allelopathic-potential-of-artemisia-herba-alba-and-oudneya-africana-crude-powder-on-growth-of-weeds" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/1336.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">361</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">59</span> Simulation of Channel Models for Device-to-Device Application of 5G Urban Microcell Scenario</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=H.%20Zormati">H.

The results are estimated to be used in the selection of the most advantageous configuration from an exergetic view point. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=vapor%20compression" title="vapor compression">vapor compression</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=exergy" title=" exergy"> exergy</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=destruction" title=" destruction"> destruction</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=efficiency" title=" efficiency"> efficiency</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=R134a" title=" R134a"> R134a</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/39655/exergetic-comparison-between-three-configurations-of-two-stage-vapor-compression-refrigeration-systems" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/39655.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">385</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">54</span> Designing a Low Power Consumption Mote in Wireless Sensor Network</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Saidi%20Nabiha">Saidi Nabiha</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Khaled%20Zaatouri"> Khaled Zaatouri</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Walid%20%20Fajraoui"> Walid Fajraoui</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Tahar%20Ezzeddine"> Tahar Ezzeddine</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> The market of Wireless Sensor Network WSN has a great potential and development opportunities.

This antenna with dual band can function for many communication systems as automobile or radar. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=dual%20band" title="dual band">dual band</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=enlargement%20of%20bandwidth" title=" enlargement of bandwidth"> enlargement of bandwidth</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=miniaturized%20antennas" title=" miniaturized antennas"> miniaturized antennas</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=printed%20antenna" title=" printed antenna"> printed antenna</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/30092/optimization-of-dual-band-antenna-on-silicon-substrate" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/30092.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">358</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">43</span> Optimized Cluster Head Selection Algorithm Based on LEACH Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Wided%20Abidi">Wided Abidi</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Tahar%20Ezzedine"> Tahar Ezzedine</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) has been considered as one of the effective hierarchical routing algorithms that optimize energy and prolong the lifetime of network. Since the selection of Cluster Head (CH) in LEACH is carried out randomly, in this paper, we propose an approach of electing CH based on LEACH protocol. In other words, we present a formula for calculating the threshold responsible for CH election. In fact, we adopt three principle criteria: the remaining energy of node, the number of neighbors within cluster range and the distance between node and CH. Simulation results show that our proposed approach beats LEACH protocol in regards of prolonging the lifetime of network and saving residual energy. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=wireless%20sensors%20networks" title="wireless sensors networks">wireless sensors networks</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=LEACH%20protocol" title=" LEACH protocol"> LEACH protocol</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=cluster%20head%20election" title=" cluster head election"> cluster head election</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=energy%20efficiency" title=" energy efficiency"> energy efficiency</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/68326/optimized-cluster-head-selection-algorithm-based-on-leach-protocol-for-wireless-sensor-networks" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/68326.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">329</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">42</span> Enhancement of Tribological Behavior for Diesel Engine Piston of Solid Skirt by an Optimal Choice of Interface Material</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=M.%20Amara">M.

This friction can also cause damage to the piston material. Thus, the choice of an optimal material for the piston is necessary to improve the elastohydrodynamical contacts of the piston. In this study, to achieve this objective, an elastohydrodynamical lubrication model that satisfies the best tribological behavior of the piston with the optimum choice of material is developed. Several aluminum alloys composed of different components are studied in this simulation. An application is made on the piston 60 x 120 mm Diesel engine type F8L413 currently mounted on Deutz trucks TB230 by using different aluminum alloys where alloys based on aluminum-silicon have better tribological performance. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=EHD%20lubricated%20contacts" title="EHD lubricated contacts">EHD lubricated contacts</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=friction" title=" friction"> friction</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=properties%20of%20materials" title=" properties of materials"> properties of materials</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=tribological%20performance" title=" tribological performance"> tribological performance</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/49879/enhancement-of-tribological-behavior-for-diesel-engine-piston-of-solid-skirt-by-an-optimal-choice-of-interface-material" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/49879.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">272</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">41</span> The Fluid Limit of the Critical Processor Sharing Tandem Queue</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Amal%20Ezzidani">Amal Ezzidani</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Abdelghani%20Ben%20Tahar"> Abdelghani Ben Tahar</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Mohamed%20Hanini"> Mohamed Hanini</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> A sequence of finite tandem queue is considered for this study.

Yet, there were some American presidents who succeeded, and there were some presidents who failed.The task of this research work is to depict the postwar period from 1945 to 1969. Some light will be shed on the main causes that led to the delay of many programs from 1945 to 1960.

The analysis of experimentally obtained modes of failure confirms, generally, that the ruin of the structure occurs essentially by punching. Accordingly, our work is directed to the analysis of the behavior of reinforced slabs towards the punching. An experimental investigation is realized. For that purpose, a set of trial specimens was made. The reinforced specimens are subjected to an essay of punching, by making vary the direction of the eccentricity. The first experimental results show that the ultimate loads, as well as the transition from the flexion failure mode to the punching failure mode, are governed essentially by the eccentricity. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=composites" title="composites">composites</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=concrete%20slabs" title=" concrete slabs"> concrete slabs</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=failure" title=" failure"> failure</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=laminate" title=" laminate"> laminate</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=punching" title=" punching"> punching</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/47009/influence-of-the-eccentricity-of-a-concentrated-load-on-the-behavior-of-multilayers-slabs" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/47009.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">239</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">37</span> Prediction of the Behavior of 304L Stainless Steel under Uniaxial and Biaxial Cyclic Loading</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Aboussalih%20Amira">Aboussalih Amira</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Zarza%20Tahar"> Zarza Tahar</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Fedaoui%20Kamel"> Fedaoui Kamel</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Hammoudi%20Saleh"> Hammoudi Saleh</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> This work focuses on the simulation of the prediction of the behaviour of austenitic stainless steel (SS) 304L under complex loading in stress and imposed strain.

In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of aseismic bearings technique and understand the behavior of seismically isolated bridges by such devices a three-span continuous deck bridge made of reinforced concrete is considered. The bridge is modeled as a discrete model and the relative displacements of the isolation bearing are crucial from the design point of view of isolation system and separation joints at the abutment level. The systems presented here are passive control systems and the results of some important experimental tests are also included. The results show that the base shear in the piers is significantly reduced for the isolated system as compared to the non isolated system in the both directions of the bridge. This indicates that the use of aseismic systems is effective in reducing the earthquake response of the bridge. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a
