investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
investigating the integration of translation technologies into translation programs in iranian universities: basis for a syllabus design in translation technology
today, information technology and computers are indispensable tools of any profession and translation technologies have become an indispensable part of translator’s workstation. with the increasing demands for high productivity and speed as well as consistency and with the rise of new demands for translation and localization, it is necessary for translators to be familiar with market demands an...
The influence of engineering design considerations on species recruitment and succession on coastal defence structures
Engineering design considerations of artificial coastal structures were tested to resemble as far as possible the nearest natural equivalent habitat, ecologically valuable rocky shores, as a potential management option. Coastal areas around the world attract urbanisation but these transitional areas between sea and land are inherently vulnerable to risk of flooding and erosion. Thus hard struct...
متن کاملEcological limitations to the resilience of coral reefs 3
6 Abstract The decline of coral reefs has been broadly 7 attributed to human stressors being too strong and perva8 sive, whereas biological processes that may render coral 9 reefs fragile have been sparsely considered. Here we 10 review several ecological factors that can limit the ability 11 of coral reefs to withstand disturbance. These include: (1) 12 Many species lack the adaptive capacity ...
متن کاملEcological Health Assessment of the Surface Sediments of the Coral Reefs of Khark and Kharko Islands (Persian Gulf, Iran)
To assess the ecological risk of the coral reef habitats of Khark and Kharko islands in the Persian Gulf, (Bushehr province), the surface sediment samples were collected from seven stations, in September 2019. The islands have a great ecological value due to the presence of coral reefs. The amounts of potentially toxic elements, sediment texture, total organic matter, total phosphorus and total...
