The Characteristics of Distinctive Urban Elements in Citizens’ Cognitive Maps (Case Study: The City of Isfahan)

Over the last few decades, some newly developed areas in the city of Isfahan have had serious problems in providing such urban design qualities as legibility, and this has led to various problems for the citizens like difficulty in way-finding, orientation or addressing. In order to solve this problem and enrich the legibility of newly developed areas, planners and designers should utilize appr...

Investigation of Improvement in Georeferencing of Urban Analog Maps using the Geometric Elements and Genetic Algorithm

A large number of civil registries are available as analog maps that require georeferencing. Besides the quality of the analog maps and control points, the algorithm used for georeferencing also affects the accuracy of the map and the carried out geometrical calculations which indicates the need to study modern Georeferencing Methods. This requires the adoption of georeferencing optimization mo...

Water balance and hyponatraemia.

Molecular Physiology of Water Balance.

To the Editor: In their review article on water balance, Knepper et al. (April 2 issue)1 discuss water channels (aquaporins) in renal tubular cells. They omit mention of the critical role played by aquaporin-1 in microvascular endothelia. In the renal microvasculature, endothelial aquaporin-1 mediates the osmotic water efflux across descending vasa recta and is required for regulation of medull...
