PETROGENESIS AND ORIGIN OF THE CHENAR GRANITOID STOCK, NW OF KERMAN, IRAN: EVIDENCE OF NEOTETHYS SUBDUCTION RELATED ARC MAGMATISM

The lower to middle Miocene Chenar granitoid stock, a part of Central Iranian volcanic belt, is intruded into Eocene volcano-sedimentary complex in northwestern Kerman in south Central Iran. The Chenar granitoid stock consists mainly of coarse to medium grain granodiorite and monzogranite with subordinate tonalite and syenogranite. Alkali granites as aplitic veins and quartz dioritic dykes freq...

Möbius Functions on Rooted Forests and Their Applications to Faigle-Kern's Dual Greedy Polyhedra

A study of the tectonic origin and the source of the clastic sediments of the Miankuhi formation in the Tarik Dareh region (Torbat Jam, NE Iran)

   The study area is located in the northeast of Iran. Miankuhi Formation is 500m thick and comprises homogeneous shales, brown granular sandstone and siltstone. In this study, 45 samples were taken from Miankuhi shales and sandstones in order to determine their tectonic origin by using a polarizing microscope. Samples were analysed by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) method to determine their chemical...

Flow Pattern Identification and Pressure Drop Calculation for Gas-Liquid Flow in a Horizontal Pipeline

Two phase gas-liquid flow pattern in a horizontal pipeline is predicted very accurately using a newly-developed analytical relation. The pattern identification is based on one of the most widely used graphs, the Baker diagram, modified in a way that compensates for the unrealistic oversimplifications of recent works. The Kern's method of pressure drop calculation is used to obtain the frict...

The Petrology and Geochemistry of Granitoid Rocks of Troud Area in South-West of Shahrood

The area of study is located 120 Km north-east of Shahrood city. In terms of structure and geological classification, this area is located in the northern part of central Iran zone. Granitoids of Troud ranging from monzonite to granite. The main minerals of granitoids are quartz, plagioclase, and orthose. The accessory minerals are biotite, hornblende, sphene, and opaque minerals. Various textu...
