Properties of natural organisms and its use in technological architecture
This research aimed at identifying natural organisms and their properties in the technological samples of contemporary architecture. The main questionswere: "Which properties of natural organisms are effective on the technological works of contemporary architecture?" and "How much do they affect?"This descriptive-analytic research was conducted using archival method to access the theoretical...

متن کاملAcute toxicity of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in Daphnia magna and Pontogammarus maeoticus
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (nTiO2) are the world's second most widely consumed nanomaterial and large quantities of this material enters the aquatic ecosystem annually. Therefore, understanding the effects of nTiO2 on aquatic organisms is very important. The present study used Daphnia magna as a model freshwater organism and Pontogammarus maeoticus as a brackish water organism to evaluate s...
متن کاملSimulation of growth performance Alburnoides eichwaldii (De Filippi, 1863) using DEB standard model in Zarrin-Gol and Kaboudwal Rivers (Golestan Province)
Dynamic energy Budget (DEB) theory describes the rate of energy absorb by living organisms and use it for body protection, growth, and reproduction. The present study was performed on Alburnoides eichwaldii in Zarrin-Gol and Kaboudwal rivers (Golestan province). The results showed that the DEB growth model in the two rivers and the allocation of energy fraction for body maintenance (κ) was more...
متن کاملA two-stage mathematical model for evacuation planning and relief logistics in a response phase
Crises and natural disasters are always existed in human history, and continue to exist in the future; therefore, people are always affected by these natural disasters. Hence, evacuation planning after natural disasters (e.g., earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, fire, storms, warfare and nuclear explosions) is vital. Given that natural disasters cause irreparable financial loss and the loss of life ...
