چکیده
Introduction Throughout history, there has never been such a plethora of wound treatment choices and it is now an exciting and expanding field of care. However, wound management is often undertaken by health-care professionals who have not received sufficient training in this specialty (King, 2000) and this undoubtedly means that dressings are sometimes used inadvisably or inappropriately (Bux and Malhi, 1996). Each dressing has been specifically designed for a purpose with the primary function being to prepare the wound bed for healing; this requires knowledge of the complications and physiological responses that occur in a wound with each different dressing type. One of the common complications of wound healing is pain which remains an integral part of wound diagnosis as well as local wound management (Sibbald, 2003) and, unfortunately, one area which is still neglected is pain control (Gould, 1999). ActiFormCool is a hydrogel sheet dressing that is set to address this problem of pain.

The sewer layout in flat areas significantly influences the construction and operational costs as well as reliability of the network performance. To find an optimum design of sewer networks for flat areas, this study presents a multi-objective optimization problem with the objective functions of 1- the cost and 2- the reliability. The reliability criterion is defined as the effect of a clogging...
